  • Arizona Forensic Audit May Reveal Facebook, Zuckerberg Election Meddling

    Noisy Room ^ | May 14, 2021 | Daniel John Sobieski
    The Democrats are howling about the forensic audit of the votes cast in Arizona’s Maricopa County, or allegedly cast, in the 2020 presidential election. Methinks they doth protest too much, their angst revelatory of a concern that statistical anomalies and curious events will be proven to be deliberate election tampering. If the 2020 election was conducted fairly, as they insist, then there should be no fear. So what are they afraid of? We all remember how Fox News made a curious early election night call of Arizona for Joe Biden with few actual votes cast while withholding judgment on Florida...

    For the Facebook Advisory Board to continue the ban on President Donald J. Trump posting content on Facebook and Instagram, while Facebook accepts ad revenue and content from drug and human traffickers who funneled kids into the Biden administration’s unsafe and unsanitary kid cages along our border with Mexico, is the height of hypocrisy and pulls the curtain back and shows Mark Zuckerberg is more interested in power and profit than protecting people from harm. As Fox Business reported the dictatorial decision: “The Board has upheld Facebook’s decision on January 7, 2021, to restrict then-President Donald Trump’s access to posting...
  • Spying on Americans to Be Privatized [semi-satire]

    Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 9 May 2021 | John Semmens
    Technically, it is illegal for the government to spy on American citizens without a court supervised "probable cause" being established first. This has the Biden Administration considering "partnering" with private corporations to get the job done. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas pointed out that "the First Amendment prohibits the government from abridging freedom of speech. As we have seen though, privately owned corporations are free to abridge anyone's freedom of speech for any reason or no reason. We see Facebook and Twitter silencing people on a regular basis for expressing opinions they don't like." "So, we got to thinking...

  • California Officials, Biden-Linked Firm Coordinated With Big Tech to Censor Election Posts: Judicial Watch

    The Epoch Times ^ | April 28, 2021 | Isabel Van Burgen
    California officials colluded with Big Tech to censor social media posts in the United States during the 2020 presidential election, government watchdog group Judicial Watch announced Tuesday. The findings come after Judicial Watch received 540 pages and a further four pages of documents from the office of the Secretary of State of California in response to an open records request, the group said. It had filed the request after a December 2020 report surfaced revealing that California’s Office of Election Cybersecurity had surveilled and asked the social media giants to remove or flag as “misleading” at least two dozen messages....
  • I read books electronically for a while but I've switched back to mostly books

    04/25/2021 12:25:16 PM PDT · by SamAdams76 · 76 replies
    Much hullabaloo was made of being able to read books electronically, such as on Kindle, Nook, iPad, etc. For a while, I became an ardent adopter of the concept. I would download my books to read electronically. For a few years, I would do most of my reading this way. But it never did feel the same as the tactile experience of reading a physical book. I'm one who like to flip back a few pages to re-read or to reference the maps and what not in the beginning of the book. It was always cumbersome to do this electronically....

  • FaceBook's "Supreme Court" to Decide If Trump Will Be Allowed Any Presence on the Monopoly Social Connection Platform, Which Means They're Deciding If He Can Run for President or Not

    Without the ability to place ads or fund-raise, a presidential run is a non-starter. But of course the Corporate Services Group called "the GOP" is all in favor of an unaccountable leftwing monopoly deciding on who is allowed to run for president. Isn't it great that monopolistic transnational corporations have "Supreme Courts" that dictate to countries who they're allowed to vote into office? For Bitch McConnell and the rest of the Get-Along Gang: This is exactly the world they've always {dreamed of}. Maxine Waters and LeBron James have received no penalty from FaceBook or any other social media monopoly. Note...

    Big League Politics ^ | April 21, 2021 | Evan James
    Neighborhood social media app Nextdoor has recently announced a new “anti-racist” notification that warns users to reconsider sending messages with the phrases “All Lives Matter” and “Blue Lives Matter.” A video posted to the Nextdoor YouTube channel on Sunday depicts the notification feature in action. Someone responds to a message supporting Black Lives Matter by saying “Why just black lives? I believe all lives matter.” The full-screen “anti-racist” notification then pops up and says: “Hold on… The phrase ‘all lives matter’ can be hurtful to people of color. Consider editing before you publish.” Below is a bright-colored button that prompts...

    Gab News ^ | April 9, 2021 | Andrew Torba
    Over the course of five years Gab has been attacked and smeared by many different Jewish groups including the ADL for simply defending free speech online. Now today the ADL is trying to cancel Tucker Carlson for daring to speak the truth about the reality of demographic replacement that is absolutely and unequivocally going on in The West. These are not “hateful” statements, they objective facts that can no longer be ignored. The ADL wants the government to throw me in jail and shut down Gab for allowing free speech to exist online.

    The Aspen Institute Commission on Information (AICI) has been tasked with launching an effort to eliminate "misinformation" and "disinformation" from the internet, and none other than billionaire eugenicists Bill Gates and George Soros are funding the operation. According to reports, numerous key personalities from media, business and government are also on board with the project, which aims to stop all questioning of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines," fraudulent elections, and other potential show-stoppers to the globalist agenda. Katie Couric, a fake news icon, is a co-chair of AICI, as is Rashad Robinson, the CEO of the far-left activist group Color of...

    Indiana Attorney General has begun investigations into five Big Tech corporations for censorship of conservative content involving Joe Biden’s nominee, Vanita Gupta. The probe includes companies Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, and Twitter over whether they have “harmed Indiana consumers through business practices that are abusive, deceptive and/or unfair.” Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita said, “In a free society, few assets are more important to consumers than access to information and the opportunity to express political viewpoints in meaningful forums.” Adding, “It is potentially harmful and unfair for these companies to manipulate content in ways they do not publicly discuss or...

    Let's say I wanted to build a small web site to try and make a small stab against wokeness. In the past, I'd have probably registered a domain with Godaddy, and then either rented some hosting space or thrown up my own server. In a rural area and it's hard enough to get a reliable DSL - and I need to stay on the good side of my ISP since I use it for work. So short of renting some commercial space in town and trying to get a business internet connection, it looks like I'd have to use a...

    Instagram has removed conservative political commentator Kaitlin Bennett’s iconic graduation photo from three years ago for “violence and incitement.” Meanwhile, the platform has allowed an endless stream of threats against the right-wing firebrand to continue for years. Apparently, Instagram believes that photos of you peacefully exercising your Second Amendment right are a crime. In their notification to Bennett, they said “we don’t allow content that may lead to a genuine risk to physical harm or direct threat to public safety.” TRENDING: HUGE BREAKING NEWS: Arizona Senate Republicans Courageously Announce Team Who Will Perform Maricopa County Election Audit and It's Good...

    In testimony before a congressional committee, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey admitted that his company made a mistake when it tried to suppress news accounts of illicit activity documented in Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop computer. However, he declined to name the person responsible for this "mistake." "Look, the New York Post story and tweet were based on evidence obtained without Hunter Biden's knowledge or permission," Dorsey said. "We felt it was an unfair invasion of his privacy for someone else to disclose contents that, in hindsight, he would rather have not seen in the media because of the damage it would...
