Most of you already know this. And the fact that you do is telling. Big tech censorship is real.
Most of you also know the direction of this censorship. Progressive left.
The vast and enormous dominance of information flow across the internet is through Google, Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube (owned by Google).
These companies and their work force reflect the dominance of progressive radical left ideals within silicon valley. I spent more than a decade working in that region, and I know this to be absolutely true and accurate.
The dominant leftist ideals within the workings of these platforms were not a noticeable problem or forefront issue before the 2016 presidential election. However immediately afterward, it became “all hands on deck”. Why? Because their consciousness was shocked when Trump defeated Hillary on that fateful day in November. Since that day, they began to utilize their enormous power on the internet as they became afflicted with ‘TDS’[1].
Google is not a search engine. It is a censorship engine, in my view.
Robert Epstein, a Senior Research Psychologist at American Institute for Behavioral Research, has shown how Google will swing the next election[2]. He said in subsequent elections, Google, Facebook, Twitter and big tech’s manipulation could manipulate as many as 15 million votes. “In 2020 if all of these companies are supporting the same candidate, there are 15 million votes on the line that can be shifted without people’s knowledge and without leaving a paper trail for authorities to trace.”
Numerous whistle blowers and leakers from inside the workings of Google have indicated the deep seeded intent to stop Donald Trump.
Recently, Project Veritas released a new report on Google which includes undercover video of a Senior Google Executive, leaked documents, and testimony from a Google insider. The report appears to show Google’s plans to affect the outcome of the 2020 elections and “prevent” the next “Trump situation.” As the video gained traction on Google’s YouTube approaching a million views, they took it down.
Despite publicly denying doing so, Google keeps blacklists to remove certain sites or prevent others from surfacing in certain types of results. This is widely reported, and evidenced.
Google’s engineers have created algorithms and blacklists to weed out ‘auto-suggest’ suggestions for controversial subjects. Reportedly, employees can push for revisions in specific search results.
An internal company briefing produced by Google and leaked exclusively to Breitbart News argues that due to a variety of factors, including the election of President Trump, the “American tradition” of free speech on the internet is no longer viable. The Google briefing, titled “The Good Censor,” admits that Google and other tech platforms now “control the majority of online conversations” and have undertaken a “shift towards censorship” in response to unwelcome political events around the world using “European” censorship models.
I could go on with pages and pages of reports. And I haven’t even gotten into Twitter and Facebook. I’ve been following this for years. It IS happening. For more examples, just search for it yourself — google censorship — I suggest using DuckDuckGo or even Bing for your internet searches.
Why am I telling you this?
Because I do believe that Trump is going to lose the election if this censorship is not exposed and stopped. The voices on the right are being quieted, shadow banned, squelched, targeted, blacklisted, silenced, and even de-platformed. In effect, censored. And Trump or the DOJ is doing nothing about it.
What can we do about it? Take the gloves off. Fight back. Verbally. Bring attention to the subject of online censorship. It has been unbelievable how many conservatives, those on ‘the right’, have been affected by this. These platforms have essentially become content publishers themselves – by controlling the narrative. They’re supposed to platforms, but they’re not. They CONTROL the narrative.
Google is the most powerful company on earth. Ever. Their unofficial motto had been “don’t be evil”. Fittingly, it was removed from their corporate code of conduct during 2018. Now it’s “do the right thing”. And they evidently are the definers of what they believe is “the right thing”. Trump. Must. Not. Win. Or. Anyone. Else. Similar. Ever. Again.
[1] TDS = Trump Derangement Syndrome. A phrase that has become popularly used to describe the obsessive radical behavior among leftists who rage against president Donald J. Trump.
[2] Article, Big Tech Will Swing The 2020 Election
Tyrants have long known that the way to take over a country is to takeover the media.
Yup Digital Death of the 1A. It will be very hard to attract and expose new users to right leaning websites like MSB if the shadow banning continues from big Tech.
At least there is talk radio… for now… Although talk radio does not really resonate with millennials well. They have been raised on WE-phones, Get their news through Fakebook, watch only online videos on YouBoob. Basically the primary sources for information all route through these mediums that are actively censoring Christian & conservative view points.
It really is looking like we are stuck in a Matrix nightmare.
We be screwed…
What ever happened to Rush L.?
deported in an ICE raid….
PROOF:
Hours after I published this article, if I type in “Big Tech Censorship is Real” to Bing or DuckDuckGo, this article comes up #1. Which it should, because that’s the EXACT title.
HOWEVER, if I type that into Google search engine, it’s NOWHERE to be found at this time. So it’s proof that my site is on a blacklist there, which I’ve known for quite awhile. And since 90% of humanity uses Google, I am silenced! See how it works? This is what they do.
Could I hire a lawyer to fight this type of thing? Sure, but I would lose everything. It’s David and Goliath. But this time David will lose to Goliath — I mean, Google.
So why don’t I just comply and give up? Start a website about kitty cats or something? Because this stuff just gets me madder than hell. That’s why.
Ken,
I believe you. But, just typed in “Big Tech Censorship is Real”, on google, and it came up number one. I wonder if there is different censorship for different areas of the country/world?
Jane, that is VERY interesting. I did it again, and it’s not there. Zilch. Nada. I would love to discover others who search this article’s title on Google. Does it come up? Hmmmm….
It will come up as the first result if you search for “Big Tech Censorship is Real”, using quotes, meaning you want that exact phrase. However, searching for it without quotes will not make it show up, I think the search engine will try to handle it as individual search terms.
Interesting. No quotes required in Bing or DuckDuckGo
Ken,
just tried it again
— with quotes, comes up as first choice
— without quotes, doesn’t come up that I can find.
I am wondering…
I have noticed, if I google for something which I often search for or type into google, it does often come up first.
I read/look for your site quite often. For some peculiar reason, I have not put it in favorites. When I go to your site, I always type in Modern Survival Blog (into google).
I am thinking that maybe it (google search) is keying off my previous searches? and since that article title is obviously associated with Modern Survival Blog, it comes up quicker on my computer.
If I am in a store in the next week which has one of those computers you can search the net, I will google the term and see what comes up.
It is going to be interesting what others report. Maybe they could report on if they have your site in favorites, or if they type it in fresh each time (as I do).
But, offering the above as an “excuse” , I needs must point out, I have over time noticed peculiar sort of things coming up/returning on some searches. so…
Not on Startpage or Google without quotes. With quotes it’s the first result.
Ken, I’m guessing that you seldom or never do a search for MSB. Neither do I, I have a shortcut. Probably part of a tracking algorithm.
Ken,
thinking about it some more, I do believe either my explanation, or that google reads one’s address (more or less), and keys off what it thinks someone there should “get”.
I am thinking of articles I have read, and people I have talked to in a similar but slightly different situation.
I can not swear if it was regarding amazon, or one of the other online sellers..BUT….apparently it definitely does “key off of” your address /geographic location/, when it gives you prices. I have heard / read of folks going to these sites and depending on address etc, two folks in different cities/different areas of the same city, will get quite different prices. Seriously. Creepy.
just did it, comes up on page 5 halfway down the page.
that is about 4 pages past where most people would look…
without quotes, first with quotes.
And that’s what they do. Bury it. Hardly anyone looks beyond page 1 or page 2. Might as well be page 1000. Unfortunately more people don’t use search engines like DuckDuckGo (I use Bing for some searches too). Google’s got about 90% market share. 90% control.
As an aside, I try not to ever use the phrase “google it” which really means “internet search”. It’s a hard habit to break – sine it’s now synonymous.
I just tried it and an article dated Aug 1 in WaPO titled “Conservatives say Google and Facebook are censoring them. Here’s the real background” coe up first. Don’t know if that’s what others are getting.
I’m located in Indiana, should location be a deciding factor.
That’s what I got first on the list.
Number 4 in search results today
And SOME of your contributors are “blacklisted”, for the same reason.
Wake up.
Yes, people need to wake up the he!! up.
As of right now, you are #2 from my Google search. I had to actually go to Google’s website because I’ve removed everything about them… no dropdowns or options. lol
I searched the title without quotes. Yours was the 2nd result.
Here are my results, in order:
#1 Conservatives say Google and Facebook censor them. Here’s … (from washingtonpost)
#2 your article
#3 Will ‘Big Tech Censorship’ Split the Republican Party Going … (from insidesources)
#4 If Big Tech Can Censor Me, Think What It Can Do to You … (from realclearpolitics)
#5 Don’t buy the conservative censorship complex’s Big Tech … (from washingtonexaminer)
Oh my!
I just did the same search and your article is no longer visible.
So there you go….. GONE!
MT
Doesn’t that make you feel all warm an fuzzy(snarkey). Here today and gone in a key stroke…
So much for free speech, an to thanks to our tax dollars which started this technology so we could be subjugated by Der Ghooo Gell. Yep, I need more coffee this morning!
Ken you are correct on your analysis
I recommend trying to post articles with Liberal / Democrate / Progressive Friendly Titles
Like “10 Reasons Why Donald Trump is Bad for America” Then pull a Fake and fill it with Anti – Socialist Facts or Negative Google Facts then see if it pops up onto Der Googler search…. the friendly titling…
Lets pull a fake on der googler algs.
I do that when commenting on a news article, for example: “Trump threatens to throw a bucket of manure in somebody’s face…. oops, I meant DeNiro”. Some times I leave out the correction but insert a link.
Google owes you exactly what now?
Google owes its audience honesty about its product. Caution these search results may likened to a bait and switch scheme.
yahoo is another big one for censorship i have written MANY comments that had no foul words no insults no mocking anyone and still they blocked my comment
Nothing on Google, shows up on Bing. Only thing to add is that it’s really Big Tech Mass Mind Control Is Real. It’s gone beyond just censorship…
It came up on Bing search, and I was not specific so that is a good thing.
My family(business owners)he uses/used G, but after our discussion with him & the other family member explaining how they are being tracked/censored even for his business. Will check to see if he & the other one have changed over to different search engines,,,OR being lazy and using what is convenient after all these years.
One thing I did recommend is changing their email account to Proton because of the fact it is over seas. A little better protection than what he had been using. Let us all remember you can lead them to the water trough—whether they are smart enough to drink from the tank of knowledge is up to them. Of course the sister would love to dunk them in and not let them out until they smarten up. rowl
This is why it is so important to poison your search. When searching “Big Tech Censorship is Real” include Gillette Razors. If enough people do this, the trend will disrupt their marketing algorithm enough to require human intervention to parse out the distinction so their marketing doesn’t take a hit. Use politician names that are running for office and companies that are selling on Goggle.
Kinda, but not fully reading comments…
but I did a g search on the title ‘big tech censorship’. Lot’s of pages, even utube.
Then ‘big tech censorship is real’ , more same pages, but omitting utube.
But I search for all types of this stuff.
G records your searches. Preferably showing results you have searched in the past.
I use my phone for internet. Desktop and laptops maybe different.
Type in one letter and see if your browser history shows any and all related searches of a singular word that starts with that one letter. It doesn’t matter if you delete search history or not.
Frankly, I don’t care. I’ve searched everything. From diy toe poppers to whatever….
Come, come get ya some.
3 o’clock knock.
A while back searching for the LDS store for their # 10 can of goods that they sell. Although rather basic items I figured it would be no problem locating the web page for it. Not on G, bing, or D/D go, had to use Start page in order to locate it. It is now tagged to the task bar as I do not wish to go dumpster diving for it again.
This is only a church site for preparing their parishioner’s and the general public can purchase from them, yet they are being exiled for their outlook. mo
Yes, I’ve heard a lot about and seen some of the censorship.
Typing the title of this article (no quotes) into Duck, Duck, Go, it pulled this up as number one. Doing the same thing on Google pulled it up as number one ON PAGE FIVE of the results. I’m in the midwest.
On a related note, I just saw a link to something at another site that shows a relationship between some tech people:
Sergey Brin is the co-founder of Google and just retired from being president of Alphabet, Inc. (though he and Larry Page are still controlling shareholders). He was married from 2007-2015 to Anne Wojcicki, a co-founder of 23andMe, the DNA database company. Her sister is Susan Wojcicki, the CEO of YouTube (and former executive of Google). Hmmm. How much does that family control or influence? (That’s not even counting the $51 Billion they have to spend on ads/demonstrations/whatever.)
Does anyone really think “its” not already started????
Prepare my friends, stop BSing and figure what you need for 2-5 years….
Ken, time to get moving on stage 4…. maybe?
NRP: Yes Suleimani was a big hit. Pretty sure I called it yesterday after IR president tried to out-mouth The Donald on Twitter. Not sure about 2-5 years; but times are about to get rougher for a bit.
I have such low expectations about the validity of information on-line, in news papers/sarc, on the radio or TV, that I’m seldomly surprised.
We, the people have never been given the entire truth especially if it pertains to war, the economy, demographics, …
Some of this is tongue in cheek but watch how the TV networks are over reacting to minority pressures. The over-representation of minorities on almost every commercial on TV – African Americans and Latinos must be the most lucrative market for new cars, luxury homes, insurance, … And white people must be the population that have the most skin problems and nail fungus.
I guess this is the price we pay for access to unlimited information at our fingertips.
Not just skin color, but I’ve noticed a lot more homosexual couples and, shows are starting to feature trans sexuals. Been feeling lately like a heterosexual, married, Christian lifestyle is no longer the norm.
Hermit us
Mixed race couples and high minority presences in commercials AND movies is blatant. Is it not reality and is a true misuse of actual society and Census data.
There are quite a few businesses that are feeling the effects of boycotts, anger, and online protests, too. Gilllette, Hallmark, Geico, Progressive Insurance — just to name a few recent businesses.
Oh, and Hollywood is facing a decrease in total revenues for their crap movies and Leftist actors who try to tell everyone how to run their lives.
We are cancelling our DishTV because of it all. I finally convinced my husband to do it.
MT,
Kudos to you for dumping the dish.We rid ourselves of tv 11 years ago, a good move .
MT
Geiko?
Are the Cave Men protesting?
hermit us – YES! 10,000 times, this. I was really truly beginning to wonder if I was the only one who noticed. Not “tongue in cheek” – you nailed it.
Not related but relevant. The news about the droning of Iran’s top general. Current administration needs to be very careful about their next global move. The economic war bringing down the petrodollar has just had its official start. Prepping, I think we all need to ramp it up pronto. The domino effect on w w w I I I has just started unless cool heads prevail. Which I don’t see happening. Wisdom is non-existent on both sides of the isle.
I’ve got stock in a sleepy little Delaware oil patch. It just doubled in the pre-market, within 6 hours, while I slept. My exuberance was quickly tamped by the realization that this portends something very bad.
I believe that google is evil and have not used it as a search engine in years.
Duck Duck Go has been my search engine for a long time and Wed Jan 1, 2020, Three things happened that have made me wonder if simply coincedence or something else?
1st Incident; I trapped a mouse in one of my traps, took a pic to show my son who laughs about his old man’s obsession with killing rodents. A few hours later, son comes by for New Years lunch and I show him the pic. We laugh about me being a notorious mouse killer and on the most wanted list in the mice community!
2nd; Talking to son about splitting 1000 rounds of ammo. Mention 2 websites that we have used in the past but neither of us does a search as we decide to shop a bit for some deals. But we talk about ammo etc for 30 minutes or so…
3rd; On one of my 5 gallon diesel tanks the spout broke as I filled the tractor with fuel. I bitch to my wife about it for a few minutes and we talk about the cheap spouts on gas cans for a while. Took a pic to search for a new one later.
HOURS later, I fire up my laptop, my home page comes up and I open up a new window in Duck Duck Go to do some searching. I have an adblock program but the top 3 articles “for me” that come up are…you guessed it!
An article on Mousetraps, Ammo and Gas Tanks! My phone is not synced with my laptop (took a pic of the mouse and the fuel can) and never went on line with my phone. (Screen too small so I rarely go on the interwebs with my phone) I have bought ammo and gas cans on Amazon in the past but I never remember doing anything about mousetraps. Our termite/pest inspection guy gives me a couple of traps ever year or so.
Coincidence or has Big Tech finally figured out how to tap into our brains in 2020?
FUBAR if you ask me…
@Red Dog Master,
It is amazing how our privacy has been stripped away, even in our own homes. Devices are listening and watching. Notorious intrusions are Alexa (Amazon), Siri (Apple), Cortana (Microsoft), Google Assistant, modern TV’s, and our iPhones/Adnroid-phones. It takes a lot of effort to minimize the intrusion via buried settings within these devices. Though even shutting off settings does not assure 100% privacy. Unless you use Skype or other features, it’s recommended to disable the microphone driver and tape over the built-in camera on one’s laptop/PC.
Anyway, it takes alot of diligence to keep up with the various privacy settings.
Location matters a lot also. It also matters if they have demographics on you.
Discover eliminated the virtual credit card program largely because it cost them money for analytics.
Price differentiation (discrimination) is a nice game to play. Pretty much everyone does it. Some are good at it, some are bad at it (Home Depot and Target). Pretty often the follies are in the ethics part of a Data Science/Data Analytics ethics course.
Do you remember when Froogle used to exist? It more or less destroyed price differentiation so Froogle was discontinued (became Google Product Search). So now if you use Google Shopping and are logged in you will get pricing based on your ZIP code and adjusted by those sellers to your zip code.
For example, I pretty much always legally or less legally bounce through IPs in the Midwest. Prices are cheap there (sometimes Texas also). Sometimes I have to use a commercial VPN because the “other” options aren’t available. You probably notice that in your logging. Anyway, when I use a commercial VPN I usually get Captcha’d to death and the prices are less organic.
Red Dog, same thing happened to me just before Christmas. Was talking to our one son here about group activities to do when the rest of family came in town. He mentioned the zoo (for the littles). I had my laptop in the kitchen and was using it for a recipe stored online. Next morning had an ad for the zoo on it. As of now we only BRIEFLY use our phones and computers to catch up on the news am and pm, then they are MOVED to another area of the house. Yes, we can still hear our phones ring. Another note: Been searching online for more wheat (soft wheat for baked goods). Most of my standard bulk order houses are sold out. Garden seeds (heirlooms) online are beginning to get sold out too. Get your seed orders in promptly folks. I think this will be a rough year in more ways than one. Blessings to all,
PS. We’ve been using duck duck go since last year.

Do you have ‘flour mills’ in your area where you reside? If not, check for them on line to see if any are close where you could possible order the berries for pantry.
EE had a sale here before the holiday where by we grab another couple of buckets for friends and ourselves-JIC. Although I dislike WM, have you looked to see(last resort)if they have any on hand by Augason farms. Do not forget the barley for those that like it, it makes a great filler in foods such as soup, not only adds to the bounty of the product but the fills the stomach with less food content.
Plus Barley is easier to digest for some folks.
Barley bread is mentioned in the bible. Always intrigued me. Barley lowers cholesterol too. I lowered my cholesterol 30 pts adding ground flax seed meal to bread, keto muffins, and smoothies.
AC, don’t know of any mills near us, but will investigate more; and I will check the sources you mentioned. My thanks. I did get some organic soft wheat berries – Palouse sourced- from Amazon yesterday. I think adding more barley and green puy lentils (I like them) is a good idea also. Time to really top off the “winter pantry”. Something evil this way comes….
Great River Organic milling has some soft wheat. I have purchased corn from them before. Two of the corn orders had weevils. Two more were ok.
I tried their flour from Costco once. Was not a fan tho wheat berries might be ok to buy.
DJ5280
IF you can find Bob’s Red Mill soft wheat berries, I know you will like the flour. The mill we have access for purchasing, discovered it was owned by his son(now passed). The berries I have purchased there are really good, used them for making cookies up until this last year. NO time for being Santa’s Elf to busy with other projects as usually during the holidays.
Thought would pass that on to you for an option, if you are lucky enough to find those berries.
Thanks AC! I will look for them.
Red, now that is scary! Guess the ‘cloud’ is everywhere.
I typed it in and it came up #1 and linked to the msb article. I used Brave and duck duck go
Google sells ads. It gets money for showing ads and gets even more money if you click an ad and you buy. So if you hate advertising I recommend clicking ads as it costs that company a ton of money and it all goes to the Googs.
It is in Google’s best interest to show you exactly what it thinks will get you to click an ad and buy something. Just clicking the add gets them a lot of money.
Google and everyone else is analyzing your bias and using that to give you the things that have the best chance of selling you something. You wanted personalized results… You got it.
Fake news only works if the media can convince people that it is real. The easiest way to do that is to make something that someone wants to hear sound sensational.
If you Google it on AltaVista so you can be Excite d about the opportunity to AskJeeves you may get a giant Dogpile about a bunch of Yahoo s so it can Bing you your results you will find that Republican baby boomers share the most fake news.
I am a day behind on the search engine post. I found the above title on the second page of google search. Bing it was 1st.
Seems like a little late in the game to be complaining about the internet.
Jimbo,
First you wrote;
“Google owes you exactly what now?” And then you wrote;
“Seems like a little late in the game to be complaining about the internet.”
I was wondering;
A. Who are you addressing in your first comment? And,
B. Do you believe that once something is invented or introduced, that no one has the right to complain about it ever again…or is there a time limit after it is invented or introduced that one is allowed to complain?
Just checking,
A. Ken
B. We’ve had chances to shape how the internet would work, we ignored those opportunities, now we get what we’ve got. It’s kinda like eating junk food for twenty years, then complaining about the nutritional content of soda once you’re obese…nobody is saying one can’t complain, but mix in just a bit of personal responsibility too.
Jimbo,
The internet has shaped up to be what it is. None of us can change it.
But what some of us can do is teach our young people how to use it wisely. And we can take personal responsibility for what we do on the interwebs.
When asked, I urge young parents to keep their minor children OFF the internet without parental supervision. Of course most do not listen and gladly give thier 15 year old girl a phone and access to the evils of the internet and wonder why their sweet little angel is posting pics of her hind parts to some pervert?
But sadly, they are afraid to be parents. Afraid of public shaming I guess so they sacrifice their children who they should protect.
My children are long since adults and when they were in their teens and earned the privilege to drive, they were allowed to use MY PHONE that made PHONE CALLS ONLY. Luckily I raised two men who didn’t succumb to peer pressure and were quick to challenge anyone who attempted to make fun of them not owning an evil I-Phone…
Parenting works when done right.
Jim Bowden, Not complaining about the intermittent. Rather, expressing concern regarding Big Tech censorship.
Meant to say “Jimbo” …spellcheck strikes again.
Well, I guess those folks at Google owe you a refund…oh, wait.
Jimbo,
Your logic is seemingly a bit odd. A “refund”? The big G owes me nothing. The message point of the article is my opinion how Big Tech is censoring and effectively silencing political viewpoints that do not meet with their internal political ideals.
I know you enjoy jabbing at me. You’ve been doing it here for quite some time with your one-liners. It might be better discourse if you would elaborate more on your opposing viewpoint so as to engage in meaningful discussion. That’s the real fight. Not just slapping and running away.
For you, and this setting, brevity is best I think.
Though you are not defending your position in any way. So, why do you waste your time here? You obviously read my blogs, but only voice your brevity with occasional berating slaps. What’s the point? Get into a discussion. I know you can do it…
Get over yourself. I don’t know you and I have no opinion of you. I occasionally comment on an idea that you’ve touched on. As a patriot, I’ve often commented on the made up Founding Fathers quotes found here because I find them offensive. That’s it.
Jimbo, oh Jimbo,
You know you have an opinion… yes you do. I’m giving you a chance to discuss a counter argument to Big Tech stifling / censoring voices to the right of their internal political spectrum. Lets hear it…
Boo hoo
– FWIW, here in Smallburg, west Texas, your article comes up on the top of Page two on der g-meister; right after the article denouncing the Myth of conservatives being blocked. DDG, on the other hand, it is first.
– Papa S.
The left control the education system, entertainment industry, and now with google the internet. And they use it as a club against political enemies. The whole diseased Temple needs to be destroyed the left built. Trump choosing Judges to the courts probably saved the country , but thats with us fighting as hard as the evil left.
Heres reality,
This stuff does not happen in a vacuum,
There are people overseeing the AI that they blame for this stuff,
People are the root cause of all of it.
They can claim to be un biased, but thats bullshit. People, media, government, religion, everything, has a bias one way or another, they are more and more, not able to suck up their own personal bias even though they claim to be un biased.
Now heres the tricky part.
Facebook, gooble, whatever, that should in theory be an un biased platform for whoever or whatever as long as its not some sick perv shit or violence, that is wrong for them to shu out this group or that because of political lean or orientation. They are supposedly operating on a platform of equal access.
Individual blogs, like this one, are just that, an individual blog, hence, we are similarly aligned with the beliefs and interests of the originator and his or her views. Thats why we come here. Trolls,,, ye we got em and get em, and personally i cant stand em,, go elsewhere please because you are not constructive or funny or entertaining, but these trolls feel the need to interject, thats fine, to express a different belief, but honestly, why other than to be disruptive would you bother to even spend a moment on a blog you are diametricly opposed to the vast majority of people who read write or post in comments on a personal blog.
????? Hmm?
Easy, its not about constructive anything, its purely ego and im right and Allllll these rubes are wrong. And
Im a dick or dickette and want to show my dickheadedness.
🙄
So when somebody grumbles about Kens moderation being the same as Goodle manipulating content, or fakebook banning christians or conservatives, they are dead flat wrong period.
Kens blog, Kens rules. Dont like that? Go elsewhere. If you dont agree with the vast majority of his readers and commenters, go elsewhere, because NOBODY wants to hear your whine, nor are they amused by your bullshit or butthurt grumbles when you get shut down.
Just my 2.578 cents
Amen Brother Kula, Amen!
Trolls are a destructive force anywhere they appear. People should only comment among like-minded people these days. Civil discourse, friendly debate and respect for a differing opinion is not possible anymore, people are too extreme. If I went over to HuffPo or DU(mp) and tried to comment, I’d be rightfully labelled a troll.
No more ‘Kumbaya’ folks; it was a nice idea. I choose to be among like minded people.
Plus what Kula said – Spot on, my island dwelling friend.
What was the TV program on a couple of years ago where the lady cop from the future came back to try and stop the corporations from taking over the world? Nah, that could never happen could it?
me
Continuum?
Nope.
Appears to me that all those “being rescued by someone from the future” stories are metaphors.
~ For being able to do as we wish without personally suffering the consequences. In the end someone suffers.
~ As arguments for prudence over convenience and considering potential outcomes before getting too far down a path.
However, Cassandras, prophets, and other oracles know it’s always open season on the messengers.
Is there a youtube like site out there. We all know of alternative search engines.

“Fresh Cambridge Analytica leak ‘shows global manipulation is out of control’
Company’s work in 68 countries laid bare with release of more than 100,000 documents
An explosive leak of tens of thousands of documents from the defunct data firm Cambridge Analytica is set to expose the inner workings of the company that collapsed after the Observer revealed it had misappropriated 87 million Facebook profiles.
More than 100,000 documents relating to work in 68 countries that will lay bare the global infrastructure of an operation used to manipulate voters on “an industrial scale” is set to be released over the next months
The release of documents began on New Year’s Day on an anonymous Twitter account
with links to material on elections in Malaysia, Kenya and Brazil. The documents were revealed to have come from

It follows the same cyber censors, who search for, and suppress, those people in opposition to their ideology, are the same people, responsible for the deliberate manipulation of all public media outlets by presenting their calculated lies and propaganda, as factual Reality.
No matter how easy it is to penetrate the falsehoods and recognize the fallacies spewing from these evil people, they know only a small minority will ever do so and they are deliberately targeting only those, who do not….or cannot…as they are the majority of the population.
These same evil people seek to enhance the ignorance of those they wish to manipulate by the elimination of contrary ideas and information on all easily accessible media outlets, either by direct censorship, or by countering with targeted misinformation tuned to trigger the emotional conditioning of their targets.
Simple smears often work, as the counter to them is often too complex for the targets to fathom. Tweaking emotion is what these evil people are all about, as they have spent decades preparing the majority to react exactly as they do. How? By the deliberate injection of irrational values into the populace, which are then unconsciously adopted by the majority, who never realize their nature…or the fact their emotion state is directly governed by them.
If I were to tell you a fact, which contradicts your emotional conditioning and sense of Reality, would you not just immediately reject it. Would you ignore the immediate negative emotional reaction to this fact, or would you make an effort to check its validity? What if virtually all the sources you may use to check the “fact’s” validity…those easily at hand…, quickly deny the fact, or simply do not present any contextual information, which allows you to effectively check it at all? What if accepting the “fact” would put you at odds with the rest of your friends and associates, even with the clubs and organizations to which you belong?
Even if the FACT is found to be TRUE, chances are good people will simply allow themselves to “forget” that it is…and return to a less agitated emotional state, where the fact no longer exists.
Here is one possible example of a fact you have may been conditioned to reject:
“Atmospheric CO2, Natural & Man Made, has absolutely nothing to do with Global Warming, or Climate Change, whatsoever.”
Or more succinctly
Sheeple can, and are being herded.
Wow… I wasted a lot of words….
Bahahahahaaaa.. Total empathy Ision. Same thing happens to me about once a week.
You sound like the people you are deriding.
That is because I was employed by them.
Google owes its audience honesty about its product. Caution these search results may likened to a bait and switch scheme.
Audience? Really?
Some Tech manipulation is quite subtle. Just got a new iphone and as I set it up and did not want all the apple advertising, I unsubscribed. Surprise surprise, they say it will take ten days to stop the flow of apple play, apple itunes, apple …. hoping, I guess that I will see something of interest that will make me stay on and pay them – won’t happen.
An example of how the media is trying to control the message: Youtube has changed their format and algorithm to break association of conservative content with similar content. For instance, before the change if I was watching conservative black Brian Anthony Logan’s channel there would be suggestions on the side bar of other black conservatives. No more, now there is no connect with side bar suggestions; Jay Leno’s garage, Whitney Houston, etc. You have to specifically search for similar content.
Another example: I have a Kindle Fire which has a new (can’t be uninstalled) app mislabeled “News”. The only choices are CBS, Bloomberg, Reuters, Huffpost, Yahoo News, Al Jazeera, People, AOL news!!! And that is it!
Chevy,
This is EXACTLY one of the examples of HOW they are doing it. All of these methods added together is how they push their agenda and ideals. It’s all about controlling the media content – and therefore the majority of the masses.
YouTube is now blocking links contained in videos that discuss the upcoming Virginia anti-gun/gun-control legislation.
AmericanThinker dotcom has an article explaining what YouTube/Google is doing. The article is “YouTube blocks links to texts of Virginia anti-gun Bills” By James G. Robertson, written January 12, 2020
And on another note….I generally don’t use YouTube anymore but was watching The Great Depression, a 6 part series. Well, I was starting up #6 and Google blocked me. They wanted to know my age, and my account. I don’t have a YouTube account, or a Gmail account, or a Google identity. So I was blocked out of watching it.
I watch very few YouTube videos and may be at a point where I may not go back to YouTube again.
Modern – I reached and inflection point of genuine hatred for YouTube over the past year or so. Not only their palpable and obvious public manipulation and dissemination of propaganda; but their forced ads, touch screen lockouts and incessant nagging to “upgrade” to paid service has turned me off from them entirely. 20th January – God Bless you Virginia – we are ALL watching very closely.

POOR baby dem-o rats, they need security from those “Law abiding constitutionalists” in their outhouse.
Gheez, this is what happens when they let in the blood sucking turnips in and allow them to vote when it is not their right.
Yes, You tube actively blocking gardening videos on hydroponics., alternate fertilizers. I had 26 in my liked and they were deleted this morning…. no reason, just removed by you tube.. There is D- live and bit chute… and others… including briteon.
They are using as an excuse the fines placed against them for childrens use./mis use. I am sure there are still inappropriate things there. Gardening and these videos make people have a chance at self sufficiency… they can’t have that.!
