In the last 24 hours I’ve had 2 comments removed and warned once by Facebook and the other Quora. One for posting a photo/meme of Goebbels and the other for answering a Quora question about specific examples of communist atrocities by the USSR in ww2 (I gave a reference to the Smithsonian magazine).
Unlike previous times I’ve been flagged or booted I was not involved in arguments or acrimonious language. This is highly unlikely it’s a random coincidence but possible. My guess is they have met or have been given directives to increase censorship.
See tagline 😛
Yes. I posted on Twitter that “Trans is mental illness” and got a 24 hour “time out...”
It’s Feb 2023, Republicans control the House, and the social media are still suppressing free thought, paypal is still taking $2500 from your bank account, cops are still being called for the “wrong” pronoun, kids are still being spayed/neutered, joe biden is still not in jail for having classified documents, the media is still clamping a lid on the Afghanistan story.
In fact the monitoring and censoring of thought seems to have gotten worse.
Come on, Republicans!
Exactly. They get up each day, run into a few successful co servatives, and their blood begins to boil, and they lash out like the petty jealous revenge driven anti-americans that they are. They just can’t help themselves because they know deep down how horrid their agendas really are compared to ours, and it makes them angry.
I think Amazon manipulates reviews to keep certain suppliers ratings higher than what they maybe should be. I’ve also received a few emails from the product sellers asking me to take down some reviews that were 3 star in my view- very unethical for them to do so.
Amazon probably charges for that “serice”,too.
Amazon probably charges for that “serVice”,too.
“redoubling”?
Another fake word I hate...”comptroller”.
The word I love to hate:
“Stakeholder”
Invariably I am never on the “stakeholder” list.
;-)
A large portion of the flagging is done by AI.
The future is now. The Winston Smith method is so 1984.
That could be. Im pretty sure that sellers often have people spam positive reviews to boost their rankings. It wouldn’t surprise me if they pay Amazon to censor negative reviews as well.
Ohhh and something else I forgot.
Quora labeled my post as flagged because of “spam”. I gave a reference to the SMITHSONIAN MUSEUM and they labed that as spam. LOL
💩 fork the far woke left…and hard.
“Your answer was deleted and found to be in violation of our spam policy”
Your description of the meme seems typical enough. (I’m assuming the Goebbels image is one of the usual ones of him orating before some crowd/rally, There are several good ones. Although the portraits of him just starring at the camera are pretty chilling, too.)
Ditto for the account of the killing of the Polish nuns by Russian soldiers. Not sure if they would have been translated into English, but there must be many similar accounts collected from German civilian refugees fleeing the Eastern Front.
(There are, of course, the horrific German atrocities/war crimes as well. The problem with Tit-for-Tat comparisons is that the second crime seems to be somewhat “justified” by the first and uses the supposed thirst for revenge to lessen the criminal’s responsibility for his actions. No. Both were crimes that should be considered on their own. Of course, sensible people do recognize the state-sponsorship, very large scale, industrialized, and coldblooded deliberateness of the German crimes versus the more individual, out-of-control behavior of the Russian soldiers.)
Can you supply some specifics of the removal/warning notifications? (I.e.: “This post violates our standards …etc.”) Might help to understand the mind set of the censor/opposition.
Understand your concern. It’s one thing to disagree over policy or politics. But when you deny established history, you are treading in “1984” territory. Not that the Left is afraid to go there. Hell, they invented it.
The best opportunity to do that slipped by, from January 20 2017 through January 20, 2019. We had both houses and the presidency, but not the political will to do the right thing.
Correct.
RINO’s are as bad as ComDems.
I used to post opinions and replies to posts on Breitbart. Several years ago, they started rejecting my posts. I used "contact us" several times to ask what violation I had committed but never received a reply.
That’s surprising at Quora...I’ve been pretty aggressive in my answer politically on there. Get a lot of guff from users but no admin problems unless they’re practicing some sort of shadow banning.
“Irregardless”...another nonexistent word!!!
