Bitchute is good too.

Fuck the FAGAT's

You know, I have a twinge of guilt using the term FAGAT, no matter how appropriate for these companies.

Faggots are just people with a mental disorder/addiction who desperately need to believe that they were "born that way" in order not to commit suicide right now.

But they are fellow humans, and they deserve sympathy on that account in spite of their severe and likely fatal illness which they often attempt to spread to children.

On the other hand, FAGAT is a damn good acronym for remember which companies are taking away our rights.

Faggots are just people

Don't worry about the fags. They owned that name a long time ago.

You're a good man, Patrick. The reason, as I am sure you are aware, that people choose to ridicule these people is because of the LGBT communities agenda. Ridicule works.

Many are just perverts. There’s a reason while world banned this for years. It’s dumb sheltered people these days who never seen suffering think it’s cool and progressive to be gay. Gay propaganda does wonders. But with it comes a lot of shit and suffering that was eliminated when it was banned.

Ed Buck used to rent hobos for sex, he made foxnews front page. Killed several black men too with drugs and rape. Media hides their crimes hard. You’d think they are all angels if you didn’t see banned info.

https://reclaimthenet.org/reddit-blocks-links-to-rumble/

Reddit users have been reporting to Reclaim The Net that the social media site is censoring alternative video platform Rumble in private messages.

Screenshots shared show that the platform is informing users that their messages containing links to Rumble are blocked by domain filters.

Reclaim The Net was able to independently confirm this, also seeing that, on Desktop, any private messages that contained a link to a Rumble simply failed to turn up in the recipient’s inbox.

Rumble has dramatically grown in popularity particularly around the troubled US presidential elections in November and an onset of widespread censorship on its mainstream giant corporate competitors.

Last year, another alternative video social network, BitChute, also saw links to bitchute.com blocked in Reddit posts. Users at the time noticed that any post containing such links was being automatically removed, with no obvious moderator action taking place, while links could still be posted in comments.

When users wanted to know why this was happening, an admin said that BitChute was included in Reddit’s spam filter, and that “not all links caught in the spam filter can be re-approved by mods.”

But users were still unclear why posts could not be reinstated if a moderator approved them manually.

Both Rumble and BitChute have seen many anticompetitive hurdles placed in front of them over the past year trying to compete and ensure longevity in a market dominated by giants and permeated by censorship, and Reddit has not been the only “traditional” social network to go after them.

As reports last year detailed, Twitter was also making it difficult for users to post or follow links to BitChute as tweets containing them were getting flagged as “potentially harmful and unsafe.”

Had to write a note to Rumble today:

Hi Rumble,
I love what you're doing, but you're making a HUGE mistake in running site registration and your contact form through Goolge's reCaptcha.

@Patrick - you have time, why don't YOU make captchas?

You can make more interesting ones like, "move all the bubbles with even numbers into them into the yellow box on the left, and all the bubbles with odd numbers to the blue box on the right" (there are people who are color blind). Make interesting little puzzles. If you want to patent a bunch of methods, I know a good patent attorney.

But how to make a business out of that when Google offers their spyware for free to any site willing to betray its users' privacy?

Patrick says

MMMM. I need to think if there's a solution to that.

Patrick says

By selling small, classified ads...?

Patrick says

@Patrick,

Move small, classified ads for one company to one box, and for the second company to the other box?

@Rb6d This is an interesting idea.

@Patrick,
And there is at least some engagement from the user - they can't ignore the ad, have to read at least name of company

This is also a good alternative video site, kinda like Rumble:

Lol, YouTube banned from Roku:

https://www.axios.com/roku-youtube-tv-removed-google-5580ffdf-b865-428c-91ca-8ad83802fedf.html

YouTube TV has been removed from Roku's channel store, after Roku and YouTube TV parent Google failed to come to a distribution agreement amid accusations that the tech giant made anti-competitive demands.

Why it matters: These spats happen regularly between Pay-TV providers and linear TV networks. But in the digital era, this is one of the rare times in which consumers will have a major streaming network removed from their platform's channel store due to a breakdown in negotiations.

Details: The channel will still be available for existing YouTube TV customers, but new users that wish to download the app from Roku's channel store will no longer have the ability to do so.

Roku is keeping the app available to existing users so that customers don't get caught up in the messy negotiations.
Earlier this week, Roku notified customers that YouTube TV may be forced off its platform if it couldn't come to an agreement with Google over a distribution deal. Notably, the dispute between Google and Roku is not over financial terms.

Roku said Google made demands that included requests for preferential treatment of its YouTube TV and YouTube apps.
Specifically, the platform cited four demands from Google that it thought were anticompetitive, including Google's request for Roku to manipulate consumer search results and grant access to data not available to other companies.
Roku also alleged that Google has tried to leverage the power of its YouTube app to force Roku to accept hardware requirements that would increase consumer costs and act in a discriminatory way against Roku.

Keeping my Roku stick. However, they did ban infowars or something. But at this point, anything that is anti-google is acceptable.

The Rumble channel on roku needs lots of work.

Rumble secures investment from Peter Thiel and JD Vance

Steven Crowder joins Rumble after YouTube suspension
He praised the platform for not censoring his content.

Ever since the mainstream media amplified former Vox host Carlos Maza’s attempts to silence comedian Steven Crowder, YouTube has consistently censored and demonetized his channel.

Now, after facing almost two years of demonetization and video takedowns, Crowder has started posting his show to the free speech friendly video sharing platform Rumble.

Rumble growing very quickly now:

https://reclaimthenet.org/rumble-jobs-2021/

As soon as they start censoring election fraud videos and vaccine death videos, then you'll know that Bezos/Gates/Soros/CCP has got to them and it's time to move on.

https://reclaimthenet.org/rumble-live-chat-live-stream-archiving/

After a record quarter and securing investment from several conservative venture capitalists, YouTube alternative Rumble has announced two new features – live chat and live stream archiving.

Live chats appear next to all active live streams on desktop and below them on mobile. Signed in users can post to the live chat at any time. ...

In addition to building out new features, Rumble’s support of free speech in the face of YouTube’s mounting censorship has helped it bring numerous creators with sizable audiences to the platform.

These creators include political commentator Dan Bongino (who is a Rumble backer, one of its most popular creators, and has the number one US news commentary podcast), comedian Steven Crowder (who has the number two US politics podcast), and One America News (OAN) (which reaches millions of viewers each month).

The platform’s CEO, Chris Pavlovski, has consistently voiced his support for a wide range of dialog, debate, and opinions on Rumble and has also vowed to never censor political discussions or opinions on the platform.

If Rumble shows a commercial it's up front. Not like the every 3 minutes bullshit that youtube does to people who watch it on roku. That if you don't cancel might run on for 20, 30mins or more.

I still use fucktube once in a while but if I want background sound (documentary, news whatever) while I'm busing doing something else it's ALWAYS rumble at this point. Lots and lots of people are moving to that platform.

https://reclaimthenet.org/christian-host-eric-metaxas-joins-rumble-after-youtube-censorship/

Another conservative figure is experiencing censorship on YouTube, reports say, as they cite radio host Eric Metaxas who revealed that Google’s video platform has removed all videos of his radio show from the channel.

Metaxas, who is a Christian author, announced the news on Twitter, but didn’t seem at all surprised. “FINALLY,” he wrote, “YouTube decided that because we violated their ‘community standards’ my show has been entirely kicked off their platform.”

He then went on to say sarcastically that “in related news” the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the North Korean government also dislike the videos – a comparison often made between the ongoing censorship on YouTube and other huge western social media platforms, and free speech suppression under those regimes.

And lo and behold, YouTube keeps censoring anything and anyone opposed to the overwhelming evil that corporate liberals do to the working class:

YouTube has a long list of things its users are not allowed to utter on the platform, often not even as part of a debate among scientists and doctors, as YouTube believes these things pose "a serious risk of egregious harm."

This includes recommending Ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine for Covid treatment (even though critics of the use of these drugs speak about their inefficacy rather than potential harm), and making claims that Covid vaccines can make people ill. Contradicting local health authorities or the WHO is also prohibited, where it comes to treatment, prevention, transmission, or orders of restrictive measures such as mask wearing and social distancing.

Congress Escalates Pressure on Tech Giants to Censor More, Threatening the First Amendment
In their zeal for control over online speech, House Democrats are getting closer and closer to the constitutional line, if they have not already crossed it.

For the third time in less than five months, the U.S. Congress has summoned the CEOs of social media companies to appear before them, with the explicit intent to pressure and coerce them to censor more content from their platforms. On March 25, the House Energy and Commerce Committee will interrogate Twitter’s Jack Dorsey, Facebooks’s Mark Zuckerberg and Google’s Sundar Pichai at a hearing which the Committee announced will focus “on misinformation and disinformation plaguing online platforms.”

The Committee’s Chair, Rep. Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-NJ), and the two Chairs of the Subcommittees holding the hearings, Mike Doyle (D-PA) and Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), said in a joint statement that the impetus was “falsehoods about the COVID-19 vaccine” and “debunked claims of election fraud.”
