Hmm…A Trump Indictment & Woke Politics = Censorship?

 Just Wondering

 


John R. Houk, Blog Editor

© April 4, 2023

 

Blogger has embarked on censoring older posts from SlantRight 2.0 based on their Community Guidelines (WHICH CAN BE READ HERE). Here are the Sub-Headings to the Community Guidelines page which upon first perusal appears reasonable but when applied to Conservative thoughts you can guess the skewed hypocrisy (especially in light of the recent President Trump witch hunt indictment of nothing-burger law):

 

Blogger Content Policy

 

Community Guidelines

 

Adult Content

 

Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation

 

Dangerous and Illegal Activities

 

Harassment, Bullying, and Threats

 

Hate Speech

 

Impersonation and Misrepresentation of Identity

 

Malware and Similar Malicious Content

 

Misleading Content

 

Non-Consensual Explicit Imagery (NCEI)

 

Personal and Confidential Information

 

Phishing

 

Regulated Goods and Services

 

Spam

 

Violent Organizations and Movements

 

Unauthorized Images of Minors

 

Violence and Gore

 

Copyright

 

Enforcement of Blogger's Content Policy

 

When you compare that which was Blogger (actually Google) censored, closest I MIGHT come to a violation a reporting on the violent LEFT. OR the godless immoral LEFT. Do you think Blogger censors actual Leftist calls for violence against Conservatives or Patriots or Christians or Jews? Does Blogger censor Drag Queen shows for children or transgender promotion among children? I DOUBT IT!!!

 

So I’m embarking to sharing the content to mirror Blog The Conservative-Patriot Christian Right (CPCR – formerly NCCR when I once agreed with Neoconservative principles until they proved unworkable in Islamic dominated nations) by link only enabling you the reader to decide if the censorship is valid.  KEEP IN MIND the Blogger censorship is occurring NOW to posts in many cases that happened a half a decade or longer ago.

The post contrasts two platform views from 2012 between Democratic Party and the Republican Party on Abortion and Traditional Marriage. The post is so old most of the embedded links do not even work. The source is the politically active Christian organization Wall Builders (which as of 1:30pm CT 4/4/23 the link https://wallbuilders.com/ would not open in my browser).

Shamim Mahmood (sometimes spelled Mehmood) who is a Pakistani-Christian shared a short history of Muslim discrimination against Christians in Pakistan. The post occurred in 2016. This same Shamim was since punished for his years of civil rights activism in Pakistan with an abduction and torture incident in 2021 (Read about incident HERE & a 30-minute interview between Sheraz Khan & Shamim about 2021 incident on Facebook) and has since left his homeland Pakistan. The “Half Citizens” then are the oppressed Christians in Pakistan. I guess writing about oppressed Christians is against Blogger Guidelines.

If you click the CPCR link, you’ll notice the Western Journal requested I take the post down. But not for egregious content, rather because WJ is a bit more jealous of their copyright brand being shared so I complied. No such WJ request came to Blogger. My sense the “Reader Warning” has more to do with accusing Dem-Marxist Trump-hating Senator Cory Booker of sexually assaulting a homosexual. If WJ requests the removal on copyright grounds at Blogger – sigh - I will comply.

Never Thought I'd See The Day



Have you been shadow banned, censored or deplatformed by a Social Media giant? Perhaps you’ve spent time in ye old notorious Facebook Jail? I know I have had these experiences. If you’ve been in the same plight, you’ll appreciate this Justin Smith post.

Never Thought I'd See The Day

I stay on Facebook simply because it has inserted itself into all sectors of public life, somewhat insidiously I might add, and as such, it wields far too much power as a political tool to simply be abandoned, due to its tyrannical and arbitrary censorship of everything conservative, pro-American, pro-Liberty and pro-Life. If not for this fact, I could care less if I'm on FB or not, until someone in government brings them in line to where they must follow the same guidelines as regular businesses and at least honor our civil rights and the Bill of Rights.

Whether I'm speaking to them or not, or anyone else on Facebook in any particular fashion should not be any of their concern, since everyone is provided a "Block" function; that they go the extra step to act as Big Brother on their private site is still a violation of our First Amendment Rights.


If I'm in a place of business and the owner doesn't like something I say, they cannot censor me. But, like Facebook they can ask me to leave or refuse me service. That's what Facebook essentially does. My assertion is they wouldn't know what I was saying or writing if they weren't illegally spying on me through the algorithms and monitors; and if they run across my public post by accident, they can simply ignore it. They should leave any interaction between all parties participating in FB, and if anyone decides to block me over something I've posted, that's all fair and square.

The way it is now, the Leftists utilizing FB use the block app and Facebook backs them up like a supporting regiment in what amounts to the wholesale censorship of all conservatives on Facebook, by shadow banning posts and locking people out of their accounts, just as Twitter and other Leftist sites are doing. They are trying to take complete control of all search engines and the internet, and they have almost succeeded; right now, even Wordpress is deleting conservative blogs and banning their posts, and Google is already hiding or outright deleting archived conservative material from the internet, which in essence is being scrubbed of conservative supporting historical fact; and, propaganda and out right falsehoods are inserted as replacements.

[Corroborating thoughts of interest:








Taking control of the internet is the greatest danger, and the fact it is taking place before our eyes represents the best reason for Congress to split Google, Facebook and Amazon into smaller organizations under the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, in order that competition gives the free flow of information a fighting chance. Otherwise, our internet will be controlled by big corporations pushing whatever agenda they wish upon the American public. And at some point, whatever they build may be seen as too important to remain in their hands and become the tool of a malicious government intent on using those propaganda programs to control us all.

However unfortunate, America cannot count on Congress to fix the problem at this moment in time, while Democrats control the House. They're on the side of the censors. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., is railing that social media companies are not doing enough to "counter" what he calls "vitriolic hate messages," aligning himself with the same tyranny we see all across Europe play out today through their hate speech illegitimate laws that allow for patriots opposed to Islam and Christians preaching the Gospel to be jailed for their stated beliefs and facts.

Instead, hopefully America will witness the courts step in and right this egregious development in our society. Last fall, a conservative nonprofit called Freedom Watch sued Facebook, Google, Twitter and Apple for suppressing "politically conservative content." It's plausible judges will rule that allowing social media platforms to censor political speech destroys the freedom of the public square.

And that's just the tip of the ice-berg. Just wait until facial recognition and a complete cashless society become reality and they use social media information to determine who is or isn't in good standing with the government. The very techniques FB is using now can be used by any tyranny minded government to keep someone out of work until they toe the party line. We see a similar program already unfolding in China through a social credit score that determines EVERYTHING for the individual .... even whether one gets into a university or not.

As a publicly traded stock, unless I missed the mark somehow, they are supposed to honor the Constitution and respect our civil and constitutional rights in the same manner all other companies with public holdings must adhere to the Bill of Rights and respect the public they serve.

I recently had a dear friend make me aware of the new 'Tech Bias Story Sharing Tool' that puts one on a White House type form, where a person can share their story of abuse and censorship at the hands of any or all the various tech giants. Anyone who has experience the OVERT and BLATANT and Often ARBITRARY CENSORSHIP utilized by Facebook, Twitter, Google and now even Wordpress should use this tool to contact the White House and express Your own particular concerns.

Time will tell. The Senate and the House or the Courts either act or 'We the People' eventually will. To tell the truth, I'm actually surprised that nobody has attacked Facebook headquarters in Molina Park, California in some fashion, even if something as simple as paint bombs.

BIG BROTHER'S HERE. We need to make sure we kill him in the cradle so to speak, or we can kiss liberty in America Good-Bye. Too much of our liberty has already been destroyed through illegitimate legislation. We don’t need to allow anymore to be destroyed in THE PUBLIC SQUARE.

Well, I've rambled on too much already, but this is a touchy subject for me. I never thought I'd see the day where any American wasn't allowed to freely speak his or her mind in this country, under any set of circumstances.

The surprising road ahead for WND


Online publications such as WND (formerly World Net Daily) face economic woes largely due to the Leftist monopoly of Online Media. In a recent WND e-newsletter David Kupelian writes about the effects of this media stranglehold. Among other Leftist entities that Conservatives are nearly forced to use due to a monopolistic Media, Kupelian uses Google and Facebook as prime examples.


At the end of the newsletter WND provides a link enabling you the reader to circumvent the demonetizing tendencies of monopolistic Media Left. As for this small potato blog, you can show your support HERE.

***********************
The surprising road ahead for WND
David Kupelian on defeating the left's stealth takeover of the Internet

E-Newsletter sent May 6 at 10:08 AM
Sent via WND

Dear WND reader,
Today, Monday, May 6, 2019, is WND’s 22nd anniversary as America’s first online journalism company. Thank you for your readership, loyalty and support over all these years. We deeply appreciate it. WND was here before Facebook, before Google, before almost all the other Big Tech companies that have come to dominate – and unfortunately, control – today’s Internet. Following is my candid assessment of where we are, the challenges we face in a much more hostile environment, and the clear road ahead for WND.

The Democratic Party – whose presidential candidates proudly advocate allowing convicted mass-murdering terrorists to vote, destroying America's oil, gas and coal industries, ending private insurance, killing babies after they're born, inviting never-ending hordes of illegal aliens to invade our country, and imposing socialism on the most successful free-market nation in history – could win the presidency and Congress next year.

How is that possible?

How could such an obviously lunatic – and catastrophic – worldview prevail in the United States of America, you ask?

There are several reasons, but let's start with a big one: Lies take hold in the absence of truth, and the left is now deeply engaged in a campaign to eliminate truthful free speech and a free press in our beloved country.

I'm talking about the ongoing censorship and predatory monopolistic suppression of genuinely truth-based journalism.

You no doubt are already somewhat familiar with this. Every day, it seems, Facebook or Twitter or YouTube has banned or suspended or demonetized yet another conservative, Republican or Christian.

But behind such headlines, something far deeper and more consequential is happening.

The left in America – with its increasingly blatant totalitarian tendencies – already dominates most of our nation's major institutions, from our colleges and universities, to today's Democratic Party, to Hollywood, to the "mainstream media." Well, now the same "progressive" left has succeeded in taking over yet another gigantic institution: the Internet.

Although WND has published many stories over the last year and a half exposing Google, Facebook and the other tech giants' campaign to extinguish free speech and independent journalism, we probably understated the problem.

As the original online journalism organization, going way back to 1997, WorldNetDaily – like other independent news enterprises – has been enduring a powerful, concerted, multi-pronged attack.

First, there's the all-out assault on our operating revenues.

"Journalism, sustained by traditional advertising, is dying," confirms the respected Washington, D.C.-based Electronic Privacy Information Center, or EPIC. In the research center's recent written testimony to Congress's Subcommittee on Digital Commerce and Consumer Protection, EPIC summarized its findings starkly: "Two companies [Google and Facebook] dominate the market. The privacy of internet users is under assault. The revenue model that sustained journalism is broken. The ad platforms are manipulated by foreign adversaries. Secrecy and complexity are increasing as accountability is diminished."

To understand exactly how the "Digital Cartel" has managed to wreak so much havoc, read EPIC's letter to Congress here.

Bear in mind that what enabled Google and Facebook to accomplish this – to essentially steal the life-sustaining advertising revenues from WND and other online news organizations – is their scandalous practice of invading your privacy and harvesting and monetizing your private, personal information. Totally unrepentant over this, Facebook is now going after your bank account.

But vanishing revenues are just part of the problem.

While Google and Facebook vacuum up four-fifths of all digital advertising, thereby depriving news sites like ours of their traditional lifeblood, these same mega-companies are simultaneously censoring, suppressing and "shadow-banning" independent, right-of-center news and opinion sources. It is now utterly indisputable that the Internet gatekeepers' leftwing bias is fully baked into their algorithms, which is why – in an era when the Trump economy is expanding, with manufacturing finally returning to the U.S. and employment at record highs – for the past two years, it is almost exclusively stories claiming Trump is a traitorous Russian double-agent that have populated the Google or Facebook news feeds where tens of millions congregate to get their "news."

Worse, you've no doubt heard that many of these Internet mega-companies now rely on the same corrupt hate group, the Southern Poverty Law Center, as their go-to expert on whom to discriminate against as purveyors of "hate speech." (This, even though the SPLC's top leaders have recently been ousted amid revelations of internal racial and sexual harassment!) The SPLC is best known for its "hate group" lists where it delights in lumping together genuinely honorable Christian/conservative organizations – like the American Family Association, Liberty Counsel, Alliance Defending Freedom, the Family Research Council and yours truly, WND – with actual hate groups like the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, Aryan Nations and the Westboro Baptist Church.

WorldNetDaily has long been featured on the SPLC's ridiculous "hate/extremist" label. And since the Southern Poverty Law Center now determines what is "hate speech" or "fake news" for Google, Facebook and others, is it any wonder that these days, WND rarely shows up on a Google search unless you specify "WND" in your search, or else enter the exact WND headline?

There is much more going on, but hopefully it is now absolutely clear to you that, in a multitude of ways, the leftwing appropriation of the Internet is intent on accomplishing what it already has in America's universities, popular culture, Democratic Party and establishment press. That is, to take it over, impose politically correct speech (and therefore thought) codes, and suppress dissident voices – in this case, making it extremely difficult for journalists animated by American, constitutional, biblical, commonsense values to do their job of digging out the truth and reporting it to you.

So, what does the future hold for WND and other independent media?

It's no secret that WND has been severely impacted by this ongoing assault and is having to reinvent itself in many ways, from painful cost reductions including layoffs and pay-cuts, to optimizing remaining revenue sources, to inventing new and outside-the-box strategies in every part of our company.

Is there hope? Well, consider this.

Revered economist and technology futurist George Gilder, in his new book "Life After Google: The Fall of Big Data and the Rise of the Blockchain Economy," predicts Google will one day come to an end. Why? Because, says Gilder, at root Google's "philosophy attempts to lay an axe to the root of human creativity, free will and man's uniqueness as created in God's image."

Let me explain. Gilder, whose track record of anticipating future technology trends is impeccable, predicts that today's extreme centralization of data, power and wealth will one day give way to a new age of decentralization, restored privacy and individual empowerment. That would mean Google-Facebook's predatory monopolistic destruction of competitors, wanton invasion of privacy and ideological censorship also come to an end.

However, there's a catch. Key to that better future, says Gilder, is understanding that the whole idea of "free" is an illusion. As we all have recently learned, when we access Facebook and Google for "free," it's only because it turns out we are the product being sold! In place of "free" services that exploit, monetize and censor us, says Gilder, new developments like blockchain technology, cryptocurrency and micropayments will one day play a crucial role in keeping the public square of information open, decentralized, healthy and thriving.

If all this still sounds a bit esoteric, let's boil it down to its essence: Only one thing is immune to Google/Facebook's censoring, stifling, starving and shadow-banning independent, pro-American news and analysis like WND. Only one thing can counteract Amazon sucking up all the ecommerce and crippling everyone else.

That one thing that trumps all the predatory business practices, censorship and utopian fantasies of the current Internet gatekeepers is the creativity and goodness of real people acting under the inspiration of Almighty God. Arrogant, wealthy mega-companies cannot interfere with genuine virtue and generosity working through human beings committed to helping each other.

We at WND would love nothing more than to be able to continue working our hearts out doing what we've been doing for you for the past 22 years. If you agree, help us. It's just as simple as that.

The Digital Cartel – and for that matter, the rest of the dark forces of this world – cannot destroy an honorable relationship between you and us. We give to you, and you give back to us. There is no "free." "It is always a lie," says Gilder, "because on this earth nothing, in the end, is free."

Timing is everything. Gilder's hopeful predictions – that the tech giants will succumb to the self-destruct code they have unknowingly created, and that one day what he calls the "cryptocosm" will usher in a new era of unfettered Internet freedom where ideological censorship is no more, privacy is restored, and sovereign individuals happily pay a tiny amount for the content they like – may take years to come about.

But for WND to survive, that future has to be now.

Please help us today. Otherwise, we will not be around.

WND has a very large readership, millions of people who have freely benefited from its tireless and courageous journalism for two decades. If every reader chipped in just $10, or even as little as $3, we would have no financial problems at all, and in fact could expand our efforts to do even more! If you are able and inclined to donate more (to make up, very frankly, for the majority of people reading this who, for whatever reasons, will not respond), that would be wonderful. And most urgently, if you choose the monthly option for your donation, that helps us enormously as it provides a regular revenue base we can count on.

If you prefer to send a donation check, please mail it to: WND, 580 E. Street PO Box 100, Hawthorne, NV 89415-0100.

Please help us. Time is short. This is a time for action – for all of us. Our adversaries are not holding back, and we need to not hold back either. I pray you will be inspired to join us. Thank you and God bless you.

Blogger in Process of Removing G+ & Like Buttons


John R. Houk
© February 7, 2019


If you blog, read blogs, spend time on social media and/or share what you read on social media; then you are probably aware Google is shutting down its social media program Google-Plus (G+} in April. If you didn’t know – SURPRISE, it’s happening.

The reason I think I read is Google believes there is a lack of traffic. Another possible reason I heard is G+ had a hack breach and Google doesn’t want to deal with the issue. Since I tend to lean toward conspiracy reasoning, I have a suspicion most G+ users are of a Conservative nature and Google does more than lean Left, Google almost falls on its face leftward because it leans so far Left. At any rate, I received this announcement from Blogger (owned by Google) about G+ social sharing:

Following the announcement of Google+ API deprecation scheduled for March 2019, a number of changes will be made to Blogger’s Google+ integration on 4 February 2019.

Google+ widgets: Support for the “+1 Button”, “Google+ Followers” and “Google+ Badge” widgets in Layout will no longer be available. All instances of these widgets will be removed from your blog.

+1 buttons: The +1/G+ buttons and Google+ share links below blog posts and in the navigation bar will be removed.

Please note that if you have a custom template that includes Google+ features, you may need to update your template. Please contact your template supplier for advice.

Google+ Comments: Support for Google+ comments will be turned down, and all blogs using Google+ comments will be reverted back to using Blogger comments. Unfortunately, comments posted as Google+ comments cannot be migrated to Blogger and will no longer appear on your blog. 

Those buttons have disappeared on Blogger usage on SlantRight 2.0. I found this annoying because my “Like Button” disappeared as well, meaning the Facebook social media are prevented from liking posts. I’m going to try and figure on placing a “Like Button” back on the blog, but I’m not really tech-savvy so it might take awhile to figure that out.

SMOKING GUN MEMO LAID OUT LEFT’S ASSAULT ON CONSERVATIVES



On 8/29/18 I cross posted Joseph Farah’s email alert “The shocking Soros 'speech code cartel' memo”. Farah exposed a Leftist agenda under the support of George Soros a memo authored by David Brock with a game plan to undermine President Trump squelch Conservative voices online: “Full David Brock Confidential Memo On Fighting Trump”.

Matthew Vadum does more than talk about it. Vadum adds some detail on FrontPageMag.com.

JRH 9/1/18
In this current state of media censorship & defunding, consider chipping in a few bucks for enjoying (or despising) this Blog.


***********************
SMOKING GUN MEMO LAID OUT LEFT’S ASSAULT ON CONSERVATIVES
While President Trump was being inaugurated, the Soros-funded Left was busy agitating.

August 30, 2018




[To learn more about the Freedom Center's recent victory over the Left's censorship attempt, and its call for a coalition across party and ideological lines to defend free speech, click here.]

A strategy memo compiled by George Soros-funded activist groups as President Trump was being inaugurated last year foretold and seemed to lay the groundwork for many of the political difficulties Trump now faces and the politics-related strife now roiling the nation.

The memo takes on a heightened importance as the politically-driven censorship of conservatives by the gigantic, unregulated social media corporations controlled by the Left is moving into high gear while the crucial midterm congressional elections of Nov. 6 approach.

The intensely anti-conservative animus in the memo may have inspired MasterCard and WorldPay’s attempt on Aug. 21 to strangle the fundraising efforts of the David Horowitz Freedom Center, publisher of FrontPage, by refusing to complete its financial transactions. On that day MasterCard informed the Freedom Center that it would no longer process its transactions because it had been labeled a “hate group” by the radical leftist groups known as the Southern Poverty Law Center and ColorOfChange.org. The Freedom Center stood falsely accused of being “hateful in nature” and “advocating for violence.”

Only a massive outcry by conservative groups and prominent conservatives like Rush Limbaugh forced MasterCard to back down days later and restore the Freedom Center’s online fundraising facilities. But other conservative websites haven’t been so lucky. Many have been shut down or seen their traffic slashed as leftists have manipulated algorithms and limited the reach of conservative content.

The David Horowitz Freedom Center has since called for a coalition to be created across partisan and ideological lines to defend free speech.

The memo itself, "Democracy Matters: Strategic Plan for Action," marked an escalation in tactics by the Left. It was first made public last year by Joe Schoffstall of the Washington Free Beacon around the time Donald Trump took the oath of office to become the nation’s 45th president. This smoking-gun planning document aimed at suppressing conservative voices on social media was ignored by the mainstream media at the time and in the more than a year-and-a-half since.

The document spelled out the Left’s plans for impeaching President Trump, filing lawsuits against the fledgling administration, and using social media to delegitimize Trump’s presidency and hurt Republicans. “Right now, our institutions are among the critical few that stand between the America we love and the abyss,” the memo stated. “We must protect and defend our democratic values. We will not back down. We will only move forward.”

WND founder Joseph Farah referred last week to the 49-page memo as a blueprint “revealing how George Soros operatives, including David Brock, were there at the genesis, the planning stages, with their hands on the ignition key, of the most concerted, well-funded, diabolical attack on free speech in the history of America.”

The document “was nothing short of a plan to turn Google, Facebook and other social media into hyper-partisan Democratic Party activists, promoters, cheerleaders, and off-the-books donors in an effort to turn the country into a one-party state.”

The memo outlined left-wing activist David Brock's four-year plan to undermine the Trump administration and Republicans using Media Matters for America (MMfA), American Bridge 21st Century, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), and left-wing propaganda website Shareblue. All four organizations were either founded by Brock or are now controlled by him. Since 2008, leftist billionaire George Soros has given more than $1.5 million to MMfA and more than $1.1 million to CREW through his philanthropies.

Brock, who reportedly raised $65 million during the 2016 election cycle, began working on his plan more or less immediately after Republican Donald Trump unexpectedly trounced Democrat Hillary Clinton in the presidential election in November 2016.

Brock and his comrades met in Palm Beach, Fla., as Trump assumed the presidency and Trump-hating Antifa rioted in the streets of the nation’s capital. “What better way to spend inaugural weekend than talking about how to kick Donald Trump’s ass?” Brock said in an email to left-wing mega-donors including Soros and Tom Steyer.

Whether Brock can take responsibility for all the leftist-inspired turmoil in the country is debatable, but many of the goals identified in the memo have already come to pass.

According to the memo, MMfA “will continue its core mission of disarming right-wing information.” This is what “success will look like,” the document states:

Serial misinformers and right-wing propagandists inhabiting everything from social media to the highest levels of government will be exposed, discredited.

Internet and social media platforms, like Google and Facebook, will no longer uncritically and without consequence host and enrich fake news sites and propagandists.

Toxic alt-right social media-fueled harassment campaigns that silence dissent and poison our national discourse will be punished and halted.

CREW will become “the leading nonpartisan ethics watchdog group in a period of crisis with a president and administration that present possible conflicts of interest and ethical problems on an unprecedented scale,” the memo states.

CREW “will demand ethical conduct from the administration and all parts of government, expose improper influence from powerful interests, and ensure accountability when the administration and others shirk ethical standards, rules, and laws.”

Success will take this form, according to the document:

Trump will be afflicted by a steady flow of damaging information, new revelations, and an inability to avoid conflicts issues.

The Trump administration will be forced to defend illegal conduct in court.

Powerful industries and interest groups will see their influence wane.

Dark money will be a political liability in key states.

The Shareblue website “will take back social media for Democrats,” the memo states. The group will “delegitimize Donald Trump's presidency by emboldening the opposition and empowering the majority of Americans who oppose him.”

Success will be achieved when the following happens:

Shareblue will become the de facto news outlet for opposition leaders and the grassroots.

Trump allies will be forced to step down or change course due to news pushed by Shareblue.

Under pressure from Shareblue, Democrats will take more aggressive positions against Trump.

Shareblue will achieve financial sustainability while diversifying content offerings and platforms.

Top editorial and writing talent will leave competitors to join Shareblue.

Meanwhile, President Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Tuesday that social media giants Google, Twitter, and Facebook “better be careful” because they “are treading on very, very troubled territory” by favoring left-wing viewpoints.

Earlier that day he tweeted, “This is a very serious situation—will be addressed!”

“Google search results for ‘Trump News’ shows only the viewing/reporting of Fake New Media. In other words, they have it RIGGED, for me & others, so that almost all stories & news is BAD,” he wrote. “Republican/Conservative & Fair Media is shut out. Illegal.”

Google CEO Sundar Pichai has indicated he will not testify at a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing Sept. 5. on social media and Russian meddling in American elections. Unlike Pichai, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg are expected to testify.

Whether Dorsey and Sandberg will tell the truth is an open question.

Conspiracy Theorist Alex Jones is facing a ban from all quadrants of Social Media, Prager U is being censored by Facebook and Youtube, and more. These appear to be the main culprits that hate Conservative ideology so much that they direct wholesale bans, shadow bans and temporary jail which is essentially a suspension of service for a period of time:

Ø Facebook

Ø Google

Ø Twitter

Ø Youtube (Google owned)

I myself have experienced the jail-privilege from Facebook and Google (specifically from G+) several times. As of this writing, G+ is preventing even a “request” to “join” any G+ Community. As a test I even withdrew from a couple of low-traffic Communities, then I tried to put in a couple of “ask to join” requests. Each time a little banner-box pops up telling me there was an error and try again later.

I’ve been trying later for weeks now and the error message still pops up.

Here is a list of Conservatives censored one way or the other from 3/4/18 Gateway Pundit:

Young Cons: Extremely popular conservative news site and received millions of daily readers during the election.  The website received nearly all of its traffic from Facebook. Since 2016 Facebook shut down stories to Young Cons.  Each algorithm change meant less traffic for the popular website.  YoungCons was blacklisted by Facebook and struggles to maintain readers.  The site regularly switches domains to save traffic.

SarahPalin.com: With over 4 million fans one of the popular conservative pages on Facebook until Facebook blocked all traffic to the website.  The page was forced to change the domain to save traffic numbers.

Right Wing News:  Right Wing News grew to an enormous website in the past few years thanks its popularity on Facebook. In July of 2015, in just a week, the Right Wing News Facebook page reached 133 million people. Because conservatives were sharing content they were interested in, Right Wing News (with 3.6 million Facebook likes) was driving the same amount of web traffic as some of the biggest newspapers in America.  Since the 2016 election Facebook blocked traffic to the website.  Owner John Hawkins announced he was shutting down the website in January.

Western Journalism: Newsweek reported that the site has grown from receiving 1,000 page views a day in 2009[3] to more than 1 million during 2016. The website was averaging around 6 million page views a day according to Quantcast during the election. Today it is down to around 500,000 a day. Western Journalism was blacklisted by Facebook.

The Gateway Pundit: TGP was ranked as the 4th most influential conservative news source during the 2016 election. The site in 2016 received nearly a third of its traffic from Facebook. This past weekend Facebook blocked all traffic from recent stories to the website. TGP advertised with Facebook and is another top conservative website blacklisted by the company. TGP is also shadow-banned by Google and frequently attacked and smeared by the liberal media.

President Trump Facebook page:  A recent algorithm change has caused President Donald Trump’s engagement on Facebook posts to plummet a whopping 45%. In contrast, Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT) do not appear to have suffered a comparable decline in Facebook engagement, reported Breitbart’s Alum Bokhari.

Independent Journal Review:  A massive conservative website based on Facebook audience.  The Independent Journal Review (IJR) terminated a number of its employees on Thursday, leaving an unclear future for the millennial-focused conservative website that has recently faced a declining audience.  IDF was also shadow-banned and blacklisted.

Breitbart.com:  Breitbart was the most influential conservative news source in 2016 with a massive audience.  Since the election Breitbart is constantly targeted and smeared by far left operations.  Breitbart advertising was targeted by Sleeping Giants and other Soros sites.

InfoWars:  Infowars is another dominant conservative site with enormous traffic.  After several years of video production and tens of thousands of video YouTube gave Infowars its third strike this week and threatens to shut the YouTube Channel down.

Rightside Broadcasting: This YouTube Channel had millions of views before the election.  Since 2016 YouTube has shadow-banned all of their videos.  YouTube has classified its videos of President Trump at a rally as hate speech.  YouTube has demonetized hundreds of its videos.  YouTube hides its videos.  Income for the site is down 95% since the election.

Natural News: A very prominent health website and the world’s top source on natural health. The site receives tens of thousands of readers every day. YouTube wiped out over 1,700 videos covering everything from nutrition, natural medicine, history, science and current events.

From a reader: You Tube deleted Natural News Channel. It’s conservative and full of info on health, too. I took a screen shot. I’m very upset. My husband has aggressive cancer from. Agent Orange and I depended on this channel for his diet among other things. The man, Mike Adams, is literally a genius, and I mean literally, and he is very conservative.

Prager Report:  PragerU, a conservative educational site, is suing Google and its subsidiary YouTube, accusing the video site of censoring its online videos because of their political leanings.  YouTube has banned several of its videos including segments on abortion and Islam.   Prager U has a massive conservative audience in the millions.

Pamela Geller.com Pamela is well-known for speaking out against radical Islam.  ISIS has threatened to behead her several times.  During the election PG had over 100,000 daily views from Facebook.  Today Facebook has shut down most of her traffic.  Her website suffered serious losses in revenue since the election.

Diamond and Silk: Pro-Trump YouTube sensations have a suit against YouTube. The Trump supporters announced in August 2017 that 95% of their videos have been demonetized on YouTube.

This list is derived from March 2018. Indeed, I just receive an email Alert from ACT for America that Youtube has pulled videos. The ACT email states according to Youtube rules, this video removal counts as a strike. The email doesn’t specify how many strikes have been placed on ACT for America, but the rules state three-strikes and the Youtube Channel is removed.

The most recent video related to reporting on the Islamic cult compound being busted for child abuse and training kids to be school shooters among other things. Youtube called the video report HATE SPEECH.

ACT for America began a petition to protest the Youtube action. Other than validation for ACT choices, I am unsure how much effect such a petition will have.

What needs to happen is to have Conservative and Counterjihad writers and organizations ban [maybe “ban” is the wrong word for this instance – maybe “group] together, perhaps with some kind of joint-petition with the goal of influencing legislation.

Below is the ACT email Alert about unjust Youtube censorship.

Big tech companies are using their power and influence to censor the conservative voice. ACT for America has experienced this first hand over the last few weeks.

First, YouTube removed an ACT for America video that dated all the way back to 2012 - in the process of removing the video, YouTube applied a "strike" to our account. If an account receives three strikes in a 90-day period, the account is expelled from YouTube. This is problematic because YouTube is the ONLY major platform to share videos from and if ACT for America were to lose our YouTube channel - we would be at a serious disadvantage to other organizations.

Youtube Attention Warning

Most recently, I called Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, the terrorist who was just charged for training young children in New Mexico to shoot up schools, "sick and depraved." Calling a terrorist who takes pleasure in training young children to kill people "sick and depraved" should not be controversial. However, Facebook did not agree. Within just a few hours of posting about the accused terrorist, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, my account was suspended for 24 hours for violating Facebook's policy regarding "hate speech." Yes, that's right - I was suspended from Facebook for calling a terrorist "sick and depraved."

Fortunately, Twitter did not find my post to violate their hate speech policies - you can take a look at my post below:

That's the reality we live in right now with big tech companies. Kathy Griffin can pose with a decapitated head of our President and receive no punishment, but if I call a terrorist sick and depraved I get suspended for hate speech. These Orwellian "hate speech" policies are being implemented with the explicit purpose to silence conservative voices.

[Blog Editor: Here is a video of Natural News Editor fuming over Youtube & Facebook censorship. The roughly 44-minute post uses the REAL.VIDEO platform no doubt to avoid Youtube censors. The thing is I’m not sure if the embed code will work on my blogs (especially Wordpress). If that occurs click the embedded link within the title.]
