Twitter and the other Leftist tech companies are (in my opinion) an arm of the CCP. These big tech media companies are telling you and me what we can say and if it doesn’t fit their agenda you are cancelled. The following is from OAN on Rumble.

Yesterday, it seemed like it took FOREVER, to get on Gab and today, I haven’t been able to get on Parler so me thinks the purge just may have begun. The following article says ‘It is done. The Dark Lord has been vanquished. His threatening aura has been purged from Twitter, along with many of his foul minions. Jack Dorsey knows that in order to keep…well, order, we must rid our society of undesirables. Remove them, like stinking rats from the bowels of our social media vessels. Exterminate their toxic opinions from our decent and sacred dwellings. Eradicate their heinous viewpoints from our virtuous temples. We have no time for Nazi-loving fascists in a free and equal world.
Donald Trump’s army of MAGA drones launched an attack on the Capitol on Wednesday. An attack which left the world reeling from several hours of moderate destruction and petty theft, along with the thousands of problematic memes they caused in their wake. The predictable comparison to BLM’s several months of peaceful riots and benevolent lootings last summer by the right-wing press could not be more of an insult. Did the BLM protests cause deaths? Well, yes several…but they were most probably justified because as MLK once said (must check this before submitting) you can’t make an omelette (fair and just society) without breaking a few eggs (setting fire to riot cops), and my goodness how right he was.
What strikes me about the whole situation was that the MAGA rioters managed, with little difficulty, to gain access to the Capitol and were able to walk around freely with no consequence whatsoever (apart from a woman being shot and killed, some other people dying and a multitude of arrests and ongoing investigations). I mean, this is the absolute epitome of white privilege. If BLM’s nonviolent protesters had attempted to take the Capitol with their peaceful ‘KILL ALL COPS’ signs, I am 100 percent certain they would have been brutally slaughtered before they were so much as able to righteously coerce them into taking the knee as they did in Portland. And Florida. And New York. And Minneapolis. And Los Angeles. And Philadelphia. And North Carolina. And Kentucky. And Atlanta. The disparity between the way these two groups are treated by the police due to the color of their skin is heartbreakingly depressing to witness.
Yes. Trump’s fascists were practically invited into the Capitol and offered tea and cake. Yet all the BLM protesters were ‘allowed’ to achieve last summer was several months’ worth of looting, burning and vandalism, along with the acquisition of six entire city blocks for the duration of three weeks. White privilege is out of control. But thankfully, not on social media it isn’t.
Twitter and Facebook (Praise be to Them), and Google and Apple have joined forces, like Marvel’s Avengers, to bravely eliminate the bad guys in our midst. Standing strong against the power-hungry capitalistic oligarchs, they have pooled their technical capabilities to purge the digital world of any trace of authoritarian wrongthink. Facing down and destroying any potential alternatives to their platforms before they have the chance to gather strength. Parler (an evil nest of Nazi conspirators) has had its app pulled from the Google Play store. Because why would we need any alternatives? The only people who would even consider leaving Twitter or Facebook (Praise be to Them) are those who secretly harbor problematic thoughts.
Hopefully, our noble Big Tech Oligarchy will continue to wheedle out the undesirables and prevent them from infecting the rest of us with their unpleasantness. It’s reassuring how much power and control this handful of companies have over our everyday lives. It makes me feel safe, and I have every confidence that this situation could never backfire. The more control they have the better it is for us all. Blessings be forever upon our benevolent Silicon Giant Overlords. Long may they reign.’https://spectator.com.au/2021/01/praise-be-to-our-benevolent-big-tech-overlords/
As a Baptist preacher the following is just another reason to be independent of conventions.
‘Southern Baptist Convention officials admitted it would have been better if they’d contacted Black leaders of their denomination before issuing a statement decrying critical race theory, which led to the departure of several Black pastors.
In response to weeks of reaction to the statement and a request for a meeting from the SBC’s National African American Fellowship, the denomination’s seminary presidents and fellowship leaders met on Wednesday (Jan. 6).
In late November, the leaders of the six SBC seminaries—all of them white men—declared critical race theory, a set of ideas about systemic racism with roots in Marxism, was not compatible with the statement of faith of the nation’s largest Protestant denomination.
After the presidents issued their statement, several Black church leaders announced they were leaving the mostly white denomination.
The only Black person to serve as the denomination’s president, New Orleans pastor Fred Luter, signed a statement on justice and repentance on Dec. 18. That document, initially issued by 20 Black and white SBC leaders, noted SBC progress on becoming more inclusive but added “some recent events have left many brothers and sisters of color feeling betrayed and wondering if the SBC is committed to racial reconciliation.”
Later in December, the seminary presidents told The Washington Post they regretted the statement “inadvertently caused significant hurt among some black brothers and sisters.” That was not their intention, they said, “even as we expressed our genuine concern about what we see as dangerous ideologies.”
Following Wednesday’s meeting, in a joint statement on Friday, leaders of the SBC’s National African American Fellowship and Council of Seminary Presidents said they had an “honest and open conversation” during the virtual meeting. They discussed “our various perspectives on all these issues” and vowed to continue talking.
“All of us acknowledge that conversations of this nature should have happened ahead of time,” they said in the statement. “The Council of Seminary Presidents regrets the pain and confusion that resulted from a lack of prior dialogue. Together, all of us are committed to condemn and fight racism in every form, personal and structural, in consistency with the 1995 SBC Resolution on Racial Reconciliation and the Baptist Faith and Message.”
The discussion included joint plans to sustain and increase Black student enrollment at the seminaries.
“The seminary presidents shared the conviction that CRT will not be taught at their seminaries,” the Rev. Marshal L. Ausberry Sr., president of the African American fellowship, told Baptist Press. “That’s their role to make those decisions and we can respect that.”
Danny Akin, chairman of the seminary council, told the denomination’s news service, the meeting demonstrated the “love and respect each has for one another.”
SBC Executive Committee President Ronnie Floyd and SBC President J.D. Greear also joined the meeting, which Baptist Press reported lasted for about three hours.
Greear had affirmed the seminary presidents’ original statement but also urged Southern Baptists to consider the later “Justice, Repentance, and the SBC” statement, which argued “(s)ome in the SBC appear to be more concerned with political maneuvering” than racial diversity.
He told Baptist Press these discussions “need nuance, grace and better efforts at mutual understanding” and expressed regret for the timing of the conversations.
“Our brothers and sisters of color absolutely should have been at the table—from the beginning—as we consider questions about what a Gospel-based response to racism in our country looks like,” Greear said. “I apologize for how this whole situation has made many of our brothers and sisters feel. Your voices are important in shaping our shared future.”
During the meeting, the leaders learned of the riots that had broken out when supporters of President Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol. The Baptist leaders paused and prayed for the country.’https://ministrywatch.com/southern-baptist-leaders-meet-after-critical-race-theory-document-caused-controversy/
Dennis Prager explains what is occurring today in America and the West with what occurred in Nazi Germany. He writes ‘As my listeners and readers can hopefully attest, I have been on a lifelong quest to understand human nature and human behavior. I am sad to report that I have learned more in the last few years, particularly in 2020, than in any equivalent period of time.
One of the biggest revelations concerns a question that has always plagued me: How does one explain the “good German,” the term used to describe the average, presumably decent German, who did nothing to hurt Jews but also did nothing to help them and did nothing to undermine the Nazi regime? The same question could be asked about the average Frenchman during the Vichy era, the average Russian under Lenin, Joseph Stalin, Leonid Brezhnev and their successors, and the millions of others who did nothing to help their fellow citizens under oppressive dictatorships.
These past few years have taught me not to so quickly judge the quiet German, Russian, etc. Of course, I still judge Germans who helped the Nazis and Germans who in any way hurt Jews. But the Germans who did nothing? Not so fast.
What has changed my thinking has been watching what is happening in America (and Canada and Australia and elsewhere, for that matter).
The ease with which tens of millions of Americans have accepted irrational, unconstitutional and unprecedented police state-type restrictions on their freedoms, including even the freedom to make a living, has been, to understate the case, sobering.
The same holds true for the acceptance by most Americans of the rampant censorship on Twitter and all other major social media platforms. Even physicians and other scientists are deprived of freedom of speech if, for example, they offer scientific support for hydroxychloroquine along with zinc to treat COVID-19 in the early stages. Board-certified physician Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, who has saved hundreds of COVID-19 patients from suffering and/or death, has been banned from Twitter for publicizing his lifesaving hydroxychloroquine and zinc protocol.
Half of America, the non-left half, is afraid to speak their minds at virtually every university, movie studio and large corporation — indeed, at virtually every place of work. Professors who say anything that offends the left fear being ostracized if they have tenure and being fired if they do not. People are socially ostracized, publicly shamed and/or fired for differing with Black Lives Matter, as America-hating and white-hating a group as has ever existed. And few Americans speak up. On the contrary, when BLM protestors demand that diners outside of restaurants raise their fists to show their support of BLM, nearly every diner does.
So, then, who are we to condemn the average German who faced the Gestapo if he didn’t salute Hitler or the average Russian who faced the NKVD (the secret police and intelligence agency that preceded the KGB) if he didn’t demonstrate sufficient enthusiasm for Stalin? Americans face the left’s cancel culture, but not left-wing secret police or reeducation camps. (At least not yet — I have little doubt the left would send outspoken conservatives to reeducation camps if they could.)
I have come to understand the average German living under Nazism and the average Russian living under communism for another reason: the power of the media to brainwash.
As a student of totalitarianism since my graduate studies at the Russian Institute of Columbia University’s School of International Affairs (as it was then known), I have always believed that only in a dictatorship could a society be brainwashed. I was wrong. I now understand that mass brainwashing can take place in a nominally free society. The incessant left-wing drumbeat of The New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times and almost every other major newspaper, plus The Atlantic, The New Yorker, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR, all of Hollywood and almost every school from kindergarten through graduate school, has brainwashed at least half of America every bit as effectively as the German, Soviet and Chinese communist press did (and in the latter case, still does). That thousands of schools will teach the lie that is the New York Times’ “1619 Project” is one of countless examples.
Prior to the lockdowns, I flew almost every week of the year, so I was approached by people who recognized me on a regular basis. Increasingly, I noticed that people would look around to see if anyone was within earshot and then tell me in almost a whisper: “I support Trump” or, “I’m a conservative.” The last time people looked around and whispered things to me was when I used to visit the Soviet Union.
In Quebec this past weekend, as one can see on a viral video, a family was fined and members arrested because six — yes, six — people gathered to celebrate the new year. A neighbor snitched on them, and the celebrants were duly arrested. The Quebec government lauded the snitches and asked for more public “collaboration.”
Snitches are likewise lauded and encouraged in some Democrat-run states and cities in America (Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti in March: “Snitches get rewards”) and by left-wing governments in Australia. Plenty of Americans, Canadians and Australians are only too happy to snitch on people who refuse to lock down their lives.
All this is taking place without concentration camps, without a Gestapo, without a KGB and without Maoist reeducation camps.
That’s why I no longer judge the average German as easily as I used to. Apathy in the face of tyranny turns out not to be a German or Russian characteristic. I just never thought it could happen in America.’https://townhall.com/columnists/dennisprager/2021/01/05/i-now-better-understand-the-good-german-n2582563
One would have to be a monk not to see China on the rise in the West. Now, ‘A deep sense of malaise seems to have settled over America. Our politicians, from Biden at the top to lowly state-level bureaucrats like Georgia’s Secretary of State Raffensberger, are corrupt and sneer at us plebes for pointing to their corruption as evidence that they’re not our betters and that China owns America and its politicians. The media lies to us. The tech companies censor us and stop the free flow of information. Our businesses aren’t what they used to be and our “culture,” if it can even be called that anymore, is an amalgamation of poorly made reruns and vulgar songs.
From where do those troubles stem? Well, on one level, it’s simply that, thanks to Covid, we’ve had to put up with even more government incompetence than usual. Every level of American life, from the business world to dinner inside your own home, has been intruded upon by hypocritical agents of the state. Unsurprisingly, they’ve done a poor job of “helping out” and have instead just made life worse and harder for everyone.
But that’s not the only reason life in America seems to be getting worse. It’s not just that the government is incompetent. That is, like Senator Graham’s recent betrayal of conservatism, disappointing but not unsurprising.
The bitter reason things in America seem to be going downhill so quickly and frightfully is that America isn’t owned by Americans anymore. Instead, America is owned by China, and we’re finally starting to feel the talons of the Chinese dragon sink into us.
Each of the issues mentioned above, from government corruption to media lies, relates to the fact that China owns America. In this article, I’ll explain why that’s the case and why it is making Americans worse off.’ For the entire article go to https://genzconservative.com/china-owns-america/?amp=1
‘Bill Gates is accused of hypocrisy after joining bidding war to buy the world’s largest private jet operator – one month before he releases his book preaching about climate change
- The Microsoft boss’s company Cascade Investment entered the bidding war for British private jet servicing company Signature Aviation Friday
- Cascade teamed up with Blackstone Group to make a $4.3 billion bid
- Cascade and Blackstone now go head-to-head with private equity firm Carlyle
- Gates’ Cascade already owns a 19 percent stake in Signature
- News of Gates’ pursuit of the private jet firm raised eyebrows given its actions are at direct odds with his very vocal stance on climate change
- In February, Gates will release his book ‘How to Avoid a Climate Disaster: The Solutions We Have and the Breakthroughs We Need’
- In it he sets out his plans for how the world can reach zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to prevent a climate crisis
- This comes months after he published a blog post lecturing the public that climate change ‘could be worse’ than the coronavirus pandemic
- Signature Aviation handles 1.6 million private jet flights every year
- A private jet flight emits up to 40 times as much carbon per passenger as regular commercial flights, according to research ‘https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9128203/Bill-Gates-bids-private-jet-operator-one-month-releases-climate-change-book.html?fbclid=IwAR2YEYRsfaTG9VHAz5KaWn_qLPRRaFAlrE8m7WNXOtvoWzsB29pXB_LTCiU
The purge of anything not held by the Left in America and in most if not all of the West has begun. That purge is against not only conservatives of all stripes but I believe conservative Christians especially. The Left hate, literally hate God and His Word, the Bible. Censoring truth is the ultimate aim in dictatorial governments. In this article we read about the censoring by YouTube of Ivermectin, a medicine that works as a treatment for the China virus. YES, ‘THE PURGE HAS COMMENCED Dr Lawrie’s urgent appeal to the British Prime Minister to consider ivermectin against Covid-19 has been censored by youtube. Yesterday I received a call from a representative of FaceBook ‘requesting’ that I remove a post that contained comments (referenced with links) made by Australia’s Professor Tom Borody commenting about Ivermectin as a treatment Covid – otherwise by FaceBook would have ‘restrictions’ placed upon it. I have since removed the post containing Professor Borody’s comments under protest. He have entered a very dark time in human history when scientific debate and freedom of speech is being suppressed. Here’s the link that has now been suppressed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXV42xkk8cMIvermectin poses a threat to the ideology of ‘’we must inject everyone with the vaccine” perhaps that’s why there is such extraordinary suppression of free speech to shut this down.’https://www.facebook.com/CraigKellyMP
He’s NOT my President! That is Biden IS NOT MY PRESIDENT!! Cheating in life and a fraudulent election does not give one the authority to hold a high position such as the Presidency of the United States. The votes of dead people does not mean LEGAL VOTES! Here in Australia the Sky News ran this piece; ‘President-elect Joe Biden says Donald Trump is one of the “most incompetent” presidents in US history and the “quickest” way to get him out of office is the inauguration on January 20. “I’ve been saying now for well over a year, he is not fit to serve,” Mr Biden said. “He’s one of the most incompetent presidents in the history in the United States of America. “I think that what 81 million people stood up and said is it’s time for him to go. “So, I think it’s important we get on with the business of getting him out of office. “The quickest way that will happen is us being sworn in on the 20th, what action happens before or after that is a judgement for the Congress to make, but that’s what I am looking forward to”. Mr Biden said President Trump’s indication he will not attend the inauguration on January 20 is one of the “few” things they have ever agreed on. “If we were six months out, we should be moving everything to get him out of office, impeaching him again, trying to invoke the 25th Amendment,” he said. “But I am focussed now on us taking control as president and vice president on the 20th and to get our agenda moving as quickly as we can”./https://www.skynews.com.au/details/_6221369502001?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Daily%20Sky%20News%20Australia%20%20Newsletter&utm_content=Daily%20Sky%20News%20Australia%20%20Newsletter+CID_196c8a394312caf099cf1e4a2d84019e&utm_source=Daily%20newsletter&utm_term=Donald%20Trump%20is%20one%20of%20the%20most%20incompetent%20presidents%20in%20US%20history%20Biden
Biden is an old man with dementia. Harris will be the real President whether Biden is in the WH or the old folks home and she will be ruling with her Marxist ideas being implemented with haste. The Demoncrats and Biden/Harris will sell the USA to China on a platter. America’s middle class will soon be a thing of the past. America must get right with God the Creator! That is the God of the Scriptures, the Holy Bible. What was true of old Israel is true of America and Australia. We have accepted sin as normal and godliness as radical! What God said in 2Chronicles 7:14 is as true today as when He said it and that is If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
This is a MUST read! It will open your eyes on what the CCP is doing in the West. It will be seen soon that Bide/Harris and the Demoncrats are puppets of China.
America can expect a LOT of things from the Biden/Harris Leftist/Socialist/Climatescam camp in the next four years. One thing to be sure is the climate scam will be pushed harder and will require LOTS of money!
‘Democrats will control the entire executive branch for the first time since 2011 as Georgia sends two Democratic senators to Congress. The last time this happened, Barack Obama was entering the White House in 2009, backed by commanding Democratic majorities in both houses of Congress.
What followed was a stimulus bill that transformed the US economy in ways that accelerated the clean-energy transition faster than anyone imagined.
The $831 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act earmarked $90 billion for clean energy and climate-related programs. Its massive size, more than 10 times larger than previous clean energy bills, placed thousands of bets on energy efficiency, grid modernization, transportation, and renewable energy technologies across the country. “And it worked, unbelievably,” said Michael Grunwald, a journalist who wrote a book on the 2009 stimulus plan.
History is poised to repeat itself. Joe Biden ran on the most ambitious climate plan in US history, and while he didn’t embrace the entirety of the Green New Deal (Biden has referred to it as a “crucial framework” with the “epic scope” needed to meet the climate challenge), its spirit is reflected in the president-elect’s day one agenda. From redirecting the $500 billion federal government procurement budget to reestablishing methane pollution limits and rejoining the Paris climate agreement, the new White House has planned a sweeping climate term.
Biden’s ability to make good on his campaign promises would have been substantially limited by a Republican-controlled Senate. Now backed by a Democrat-led Congress, the incoming administration will come under enormous pressure to make its agenda even more ambitious during the two years it’s virtually guaranteed to hold the levers of power.’https://qz.com/1953129/how-a-democratic-senate-can-support-bidens-climate-plan/
