Too often are liberty folks made to apologize for their beliefs or default to the defensive. We should never be ashamed to advocate for the cause of liberty.

Although Tim Pool and Luke Rudkowski are antiwar, their intense, emotional accusations and rhetoric have historically been used to launch conflict. I am neither praising China nor condoning its regime or even denying the...
