Nelson Mandela's life falsified by mainstream media

Mainstream media commemorations of Nelson Mandela's life often falsify him, pretending that he stood for nonviolent resistance.

Mandela was right: nonviolence is not the only ethical way to resist oppression. Those oppressed with violence are entitled to fight back with violence. Of course, the founding fathers of the United States said the same thing about resistance to British oppression.

Here Mandela explains the ANC's motives for adopting first sabotage, then guerrilla warfare.

Chief among them was that the state's crackdown on dissent had closed off the possibility of nonviolent resistance.

We're supposed to be concerned about anonymous web sites because some of them distribute violent porn.

I don't want to watch violent porn, or violent non-porn, but neither should be censored.

I am surprised that the credit card payments can't be used to trace the business that runs the site.
