Book burning won't be allowed this time around. I can store every fucking book I could ever possibly read on an $20 device.

I think what matters here is distribution and "impressions" (to use an online advertising metric).

They seem to be having lots of success by merely shooting people with a firehose of their preselected information. People are soaked, and the fact that people can read a banned book generally matters little because the vast majority just read whatever book is shoved in their face.

The left has the largest disconnect in my opinion. They hate capitalism but ignore it with pharma. They want bodily autonomy but are fine with forcing injections into others. These are not coherent positions!

@GNL

VERY FIRST: I just realized I'm missing a few. I'll fix that within 24 hours.

Second: Sure. Are you willing to install a communication program?

https://qtox.github.io/

This works differently than any other instant messaging program. First, your ID will be something like this (this is actually my ID)

2779E73EE1BE4E85A52DDA1E0E0DE8006905250171725CD64BE0ED1C29DACC4C03491A64CDA5

You'll need to "add me" using that ID. I may not respond immediately. YOUR ID will be generated automatically (and randomly) - you don't need to enter a password if you don't want to, it just encrypts your credentials locally on your computer if you do.

Second, it's a P2P protocol, meaning there is no server. We can talk privately there. Also share files privately there.

Third, the communication program kind of sucks. Audio is awful on it, file transfers are iffy - meaning they fail, about 30% of the time, depending on size.

Or, if you're uncomfortable with installing that, just ask patrick to give you my email and I'll arrange to get you a zip file. I'll have you grab it from a server I run.

Plus abortion on demand, removing any choice/autonomy for unborn children.

Actually, they are consistent. View it in terms of what gives them more power. Pharma gave them great power over the masses, but free markets do not. Supporting LGBTXX gives a distraction for the masses to fight over while the elites steal behind the scenes.

We have to exclude the right because they are not inclusive.

Israel has been run by Likud forever. They ARE the fascist party. It wasn't a problem for Israel 20 years ago, it's not a problem today.

The Left is freaking out after journalists like Keith Olbermann and Aaron Rupar, are being held to the same standard as everyone else when it comes to doxxing.

But Sean Davis's of The Federalist has a great thread on the hypocrisy of those who only get upset when their team gets a penalty:

https://twitter.com/seanmdav/status/1603803976083947530?ref_src=patrick.net

All we wanted was one set of rules. Rules that allowed us to say things like, "Men can't become women," or "universal mail-in balloting seems sketchy," or linking a New York Post story about the corrupt foreign business dealing's of a Democrat candidate's 50-year-old son. (1/x)

While we were feverishly fighting that battle, scores of court eunuchs on the Right joined hands with the Left and screeched about how Twitter and Facebook and Google can ban and censor whoever they want because muh private company and also because Trump is icky. (2/x)

When the New York Post, which was founded by Alexander Hamilton, was banned (along with anyone who shared its reporting on Hunter Biden), many of these same people shrugged at best or sided with the Left and its lies about NYP's reporting at worst. (3/x)

When the sitting president of the United States was banned from Twitter and Facebook after posting a video calling for peace and denouncing violence, the self-declared free speech warriors busted out their soapboxes and lectured on the propriety of Big Tech's censorship. (4/x)

The Babylon Bee ban, in which a Christian satire site was banned for calling a man a man, was also illustrative. Oh, sure it's troubling, they tut-tutted. Bu
t what can you do? Twitter's a private company, and also mocking insane trans ideology is mean. (5/x)

And then there's the ongoing, coordinated banning and shadow-banning of millions of normal people whose only crime is not going along with whatever narrative
is being jammed down the country's throat by the current regime. Where was the plea for fairness for them? (6/x)

Years and years of censorship of their own readers and contributors barely rated a yawn, but when suddenly a handful of left-wing journos get busted for doxx
ing that led to Musk's kid getting attacked? WELL NOW. Suddenly their principles require them to say something. (7/x)

When people describe conservatism as a defeat mechanism, or as progressivism driving the speed limit, this is what they are talking about. Standing athwart h
istory, yelling, "I'm not like those other icky people on the right. I'm one of the Good Ones™." (8/x)

Auron MacIntyre explains this phenomenon further:

Conservatives can't be the party of controlled opposition. Stop playing defense by letting the Left define reality.

Teachers, 1980s: "If you're invited somewhere by a stranger, who shows you adult material, or tries to talk to you about sexual stuff, run away tell your parents!"

Teachers, 20202s: "We've invited a stranger to the school to show you adult material and talk to you about sexual stuff. Don't run away or tell your parents!"

@AmericanKulak That's great meme material. Had to abbreviate a bit to fit it in.

Wow! China is ruled by a party that never apologizes! How unusual. China is so different from New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and the USA, right? Did NY Times ever apologize for lying about Covid, vaccines, and so on? Not that I remember. ...

I applaud Chinese people for wanting to keep Covid Criminals accountable. I am surprised that NY Times is so blind as not to see me, you, and thousands of people like us asking for Covid justice and reckoning right here.

We are crazy right-wing conspiracy theorists asking for Nuremberg 2.0. We do not deserve justice, accountability, reckoning, and apologies, according to NY Times and our censors.

The Chinese people, of course, do deserve apologies and reckoning, says NY Times.

We demand censorship and need to have misinformation stamped out, say NY Times censors while thanking the Biden administration for taking care of the social networks...

Patrick says

Did they apologize for being "mistaken" about a weapons of mass destruction program in Iraq? Did they apologize for re-introducing slavery to Libya? Did they apologize for claiming, falsely, there was a chemicals weapons attack in Douma, Syria after 2 OPCW experts blew the whistle? Did they apologize for overthrowing Ukraine in 2014, or even admit it? Did they apologize for bailing out criminals in our financial sector in 2007?

They have a pretty clear pattern if you just open your eyes and dare to look.

Our government is a mafia, and our "news" media is their PR firm.

Nice Pat! Don't know how I missed this one. Am Stealing.

AmericanKulak says

You know, this was probably written by an FBI propagandist, and not a real person.

The whole "I love the intelligence agencies!!" on the left, is probably 90% PR firms as well.

Patrick says

Pretty sure these easily spottable contradictions are by design in preparing people for the modern day 1984. The more people they can get to say "we're at war with Oceania!" just a few weeks after it was "we're at war with Eurasia!" the better for them, it means the conditioning is working. Never criticize your own government, always turn on the Emmanuel Goldsteins and foreign nations! This is full on orwellian npc shit.

In the book 1984, this was accomplished by destroying the past. That was the job of Winston Smith at the Ministry of Truth.

But what we have today, is the ability for any individual to store any amount of content, permanently. Winston Smith had a little diary, which was illegal. I have a little SD Card, which can contain more books than the NYC library.
