Defending freedoms, exposing the excesses of power and authoritarian tendencies. ORIGINAL stories, BOLD insights, INDEPENDENT thinking. Visit www.freedom-research.org. ..... 21st century is witnessing a rekindled belief that the power of authorities should prevail over people's individual choices and principal intervention from power groups (both state and corporate) is indispensable in solving the problems of humankind. More restrictions, top-down subordinations and mandates are advocated to achieve progress ‘for the greater good’, ‘saving the planet’ etc. Mainstream groupthinking is increasingly used for swaying the prevailing mindsets and restricting free thought and speech, being driven by specific interests and ideologies. Those at odds with majority views, often wind up stigmatized or even expelled from public life, fired from their jobs etc. It seems that little has been learnt from the tragedies of the last century.
