Parler: “We will not let civil discourse perish!”
Facebook has been flagging news about the “return” of Parler as false. It is fair to say that Parler is not back the way it was before Amazon pulled the plug (lawsuits underway for breach of contract). But if you go to Parler.com, there is a Parler page with a message.
You Should Gab, Not Tweet
While I have not deleted my Twitter account, I refuse to tweet because of the censorship of President Trump and the election interference. Freedom of Speech is more than just the First Amendment’s prohibition of government censorship. It is a value. An American value.
Irony Alert: Democrat Demands Evidence That What “She Wrote” Incited Violence.
Rosemarie Rung is the sole Democrat Rep. survivor in Merrimack from New Hampshire’s 2020 washout Elections. But back when we had four of her, they were quite a team. They accused us of things, even spread rumors about us inciting violence for which they never provided any proof.
When Your Revolution Comes for You – Will You Miss Me Then?
The cacophony emanating from the Political Left for the past week has had one common theme. Not new, but louder and more confident. End the right. Silence the menace, by which they mean our unceasing opposition to the left’s program.
Capitol “Rioter” Admits to Being BLM Anti-Trump Activist
Left-Wing Narratives are all about absolutes. All Trump supporters are Klansman or Nazis. Kill the rich. And every protester at the Capitol needs to go to jail. Even this guy? John Earle Sullivan, a BLM supporter and founder of Insurgence USA.
Disturbing Notable Quote – “Seeing Half the Country Cheer THIS On.”
The topic is the censoring of Conservative Speech even on conservative platforms (as opposed to the Big Tech platforms like Facebook and Twitter – you know, the “Mean Girls”). Disturbing – yes. Unexpected? No. Why?
We Have Too Many Amendments Anyway
Biden isn’t even inaugurated yet, but the left is already attempting the complete destruction of First Amendment rights. Dissent comes from free speech and leftists allow only submission and compliance.
Notable Quote: Why are they afraid of us?
Reformatted, emphasis mine: January 8, 2021. As a conservative political writer, which I’ve been for some time, Friday night had the weird feel of a surrealistic, conservative-thought-purging Kristallnacht. First and most surreal, Jack Dorsey’s Twitter permanently banning the account of the President of the United States. Not for some singular awful thing Donald Trump did, said, … Read more
The Left’s Burning Desire for Revenge
Every. Damned. Word. E.g.: “In other words, are you out of your ever-loving little minds? These people STOLE two elections – it’s now absolutely obvious the nominal right is fine with this. They hope for crumbs from their masters’ tables.”
“Free Speech” Has to Mean Speech You May Find Offensive
If you believe in freedom of speech, you believe in freedom of speech for views you don’t like. If you’re in favor of freedom of speech you are in favor of freedom of speech precisely for views you despise. Otherwise, you’re not in favor of freedom of speech.
Progressive Purge and Starting Civil War II? Conservatives: Screw You
So we’re seeing a purge by the Progressively based Big Tech of Conservatives from their platforms. Facebook, Twitter, Google, Instagram, Spotify, Itsy, Stripe, Pinterest, and a ton more. They’ve joined in as “the muscle” of the Democrat Party.
What Do China, Iran, and Billionaire Tech-Hipster Yogi Jack Dorsey’s Sh*twitter Have in Common
Billionaire Tech-Hipster Yogi Jack Dorsey sits atop the rhetorical sh*t wagon we call Twitter. Sh*twitter. A never-ending noise machine that creaks along the digital super-highway with a nearly-religious-like devotion to directing political traffic.
When Michelle Obama Says Censor Donald Trump She Means You
Michelle Obama had her toned and beautiful arms in an uproar the other day. Ban Donald Trump from all social media. You don’t have to love Trump to see the problem. A former First Lady is calling for the blanket censorship of a political opponent. For what must be the thousandth time, are you listening?
One Prediction for 2021: The Transpronounpolice Are Gonna Make 2021 Crappier Than Ever.
I dunno about you but I am getting tired of folks with whom I disagree politically demanding that I submit to their “speech morality.” Any burden to be “nice” is to be carried by me but defined by those opposed to my morality and politics (and they can change that morality on a whim).
Happy New Year … 2020 In the Rearview
How irresponsible did the media become in 2020? We all know major newspapers are winning Pulitzer Prizes for blatantly false reporting. They have done false reporting on the topic of “Russian collusion.” We know Silicon Valley is appointing themselves censors.
Shame on You, Party Democrats
For 3 long weeks, the Lakes Region has been immersed in an ugly controversy based on accusations of alleged deliberate bigoted inclinations, speech, and activity by Rep. Dawn Johnson. Many are adamant this is a humanitarian issue, not political. Based on the observations below, I strongly disagree.
Companies and Governments Suppress and Censor; People Still Find Ways to Express Themselves
It should cause us great trepidation that German-style Internet controls are catching on around the world. The home of National Socialism does not have an Enlightenment perspective.
Poland Proposes Free Speech Court to Protect Social Media Content from Censorship
Poland has a new law under consideration. It’s simple. If someone publishes something that does not violate Poland’s Laws, Social Media platforms like Facebook and Twitter can’t censor it or deplatform the speaker. If they do and lose, it could cost them up to 2 million dollars.
