This is a director-level position at the EFF, ostensibly the only rights organization that is supposed to be watching out for people’s online freedoms, and they are casting shade on the idea that there’s any kind of institutional censorship. Even though anyone who has ever been subject to censorship knows that it all happens in a coordinated fashion. You will lose every single online account at once. Even though we know that the Biden administration contacted social media companies to provide lists of accounts to suspend. I personally am the beneficiary of the EFF, and am extremely thankful for the work they put in on my appeal. I have regularly encouraged people to donate to the EFF and will continue to do so. But this is insane, and the organization is losing focus on important realities of censorship. There are a lot of people within it that think “making the internet safer” as the article she promotes describes (statistically a code phrase for making sure affluent and powerful people are not exposed to public criticism) trumps our entire history of 1A jurisprudence and our common law heritage. Eve, you know I was not banned from Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, and the entire financial system in December of 2016 for any of the “safety” issues described in the article. I was banned for being an influential supporter of the lawfully elected President, and a dissident on racial and religious issues. The timing and coordination across so many institutions makes it impossible for there to not be a centralized authority directing the censorship, and you know it. View quoted note →

Jim Goad and Nick “A. Wyatt Mann” Bougas are officially immortal. Their obituaries were printed on Greg Johnson’s excellent Counter-Currents, which I think we all know is an extremely reliable and accurate source that has operated for decades longer than publications that Wikipedia considers “reliable” simply because they have some yid billionaire or Condé Nast backing them. But CC is racist so Wikipedo libtards will never accept it. It would be lol if decades from now they are still listed as living, giving them a Christlike afterglow of eternal life through the written word.

Nick finally left us two days ago. Extremely saddened. Godspeed you glorious man. View quoted note →

Oh great, Spark is down again! Remember that this is the financial system that “Bitcoin educators” always shill for, a centralized service that can be shut off with a switch that innumerable people have access to. It’s not just Spark, but also Cashu, where Jeff Bezos or whomever can disappear everyone’s money if they so feel like it. And they deliberately suppress probable solutions like Drivechains, which scammers like NVK attacked relentlessly for no obvious reason. These people do not care about having a financial system independent of the state. They care about grants, VC investments, and podcast sponsorships. It would be best for the community if we had pro-decentralization radicals hunt the people responsible for promoting subversive shit like this down and killed their entire families in retalation. Because the primary problem of Bitcoin today is that the people who have done massive damage and profited off an entire decade of development being lost have been allowed to collection hundreds of millions of dollars and walk away without consequence.

Cops and niggers are an ouroboros ridden with festering maggots. People ask for more police because niggers commit so many crimes. Niggers get further license to commit crimes because they film the police arresting them. Police and niggers are both gigantic beneficiaries of the presence of one another. When niggers go chimping cops get lots of extra overtime and a bigger budget. When nigs get arrested they get to loot and demand more gibs. In the future society will consist entirely of police and niggers. It’s the pig-nig cycle.

This is an ahistorical, anti-Constitutional, anti-1A attitude. “It’s a private company so I can do whatever I want with your speech” was not the historical norm for hundreds of years in America. When property owners tried this repeatedly for hundreds of years courts slapped them down over and over again. View quoted note → Before the Internet this was not the case. In Marsh v. Alabama, it was ruled (in line with all previous precedent) that privately owned roadways and sidewalks had to allow religious pamphleters, even though it is private property. The court asserted that anywhere that is the forum for public discussion is de facto allowed for political and religious speech regardless of property rights. In the very early days of the Internet things changed, when people tried to assert First Amendment claims on Compuserve chats. Compuserve claimed they weren't the public square, that they were a private service. I think they were correct, in that Compuserve was a very marginal private space and couldn't possibly have been "the public square". But precedent over this tiny service were eventually laundered into much larger and more critical bits of social infrastructure. In contrast to Compuserve, Twitter and Facebook are definitely the public square. You cannot petition for a redress of grievances or lobby for policy changes without using them. And the political left delights in suppressing their opponents on them but files lawsuits claiming their rights are infringed when they aren't given access to every inch -- such as when they sued Trump for blocking them on his Twitter account:

Supreme Court tosses dispute over Trump blocking critics on Twitter

The former president was sued by seven Twitter users whose accounts he blocked after they criticized him and his policies.

“It’s a private company so they can violate your fundamental rights” is the most deranged position libertarians take. It’s complete trash.

LOL. Monero is now banned from being mentioned/explained by Grok on X. Yet another “Elon is a completely manipulative subversive” moment. Free speech website, folks.
