Facebook Isn't Just Blocking Conservative Media -- It's Censoring Conservative Postings By Individuals, Too

"Liberals" are now required to stop making movies about the Hollywood 10.

We've seen how they behave the moment they have power to suppress someone else's speech -- they are more eager censors than HUAC ever dreamed of being.

Speaking of censorship, I wonder if SJW morons are going to try to shut down the AVGN for having the gall to say that he isn't going to review the new Ghostbusters movie because he isn't going to watch it.

16 It seems odd to me that, given the power, these progressives are doing the very things they said we Socons would do. I've never to my memory written or said offensive things online. Yet if I spoke my thoughts on current issues, I most likely would be on the censored list. Because I think unpopular thoughts and have unpopular suggestions in regards to popular causes. I wonder how far they will take the whole group-think thing? I know it has cost some people their jobs.


I wonder if soon it will deny you entrance to college, or access to organizations or clubs. I know that some schools have their accreditation in jeopardy because they are of a certain persuasion not in favor with the "liberal thinkers". Because we are the closed-minded ones.

72 Google and Twitter are also implicated in the conservative blocking. Google News has rejected numerous conservative media sources, claiming they express opinion that is blended in news stories and that's in there policies for Google News aggregation.

But check out "Blue Nation Review" - a news source Google totally approves of. It's actually part of the Hillary Clinton campaign, as it was purchased by David Brock and is being run with current and former Clinton staffers to write "news stories" that merely plant narratives in the media, and then get copied by other "real" news outlets since the news has been broken.

It's utter fraud, but Google is working hard to elect Hillary. CEO Schmidt funded a special big data corporation just to give Hillary's campaign insights into data that nobody else has, leveraging the power of Google.

Someone took that down.

A little retrospective:
1. Saudi jihadis kill 3000+ American citizens and residents on a beautiful morning in September in the greatest terrorist attack in decades, and the President of the U Effing nited States terms islam a religion of peace.
2. Election time 2008 and "opposition" party token candidate assures the US we have NOTHING.TO.FEAR from a candidate with the middle name HUSSEIN in the White House (this while body bags are being shipped back to the US from our Bush adventure in Iraq).
3. Election time 2012 and in spite of clear evidence of corruption and malfeasance in high office Caliph Barack is re-elected.
4. Election time 2016 and a Democrat candidate responsible for blood on the walls of a US compound in Libya and of collecting millions of dollars in baksheesh via her sale of the country is still the leading candidate.

So no, I don't think anything is going to be done about anything!

Since it was in Austin, I kinda' doubt it was you, but thought I'd ask.

This is why the Koch brothers are pieces of shit, in my opinion. If they were really wanted to advance freedom, it's obvious they should invest in alternative social media and news media.

Kock brothers' pac's are stupid. What a waste of money, unless your interest is in buying influence.

Get the new Mark IV Autocucumber from Husqvarna! Its 40.8 cc engine packs a lot of horsepower in a small package! And it's a 4-stroke engine, so you don't have to mix oil with the gas, nor do you miss 2 strokes. Your hand will get tired before it does! Only $249.95 at selected Husqvarna dealers.


Not sold at Target and WalMart.

Saw both.

Revenant: political content level = maximum. The director eschewed the historically accurate narrative for one that highlighted "racism," his words. But art direction and cinema are well done.

The Witch:

Yeah, well, it is successful in the sense that the intention of the writer and director were delivered quite convincingly to the screen. It does seem to have a heavy dose of anti-Christianity but the horror narrative ending kind of bites itself in the ass.

Not sure on this. I liked the visuals, music, and the dialogue. It's not for everyone for sure, but if you like slow-paced creepshows, you could do worse.

179 "The U.S. Senate unanimously backed President Barack Obama's nomination
of Eric Fanning as secretary of the Army on Tuesday, making him the
first openly gay leader of a U.S. military service branch."

Fanning has essentially no relevant qualifications for that post.

He's a professional homosexual rights activist, and that's about it.

Great to see how the Republicans in the Senate are on the job when it comes to those "advise and consent" responsibilities.

223 Bad as Fanning is, the one who takes the cake is SECNAV Ray Mabus.

The interview with Mabus (still up on the sidebar, the link about "green energy saves Marines' lives) is just jaw-dropping in its imbecility.

It's hard to pick a favorite, there are so many clueless non sequiturs and outright unfactual lies in the thing. This one really stood out, though:

"...you're retiring ships all the time when they reach the end of their lifespan."

Gosh, Ray. How about the _Spruances_, virtually all of which had one to two decades of hull life left when they were all abruptly decommissioned and turned into artificial reefs? How about the early _Ticonderogas_, similarly pulled? What about the various nuclear surface combatants that Democrats got rid of, also at relatively young ages?

And, not a peep in the article about the Little Crappy Ship disaster. There are still two LCSes laid up quayside with catastrophic propulsion system failures that will cost nearly as much to fix as the vessels themselves had originally cost to procure. Not to mention that one of the things is stuck in Singapore and will be expensive as hell to cart back Stateside.

With a 3-D printer, an upper and a parts kit, you can be your own gun maker. At least if you want an AR-15 type weapon. For a Kalashnikov, you don't need a 3-D printer but you do need to be able to bend and weld steel.

262 lawyers can suck it. We had to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit that was bullshit.

Yeah, a company I was with settled a discrimination suit, just because it cost less to settle than fight. The claim was total bullshit.

We really, really need a 'Loser Pays' system.

276 Instead of "too big to fail" we should think in terms of "too big to succeed". It seems the fashion these days for large corporations to engage in 100% gratuitous social engineering. Target, Starbucks, Amazon, Homo Depot, Macys, twitter, Facebook, etc. The boycott of Target should continue no matter what they do about bedicked trannies. They've shown that power has gone to their heads and they can't be trusted. Support small businesses, even if it costs a bit more.

Not really in Oregon, no. I especially love how they always wait
until the end of the night to "count" Portland-area ballots to make sure
the rest of the state is adjusted for in the results.

Here is a rule of thumb that is pretty much always true: If it takes till after midnight to get the election results, that is because Democrats are committing vote fraud.


If you pay attention to which precincts come in last, they are Democrat precincts.

280 In Abolition of Man, Lewis notes that technology is not the power of humanity over nature. It is the power of some men over other men. And that's turning out to be the case.
Surveillance, pharmaceuticals, now this. I used to think Lewis might have been pessimistic. But humanity has managed to live down to his low expectations. #WASTF.

288 In Ray Bradbury's novel "Fahrenheit 451,"--the temperature at which "book paper" auto-ignites--Capt. Beatty, who is the chief book-burner, said, "If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none." That same sentiment was expressed by the Obama Administration, which told the Supreme Court in 'Citizens United' that, in its view, Congress could ban books."--Sen. Ted Cruz

289 I received a warning from Facebook while I was debating whether it was fair to associate Islam with terrorism. I said something like "When that nuclear bomb goes off, just try to act surprised."

Suddenly a message from Facebook appeared, warning me to be careful about my language. I wasn't blocked or anything, but it was still a bit alarming.

291 The point is u will never see fb censors warn any proggie friend of yours on fab posting something like "given these fundie Christians on abortion don't be surpised when a clinic blows up as we already have seen one recent shooting from a pp clinic, etc.

Iow, bc they view any criticism of Muslims as hate without reason, such a quip is defined as hate speechy, but their fantasy bigoted views on prolifera are ok and just observant of reality, etc. they view a spate of clinic bombings as plausible, bc they see anti abortionists as being crazy by definition.

So, with their typical lib hypocrisy, they will not warn leftist users in reverse with any fair handed nests.
