Of course, there are not public executions,&nbsp;yet&nbsp;in Ontario. It&#8217;s still tyranny light. Early in the 1920s, the communist dictatorship in Russia enacted a law making&nbsp;&#8220;anti-semitism&#8221; a crime punishable by death. The regime had much to hide. Russian communism was largely created by Jewish radicals and the early elite of commissars&nbsp;was top heavy with Jews. Those were facts. To state them, though, was &#8220;anti-Semitism&#8221; and earned you a death sentence.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sadly, the Progressive Conservative government of Doug Ford &#8212; don&#8217;t let the&#8221;conservative&#8221; in the name fool you &#8212; has adopted a self-serving Jewish definition of &#8220;anti-Semitism&#8221; that neatly makes almost any criticism of Jews &#8220;anti-semitic&#8221; and, therefore, something the Ontario government is dedicated to fighting.<\/strong><br><strong>Firstly, one may ask why a government should be fighting any ideology&#8211; anti-Semitism, flat earthism or anything else.

It&#8217;s&nbsp;scary awful. Firstly, the DEFINITION of Anti-Semitism they&#8217;re using is the&nbsp;one they used to screw&nbsp; Dr. James Sears, editor, and Leroy St. Germaine, publisher of YOUR WARD NEWS, which they are fighting to overturn.
