Cancel Culture Wave, Or Voices With Different Views Are Silenced
Reading over Ace of aces experiences with other Clubs rationale for being dismissed (COUGH!) reminded me of the current Cancel Culture Wave.

Thumper's support for Ace by also stepping aside, reminds me that the current political policies to look the other way to Big Tech's Censorship that alternative views and opinions are in real jeopardy in America. Again, the Progressives are rewriting the American Constitution and the Bill of Rights through this Facisism.

Can't criticize Thumper for not staying "in the fight", however. Getting whip-sawed like what Ace described sure gets old. If we got together we probably could get this kind of systemic abuse reported, and have GK issue a warning, but how much good would that be?

Some people have said that Conservative Cancel Culture started the current Cancel Culture Wave. I say that Conservatives are only trying to protect our Freedoms and Rights, the American Progressive Agenda started it first.

Comments, gentlemen, please?

Three Recent Examples of CCW
As a subscriber of The Epoch Times, which incidentally is facing censorship from YouTube if they mention certain topics, has three reports about CC in their Feb 10-16 publication.

"Twitter Permanently Suspends ‘Gateway Pundit’ Account"

The social media giant said the account, run by conservative Jim Hoft, was suspended for repeated violations of its “civic integrity policy,” according to a statement viewed by media outlets. The policy states that users may not use the platform “for the purpose of manipulating or interfering in elections or other civic processes.”

"YouTube, Vimeo Take Down Lindell Election Fraud Video"

"Per our presidential election integrity policy, we remove content uploaded after the safe-harbor deadline” that includes claims that “fraud, errors or glitches changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S. presidential election,” YouTube spokesperson Alex Joseph told The Washington Times and other news outlets on Feb. 6. “We removed this video and its reuploads in accordance with this policy.”

"Facebook Will Take Down Posts With Claims About Vaccines It Deems False"

“Today, we are expanding our efforts to remove false claims on Facebook and Instagram about COVID-19, COVID-19 vaccines, and vaccines in general during the pandemic,” said a post from the social media giant. “Since December, we’ve removed false claims about COVID-19 vaccines that have been debunked by public health experts.”

My leaving FL was a statement, not a capitulation. I have my own club that embraces differing viewpoints, not shut them down. I had no compelling reason to continue 'support' of FL's antagonism. They needed me more than I need them. Though there are club members there that I enjoy and respect, I left them to their own devices. The left needs someone to rail against, hate on and attack to flourish, or they flounder in their own self perpetuating narcissism.

Look what happened to 1A after conservative thinkers were hounded until they finally left the club... Just a small handful of hard leftists are left, stroking each others' egos. Granted, a couple of them are pretty cool individually but as a group they pretty much suck.

Thumper
Would you still be taking me to task had you taken note of . . .

"Can't criticize Thumper for not staying "in the fight", however. Getting whip-sawed like what Ace described sure gets old."?

I have great respect for you and your points or view. The few times I have mistakenly criticized you have turned out to have been bad decisions for me. Your rebukes are worst than a snake bite

I'm learning to be more careful now 😉.

Don't take Democracy for granted.

IHS is correct. Democrats' " Cancel Culture " is similar to book burning in Germany, Cultural Revolution in China and Stalinist's era purges in former Soviet Union. At that time, all other different views were silenced, dissidents were rounded up, tortured, put in prisons or even killed them. Millions of people died.

Freedom is not free. We have to defend and even fight for our freedom. This is a historical fact that Republicans led by Abraham Lincoln from the north had to fight a bloody Civil War to liberate the African slaves from the racists and separatists of the southern Democrats.

American voters should not be fooled by their propaganda " Cancel Culture " which is nothing but a ploy and scheme to make Democratic party to stay in power forever.

Taking Democracy For Granted
Appreciate Ace's post here!

The only thing which I would add to it;

Included in this fight to protect America is the importance of the education of the American youth which should include comprehensive courses in American History. Didn't President Trump initiate a thing called "The 1776 Project"?

Getting involved in the subject matter of our American public schools would help prevent the Socialist Progressive indoctrination now taking place!

Jesse Watters on Fox touched on the rediculous explanation for eliminating Dr Suess on a program recently. Yet they want to include our children reading about "cross dressing"!

It's certainly not worth mounting any sort of campaign to report other clubs. That is the sort of behavior that crazy people engage in.

The famous people are certainly behaving in a crazy manner with regards to cancel culture. It's a downward spiral of virtue signalling and attacking each other. One would think people would be smart enough not to say anything at all, anymore.

And that's exactly what they want. And that's why we need MORE people like Trump and not less. That the media was able to remove Trump from the internet (for the most part) should be absolutely terrifying to anyone who has any sort of cognitive ability.

Full Bore, Let Nothing, NOTHING, Stand In The Way
American Patriots were warned if the Leftist Progressive Socialist Democratic Party won the Election, they were going to continue to completely transform our American Republic into a Socialist/ Communist country!

This HR 1 piece of legislation is going to gut our Constitutional Law as far as what they're going to do to eliminate any form of the American people having a say about future Elections!

Today I was reading an old article from the Epoch Times about that in-your-face Times magazine article After the Election. They were actually bragging about the Election RIGGING.

We can try buckling in until the next Election, but anyone with any sense has to see they're going to fix all future Elections and there's nothing that's going to be done about it seeing that not one damned Republican standing up against it.

If the 75 million people who voted for Trump don't start making a fuss, I don't know how this is going to go.

Looking VERY bleak to me right now.

Don't lose hope. We can hold our own elections where people vote and then the votes are counted.
