Exactly - full censorship was inevitable on a private platform. What's the old saying? Generals are always fighting the last war. Step back and consider the genius of the deep state's strategic aims. It was nothing more than channeling & devoting public (albeit dark) resources in order to build up monopoly enterprises that could then claim private control. Beautiful. However, just like smart adversaries quickly adapt to new battle conditions, patriots must utilize the full arsenal of legal/public weapons to defeat this new threat to liberty.

Another aspect that I've haven't yet seen raised is the larger question of: why now? What's the impetus that finally forced them to act? While a devout atheist, I do appreciate the perspective that Satan's greatest accomplishment was convincing people he doesn't exist. Without question, the greatest strength the mockingbird media possessed was maintaining a public perception of impartiality. Sure, the MSM leaned left, but the "quest of truth & justice was a time honored and noble quest of a free press", ad nuseum.

By destroying any remaining vestiges of this carefully cultivated reputation, the deep state is essentially in 'emergency throwing out all ballast mode'. So, again, I ask why? And not just the Nov elections; this is way, way too soon. In fact, look how fast defensive measures are going to be effectively deployed. So, why the first week of August? Like so many things involving Trump and the ongoing (cold) civil war, it's hard to decipher the tea leaves.

Excellent post.

Lots of people involved in the online political wars don't understand that they're only seeing maybe 10% of the actual cards in the game.

I've learned to wait for the pot to simmer nicely to see what the final dish might be.

For example, I've been holding off on the Sessions question until the last couple weeks of October to see what's actually what.

Why now? Clearing the road of Conservative opposition out on the battlefield is why.

Let’s not look at each individual Nail Shop Incident, Marine Corp. recruiting office, Kirk, and Owens breakfast incidents, but look at the overall picture. They are making it seem as though nothing is safe out there for anyone singing “...our flag was still there”.

IF we are afraid to go out, and campaign then they are the only ones out their with a message. They believe their message of identity politics, hate, and BIG GOVERNMENT is going to win for them, as they accuse their opposition (us) of precisely whom they are.

IF we are going to campaign for what’s right for our country we have to be able to do so, therefore we have to somehow break the pipeline of funding to these rent-a-riot organizations such as Black Lives Matter, and others, or start seeing them jailed for extended periods of time for their lawbreaking.

Their right to peaceful assembly is the same as ours, but for some reason they get much more creative lawyers.
