Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | GAB [Weirddave]Gotta love the free market. There is finally an alternative to social media outlets like Twitter that takes a firm stand against corporate censorship. This new platform is called GAB and you can find it here. The site is not specifically conservative in orientation (although a lot of conservative and libertarian types have gravitated to it), but it is aggressively free speech orientated. From their guidelines page: Gab's mission is to put people and free speech first. We believe that the only valid form of censorship is self-censorship, an individual's own choice to opt-out. Gab empowers users to self-censor and remove unwanted followers, words, phrases, and topics they don't want to see in their feeds to help stop and prevent different forms harassment. However, we do take steps to protect ourselves and our users from illegal activity.They are currently in beta, if you go to their page you can request an invite by entering your email address. I just got my invite, if any of you Morons decide to start a GAB account, feel free to add me as a friend (@weirddave). GAB works pretty much like Twitter, with additional options for you to control your own content. Here is GAB's founder, Andrew Torba, talking about their free speech mission. Open thread until the ONT pops up. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

We've known that it was only a matter of time before a twitter alternative sprung forth, especially given their penchant for pissing people off, but this might be too much like twitter.
You can use 300 characters rather than 140 and you can upvote or downvote the Gabs. Other than that, the layout is the same, they use hashtags, you can reply or repost. The dude is openly taunting Jack. I predict a lawsuit. Posted by: Niedermeyer's Dead Horse at August 28, 2016 07:37 PM (SEXy3) 10

Adopting the left's language, such as calling a he a she because he is delusional, only reinforces and perpetuates their anti-science, anti-rational, social control mechanisms and social engineering.
From the Daily Signal: ... sexual orientation is an innate, biologically fixed human property - born that way- is not supported by scientific evidence. ... belief that gender identity is an innate, fixed human property...so that a person might be a 'man trapped in a woman's body' or [vice versa] - us not supported by scientific evidence. ... There is no evidence that children who express gender-atypical thoughts or behavior will continue to do so into adolescence ...Non-heterosexual and transgender people [do] have higher rates of mental health problems...than the general population.

I see the Fed is also talking about buying corporate debt (private bonds). This is not legal per the Federal Reserve Act. But the Fed has pretty much free reign to interpret that Act any damn way it wants without consequence. Much of the shit they did in response to '08 was illegal, like monetizing the MBS crap.
So now, all the cronies can just Bukakke all over Queen Janet and she'll monetize it. Elite opinion is the shitty economy is all our fault, the rubes and peasants, the unwashed.

Lizzy put up a link yesterday, I think, about a couple of trans women who now have regrets. I think the saddest thing of the whole article was a teenage girl who was pissed at her parents for not allowing her to get reassignment surgery. She wanted it because three other girls in her close circle of friends were already having it done. Getting sexual reassignment surgery because all the cool kids are doing it, and it's being pushed by the educational establishment. Insanity!

Note they mentioned transmitter power in that article. If it's a regular isotropic (spherical) beacon, it would take a Type II civ. to be able to muster the power. If it's beamed right at our solar system, it would still take a Type I.
This is something a lot of the SETI types gloss over. Signals such as we emit would be far too weak over the background noise to detect. Posted by: publius (not Breitbart publius) at August 28, 2016 08:02 PM (DW+jj) 52

Twitter was open to a wide array of expression until it wasn't. This is true, but I don't recall them staking out this kind of pro-free-speech, anti-censorship position either. Plus this is being established specifically as a non-fascist platform as an alternative to the thought-policed Twatter forum. Straying from that would likely cost him his entire target market.

I just got home from five hours at a housewarming party with friends I hadn't seen most of the year. I've been a bit shell-shocked from the year's (personal sphere) events, and they'd been looking to sell and move and only recently got resettled, so...yeah. Got to shake off the isolation for a while today. Dad was squared away, knew where I was and how to get me, and all was well. Also, I need to find where I can get Firefly. A good day, all told.

24 Trannies are fundamentally unhappy people who seize on the transexual pop-sci as their solution, until they find out that they're still fundamentally unhappy people even after the pretense of becoming a different person. I had some teenagers (scouts) inform me about a former troop member who decided that he was a female trapped in a male body and was getting things lined up to "transition". He's probably 14 or 15 years old. I replied, "So, you're telling me he's mentally ill?" They were horrified. I pressed on, "If he were cutting himself, I dare say you might consider him to be mentally ill. How does the fact that he will rely on agents to cut him and inject him with hormones relieve him of that diagnosis?" No answer, but perhaps some rethinking...

The thing is Krebs is that the homomafia has succeeded in normalizing mental illness by pressuring everyone under the guise of fairness. That's why I was so pissed when the BSA caved.

One responded to a comment of mine by calling me a "gash" and saying he didn't know how men could stand to marry the things. I reported it. Nothing happened. Today I check it out, and he's still there (along with the other two or three), spamming, personal attacking, and trolling. I wrote to the contact address at PJ Media. Tonight I get on and someone has said he doesn't want his daughter sharing bathrooms with men, or some such, and this guy replies, "Your daughters crack probably stinks. No one would want her anyway." I reported that, too, and heaven knows what all I've missed, since I haven't read all of the thread. (Kind of pointless, since this guy and one or two others just respond to every post with personal attacks, so the whole thread belongs to them.) What the heck is going on? Happy to say that Ace is still my favorite site, where men are men and don't stand by and allow this sort of thing. I swear, it's going to get to where Ace is the ONLY place worth going to.

PJ Media is what has me so frustrated at the moment.I reported it. Nothing happened. Posted by: Alana Disqus comments. Notorious for trolls parachuting into sites since they have a standing account, and volume posting for postcount++ cred. Has destroyed the comments in every site that uses them. Which is kinda the idea, since the next step in this game is "Oh noes! These comments are so horrid!" and go complete Althouse and just turn them off. And then the site dies because no one reads it.

The only political place I comment anymore is here and Insty. It's been that way for years. HotAir's comments section has always had an average IQ of around 95, and frankly I think they were pretty high up the scale before they burned it all down with FB comments. Insty's been annoying me for the last year or two as Reynolds basically lost interest, and it became an Amazon blog. Posted by: IllTemperedCur at August 28, 2016 10:08 PM (LuZz8) 242

Gotta say, I agree. The Soros trolls are coming out in mass numbers now. Is it because they are scared of *it* winning in Nov? This place is the best place I know of for comments now. I check out Trumps FB posts and there are a flood of trolls on there now, too. You sure can tell who the Soros/Hill people are, too. Weapons grade stupid. It's like they are slogan machines. And hot air? They hate Trump. We. Get. It. Stopped going there months ago when Trump won his first primary. I went to the other end of the scale with Breit and Gateway. Gateway sure like saying "WOW!" a lot tho. Comments here are the best, everywhere else is troll infested now, thanks Georgie! If you ask me, Soros is the real potus, now.

Honestly? Can't say I've been impressed by Gab. The UI kinda sucks and Torba owns and ad company and seems pretty incompetent to me.
I was #70 on the list...and the launch was a disaster. Torba didn't reserve admin handles, so we had trolls (posing as Torba) running around posting gore. Torba didn't have the ability to ban them. The site is literally a bootstrap default theme, so it's almost a one-click install...yet there was no ToS, SSL was broken, no trending hashtags, and no DM's on launch. Also, every time I (or someone else) ask Torba a question about security, like IP encryption or warrant canaries...he gives me the run around. He called me 'hypercritical' when I called him out for ignoring those kinds of questions. See link here: http://tinyurl.com/zjeapnu I honestly think it might be a cash grab.

He also seems to have something against anonymity judging by his latest response to me.
I've 'reached out' several times (via public forums), but he keeps trying to get me to PM him. Posted by: lefthand at August 29, 2016 02:27 PM (4jam+) 249
