 going back to censorship. So there are lots of different ways people use censorship. So for example, is something like self-censorship? Is that a valid concept? Yeah, I think it is. It can be used invalidly. It's valid. So again, if you go to the Danish cartoon crisis and the Danish newspaper is publishing these cartoons as a test, and it's a test, so they've heard from various people that there's an atmosphere of self-censorship that people won't write or publish, especially about Mohammed and depictions of Mohammed and so on. And if you ask, what is the reason why they won't do it? If it was just, look, a lot of people are going to tell us we're crazy. We're going to be socially ostracized and so on. So we're not going to pay that price. I don't regard that as self-censorship. It might be the reason they're not doing it, but I would not describe it as self-censorship. But if their reason is people are going to attack us and try to kill us and burn down our house and our newspaper and so on, and that's the reason we won't. And particularly, that's what's going to happen. And the government is not going to protect us. So we're not publishing these. That is self-censorship, and it's why censorship? Because it's, again, it's the government defaulting on its responsibility to protect your right to freedom of speech, and especially if it's an environment in which the government doesn't want. I mean, there's reasons to think in Europe. We don't want problems with Islam. So we're quite happy if people don't do this and why do they need to provoke and so on. So it's like, if they had the power to censor, they would stop people from doing this. And, oh, so we'll sort of turn a blind eye and not do very much to protect people, and that will make it go away. And then it becomes, yeah, this is akin to censorship. So self-censorship is not literally censorship, but there's something fundamentally similar about what is going on. What we need today, what I called a new intellectual, would be any man or woman who is willing to think. Meaning any man or woman who knows that man's life must be guided by reason, by the intellect, not by feelings, wishes, wins, or mystic revelations. Any man or woman who values his life and who does not want to give in to today's cult of despair, cynicism, and impotence, and does not intend to give up the world to the dark ages and to the role of the collectivist roads.
