“Security served as a pretext for canceling National Conservatism, with the language of safety masking what was ultimately a political decision.” Frank Furedi
Securitization & “safety” is always THE pathway to tyranny—to silence & disempower dissident minorities. politico.eu/article/cancel…

This is what freedom looks like! We are back for day 2 at National Conservatism. We at MCC Brussels will be fighting for freedom of speech in Brussels and the EU.

So well explained Jacob Reynolds: attempts to censor NatCon in Brussels a sign of European political elite running away from debating populist concerns eg on farming /net zero/border control etc Also noteworthy: use of favoured soft authoritarian excuse for cancel culture: safety
