On January 12, 1971, Archie Bunker walked through the front door of his home at 704 Houser Street for the first time and launched “All in the Family.” The album became a crossroads in the 1960s debate between counterculture and blue-collar, middle-class culture. Class families in the early 1970s.
The house at 704 Hauser Street is currently located within Stage 19 of the BlazeTV studios.
So why did we save it?
For the first time in television history, “All in the Family” genuine Bringing controversial themes directly to American audiences in their living rooms. Issues such as taxes, government, feminism, and racism were all considered too controversial for television. But “All in the Family” ran straight towards them.
Archie played the role of a blue-collar taxpayer who resists change. His son-in-law, Meathead, lived comfortably off his in-laws and played a left-wing freeloader who stayed at the university indefinitely. Both men landed jabs and got each other's points through, but then something happened that rarely happens anymore. conversation. That's why I felt the need to protect this set.
Can you imagine this today? We understand one side of the story, while others are monetized, shut down, or quickly labeled as “misinformation.” People are being vilified, deplatformed, and charged with compliance.
Have you heard the lyrics to “All in the Family”? Theme song?
There was no need for a welfare state. Everyone pulled their weight. Well, my old LaSalle ran great. Those were the days.
Is there any TV producer, actor, or director out there who would tolerate lyrics like this today?
Or what about these?
And you knew who you were then. Girls like girls and guys like men.
These lyrics make more sense now than they did in the 70s. Try saying that on YouTube without getting a strike or getting fired entirely.
The song continues like this.
People seemed satisfied. I paid $50 in rent. Freaks were in the circus tent… those were the days.
Oh, how the Hollywood powers that be have fallen. When you even come close to this kind of conversation, the groupthink of speech arbiters gets knocked down. Just ask people like Tim Allen, Roseanne Barr, Jon Voight, James Woods, Gina Carano, Stacey Dash, and Kirk Cameron.
The list gets even longer.How many more people in Hollywood have absolutely given up or given up? Forced into silence?
The conversation that used to take place in Archie and Edith Bunker's living room no longer takes place. No longer allowed. And things are about to get even worse.
I fear that 2024 will be the year that future generations look back and say, “That was the year the First Amendment was officially assassinated.'' The signs are everywhere.
Over the past few months, globalists and progressives have been on the attack.Ability to speak your mind and consume information I want you consuming is a direct threat to their policies and rules. It was totally insane that one globalist after another got caught in the act while we were preparing for a vacation.
Take Al Gore at COP28, for example.
If you have social media dominated by algorithms that drag people down rabbit holes like pitcher plants, these algorithms are the digital equivalent of an AR-15. They should be banned. They really should be banned. It is an act of abuse of public space.
Mr. Gore continued:
And if we spend too much time in echo chambers, what becomes weaponized is not artificial intelligence or artificial insanity, but another form of AI. I'm serious. … And these devices are enemies of autonomy and enemies of democracy. We need reforms to both democracy and capitalism.
Understood? According to Al Gore, information outside the mainstream media (approved forums) is a threat to democracy.
Didn't Gore invent the Internet? So why is he so angry? Seriously, doesn't he realize that he and his globalist comrades control nearly every medium through which we get our information? They are Control mainstream media. They are Control Big Tech and Social Media. They are Control Hollywood and Entertainment.
People like Al Gore are fascists and want to swallow everything they can't yet fully control. They fear broadcasters like BlazeTV. Because we are telling you to think for yourself. We encourage you to have the conversation. That will tell you everything you need to know about these people.
They don't control us and never will.
