STOMPING ON FREE SPEECH IS A SIGN OF MASSIVE INSECURITY:  Why it doesn’t matter what Parler allowed.

It is also profoundly stupid, particularly for a party so sucker punched by the unexpected support for their opponent that they had to add last minute, clumsy fraud to what must already have been….. let me see if I remember “the most extensive and inclusive fraud organization ever employed in America.” Something like that.

Doing what they’re doing is akin to smashing the fire alarm and thinking this will keep you safe from fires.

HE’S NOT WRONG:  Political Reprisals and the Death of the Republic.

He is, however, missing the root cause of this.  When the electoral (and incidentally the judicial) system becomes so corrupt that a party can be assured of winning even if they run a potted plant and a blowup sex doll who campaign exclusively from the basement and promise to raise everyone’s taxes and keep them house arrest indefinitely, why not hold show trials? Why not cancel every “enemy’s” ability to access the net? Why not arbitrarily declare all ideas in opposition to your own seditious?

I mean — why not? If you’re utterly sure that you can retain power forever and the greatest danger is someone tumbling to the con, you are in fact going to move ahead with all the punishment, all the shutting down of speech, and the destruction of all opposition. Because that’s the only way you can retain power.

YES, I KNOW. A LOT OF YOU GO “BUT THAT’S NOT REAL FIGHTING.” YEAH.I GET IT. BUT INSURRECTIONS (WELL, THEY WANT ONE) NEED STRATEGY. IF YOU GO HOT NOW, AS THEY WANT, IT’S GOING TO BE A LONG, ARDUOUS MESS.  LET’S GET A LITTLE MORE SUPPORT. IT WON’T BE VERY LONG. I’M GIVING THIS THREE MONTHS:  Dance to the Line.

And if you think I’m just trying to hold people back? Not really. This thing is moving on its own train line, and what will happen will happen. I’m just advocating the tried and true tactics to make sure they’re over stretched and not functioning very well and that the majority of people actually know how evil they are.  Don’t believe me? Read The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress. Remember Heinlein RESEARCHED. Doing this and not doing this could be the difference between the suppression of the Prague Spring or soldiers refusing to shoot on their grandmothers at the end of the USSR.  Making the beast show its hideous face is needed.

GUYS, APPARENTLY THIS IS ALL LARRY CORREIA’S FAULT FOR GETTING AWAY FROM THE INTERNET FOR 48 HOURS: bow before AppGoogleZOn

YES, WHAT AMAZON DID WAS UNCONSCIONABLE. AND I’M NOT GOING TO DEFEND IT. IN FACT, IF I CAN GET A FEW MINUTE WHEN MY HUSBAND IS NEITHER WORKING NOR ASLEEP, I’M GOING TO HAVE A TALK ABOUT WHAT WE CAN BUY LOCALLY, ETC.  But there is something you must understand. Not only are web hosting and the ebook/kindle division not the same, but ebooks account for somewhere between 2% and 0.5% of Amazon’s income.  Yes, that’s still income.  But think about it. Right now a lot of indie writers have nowhere to go. And most of the successful ones are on the right. If we Boycott Amazon ebooks, they’ll hurt very little, but you’ll destroy several people on our side.

Yes, we absolutely need alternatives, and right now I’m involved in three discussions about how to start competition in indie ebook platforms (the existing ones are either terrible or very lefty, or both.) We could use a lottery win. Like all projects on the right, capital is a huge issue, since we are as you know the side of the “rich” (spits.)

However till competition is up and running, do not abandon indies.  We creatives on the right are persona non grata everywhere else. Don’t make it impossible for us to make a living.  (And seriously, when I was on all the other platforms, all of them combined made a tenth of what Amazon made.) I explain why in more detail, and link to some decent writers:   Vignettes by Luke, Mary Catelli and ‘Nother Mike and Book Promo and Some Blather By Sarah.

And please, please, please, any techies out there, make with the alternatives. That’s what you can do to help in this mess. And it’s very important.

AND THE RIGHT CORRECT PERSPECTIVE, WITHOUT ARNIE’S LEFTY PROJECTION:  The Reichstag Fire, and “killing democracy in order to ‘save’ it”.

ROUND THEM UP, ROUND THEM ON, RIDE ON:  Roundup.

OKAY I DISAGREE THAT THERE WAS ANY RIOT. ALSO THE ONLY DEAD AS A RESULT OF THE PROTEST WAS ASHLI BABBITT AND SHE WAS ONE OF THE PROTESTERS. THE REST IS UNCLEAR AND WE SURE DON’T HAVE PICTURES. HOWEVER THIS IS CORRECT IN THE ESSENTIALS:  What Happened At Capitol About More Than Election.

This is not about Trump. As in, at all. At this point it’s about Americans being disenfranchised, ignored and told they don’t matter. And note the answer from the left is to double down.

IT’S TIME:  Belly Up to the Bar.

BUT BUT BUT IT’S THE RIGHT THAT IS VIOLENT, RIGHT? INSURRECTIONISTS! RIOTERS!  OH, NEVER MIND:  Pro-Trump protesters in SoCal’s Pacific Beach targeted by AntiFa.

YOU GUYS THINK I’M JOKING, I KNOW, BUT I’M TELLING YOU IF THE LEFTY IDIOTS KEEP THEIR GRIP ON US LONG ENOUGH TO INSTITUTE ACTUAL POLICIES, THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WILL BE RUNNING THE OTHER WAY.  AND I DON’T MEAN LIKE THE ONES THAT RAN UNDER OBAMA BECAUSE THE JOBS HERE SUCKED. I MEAN MANY PEOPLE BORN AND RAISED AMERICAN WILL BE RUNNING FOR THE BORDER.  LEARN SPANISH NOW IF THAT’S YOUR STRATEGY: Mexican President Slams Social Media Censorship Of President Trump.

Me? No thank you. I’m in my country, and I’m not leaving.

WELL, OBVIOUSLY:  The claim that Parler represents some unique risk to public safety is a lie driven by politics.

Brace yourself for many, many, many such lies.  Eventually they will be about you.  And seriously, Parler guys, give us an address.  Crisp $100s in envelopes. We’ll get you funded.

I’D SAY ANDERSON COOPER NEEDS A SPANKING, BUT HE WOULD PROBABLY ENJOY THAT:  Anderson Cooper Needs To Go Back To Snootsville.

THEY CAN’T HELP THEMSELVES. ONCE YOU BELIEVE IN A WORLD DEFINED BY GROUPS COMPOSED OF INTERCHANGEABLE WIDGETS, THE MASS GRAVES ARE BAKED IN:  McCarthy Redux: The Left Is Making Lists.

I’m starting to think the only thing wrong with McCarthy was being much too late.

WELL! DON’T SAY THAT WHERE THE POTTED PLANT OR HIS SIDEKICK CAN HEAR YOU, YOU CRIMINAL THINKER YOU. NEXT THING YOU KNOW, YOU’LL BE BUYING A BUFFALO HEAD DRESS!  Media Hysteria And The Insurrection That Wasn’t.

TRULY! ALL IT HAS IS LIES AND FORCE. AND IT’S AFRAID:   Big Tech Purge Continues, Facebook Bans Walk Away Movement, Reddit Bans Pro-Trump Group, Twitter Purge Ongoing, Biden Labels Trump Supporters “Domestic Terrorists”.

Please, note this exquisite promise from the Pseudodent Select:

[Wall Street Journal] “Don’t dare call them protesters,” Mr. Biden said in remarks from Wilmington, Del. “They were a riotous mob. Insurrectionists. Domestic terrorists. It’s that basic. It’s that simple.”

BECOMES? BECOMES????  WHAT ARE YOU? RIP VAN WINKLE? Social Media Becomes 21st Century Pravda.

Look, I got banned for a week for talking about Eric Ciaramella! Even though the left had read his name as that of the “whistleblower.”  They will stomp on you if you post less than credulous mouth-breathing acquiescence with the ever changing Covid-19 dictatorship.  They will force you to remove anything that implies election fraud. AND you’re just now noticing?

THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND OFFENSIVE, ARNIE AND YOU KNOW IT TOO. GEH DICHSELBST EINEN BLASEN, ARNIE:  Schwarzenegger says Capitol raid like Kristallnacht; recalls father’s WWII guilt.

Marching on the capitol with grievances — to wit the certainty you were disenfranchised and that your courts and institutions betrayed you —  is totally like burning down or ransacking tens of thousands of private residences and synagogues, putting 30,000+ people in concentration camps (killing significant numbers.) Totally the same, Arnie.  You’re such a good German, Arnie. Just like your dad. (Yes, I do know he is Austrian. Do you know who else was Austrian?)

BE VERY VERY WARY OF WHAT THEY’RE PREPARED TO FAKE UP ON FAUX-NAUGURATION DAY:  National Guard Troops Deploying to DC Will Come With Lethal Weapons.

For perspective here guys: burn, loot, block highways, destroy public buildings all summer. You won’t even get condemned.  Trespass on the sacred halls of the left (and no matter how many ridiculous things they keep on adding, now, a posteriori — very posteriori, it’s total PFA — you know that no, there was no vandalism. There was buffalo guy in the Speaker’s podium, which is so American it makes me giggle) and next time they’re ready for you! With LETHAL weapons.

Trump, the new Hitler never sent people with lethal weapons to disperse the crowds that attacked the State of The Union guests, so the left had to do with crying about rubber bullets and gas. But the left? Ah, bring out the lethal weapons against American citizens who have done nothing violent.  But they already did that. Now it’s official. (Ashli Babbitt. Remember her. Say her name.)

The National Guard should be so proud if they get to shoot innocent civilians demonstrating. I bet their moms will be so proud!

Seriously? What insanity is this. What has (possibly literally) possessed the left?  The only thing I can think is they know how tenuous their grip is. Or, as one of my commenters routinely puts it “It’s afraid.”

WELL, I DON’T BELIEVE WE WILL TOLERATE THIS:  The new dark age of silencing.

AGAIN!  MY, SUCH AN ORDERLY “CHARGE”!  IF IT WEREN’T FOR THE MSM YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW THEY WERE RIOTING! SO PERHAPS YOU SHOUDN’T LISTEN TO THE MSM:  Video shows police officers stand by as rioters charge into US Capitol.

HE WAS SUCH A QUIET MAN, KEPT MOSTLY TO HIMSELF:  Jewish woman, 102, describes disturbing memory of her neighbor — Adolf Hitler.

Or not.

LACK OF LEADERSHIP AT THE UN?  HERE I THOUGHT TONIGHT I’D BE ABLE TO WASH & PRESS MY SHOCKED FACE:  Power struggle leaves UN rights body without leader.

And for the record? UN out of the US. US out of the UN. Let the global corruptocrats bury the global corruptocrats. We have plenty of national ones to deal with.

DON’T ROLL OVER AND SHOW BELLY, UNLESS YOU WANT THIS BOOT ON YOUR NECK:  China Uses Woke Excuses For Genocide.

WELL, WE’RE SCARED, BUT WE AIN’T SHAKING:  Night Terrors.
