For those of you tuning in, the Pittsburgh synagogue shooter this weekend apparently had an account on GAB.com, and while he also had accounts on facebook, twitter, and other sites, the powers that be deemed this to be the reason GAB.com must be removed from the internet.

Gab made a statement that they have been complying with investigators, having gone through and archived his account and taken it down as soon as they got the news, but that wasn't enough to appease the overlords who seek to censor the internet.

At the same time, Paypal and Stripe suspend their accounts with GAB, killing their payment processing.

Why does this concern us? We're not in this argument that Alex Jones, Gab, or whatever conspiracy nut comes along tomorrow is having.

But one thing is certain. Social Justice Warriors have been on the warpath for shrinking the overton window and putting into place the system and mechanisms required to silence and censor anybody outside that window.

And folks, what little we had that was considered acceptable is being pushed out the window as well. I wouldn't be surprised if exercise and strength training becomes misogynistic before the end of the year.

Disagree with the speech, but resist the censorship. Because if you don't, tomorrow they come for you.

We are working tirelessly on our Forums.Red platform to ensure that men can continue to communicate, no matter what the SJWs try to do to stop it.

It is eerie that I started reading 1984 two days ago and now this happens.

[–]TheStoicCrane 5 points6 points  (6 children) | Copy Link

The SJWs, Governnent, and Big business are using 1984 as a template to create a dystopian society. It wasn't a prophecy. It's become a manual!

[–]Vikingcel 3 points4 points  (5 children) | Copy Link

I just only finished reading it a moment ago and the ending was devastating.

Great book, great message. To be frank, it makes for a great guide as well, would not be surprised if someone was using it as such.

[–]TheStoicCrane 5 points6 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

The unfortunate and terrifying part is that though Orwell created a vision and potentially a template for an all pervasive totalitarian society within the same book there is no guide for how to destroy such a State.

It wouldn't be shocking if years down the lane if 1984 were banned or if it's original form were replaced by a scaled down "edited" version.

Alot of books nowadays are being widely distributed in "edited" editions were original copies are few and far to come by. Covert censorship is real I suspect.

[–]Vikingcel 2 points3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

I'm sure Orwell made it clear that at some point the totalitarian system will become practically untouchable, as in the book.

The idea of proles turning it all over was sound, but they would have to wake up earlier.

[–]TheStoicCrane 0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

If Orwell's society parallel's contemporary society you think this one has any chance? Honest question not a smarmy one or backhanded one alot of keyboard alphas like to make.

[–]Vikingcel 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

I think it will still take a lot of time before we reach that dystopian scenario.

I can still say that 2+2=4 here in EE. Better situation than in the US, I presume, where people might get mad and triggered by such a revolutionary act, but you aren't breaking any laws yet. I can't parade myself with a nazi flag, heiling, while being openly communist is fine. I don't really mind, albeit I find that wrong in principle. That's a minor infringement on freedom of speech and thought

The "party", whoever it could be would both need the technology and total ideological indoctrination to be able to control us as such. We might be almost there technology wise, but ideologically we are still far, especially in EE.

But who knows.

[–]JackNapier368 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

They took it out out school curriculum. Go read Brave New World. That's the one they banned at release for years and it is very accurate compared to our current state

[–]GodOfDinosaurs 2 points3 points  (12 children) | Copy Link

Daily reminder that Orwell was a socialist

[–]Fulp_Piction 19 points20 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

True, but his writings are anti-totalitarian. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater because Orwell leant a certain way politically. I'd also expect that 1940's socialism was a lot different to the short-blue-haired disaster people equate it with today.

[–]GodOfDinosaurs 5 points6 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Yeah dude, I’m politically aligned with Orwell. My point is Orwell spent his life critiquing authoritarian structures including capitalism, Stalinism, etc. This is another case of corporate power having almost total control over “free speech”. TRP hyper-focus here on SJWs is a sideshow. It’s a symptom. The real problem is that this is even possible.

[–]foxhound525 2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Finally, someone who actually uses their brain instead of blaming everything on 'sjws'. Society is becoming a corporate free-for-all, like a cyberpunk dystopia.

He was, then he wasn't. Read "Road to Wigan Pier", or listen to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6izO6R8G9M

[–]GodOfDinosaurs 1 point2 points  (5 children) | Copy Link

Orwell was a socialist his entire life. From the wiki on "Road to Wigan Pier"

He states very plainly that he himself is in favour of socialism but feels it necessary to point out reasons why many people, who would benefit from socialism, and should logically support it, are in practice likely to be strong opponents.

This was not Orwell objecting to socialism.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (4 children) | Copy Link

I don't know who wrote that article but it reads like an apology.

I do know that if you read the actual book you'll come away feeling differently.

[–]GodOfDinosaurs 0 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy Link

Orwell was intentionally playing devil’s advocate. This was well known at the time and accounts for a lot of the controversy surrounding the work. I may read it anyway out of interest.

[–]TheStoicCrane 0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

You'd be surprisingly satisfied with some of his work. I recommend Reading Animal Farm first to understand his sentiment towards totalitarianism before reading 1984. Animal Farm is so well written it could easily pass a child's fable in terms of appeal.

[–]GodOfDinosaurs 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

I’ve read 1984 twice and Animal Farm once. Love both of them.

I've had this argument before.

what happens when they DO finally get rid of the " alt-right" ( or whoever they deem as to "opposing them"

they are going to stop there because they need someone to fight. they will eventually turn Iinwords and same some people of there own faction aren't "progressive" enough and then they will be the new target. they won't stop till there is one person left.

[–]destraht 8 points9 points  (7 children) | Copy Link

They might get arid of the "alt-right" on major portions of the web but then they will just push these people into more advanced forms of technology like dark web stuff. For example TOR Browser bundles stuff with Firefox and you just use that and basically just type in different addresses and you can go to that website all of the same. Look at television, they might have driven sanity off of the air waves even though we now can purchase 1000 channels and hardly any of it makes sense. Ten and fifteen years ago that was kind of a big deal about being on television or not and it was just sort of the standard. Now it hardly means shit if its only available on cable and every year it means even less. It will just be the same that slow picker-uppers will use the Light Web as their standard and marginalized and disillusioned people will just move on. Then what happens is to uncover an address destination it will take a research university or secret government level resources and then just picking up and moving servers starts the process all over again. To stop it would require tight partnership between powerful institutions and public facing organizations like the MSM. Then they have to walk a line of saying mumbo jumbo tech talk about how some company is hosting something that isn't against the law and that its obfuscated but then they can't really know that info since they shouldn't have access to it. That then requires a whole new level of mind fuck Orwelian system and we're just not there yet.

The idea is to make it so it requires a national ID to log into the Internet at all, and eventually for that ID to be implanted into you.

[–]destraht 2 points3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

I was at the World Expo in Shanghai. It was that cities big equivalent of Beijing's Olympics. The Party government had created an animated exposition about the future and were projecting it onto a huge wall in the most vivid colors that I've ever seen. The cartoon was about a boy floating around and visiting different aspects of the future. They stated that in the future we will no longer need to study so hard because we will have a computer chip in our brain that comes standard with physics knowledge for example. I just know that in China they don't do big stuff accidentally since it is so centrally controlled. That just really demonstrates where their heads are at and why China is such Globalist darling. The people are willing to work their asses off to the point of complete sacrifice only for a loose promise of a dream and they will accept just about anything at any point along the "way". We see these national id cards, automated surveillance, gait recognition, facial recognition, purchase records, post record. etc and all feeding into an artificial intelligence network to determine your citizen credit score. Then over in India they just straight rolled out and broke the economy for the bottom tens of percent of people in order to force roll out strict bio-metric and digital currency control mechanisms. Its a trope but the US population still has guns and cash and so can resist this sort of thing although "It" (in the sense of what the Jews fear) is still very much on the long term radar here and it should be pretty obvious that the next half-generation to few generations are going to have some epic battles against the ultra centralized mindset that seeks to cull the population. I also have hope for Eastern Europe due to the incredibly paranoia and distrust there from their famines, gulags, psychiatry labeling abuse, wars and fatal gossiping, even if for the moment it just comes across as a dour expression.

[–]destraht 1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah I don't consider the Baltics to be Eastern Europe in the way that I described, although obviously it falls into that category. Well soon enough I feel that Hungary will band with other countries to form an agreement, treaty or union or sorts with some of its neighbors that can then be referred to by name for some easier speaking.

I see that the Baltics in particular are caught up in one side of my "Refugees" and "Russians" Squeeze Theorem theory. They can be made to fear the Russians by playing back old reels like it was a WW2 era themed Friday night matinee. I've personally seen this tune played like a fiddle in Poland and Ukraine. Then there is the "refugees" (I won't stop quoting fuck that!) front on the other side but the ex-USSR and Warsaw Pacts aren't buying that one since they don't suffer from save-the-worldism. Next thing you know I'm going over just one country and suddenly the Russian threat is just so far away but the country just absolutely needs to be invaded by Muslims for the good of the world. Makes sense, I guess, uh, hmm. In Hungary they are immune to both fronts of the assault on rationality and so are thumbing their noses at these games.

Its all contrived as hell. Estonia will just be hard played due to their fears of Russians but amusingly they are terrified of a outright Special person dominated Russia, when in actuality Russia has put their Special people in their places more than most and those Special people types have just moved over into the EU to have their unfettered way with it. The traumatized Baltic people just never got the memo.

[–]politeAndLevelHed 0 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy Link

For example TOR Browser bundles stuff with Firefox

Mozilla (the company behind Firefox) is not your friend in this fight, in fact that are one of the leaders in eroding your freedom to think whatever you want.

[–]destraht 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

I agree but that thinking has minimally impacted the security and privacy of their browser (for now). Anyways I wasn't glorifying Mozilla but giving an example of how painless future dark web stuff can be. I find downloading a torrent of a movie to be easier than navigating an app store with a login. I can imagine a future dark web being easier to use than a locked down portal system on the light web.

[–]slam9 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

You don't need to resort to hypotheticals. Just look at Russia. After the revolution was won there were dozens of different progressive, liberal, socialist, communist, anarchist etc; groups with a decent presence. They were censored, exiled, gulag-ed, and killed.

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

The Overton window is closing significantly. Its happening in front of our eyes. I’m trying to gauge where the rightwing is telling the truth and where they’re distorting the truth for their own purposes. It would be naive to say only one side manipulates the narrative.

Is there a separation between the SJW culture war and the current liberal attack on speech all over the internet. Are these two faces of the same enemy or two separate enemies. There is a lot going on right under the surface. I don’t have answers just more questions.

FB is lit up with the great zucking of 2018 where 800+ meme and non-liberal oriented pages were shut down. Add in the demonetizations and bannings all over the place. Add in the reddit purges. The thoughtpolice are out in force. Are their different police in the culture war vs the current state of US politics.

We have the perfectly timed migrant caravan, the weird mail bomber thing then a mass shooting all in the lead up to a critical midterm election in the US.

One of the libertarian meme pages I follow posted a meme Saturday morning that said “if the caravan and mail bomber aren’t enough.. then show the pic of sponegebob opening a case that said “mass shooting””. 4 hours after I saw that meme was when I heard reports of the synagogue shooting. Its highly uncanny.

There’s too much coincidence. My plan has been to bail on the west. I’m not convinced we are going to make it through the 10yrs I need to realize my plans. It’s actually quite concerning really and nobody seems to give a shit.

Honestly the impact to 'culture war' in this particular case is negligible.

The guy should be allowed to fail all on his own. Plus a lot of that whole industry is based on flipping. These connected peoples sites generated enough waves of investment that they end up creating their own weather patterns. The guy might be an idiot because I have no idea about him personally but I'd bet that if he was doing the leftists bidding then he would be a darling instead of a pariah.

// , What seems heavy handed on the part of these Online Payment Processors and Web Hosting Providers is more likely just an effort at self preservation.

It's not an effort at censorship so much as revenue preservation.

Big companies like that operate like robots.

They don't have opinions, and have a heavily vested interest in avoiding even the appearance of having one.

This may not necessarily justify removing sites that the media or outspoken activists deem controversial, but it does explain it a lot more than the "Corporate Big Brothers" bogeyman story.

Because of this, it just means that the corporate Overton Window is a much smaller subset of the personal.

It's cause for concern, but quoting "First they came..." is overreacting.

[–]RedHeimdall 4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Google, Facebook etc do not make more money by de-platforming Alex Jones. They do not make more money by censoring conservative news and opinion. Target did not make more money by championing tranny bathrooms.

All these big corporations are powerful agents advancing liberal ideology. Sometimes it is a lower priority than their profits. But other times, as in the examples I mentioned or the many others one could cite, it takes precedence over their own financial interests.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

So the assclown that runs Gab had it hosted on GoDaddy? Fucking GoDaddy? How is it that they didn't kick him already?

Gab has painted a target on itself of a size such that it is insane for them to expect not to be hassled and fucked with. Seriously, how is that shit not already hosted on a bitcoin-paid server in cave in Switzerland or something?

This is just a case of straight up incompetence on the part of Gab. Play hardball and you're going to get hit.

I'm still angry with Mozilla for ousting the inventor of JavaScript as CEO because he made a donation to the winning side in a gay marriage referendum in California years prior.

At the time I was completely shocked - how can your personal political opinions determine whether you may be CEO?! Especially in a tech company when your claim to fame was inventing JavaScript?!

Now it has become completely normal for the far-left to target individuals who dare to have a different opinion - and demand their employers sack them on the basis that their opinion is outrageous to current standards of decency.

Everything has become topsy-turvy. And the worst crime you can commit is to say something even slightly offensive. The British police have no time to investigate robberies, but they've got all the time in the world to arrest somebody who upset somebody else on Twitter.

The irony is that it isn't offence that has become indecent - it is offending the left-wing. Because you can publish as much overt hatred about Christians and white males as you like, in fact you can publish comment inciting violence against right-wing demonstrators in most of the main subs of Reddit.

So we have a group of people who are changing societal standards far beyond what anybody born 30 years ago would recognise - and they are seeking to ghetto-ise (by stripping people of their ability to be employable) anyone that disagrees with the new regime.

I'm wondering how many years we are from death camps for white males and right-wingers (or even, dare I say it, centrists, if The Crucible by Arthur Miller is any warning).
