  1. Is "Live Not By Lies" itself embracing lies-especially by conservatives who are looking to self proclaim victimhood? (Often while holding a great degree of not just freedom but influence.) I've lived through both when there was a gay marriage ban in effect in my state and when it was overruled by the Federal law via the US Supreme Court. Gay people, not conservatives, were denied the legal rights and abilities others had. If I go into a church today when gay marriage is allowed the pastor if not required by law to perform any if he or she does not feel they are part of his faith but gay couples now get the same rights only heterosexuals already enjoyed. Additionally in this video I noticed nods to conspiracy theorists as if they were being oppressed (anti-vaccine stuff) yet it was rightwing conspiracy theorists who joined in the attempt to steal a Presidential election after the candidate they supported lost in 2020 and in that attempt to steal an election deny other people their votes-thus their liberty. I noticed this video wrongly portrayed environmental (fossil fuel) protestors as somehow being paid off by the government (even getting a concert seats or, the horrors, better "medical care"). When I've gone to a hospital they never asked me if I protested against fossil fuels. Same thing fails to happen when most people buy tickets to a concert. Better healthcare would simply be a good thing for the government to insure citizens get. But there are reports some people advocating in relation to Global Warming did get benefits. With both Koch and Exxon-Mobile both having spent (at least) millions of dollars on those deny it is happening.
