Open letter to NZ nurses’ Facebook group: Reverse the ban on WSWS articles and criticisms of the union




The ILLIBERAL LIBERALS rarely reflect on the practical side of the free speech tradition . You might learn something new, something important. Banning ideas and opinions - not just bad manners - can only stupefy the greater community.
If your ideas are sound , what have you to fear from the free flow of ideas, opinions , and information ?
If CAPITALISM were so self-evidently rational and GOOD , why the need to balleyhoo it every minute of the day on radio , TV, the mainstream news media ?
There is a profound need for UNION DEMOCRACY . Too many " Johnny Friendly " unions . The boss will tell YOU what to think , how to vote, just WHO are the " friends of labor " ( the friends of " Johnny Friendly ", of course ! ) .
