“All entities that are not explicitly right-wing will become left-wing over time”
I used to do a lot of hiking, and my hiking buddy liked to pick up the occasional stone and toss it back up the mountain. He was only half-serious when he implied that he was counteracting the natural forces of regression or decline. Entropy, even. Someone should have done that with Fox News or, better yet, Republicans.
Do You Really Advance Truth by Destroying Truth?
Today the First Amendment to the constitution of the once freest nation in the world is moribund. Its enemies are not Klansmen in hoods seeking to intimidate blacks. And its enemies are not right-wing conspiracy theorists rooting out communists.
Innovation Comes From Free Speech and Freedom of Thought
Alex Berenson self-published a series of pamphlets on Amazon. They offer a dissenting view about the efficacy of forcing coronavirus lockdowns. The Big Tech response? Amazon is blocking his most recent installment.
Candace Owens Wins Legal Fight With Lying Facebook Fact Checker PolitiFact
Facebook plays it just like Elected Dems. Politicians offload responsibility to bureaucrats then feign innocence if something goes sideways. Facebook gives third-party fact-checkers censorship carte-blanch but claims no responsibility for their antics.
Bill Gates: Social Media Platforms Need To Face Stronger Regulation In The U.S.
There’s nothing like the smell of creeping tyranny in the morning! Yes, you can quote me. Even when the tyranny is not just creeping, it is crawling. Seeping might work or descending – as in from the ruling class.
My Thoughts on Facebook’s Tips on Building a Diverse and Inclusive Community
As you may be aware, Facebook is threatening to deplatform the Grok Facebook Page. Antifa organized violence gets a pass, but we question the efficacy of masks or rigged election results, and we’re naughty. Community Standards, like mask mandates, are for other people.
Don’t Tell Me Who You Are, Show Me What You Vote For
If you have been paying any attention to politics in America and NH today, you know that the Democrat Party has become steadily more radical, and I’ll say it, more un-American.
Another Progressive Angry That a Conservatarian Listened To Her Talk – Gracie Gato: Stalker!!!! Part 2
Heh! Reports are coming back that said Progressive is unhappy that said Conservatarian is using her words in order to comment on them. Free Speech much? Naw, she’s the California version of NH State Rep Jan Schmidt – you know, the Bernie-Bro that hates the idea that ANYONE disagrees with her monoculture foreign political philosophy … Read more
Transgender Mob Willing To Trash Free Speech (for All) if It Silences Their Opponents
The same old story. We on the Right want the Left to talk, talk, talk, and talk even more. The Left demands our SILENCE! And that just got reinforced by a person from my hamlet with a message.
A Culture So Poisoned That They Can’t Help but Do Wrong
Imagine, if you can, a story about Don Trump Jr. The contents of a laptop are leaked to a national news source who publishes documents found on the device. Evidence that he sold access to his father and the White House. Big news?
Democrat Speech Cop Brenna Connolly Wants Nashua to Police First Amendment Rights
Self-appointed speech-cop Brenna Connoly got her jimmies rustled this week. The Nashua Democrat activist took offense to an opinion that was not her own and promptly demanded that speech be silenced. The city dutifully complied.
“Facebook Lets Activists Restrict My Videos Based on Something I Never Said.”
This is an ongoing problem with Facebook that they won’t acknowledge by actually DOING something. Oh, they’ll issue a non-apology apology. Say it was a mistake or that an “algorithm” screwed things up. Except that the vast majority of mistakes and the screwups involve conservatives taking it in the shorts.
Another Argument for Treating Big Tech Like Utilities
It is generally accepted that because companies like Twitter, Facebook, and Alphabet (Google, YouTube, everything else) are private, they can suppress all the speech and exhibit as much (left-leaning) bias as they please.
Court Tosses Unconstitutional Ordinance, Orders City of LA to Pay NRA’s Legal Costs
Democrats will do almost anything to shut down or impair the ability of a political opponent to operate. California is where they beta-test these ideas. But sometimes they go too far, and Los Angeles (LA) ordinance 186000 did just that. It prohibited free association with the National Rifle Association (NRA).
Dartmouth Ranks 52nd Out of 55 for Speech Tolerance on Campus (Yes, That’s Bad)
Dartmouth was where professor Mark Brey was teaching when he launched a book justifying Antifa violence to suppress speech with which Liberals disagree (with the support of 100 Dartmouth colleagues). Another professor supported the idea of Doxxing Catholic teenagers. And hating on Thanksgiving is a tradition.
Democrat not Happy About a Political Joke Involving Absentee Ballots and a Toilet
Here is one more example of what the Right thinks. That the Left has little to no sense of humor, as you all know. Democrats are all-in on the absentee-universal ballots, which have become a thing during this WuFlu pandemic. Frankly, most political watchers know this isn’t about “keeping safe.
New Hampshire’s Secret Red Flag Law and How You Are At Risk
Using a state law against “Stalking,” RSA 633:3-a, anyone can file a request for a temporary restraining order against you, asking the court to shut down your political speech by placing a gag order on you and to remove all firearms and ammunition from your home.
HB1159 – like a Zombie from the Crypt, it’s alive at 10am this morning. UPDATE: It’s now dead forever more
UPDATE and BUMPED: Hmm, I had edited this earlier but WordPress seems to have lost it. The Criminal and Justice Committee voted, 11-0, to “not recommend further legislation”. To my surprise, the motion was by Rep David Meuse who said it had First Amendment problems and implications for the Press. He also said that there … Read more
