(56,094 posts)Too many think that is a quote by Voltaire. It is not. It is a quote by a convicted pedophile, who is a Holocaust-denying, anti-Semitic white supremacist!
The quote, which reads, To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize, was quickly identified by some users online as a quote by Kevin Alfred Strom. Reuters Fact Check

(28,948 posts)I thought amazingly meant you were surprised it was hidden, and I was also glad it was, so I'm sorry I read that wrong.
Pretty egregious considering the source and I hope everyone here sees that.

No one is allowed to criticize Trumplethinskin. Reporters, Judges, Democrats, protestors, networks, late-night hosts, colleges and universities, generals, musicians, athletes, tech corporations, even Congresscritters in his own party -- say one thing harsh about Trmp, and he comes after you, breaking every law necessary to do so.
I'd expect Strom to share a lot of characteristics with today's GOP -- and I suppose one of them should be the habit of projection, of accusing his "enemies" of all the crimes he himself has committed, or would like to commit. "Every accusation is a confession" with these people, and Strom, I'm sure, wants to forbid his opponents from publicly criticizing him or his cohorts just as Trmp (and Miller) does.
