Hi everybody, Dennis Prager and welcome to the FireSight Chat number 209.

Wow, I don't usually get it right. I usually ask Megan the arm and she gives me the answer.

Great to be with you.

Otto's here, though increasingly he leaves at the half hour mark because we only pay him

for a half hour. I'm not even annoyed with him, but that's now been his general modus

operandi. I don't know if you see, but Snoopy, a very rare moment. Snoopy is right beside

my legs here, between my legs on the ground. You got two for the price of one. Welcome to

the FireSight Chat where I talk completely spontaneously about things on my mind and then

take your questions from literally around the world.

A thought first about what is happening. I have here, the reason I'm holding the tablet,

is I'm looking at the list of things you can't say with regard to COVID or medicines or

a whole host of things that YouTube will remove you if you do say them. I just need you

to understand what the word misinformation has come to mean. There is such a thing as

misinformation. One cannot deny that. However, I'll give you an example. It was declared

misinformation less than a year ago if you said that COVID-19 began at a Chinese laboratory

in Wuhan, China. That was called misinformation. People were removed from Google or from

YouTube or from Instagram or from Twitter. Now it's not misinformation. It's a very difficult

thing to deal with when honest dissent is labeled misinformation, even if it has a great

deal of information. It says here, if you differ with the World Health Organization or

health authorities, then it's misinformation. This is the first time in the history of

medicine that that is the case. People laugh at the medieval church for persecuting Galileo.

The church said that what Galileo said was about the earth going around the sun was misinformation.
