Free Speech Still Not Allowed At Twitter Despite Claims By Elon Musk.

Is the new Twitter the same as the old Twitter? Is the social media platform, now called 'X', nothing more than a controlled site that promotes the agenda of the deep state establishment? Yes, and yes, if my experience and the experiences of others I've talked to are any indication. 

I joined Twitter earlier this year and slowly but surely gained followers. But I noticed very little engagement with my tweets. I added hashtags, followed influential people, and interacted with others regularly. But my numbers wouldn't budge. After several months of steady tweets, I saw that the vast majority were only viewed by one or two people. Twitter simply wasn't showing my posts to anyone, not even to my followers who wanted to see them. I've been shadow-banned before on other platforms, but never to this extent. I was literally invisible to almost everyone. Remember when Elon Musk said “the new Twitter policy is freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach”?  Obviously he wasn't joking about that. Because two weeks ago I logged into my account and saw this: "Your account is suspended".

I was surprised, as I'd gotten no warnings from Twitter concerning any of my posts, other than this notice I once got from the thought-police department: "Most Tweeters don't post replies like this. We're asking Tweeters to review replies with potentially harmful or offensive language. Want to take another look before Tweeting?"

I didn't think my tweet was offensive and it broke no rules, so I posted it despite the A.I. generated attempt to censor me. Nothing more was heard of it. I continued posting news articles and commentaries from a libertarian and conservative perspective. I never posted anything that could be considered "hate speech". I never bullied anyone. I did my best to make sure my posts were factual. I played by their rules, even refraining from posting some things on Twitter that I posted on true free speech platforms such as GAB and Brighteon. My account was suspended anyway. I assume I was kicked out due to my persistent protests of the misinformation, propaganda, and outright lies being vomited out every day by deep state hacks and the useful Communist idiots they employ. I went after the big guns on Twitter: Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, The Democratic Party, Adam Kinsinger, George Takei, Hakeem Jeffries, Ted Lieu, and Lincoln Project founder Rick Wilson. I suspect one of them got tired of me exposing their nonsense and then took steps to get rid of me. 

I appealed my permanent suspension and asked what I had done wrong to warrant the action. I've received no reply. It made me wonder what Musk meant when he said "To be super clear, I'm pro free speech, but against anti-Semitism of any kind". Nothing I ever tweeted was "anti-Semitic", so his claim of being "pro free speech" seems hollow and fake.

To make sure my case wasn't an isolated incident, I went on other social media platforms and heard from several other people who had also been suspended from Twitter. None of them knew why. All of them are libertarians and conservatives. This is interesting because socialists, communists, and deep-state propagandists don't seem to be getting suspended or shadow-banned. But a conservative (Olivia Krolczyk) who complained about pedophilia permanently lost her account? How does this make any sense unless Twitter and Musk aren't being honest about the purpose of the platform?

We really shouldn't be surprised by the decisions made by Twitter. Despite his grand promises, Musk hired Linda Yaccarino as the company's CEO. Yaccarino previously worked on a covid vaccine propaganda campaign for Joe Biden and she's also been linked to the dreaded World Economic Forum. Choosing someone with that sort of history suggests Musk never was serious about free speech. In my opinion he's using free speech as bait to get conservatives to come back to Twitter. He needs more people to be active on the platform so he can generate ad revenue, and he needs to please the deep state to keep his business operating. Keep in mind his business is more than just Twitter; he also relies on government contracts and subsidies for Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink, and The Boring Company, and he needs government approval for his Neuralink brain implants. So while Musk may truly believe in free speech, at least for himself, he can't remain as the world's richest man if the bites the hands that feed his projects.

But he can bite Twitter users without fear or explanation. And he does, frequently.

Joe Biden Gaslights Us About Censorship & The Canceling of History.

A few days ago on Twitter, Joe Biden or his handlers posted this: "At a time when some seek to ban books and bury history, we're making it clear that we can't just choose to learn what we want to know. We should learn everything - the good, the bad, and the truth of who we are as a nation. That's what great nations do."

We're all used to Biden's lies. Rarely a day goes by without something dishonest slipping past his lips. But this particular post really fired me up. Since his installation as President in 2021, he has worked harder to censor free speech than any other President in history. He has bullied social media networks to silence dissenting opinions, he has weaponized the DOJ to go after his political opponents, and he has stayed silent as his allies in the Democratic Party have pushed the cancel-culture woke agenda across America. 

Biden's attempts to censor have been so aggressive and dangerous that when a federal appeals court was hearing the Justice Department’s appeal of a July 4 decision in Missouri v. Biden, Federal Judge Terry Doughty’s opinion condemned the Biden administration for potentially “the most massive attack against free speech in United States’ history.” The case involved Biden's attempts to bully social media companies into suppressing millions of posts and comments by Americans.

In another case, America First Legal (AFL) filed a lawsuit against the US Department of State, alleging covert activities surrounding the Biden administration’s outsourcing of censorship through the Global Engagement Center (GEC). AFL says GEC was hired to enable the outsourcing of the Biden administration’s propaganda and censorship efforts to leftist nonprofit groups. Critics go on to say, “Citing ‘misinformation,’ ‘disinformation,’ and ‘malinformation’ as a pretext, the Biden Administration has launched an unprecedented assault against the First Amendment. (source: ReclaimTheNet.org)

Biden's continuous attacks against free speech make his tweet about banning books seem disingenuous, at best.

But what about his tweet saying others are trying to "bury history"? Is he being honest about that? Sadly, no. Biden is referring to the Florida State Board of Education's new curriculum that says “slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit.” The radical left, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris included, have worked overtime lying about the curriculum and claiming it requires students to be taught that slavery itself was a good thing. Anyone with more than a couple of brain cells can see through the left's dishonesty and understand what's really being taught in Florida: slaves did in fact learn useful skills while working for others. We can say that while still condemning the hideousness of slavery. The left wants us to ignore the truth and pretend nothing positive came out of slavery, because that's the politically correct way to think. But anyone who has suffered hardships in life knows they learned something in the process and possibly came out the other side a better person...stronger if nothing else. This applies whether the hardship was slavery, prison, the onset of a physical handicap, the death of a child, or even a really bad relationship. I don't wish any of those things on anyone, but when it does, you do your best, you endure, you learn, and you move on. What you shouldn't do is turn it into an opportunity for political gain.

Since Biden is accusing his opponents of burying history and saying we "should learn everything - the good, the bad, and the truth of who we are as a nation", let's see how that's worked out so far. Here are a few reminders of the radical left embracing the exact opposite of Biden's words, tearing down historical statues in a short-sighted effort to bury the past to better suit their Marxist agenda:

Portland, Oregon: Thomas Jefferson statue toppled by BLM supporters:

Minneapolis, Minnesota: Christopher Columbus statue knocked over by leftists & native Americans:

Salisbury, North Carolina: Confederate statue removed by city officials to appease the left:

Denver, Colorado: Confederate statue removed by city officials to appease the left.

As is typical, Joe Biden is being dishonest and deceptive when he talks about book bans, censorship, and American history. But we needn't be surprised. Those who push the poison of Marxism, whether they call themselves progressives, Democrats, socialists, or communists, rarely struggle with ethics, morality, or the truth. In their world, the end always justifies the means, and if that means silencing their opponents and rewriting history, they're all for it.

I leave you with this quote from Lee Hyeon-seo, a political activist who defected from North Korea:

"In communism, we never had any freedom - of movement, of speech, of press. We didn't even make own decisions for our lives, our future. We were human robots."

Governments Are Waging War On Internet Anonymity.

Governments around the world are attacking online anonymity. They are attempting to pass legislation that would require a government-issued or approved photo ID in order to gain access to social media sites. Some US states are also proposing ID requirements to view websites with 33% or more "adult content", but the definition of adult content is left purposely vague and could include virtually anything at the discretion of the "authorities".

In the same way that government-sponsored terrorism was used to enact anti-privacy rules in the financial realm (so-called "Know Your Customer" rules) governments use fear-based excuses to destroy our freedom, and internet anonymity is no exception. This time, children are being used, with politicians claiming we must protect the young ones from online hate, bullying, and porn. While these are valid arguments, locking down the internet to anyone who is unwilling or unable to satisfy government requirements is like killing a mosquito with a cannon. And it's not the government's job to protect us from web content. If children are viewing things they shouldn't be seeing, then it's the parent's job to monitor and control their children's internet browsing. And content filters are available to help parents keep their kids safe.

But this isn't about keeping kids safe. It's about ending anonymity for everyone, including whistleblowers, battered women hiding from their abusers, and political dissenters. It would mean everything you post online could be tied back to your employer, your bank, law enforcement, and eventually, your social credit score. It would have a chilling effect on bloggers, investigative reporters, and other content producers who work to expose the government's crimes. And it would put people at risk of losing their jobs if they dared to criticize their employers. 

Online anonymity creates a unique set of challenges that society has to deal with. But ending that anonymity would create even worse challenges, including unchecked abuses of power, self-imposed censorship, and the end of open and free debates. 

Write to your representatives and demand that they keep their hands off the internet and let it be the free and private community space that it was designed to be.

The Evolution Of The Liberal Mind.

I've always identified as a liberal libertarian, meaning I've worked for equality and for creating a social safety net for people who hit hard times, but I've insisted those goals be reached in a financially responsible way and with as little government involvement as possible. I'm unaffiliated with any political party, because I like to vote for candidates who seem to support my ideas and principles. None of the three largest political parties (Democratic, Republican, Libertarian) has consistently offered up candidates who I could feel comfortable with. As a result, I've campaigned for candidates from all three parties, including Barack Obama and Donald Trump. I've said all that because I expect someone will read this post questioning the liberal mind and immediately write me off as a "right-wing conservative", when in reality I've voted for many liberal candidates but can no longer do so.

Let me explain why.

Not so many years ago, the Democratic Party, and the liberals who occupied it, strongly believed in freedom, free speech, peace, and tolerance. When the GOP wanted to hand the internet over to big corporations, the Democrats demanded it remain open and free of corporate influence. Documentaries made by liberals exposed the power-grabs and corruption by Big Pharma, agricultural & chemical companies, and the military industrial complex. Wars were protested, especially Vietnam and Bush Jr's illegal invasion of Iraq. Liberals wanted everyone to live together in harmony, with mutual respect and dignity for all. All problems could be talked through. That's what intelligent adults do, right?

What happened?

Today, liberals are demanding censorship of the internet, books, movies, and even classic TV shows produced decades ago. Huge international companies are now being defended. I know people who used to attack Pfizer as an evil drug pusher who now label its critics as misinformation agents. The "live and let live" hippies of the 1970's now live in gated communities and have surveillance cameras watching every inch of their properties. The kind, gentle souls who thought Howard Dean could change America now practically froth at the mouth while yelling obscenities at anyone who dares to disagree with them. And war is now cool, or at least the horrors of it are completely justified as long as their chosen leader (falsely) claims the war is being fought for "democracy". But isn't that the same reason Bush gave for attacking Iraq? That reason wasn't good enough in 2003. 

It's hard to wrap my head around how liberals have changed so much. The anger and intolerance I see from the left is especially disturbing.  And the ignorance is overwhelming. Take a look at these Twitter posts:

How can Marmae believe such nonsense? Does this person have no knowledge of NATO's history? Is Marmae unaware that actual, real Nazi's are fighting for Ukraine? Is he/she ignorant of the fact that the United States and NATO nations start the vast majority of all wars? 

Apokryf is also supporting the war, saying it's a "fight for the shape of the world". What is he trying to say? It sounds like an endorsement of the wealthy elite's New World Order. How does that square up with traditional liberal values?

Francesca has deluded herself into thinking Biden's war has brought respect to America, when in reality we're not respected anywhere anymore. The fact that other nations happily take our money doesn't mean they respect us.

Baldé wants every single person who voted for Trump "thrown behind bars". He doesn't say why. He doesn't mention due process. He just wants them locked up, you know, like they do in all totalitarian fascist nations. 

The radical shift I've seen from Democrats and other liberals makes no sense. How can people be so easily manipulated into thinking war is peace, oppression is freedom, ignorance is strength, and corruption is okay as long as their selected leader is the one doing it? I voted for Obama once, but I backed off when I saw how fake he was. I voted for Trump, but I won't do it again unless he apologizes for the deadly vaccines he still brags about it to this day. I learn as I go along. But liberal America seems to have lost its critical thinking skills and now operates with a herd mentality, more like Star Trek's Borg than intelligent individuals. 

They've become a cult. And an ignorant, hateful cult at that. I want no part of it.

The Digital Identity: The Population Control Network.

In the very near future, if the globalists have their way, everything you do will be tracked and controlled using your government mandated digital ID. Without it you won't be able to work, use the internet, perform banking transactions, travel, or even buy food. This is the world being built for you, without your knowledge, input, or permission. In this video Dave Cullen lays it all out for you. This will be the future if we don't stop it right here, right now. See what it's all about and then spread the word to anyone willing to listen.
