             Message in a Bottle

Picture
"It's an extraordinary thing to watch, as a very small handful of corporate media titans, who are the mainstream press, act like helpless victims in the face of President Trump's Twitter account. It's like watching a half-dozen alley cats after a mouse, complaining that this lone mouse has them outnumbered. Not surprisingly, the other cats agree that this wayward mouse must be stopped. Only then can the cats be safe."

​Message in a Bottle

Facebook is severely restricting the reach of Conservatives, as is YouTube, and Twitter. They are quite literally censoring them on a mass scale. YouTube began this process about a year ago when it began demonetizing certain videos, meaning, the people who produced the video couldn’t earn any revenue, even if the video got millions of hits. A video featuring someone putting baby powder in a hair dryer as a prank, by comparison, could be highly profitable. But a video by Dennis Prager, for his “Prager University” series, could get millions of hits, and not make a single dime. What had been profitable, almost immediately, no longer was.

Dennis Prager is an author, and has debated and lectured at universities all over the world, including Oxford. Most of his videos feature high-level scholars offering a historical perspective on complex issues. Even so, his videos were flagged and demonetized. The motive behind this is simple; if you can’t profit from your labor and creativity, you’re out of business. That is what the Silicon Valley tech giants, who control this new digital universe are doing, driving Conservatives out of business.

Meanwhile, The New York Times hires a young Korean woman as an editor who’s tweets are filled with anti-White, genuinely hate-filled language, including posts about White genocide, and they justify it in the name of diversity or dismiss it as trolling. You can read the same kind of openly anti-White, anti-male, and anti-American writing daily on BuzzFeed, The Huffington Post, including flagship newspapers like The New York Times and The Washington Post.

The New York Times primary owner is the Mexican national, Carlos Slim, who is also one of the 3 or 4 richest men in the world. He is an open borders advocate. The Washington Post is owned by the richest man in the world Jeff Bezos. From both papers, The Times and The Post come “The Resistance.” Hillary Clinton’s resistance, which is where the term came from. Apparently, they’re for the little guy, fighting that evil billionaire, Donald Trump. Who, relatively speaking, is a very minor billionaire.

The “Powers that Be” are circling the wagons and have had enough of this rebellion, which gave us President Trump in the U.S., and Brexit in the UK, and are in the process of nullifying both, under the guise of Russian meddling, racism, xenophobia, and whatever else can be concocted by that tiny handful of media titans that control the global media. Thus, making it safe once again, to never hear a discouraging word, as long as you vote the right way.

So, leave the big decisions to the big boys, they’ll determine what’s fit to hear and read. And won’t it be grand?

Silence, sweet silence, and ignorance too. That’s how you experience bliss, just ask them, they’ll tell you.
