Joe Biden has called for “healing and unity” while Democrats, AOC, the MSM and its operatives call for blacklists and purges to end careers, ostracise, exclude and persecute all those who supported President Trump and work for the federal government.
Unity, it seems, means compliance with critical theory, identity politics, BLM, socialism, impoverishing the working class and middle classes by reversing the tax cuts, eviscerating the US Constitution and a foreseeable one-party state, on the California model, where the party controls all wings of government and not ‘We the People”.
Nolte on Breitbart tells us about CNN’s Jake Tapper’s call to blacklist those who supported and worked in the Trump administration. Tapper is a former White House PR man for the Democrats.
Although the Trump campaign is coming forward with eyewitness accounts in the form of sworn statements alleging widespread vote fraud, although the Trump campaign is legally entitled to recounts in a number of swing states, the venal Tapper is still threatening them — telling them if they don’t give up their legal rights to legally contest a whisker-close election, they deserve to be blacklisted.
In other words, Gee, that’s a nice career you got there. Be a shame if anything happened to it.
The blacklisting is an intimidating standover tactic. The call by Tapper is chilling because it is a thin line between social proscription and economic terrorism of individuals and their families and the threat of incarceration, exile or, ultimately, execution.
Then there is a move to curtail free speech from Biden “aides” as Professor Turley (a liberal) discusses on his blog.
We have been discussing the calls for top Democrats for increased private censorship on social media and the Internet. President-elect Joe Biden has himself called for such censorship, including blocking President Donald Trump’s criticism of mail-in voting. Now, shortly after the election, one of Biden’s top aides is ramping up calls for a crackdown on Facebook for allowing Facebook users to read views that he considers misleading […]
Russo objected to the fact that, unlike Twitter, Facebook did not move against statements that he and the campaign viewed as “misleading.” He concluded. “We pleaded with Facebook for over a year to be serious about these problems. They have not. Our democracy is on the line. We need answers.”
For those of us in the free speech community, these threats are chilling. We saw incredible abuses before the election in Twitter barring access to a true story in the New York Post about Hunter Biden and his alleged global influence peddling scheme. Notably, no one in the Biden camp (including Biden himself) thought that it was a threat to our democracy to have Twitter block the story (while later admitting that it was a mistake).
I have previously objected to such regulation of speech. What is most disturbing is how liberals have embraced censorship and even declared that “China was right” on Internet controls. Many Democrats have fallen back on the false narrative that the First Amendment does not regulate private companies so this is not an attack on free speech. Free speech is a human right that is not solely based or exclusively defined by the First Amendment. Censorship by Internet companies is a “Little Brother” threat long discussed by free speech advocates. Some may willingly embrace corporate speech controls but it is still a denial of free speech.
The heading of the article “Shredding The Fabric Of Our Democracy”: Biden Aide Signals Push For Greater Censorship On The Internet” sums up Democrat Turley’s dismay at what is happening and supports the President’s quest for democratic due process in the election process.
One NZ blog site writer this week was happy to have Trump consigned to the “dustbin of history” without any thought of the consequences, which we are now starting to see.
Big tech has moved against the President, Dan Bongino, Mark Levin, Steve Bannon and National Pulse for reporting on voter fraud. They are all conservative voices, which may not be to your liking, but they are voices which are becoming heterodox and outlawed by woke dogma.
Sky News Australia covers the news well. Stuff, in its typical slavish cut and paste mindset, over the weekend merely swallowed the far left and woke AP’s “4th Estate’s Vanilla Coup” piece. AP’s stylebook has writers spelling black with a capital B and white with a lower case w. So we have a very credible — NOT — news source.
Fred Siegel’s “Revolt Against the Masses” is being played out in part. The silk stocking establishment political elite is in payback mode. That establishment includes the Alphabet intelligence community too. Chuck — “We are going to remake America” — Schumer warned Trump about it in 2017.
John Brennan is back in the fray too, while Chief Justice John Roberts, in Mark Levin’s words, has “gone full Georgetown.”
