Any of you out there being ghosted when you comment on other sites?
Real Clear politics | 1 June 2023 | Chainmail

Posted on 06/02/2023 9:05:46 AM PDT by Chainmail

Have any of you found your comments on public site being deliberately blocked or removed? I think that my comments about the LBTQwerty general attack on all things civilized and that started the ball rolling and then Real Clear Politics removed everything.

On another occasion, the Wall Street Journal wouldn't even accent a post that said "A man in a dress is still a man". Apparently their bots block any attempt to comment if it's anti -trans.

Your thoughts/war stories?

My comment that started it all on Victor David Hanson's piece yesterday:

"I think that it took seeing all of this insanity to finally move the Normals into action: crime is getting worse and the Woke DAs are throwing gasoline on the fire, the men in dresses are obviously just really strange men in dresses and not, ever women.Many of our teachers are pushing perverse propaganda and as it should not be a surprise, pedophiles are pushing this garbage on our kids through the teachers, and Disney. Our elections are anything but and our courts gave up a long time ago.

Hell, yes - it's time to get active!"

A militant gay responded almost immediately with the claim that my comment was "outright bigotry".

So I responded:

"No - the bigotry is the filthy pornography being pushed into our schools and their libraries by the Homosexuals to try to corrupt our children (and they are our children, not yours). Bigotry is men pretending to be women so they can cheat in sports and rob real women of their achievements. Bigotry is "Pride" month with all the garbage that comes with it."

Then he responded "No one cares about your kids."

My final response before the whole thing was shut down was

" "Yeah? Then pull your pornography, your drag Queens, and your groomers out of our schools."

Is it my imagination or are the gays in control of all of our media?

it is not your imagination; the ‘alternative lifestyle’ bunch is very rich, very well connected to the movers and shakers (IOW, Hollywood) and very comfortable being in the public eye...and media moguls live quite happily basking in their reflected glow...

The LGBTQP types have a lot of weighty influence and PR punch way above their weight class.

I remember Congressman Bob Dornan of California complaining about the number of homosexuals in our State Department. That was over 40 years ago. They have gained traction everywhere since then and our side has been way to limp wristed. Thank you for giving them some truth medicine.

McCarthy was right. "McCarthyism" is a word communist faggots use to sneer at what we normal folk call "telling the truth".

I got banned from one (international hobby) group when they had a thread about crime around the world.

My comment was that high crime in the US was limited to only certain areas—and those were easily identifiable by public available data by city and district.

I recommended that international travelers use the Internet to do their homework before visiting.

That was it—didn’t mention any particular cities or even any reason they might have high crime.

Been ghosted on Facebook for a long time. Any of my friends with settings set to get notification of my new posts never get those notifications.

Twitter “killed” my account for, apparently, my criticizing some leftist putz’s blather.

That kind of like being “ghosted.”

I see it especially on YouTube. I have had comments deleted. No profanity no name calling just “ improper” opinion. If not outright deleted then any comments or even likes to what l have said shut off.

The Left’s narratives can only survive in an echo chamber, where criticism and contrary data is not allowed.

Leftists also have difficulty debating. They can name-call, but actually responding with data and logical reasoning is beyond most of them, especially when people are able to pick out flaws in their data. When faced with serious debate, they must withdraw.

Thus these sites NEED to censor conservative opinions. If they don’t, they will lose most of their Democrats

No doubt, there is a lot of that going on. They can ban or censor you for “hate speech” etc. but only they can define the terms.

All true.

They have another tactic as well, to drill so deep into the technical that it would take hours of research to untangle their carefully spun narrative.

It’s a waste of time, so people move on and it appears they have “won”

Have found that the most likely way to help the blind see their error is to ask Socratic questions and to be patient. The great majority of the time there is no indication of anyone being persuaded to change their view. However a minority of people show signs of changing and in a few very rare cases have admitted it. outside of Socratic methods I’ve had almost no success.

You must have a vivid imagination - trannies control the schools - please read the memo again.

I told a story about a teen boy on a bus. He had red, blue, green and white streaks in his mohawk haircut.

An older guy was staring at him and the boy asked, "what are you looking at, old man?"

The man said, "I was in the Army stationed in Panama. One night I got drunk and had sex with a parrot. I was wondering if you're my son."

I told the story on a gun forum. The thread got a bunch of likes, but then disappeared. And I got a demerit.
