THE REAL REASON APPLE, FACEBOOK, SPOTIFY & YOUTUBE BANNED INFOWARS

This is what election meddling looks like

The Real Reason Apple, Facebook, Spotify & YouTube Banned Infowars

Statement from Alex Jones: The EU is already fining Google and others if they don’t start censoring speech by calling it “hate speech” and/or “fake news.”

When our government doesn’t start fining them for violations of free speech, racketeering and trust/monopolistic behavior, that encourages other governments like China and the EU have influence over the free market of ideas.

But this situation also highlights the trust set up by mutli-national combines based in China and in Europe that’s stealing all of our rights and freedoms through a concerted effort.

Over two-and-a-half years ago, Matt Drudge came to our studio and warned of this attack on the First Amendment. That’s why they want alternative and independent media shut down.

They would’ve done all of this last year had Hillary gotten into the White House. Yet, due to Trump instead getting elected, this plan has been held off for about a year-and-a-half.

Now, it seems, they don’t fear Trump for whatever reason, and now they’re making their move.

But I don’t think President Trump has been compromised, but he’s compromising himself one way or another if his administration doesn’t make this the central issue.

Free speech is the central issue; this is the heart of the matter. This is the core. This is it.

Apple, Spotify, Facebook and YouTube all banned Infowars within 12 hours of each other, illustrating how last night’s purge was a coordinated effort and has nothing to do with these platforms enforcing “hate speech” rules.

Here are the real reasons Infowars is being purged by Big Tech;

– Infowars is widely credited with having played a key role in electing Donald Trump. By banning Infowars, big tech is engaging in election meddling just three months before crucial mid-terms.

– With the Infowars ban, Apple, Facebook , Spotify & YouTube (Google) have all now ascribed themselves the power to remove people & outlets from their platforms based on their political opinions. This power will be abused time and time again to meddle in elections.

– The ban also sets the precedent that the mere charge alone of having committed “hate speech,” with no specific examples even provided, is enough to memory hole an individual or group’s digital presence.

– The ban is just part of a wider censorship purge that also use stealth censorship, shadow banning and algorithmic manipulation to hide and bury conservative content.

– Apple also chose to shut down Infowars after we repeatedly criticized them for working with and selling data to the Communist Chinese government. Just a coincidence, I’m sure…. Read More

Hundreds of NC teachers are flunking math exams. It may not be their fault.

MFP Commentary:
If it’s not “their fault” then I wonder who the hell is at fault? Could it be that teaching majors are filled to the brim with the dumbest, by far, students on campus?  Could it be that they got a very poor education because they  themselves attended government schools filled with low IQ teachers?
I know of which I speak. I have taken several  education courses that are required by people in that major and I was flabbergasted each time by the apparent low IQ of the people taking the course.    Government needs to get the hell out of the way and let the free market, dictate who is going to teach.  What a conflict of interest to have the state make that choice. Not to mention that the state has implemented both the first and tenth planks of the communist manifesto to create our schools. 

Can you imagine a country of citizens, educated in the free market by teachers that are gifted, and intelligent, rather than the low IQ crowd  that helps the government indoctrinate your children with all sorts of falsehoods and lies?  The founders told us that we would only be free if we had an educated electorate.  Do you think that these government schools that are designed to dumb us down are a big part of us losing our freedoms?

Almost 2,400 North Carolina elementary school teachers have failed the math portion of their licensing exams, which puts their careers in jeopardy, since the state hired Pearson publishing company to give the exam in 2013, according to a report presented to the state Board of Education Wednesday.

Failure rates have spiked as schools around the state struggle to find teachers for the youngest children. Education officials are now echoing what frustrated teachers have been saying: The problem may lie with the exams rather than the educators.

Teachers in Florida and Indiana have also seen mass failures when their states adopted Pearson testing, according to news reports from those states. Concern about the validity of the Pearson licensing exams is so pervasive that it was discussed at this year’s National Education Association conference, said North Carolina Association of Educators President Mark Jewell.

“I hope this doesn’t lead to a mass exodus of new teachers and exacerbate our shortages,” he said……  Read More

America #1 in Child Sex Trafficking and Pedophilia – CPS and Foster Care are the Pipelines

by Brian Shilhavy
Editor, Health Impact News

Many Americans hold to a national pride that believes the United States is, or at least was, the greatest country in the world.

Few would argue that America is “not what it used to be” when considering the “greatness” of America today.

Current American President Donald Trump was swept into power because he ran on a campaign slogan to “Make America Great Again” (MAGA), suggesting that what was once considered “great” in America no longer is.

This pride that America is greater than most other countries of the world, that it is the land of opportunity and hope, was perhaps best articulated by the American poet Emma Lazarus who penned the following words that today are etched into a plaque attached to the Statute of Liberty standing in the harbor of New York City, which was once considered the gateway to America:

Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

Today, depending on how one measures “greatness,” America could still be considered greater than other countries in certain aspects, such as having the world’s largest economy, or the world’s most powerful military force.

But there is one area where America exceeds all other nations’ of the world that hopefully most Americans would not be proud to admit: America is the #1 destination for pedophilia and child sex trafficking, and this huge market exists mainly because it is funded by taxpayers through the U.S. government Child Protection Services and Foster care system.

CAPTIVE AUDIENCE: HOW COMPANIES MAKE MILLIONS CHARGING PRISONERS TO SEND AN EMAIL

MFP Commentary:
This is so widespread in our jails, prisons, and mental facilities. 
Despite Jesus’s Christ’s admonition:
Matthew 25:40
“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”

I find  modern Christians reprehensible for supporting the evil that goes on in our prisons…. this is far from  all of the reprehensible things that I see in modern christianity,  it’s just one of the more prevalent and disgusting  modern “Christian beliefs”.

Not only do “Christians” dehumanize the human beings that our Stanically controlled government locks in cages, they  dehumanize whole nations of people when the war mongers start their  propaganda….    Unfortunately “Christians” are some of the most uneducated useful idiots on the planet.

LAST JULY, AS she has for the past 10 years, Dianne Jones spent 45 minutes on a city bus heading to the local WalMart. There, under fluorescent lights, she scanned rows of brightly colored birthday cards to pick out the perfect greeting for her son—let’s call him Tim—who is imprisoned more than 100 miles from his mother’s home just outside New Orleans. The card she settled on was dark brown with trees and a birthday message that read, “For the best son in the world.”

Tim was in his 10th year of a 30-year prison sentence for an armed robbery he committed at age 17; he would not be able to see, let alone sit under or touch, a tree for the next 20 years. (Citing safety concerns, Jones asked that her son’s name not be used.) After Jones, her daughter, and her three grandchildren signed the card, she mailed it off, happy that Tim would know that his family was thinking of him…. Read More

After 50 years, the patient victims of Leftist oppression finally begin to resist. So the Left, of course, accuses them of ‘starting a war.’ They haven’t yet SEEN war.

by Vin Suprynowicz:

 

CNN “media reporter” Brian Stelter Wednesday accused President Donald Trump of leading a “hate movement” against establishment press reporters and commentators (if they any longer pretend to draw that distinction.)

Discussing the Trump supporters who heckled CNN reporter Jim Acosta on Tuesday evening before Trump’s rally in Tampa, Florida, Stelter told CNN’s Hala Gorani, “I think what we are increasingly seeing from the president and his aides and his allies is a hate movement against the American press.”

“When you look at the behavior around Jim Acosta and some of the other reporter at these rallies, you really do see a hate movement,” he insisted.

Stelter said Trump is not just telling his supporters to ignore or not believe the legacy media. Instead, Stelter claimed, Trump’s “really telling people to hate journalists. He’s telling people that journalists are the enemy — literally the enemies of the people.”… Read More

There is No Place for Compulsory Schooling in a Civilized Society

By Joe Jarvis – August 02, 2018

A woman is facing 30 days in jail because her son missed too many days of school. His 82% attendance record wasn’t enough to keep her out of court.

Just let it sink in that you can be put in a cage if the state doesn’t have control over your child for a certain number of days each year.

Originally the mom got the case dismissed using an apparent technicality in the law.

Public education in that district was once only mandatory for 7 to 16-year-olds. Later a line was added saying that compulsory education was mandatory for 5 to 7-year-olds. But on appeal, the judge ruled that the new law did not overwrite the old one, it added to it.

But why use these silly loopholes to try to fight off the state? If you are going to waste your time on futile efforts, you might as well challenge the entire system.

Where does the state get the authority to throw a parent in jail for not sending her kid to school? Or in this case, only sending her kid to 147 out of 180 required days…

Parents used to keep their kids home from school to help with the harvest or the family business. With the state of public education today, kids would learn more staying home and surfing the internet. And chances are whatever peaks their interest will benefit them more than the factory-school system.

But now the state forces kids and teens into the school system to “educate” them… Read More

After decades of silence, nuns talk about abuse by priests

VATICAN CITY (AP) — The nun no longer goes to confession regularly, after an Italian priest forced himself on her while she was at her most vulnerable: recounting her sins to him in a university classroom nearly 20 years ago.

At the time, the sister only told her provincial superior and her spiritual director, silenced by the Catholic Church’s culture of secrecy, her vows of obedience and her own fear, repulsion and shame.

“It opened a great wound inside of me,” she told the Associated Press. “I pretended it didn’t happen.”

After decades of silence, the nun is one of a handful worldwide to come forward recently on an issue that the Catholic Church has yet to come to terms with: The sexual abuse of religious sisters by priests and bishops. An AP examination has found that cases have emerged in Europe, Africa, South America and Asia, demonstrating that the problem is global and pervasive, thanks to the universal tradition of sisters’ second-class status in the Catholic Church and their ingrained subservience to the men who run it….

LET’S MAKE AMERICA FREE AGAIN!

There was a time when Americans stood united in outrage.

Driven by a revolutionary spirit to overturn an oppressive and tyrannical government, our ancestors fought tooth and nail to build a nation fortified by the principles of freedom.

Sadly, in the years since, we have somehow managed to work ourselves right back under a tyrant’s thumb. Only this time, the tyrant is one of our own making: the U.S. government.

“We the people” are still being robbed blind by a government of thieves. We are still being taken advantage of by a government of scoundrels. We are still being locked up by a government of greedy jailers. We are still being spied on by a government of Peeping Toms. We are still being ravaged by a government of ruffians. And we are still being forced to surrender our freedoms—and those of our children—to a government of extortionists.

Unfortunately, the bipartisan coup that laid siege to our nation did not happen overnight. Likewise, the problems we are facing will not be fixed overnight.

That’s why The Rutherford Institute continues to sound the alarm over government misconduct, push back against the menace of the police state, and hold government officials accountable to playing by the rules of the Constitution.

Still, we couldn’t do any of this critical work without you.

Your generous support keeps The Rutherford Institute on the front lines of the ongoing fight for freedom.

Together, we can turn our outrage into a positive force for change.

For freedom,

John W. Whitehead

Book: For a New Liberty: The Libertarian Manifesto

MFP Commentary:
IMHO,  what this book does so well  is to elucidate  the founding principle of this country expressed in the Declaration of Independence: The fact that we are sovereigns, therefore we have no king, nor are we slaves.  This also happens to be the real definition of the 1984’ed word “Anarchy”.    The recent government demonization and changing  of the word (as they did to words in the dystopian novel 1984) is proof positive that our criminal government despises our founding principles, and will do anything to obfuscate the facts and confuse the general public.

I think that you will also enjoy the book “freedom” by Adam Kokesh is free in both text and audio versions, here.  Think of it as the cliff notes for Rothbard’s book.
~MFP

In For a New Liberty: The Libertarian Manifesto, Rothbard proposes a once-and-for-all escape from the two major political parties, the ideologies they embrace, and their central plans for using state power against people. Libertarianism is Rothbard’s radical alternative that says state power is unworkable and immoral and ought to be curbed and finally abolished.

To make his case, Rothbard deploys his entire system of thought: natural law, natural rights, Austrian economics, American history, the theory of the state, and more.

It is relentless, scientific, analytical, and morally energetic—a book that makes an overwhelming case. Indeed, it gave an entire movement its intellectual consciousness and earned Rothbard the titles “Mr. Libertarian” and “The State’s Greatest Living Enemy.”

Society without the nation-state? Rothbard shows that this is the way for peace, prosperity, security, and freedom for all. In the entire history of libertarian ideas, no book has more successfully combined ideological rigor, theoretical exposition, political rhetoric, historical illustration, and strategic acumen. Rothbard poured a lifetime of research and all his intellectual energy into this project and he succeeded in writing a classic.

The book is the result of the only contract Rothbard ever received from a mainstream commercial publisher. He was asked to sum up the whole of the libertarian creed. Looking at the original manuscript, which was nearly complete after its first draft, it seems that it was a nearly effortless joy for him to write. It is seamless, unrelenting, and full of life.

He cut no corners and pulled no punches. It appeared in 1973 and created a whole movement that set out to crush the political monopoly.

From the day the book went out of print, the phone calls and emails started coming into our offices, hopeful of a new edition. Thanks to benefactors who have made it possible, this new edition from the Mises Institute is hardbound, beautiful, and affordable.

In subject after subject, this book is informative, bracing, and challenging. It also features the characteristically clear writing style for which Rothbard is famous, which stemmed from his organized thinking and passionate drive to teach and change the world.

The book begins with American history to show that the revolution of 1776 was the most libertarian of any in history. The pastors, pamphleteers, and statesmen who led it held that the state has no rights that the people themselves do not possess. They demanded full liberty, not some truncated version that existed in the old world. In this discussion, the reader comes to appreciate the founders of the United States of America as never before…… Read More
