If you are of the cracker race, you are charged with "white Privilege" at every turn. Did you or your father have anything to do with said imaginary privilege - highly unlikely yet the charge remains. I, also of the cracker race, vigorously reject the charge and will verbally attack anyone who levels it at me. This attack last happened with my daughter, she knows better now than to utter such bs in my presence again.

There are dark corners of the Internet where people with ahem very strong racial views live. Those people may think this current political climate is a good time to try to convince people to their view points.
But I suspect paid leftist trolls are the driving force here trying to deplatform conservatives in the run up the the election. Hard to say.

sent me some spam begging me to come in and test drive a new model and trade in my current car so they can re-list it. Late model, low mileage, very good condition. It would do well on their used car lot.
I am not in the market and wouldn't do anything other than mutter "nice try" under my breath anyway, but then I got to the come-on. They tell me "In most cases, we can keep your monthly payment about the same."
If they had bothered to even check their records, they'd know that I don't have it financed. I financed it at the dealer (part of their discount scheme) and paid it off within three months. They know this. They have the records. Yet they still send the boiler plate come-on.
Trying to talk people into eternal automotive debt prison is sleazy enough, but it's the laziness that bugs me. They could have tried a tack that would at least reveal that they had bothered to do even the small modicum of work required to not make me think that they take me for a fool.

Pete Buttigieg is writing a second book.
The former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, announced Wednesday that Trust: America's Best Chance will be released Oct. 6, less than a month before Election Day.
Buttigieg, a former 2020 presidential candidate who has helped fundraise for Joe Biden, said he is trying to "start a new conversation" about the lack of trust people have in U.S. institutions and in fellow citizens.
"Our democracy depends on high levels of trust," he said, "but social and political trust have been moving in the wrong direction."

Pixy appeared in the ONT comments a few nights ago, and I tried to give him a heads up on the VPN trolls giving you and the cobs an almost impossible task to clean up.
He probably never saw my comment, but I tried.
The IP address comment ID system/hashes was controllable when VPNs were unheard of, but they are now quite common. I have one, but rarely have it turned on here.
I'll gladly register here and keep the VPN off to comment here.

The former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, announced Wednesday that Trust: America's Best Chance will be released Oct. 6, less than a month before Election Day.
Buttigieg, a former 2020 presidential candidate who has helped fundraise for Joe Biden, said he is trying to "start a new conversation" about the lack of trust people have in U.S. institutions and in fellow citizens.
"Our democracy depends on high levels of trust," he said, "but social and political trust have been moving in the wrong direction."

1) Registration for commentors. Biggest downside I can see would just be it is a bar to entry. That is kind of the point, but you end up with more lurkers. And, to be fair, a lot on our side are skeptical of any kind of registration.
2) Empower trusted commentors to ban and delete posts. Biggest problem with this is when you give people power, some people go a bit wonky. Plus, everyone's idea of what is and what is not offensive might be different.
3) Shut down comments. Maybe go with a mirror site with no advertising in order to comment on? Biggest issue is that this is exactly what the trolls want. They want us to feel isolated, unable to communicate with each other and demoralized.
4) ace changes the AOSHQ to a My Little Pony fan page.

It's very likely they don't have a verification for paid off accounts, as I suspect it's a rare occurance.
Someone isn't pulling finance records, you are listed as a previous buyer and financer. and the list generates you as a lead every so often.
They normally offload the finance notes to a bank at some point, though 3 months is pretty quick, but it's possible they never knew you paid the note.
I get what you are saying though, its a different sales battlefield these days with all the data cutting for leads. Just more directed junk mailing.

He's right. But he doesn't get it. He understands that trust has been destroyed and that this is a seriously bad development, but he doesn't understand why. This is either because he is stupid or because he is dishonest. It could be both.
But he is correct that trust is shattered and no longer exists. Why should it? Every political and cultural institution has started lying with almost perfect consistency.
- Politicians claim to love America while executing a coup
- Politicians claim to be devout Catholics while championing abortion
- The press obfuscates only when they don't like
- The universities and schools teach that knowledge is ignorance, that slavery is freedom, that brute force is argument.
- Hollywood serves up pablum and calls it art.
- Industry outsources and offshores and thrusts communities into penury while saying it is for their own good.
- Banks tell you that you can afford things you can't and set you up for failure.
- Climatologists tell you that you're destroying the world, while conspiring to ensure their lies remain hidden.
The list goes on, more or less infinitely. And these people have the temerity to bemoan the loss of trust and wail that they don't understand why. They do understand, each and every one of them, at some level. They understand because they did it.

Also, if you look at commenting on sites that use Disqus, it makes it *easier* for a troll to disrupt because they add their obnoxious comments to every nested discussion. they will hang out in a thread and nip every blossoming discussion immediately.

When she asked me about it I pointed out she was Jewish (though not religious at all). But she didn't get why that was an issue...it was like playing whale songs for a dog.
Another funny story with her....she wasn't a very attractive woman. Poor fitting clothes, no make up, etc. I knew her in college and we had a big social event. And...she showed up dressed to the nines and it was like that scene from She's All That but for real.

2) Empower trusted commentors to ban and delete posts. Biggest
problem with this is when you give people power, some people go a bit
wonky. Plus, everyone's idea of what is and what is not offensive might
be different.
3) Shut down comments. Maybe go with a mirror site with no
advertising in order to comment on? Biggest issue is that this is
exactly what the trolls want. They want us to feel isolated, unable to
communicate with each other and demoralized.
4) ace changes the AOSHQ to a My Little Pony fan page.

Robert Redford says that he will vote for Joe Biden for president, warning in a new op ed that another four years of Donald Trump "would accelerate our slide toward autocracy."
"I don't make a practice of publicly announcing my vote. But this election year is different," Redford wrote in an essay published on CNN.com. "And I believe Biden was made for this moment. Biden leads with his heart. I don't mean that in a soft and sentimental way. I'm talking about a fierce compassion -- the kind that fuels him, that drives him to fight against racial and economic injustice, that won't let him rest while people are struggling."

In order to come up with a solution, I still need to understand the problem...
Of course we're going to get comments that go over the line of the current social norms. These have been eliminated in the past, if not within a few minutes then certainly within an hour or two.
What is the threat? Will the offending posters take a screenshot of the offensive comment and send it to Ace's advertisers saying that the whole blog is like that?
I would think the advertisers have a cursory knowledge of the tone and tenor of the blog, along with an idea of the demographic of the readership. Why would they drop the advertising on such a well known and established blog?
Sure, it must be a pain in the ass policing the comments, but Ace can add a few, level headed readers to help sort out the crazies.
At least that's how it seems to a confused old deaf person.

- they could be furloughed in October, the clearest signal yet of how
deeply the virus pandemic is hurting the airline industry. The outlook
for a recovery in air travel has dimmed in just the past two weeks, as
infection rates rise in much of the U.S. and some states impose new
quarantine requirements on travelers. United officials said Wednesday
that they still hope to limit the number of layoffs by offering early
retirement benefits, and that 36,000 is a worst-case scenario.

Most politicians would love this as long as it doesn't have their fingerprints on it. Why ?Because, when you simplify any of the laws, especially tax law, it resets are the favors that have been handed out over decades. Each and every business and industry has to come back to these politicians asking for their favorite niche to be restored.
This is what happened when Reagan simplified the tax code.

The term is "moby" for a leftist posing as a fake right-winger.
And yeah. I'm pretty sure it's mobys. That is the left's standard trick.
For example, they just banned "TheDonald," the biggest conservative subreddit, from Reddit.
When asked to justify the original threat to ban, the Reddit honchos said it was because of "racism" in the comments. "What racism? Show us examples." said the commenters on The Donald.
Silence, at first.
And then TOTALLY BY SHEER COINCIDENCE a few hours later a barrage of "Stormfront" and "Klan" folks showed up and un loaded a doo-doo-pile of phony-sounding racist comments. "There -- THERE are the racist comments we were referring to!" said the Reddit honchos (who themselves ad been the ones posing as Stormfront). "You violated the anti-racism terms, and now you are banned."
The Left does this to every single site they want cancelled.

Yup. It would be self-limiting. If you forbid omnibus repassage (e.g., they must be brought up, debated and passed individually), then the legal code can only grow so much before everyone runs out of time. It is an excellent notion. I'll bet that Congress could handle the truly important renewals in 25% of their time, maybe a third. If they choose to spend it all renewing nonsense, then at least they're not passing new nonsense.

US Government willing to sacrifice an individual to save a trade deal with China. I forget what Redford said exactly, but one of his main points was that the US Govt was willing to let his former protégé (Brad Pitt) rot in a Chinese prison so that we could get cheaper toasters.
That movie opened my eyes when it came out and it is still one of my favorites. I think that is one of the last movies where China is shown for how awful is.

Gunmen opened fire on the vehicle and shot at least eight rounds near the spot where Brooks was killed by a cop on June 12
Police say they are looking for at least four persons of interests in Secoriea Turner's killing
The Wendy's turned into a protest site and was patrolled by armed individuals in the wake of Brooks's death

Yes, so many shows that came and went quickly. I hardly remember some of them now.

Interestingly, they wrote and I think filmed an ending, should they be cancelled early.. and then used it.

Prior to Operation Barbarossa there was a big debate in the Soviet Union as to whether Hitler and the NAZIs were what communist would look like in a developed country...because remember Marxism said that communism would come out of advanced countries not....Russia and China.
Obviously that debate ended in 1941.
But fascism comes from Mussolini who was a committed socialist. So the notion that fascism is somehow the polar opposite of communism never made any sense.
It would be like arguing that Lutheranism and Catholicism were opposites. And in the 1500s you'd probably find people trying to make it.

Meh. If Hitler hadn't launched Barbarossa, it might never have happened. Remember, the USSR is the *only* country in the world to have cut a deal with every single major belligerent power.
Now, both forms of socialism are of course expansionist and if both had survived, they would surely have clashed eventually. But I am not sure it would have been ideological so much as practical.

Yes. The "fascists are right-wing" thing is the greatest lie ever told. They weren't *Marxists*. That is all. They are absolutely socialists, and the smarter ones at that.
They understood - especially the Italians who invented fascism - that if Marx had been right, WWI would have resulted in communist revolution. It didn't. It turns out that people's national identity is too important. The poor and misbegotten hordes went into a generation-destroying war for G-d and Country, and class took a back seat. According to Marx, that shouldn't have happened.
So Marx was wrong. Some socialists ignored it (Lenin), and some came to terms with it and reinvented socialism along national lines (the fascists).

Might want to consider doing something on David Rubin's "locals" community thing where we can support aoshq via monthly subscription and they'd be more of a known income stream. The comments there are even editable and you can post pictures and links. Or not, there's something about pixy's place that makes aoshq somewhat unique.

I would think the advertisers have a cursory knowledge of the tone and tenor of the blog, along with an idea of the demographic of the readership. Why would they drop the advertising on such a well known and established blog?
Sure, it must be a pain in the ass policing the comments, but Ace can add a few, level headed readers to help sort out the crazies.
At least that's how it seems to a confused old deaf person.
Posted by: jwest at July 08, 2020 03:44 PM (mrrpT)
Yes, yes they will. That's why the Mobys moby.
Most of the advertisers probably don know that their ads appear on AOS. Ace deals with "adservers" which are basically AI robots that attempt to serve ads relevant to the content they read.
My suggestion to Ace? Shit-can the adservers, and sell ad space on the page directly to advertisers. They get hunk of the screen real estate to display their ad, and a link to their home page. Valu-Rite would be a good prospect. Black Rifle Coffee? Gun and ammo dealers? Meat vendors?
And "flat" ads on the home page will get by the ad-blockers, so guys like me (who hits tip jar occasionally) will see them. Win, win.

*************
In theory this might be better, but practically speaking direct ad sales are a dying industry. I'm in this industry myself and can barely get anyone to sell ads directly because there are too many variables, especially when it's a smaller business that knows fuck all about creating properly sized ad creatives. It's just easier and preferred to advertise on an exchange.
What advertisers do to help prevent ads from showing on sites they don't want to see it on is employ filters and blacklists. This was happening for any mention of the virus as a lot of advertisers took the lazy way out rather than chance their ads being on sites peddling fake information about the virus (like you know, the new york times).

The Federalist and Zero Hedge were both threatened by Google Ads. Stephen Molyneaux just got purged from YouTube and Twitter so he's completely banned from the main internet.
This Communist Un-personing Train has no brakes, with or without people further to your Right. I am sympathetic, but understand the time to take a stand against this brutal e-censorship was when registrars started taking down domains in August of 2017. Only Tucker Carlson did. The rest of the Right hid under their beds and pretended the commissars wouldn't come for them because it was just those icky guys further to their Right who got the ax. That was not the case.
This is the "I didn't speak up and then there was no one to speak up for me" thing. The Right needs to rally around free speech for everyone and stop hoping the alligator will spare them. It won't.
If God forbid the worst happens and your ads go away, here's a guide to Bitcoin. Just put it in DuckDuckGo and you'll get the links. Yes they're from places further to your Right but it's good information.

The more I think about this, the more I don't hate it. It would ensure 1) a small income stream for Ace, 2) that everyone has at least nominal skin in the game, and 3) as stated, a barrier to entry for all but the most dedicated trolls.
The way I imagine it working is that on payment, I get a random (but easy to remember, e.g. "correcthorsebatterystaple") password that has to be attached to each comment submitted. Anyone determined to be an abuser has his password invalidated and further comments get automatically bit-bucketed.

Not sure if it was on Fox or somewhere else, but Whedon's Dollhouse was an interesting concept that lasted a little over one full season.
Interestingly, they wrote and I think filmed an ending, should they be cancelled early.. and then used it.
Posted by: BurtTC at July 08, 2020 03:53 PM (hku12)
For the Sci-fi loving Morons here - you should check out the Expanse on Amazon. It's some of the best Sci-Fi I've seen in a while, the first season is confusing and a bit cold-blooded killing off characters- but that slows down and the story is really interesting. Some crazy lefty takes on interplanetary government and religion- but the story is so well written they kind of self-own when write the leftist BS kind of accurately.

CTH uses a system like that, where comments are approved, until proven trustworthy. But then, I got banhammered for disagreeing with a mod and providing actually statutory back-up. So nothing is perfect.
Perhaps a small donation to weed out the mobys and stormfronters, at least. Then at least Ace has some financial record of a commenter if they go off like MUMR or a gang of mobys trying to get advertisers to cancel.

Right and left are both authoritarian ideologies. Right wing however, is nationalist and believes in maintaining national culture and traditions. This is an overlap with conservative, but not the same thing.
The right in the US is not the same as the right elsewhere because freedom is a given in the US (was, anyway) and so right and left was only in the context of freedoms and not authoritarianism.
In fact, in the US the left has moved toward eliminating freedoms and so is more authoritarian making the right wing in the US the non-authoritarian exception to that whole system of classification.
It gets a little more complicated when you confuse *state* authority with church, and family authority. The Left wants the state to have more power but portrays the right as being authoritarian because they want to stick to traditional values and and traditional family authorities. Some on the right do call for laws to protect those rights, but that is minor (laws for prayer in school would be an example.) Abortion is not in this discussion although many on the left see this as right wing authoritarianism and control of a women's body. They think that way because they completely dismiss the baby as having rights.
One further complication is that the left often leans toward libertinism in matter of drug use and sex. This mostly has to do with their young and ignorant demographic and their low key goal of destroying traditional society. Here the right is calling for more state authority (to define a person's sex, to restrict drug use,...) as part of maintaining traditional society but even though this the the biggest tent in the marxist circus, it is really just a sideshow and does not reflect on their larger goals of total control of the public.

Posted by: ace
My suggestion, which is sort of an anti-suggestion, is to do what I did with zombietime:
Give up attempting to "monetize" blogging. I never ran ads on zombietime, ever, and never made a dime from it. Just shelled out an (admittedly tiny) amount of $ every month for the hosting. THEN, to "pay for" it all, and to "make a living," I literally did "get another job."
It actually was much less hassle and much less time-consuming and much more profitable than trying to wrestle with monetizing the internet.
So my suggestion is: Try to get a decent-paying part-time (or ultra-part-time) job that pays enough to get by, and/or that would approximately replace lost ad revenue. Then you can cease worrying about advertisers.
Yes, you'll have less time for blogging, but hopefully not catastrophically less.
Also: Feel free to dismiss this suggestion as absurd, if you think it's absurd.

1) Fundraising - which can be done in a number of ways to as simple as making your paypal account more prominent and running "drives" to something more complex like Patreon.
2) Selling Merch - Get a graphic artist to make an AoS logo. Throw it on some shirts/etc and sell it through etsy, shopify, etc
3) Selling ads - this is the easiest but....it also make it easy for the left to cancel you.
For #2 a lot of non-technical people do this and you could get some AoS members to help you with it. But be very careful in vetting the merch/people helping. One "rayciss" design and suddenly your shop is cancelled.

Home schooling is great, met many very bright kids home schooled but its the exception to be a self starter kid. Most kids will do minimum work if left to their own, and kids with idle hands as it goes are the Devils hands.

The most famous Soviet WWII song, their call to arms, is called "Sacred War". "Sacred" - not a term you'll find much, if at all, in use up to June 22, 1941. The new decorations established after that date had names like Kutuzov - figures from Russia's imperial past. The war itself was the "Great Patriotic War".
In a genocidal one-may tyranny like Stalin's USSR, you make sure to add his name to things, but the cry when charging (also painted on most tanks) was "For the Motherland!". Not whole lots of ideological content there.
Grossman said in his diaries, and I believe him, that in Stalingrad troops would add a sarcastic item to their standard cry when attacking - "For the Motherland! For Stalin!". "For the Blue Handkerchief!" - the latter being the most famous romantic ballad of the war, about a blue handkerchief given to a woman by her man, who went to the front as a soldier.

Financing is a far better idea here. You always hear about "who funds the Federalist" (as if there's actually a single funding source), but this place is at least as influential.

My university has come out with the latest crap to keep us entertained. We have to order PPE stuff. We won't be charged for it -- but they also don't deliver it. Guess who'll have to drive his personal precious car over some of the worst streets in N. America, and in some of the worst climate, to get to the Materials office, and then bring it back to campus?
MY boss is a senior officer. Maybe he can request an exemption for me so we can get our stuff delivered.
