. . . is coming along nicely
So we've just seen prominent Islam critic Stephen Lennon (AKA Tommy Robinson) get banned from Instagram & Facebook for, ahem, "hate speech". Carl Benjamin has an excellent & revealing short piece on this HERE and guess what? A prominent Muslim journalist working for the BBC has taken a lot of credit for this. Because he has the right opinions and was listened to. Of course.
Now I've followed Stephen literally for years and I have never heard him promote violence against Muslims, yet mysteriously almost as soon as he releases a video highlighting the abysmal lack of professionalism of the BBC's premier documentary show Panorama he loses access to both these platforms (I must admit to a spectacular dose of schadenfreude over the Beeb being hoisted on their own petard by a mere "working class oik", but I don't feel the least bit guilty).
Could these events be mere coincidence? Maybe so. Maybe in the last few days he's suddenly gone completely out of character and started advocating the kind of things he's stood against his whole life. Maybe he has indeed said that "all Muslims who follow the Qur'an should be beheaded". But I find it highly unlikely. Rather this all smacks to me of a coordinated response by Establishment groups to silence embarrassing voices and dissenting opinions, especially popular ones. But then I'm a frightful conspiracy theorist as we all know.
So first they - "they" of course being the good & right-thinking people at Facebook, You Tube & co. who are our moral betters and can see more clearly than we - came for Alex Jones and most of us were OK with that because hey he's a looney. But things are progressing (is this the kind of thing meant by the term "Progressive"?) to the point where the same outfits are now making things up about people they just don't like in order to silence them.
This really should concern everyone.
David Wood continues to have trouble with the good people at You Tube as another of his videos was removed for "hate speech". Just as Vlad Tepes lost his entire channel there, David genuinely faces the same thing for the same reasons: purely concocted balderdash. And there doesn't seem to be a thing anyone can do about this. There simply is nothing hateful about the content - to the contrary in fact - these are merely facts and opinions that are not liked. Yet the decisions have been made and people - along with the priceless information they offer - have been banished to outer darkness.
Are these the new Progressive freedoms? Are we supposed to be happy with this? In true 1984 fashion is freedom now slavery and has ignorance become strength? Because those with power tell us so eh? Well I don't know about you, but I've never found ignorance of any subject to be beneficial and I've never found refusing to take personal responsibility for understanding new or difficult topics to be a useful strategy.
But the way things are going pretty soon I - and you - will never get the chance to say anything that contradicts the official dogma on Twitter, You Tube, Facebook or Instagram.
Frankly guys I think we really need to get toey about this. Make some noise, complain, vote with your money and take it away from these people and give it to those who deserve support. Places like You Tube and Stuff have stopped me from commenting for a year or so, my name is on The List, but maybe your's isn't so make the most of your opportunity to criticise & inform while you can.
Because it's not paranoia if they really are out to silence you.

Earlier today, Tommy Robinson was banned from Facebook and Instagram. YouTube won't be far behind. YouTube is removing more and more content based on false flags. Videos that contain absolutely no hate speech are being removed as hate speech. YouTube's Community Guidelines strike system is pure garbage.
