The anti-democratic scum running social media.

About this time two years ago, I mulled over the reason I’d been blogging for years. That Christmas break I always take a couple or more weeks off blogging, enjoy family time, but it also gives you time to think. An essayist approach to blogging consumes a lot of time, so to turn off the computer and give them your exclusive attention is a pleasure. In return, they don’t have to look at dad hunched over a keyboard seeking for what the French call le mot juste – the right word.

The conclusion I came to was we’d won the climate wars. Sure, it wasn’t just us, we’d all served honourably and usually at some personal expense. There was also an element of what became known as climate fatigue – you can only scare people to death a certain number of times before they become inured to it.

It think it’s a Greek or Roman proverb – the price of eternal vigilance is indifference.

Sure, there are still holdouts and fanatics, but it’s been a very long time since the environment by any decent honest poll has made it into the top fifteen concerns of ordinary people. It was a long and vicious war but we won it. When the Guardian announces it’s closing down its environmental coverage, that’s a final white flag being waved. Knowing that we’d already triumphed, my concern had already moved to protecting the platform we used to gainsay the mainstream media narrative. We fought the war on the web, because it was the only organ of information dissemination they didn’t control.

Some feedback on announcing that decision politely indicated I might be trying on the tin foil hat for size, but subsequent events have I think proved my forebodings correct. The liberal and extreme left want to own the web as well, and their brutal exclusion from social media of any opinion the doesn’t agree with their agenda confirmed my worst fears, especially in the run up into the mid-terms. There’s not even been a pretense of being even-handed.

We’ve had over a year of Mueller’s desperate investigation of the ludicrous proposition of Russia being able to influence over 150 M American voters and at the end of it, he’s ended up shuffling around Washington like an incontinent idiot with his trousers and soiled underpants down by his ankles. The reason you haven’t heard much of him lately is quite simply his “investigation” has inadvertently blown both the FBI and the DoJ out of the water and the CIA is in full shit duck and dive mode from the various electric fans Mueller’s investigation have kicked into life. Mueller is an orphan these days, but Trump cruelly refuses to close him down.

He’s being kept in place to show America what the Washington swamp looks like. Always four moves ahead of an imploding Democrat party, and about five from the idiots who think they’re still in charge of the GOP. The penny is finally dropping after all the firing Trump has done – you still serve at the pleasure of the president and not some mob of lemon sucking losers who think they can overturn the democratic will of the people. In response, I have a feeling that the Republican turnout at these mid-terms will break all records.

Despite the pure retro McCarthyite searches for reds under the beds interference in elections, Mueller has turned up absolutely zip after a year of flaccid investigation. The fake news establishment like CNN have leapt on anything however irrelevant Mueller could produce, and did their best hand job to wank it up to some Earth-shattering event to boost their flagging ratings. The last time I looked, the children’s cartoon channel had higher viewing numbers than CNN. Good luck with selling it off by the way, you’ll need it.

But of course the story they’re all pointedly ignoring is the blatant interference in the mid-term elections by the current masters of the universe running social media like Google, Facebook, Twitter and Youtube.

They’re not only deplatforming prominent conservative people and conservative organisations, it looks like that’s being extended to any supporter or anybody who ever subscribed to their feeds.

It’s brutal and simple, they’re pushing a liberal agenda by simply suppressing any viewpoint that isn’t liberal. My feeling though is that the Dems are going to lose heavily in the coming week despite such blatant tampering by the social media masters of the universe scum, and you don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to know what the implications of that are.

It’ll give Trump a mandate to attack such monopolies, which are blatantly being abused. He’ll geld them.
