UK – “We Need To Find Ways To Suppress Douglas Murray & Joe Rogan”: Inside A Counter-Terrorism Course For UK Civil Servants
“To de-platform them would cause issues… so, society needs to find other ways to suppress them…”
A former civil servant, Anna Stanley reports on a counter-terrorism course she attended which she found a deeply, existentially depressing experience.

It is easy to be sat in Kings College London and feel that all cultures are equal, when you haven’t been anally raped at a peace festival by someone shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ and held hostage.
