In another wave of attacks on conservatives, Youtube is blocking and/or demonetizing conservative video producers en masse. I started this rant on Facebook, but decided to move it over to my blog to avoid its being banished to virtual hell by Zuckerberg's Gestapo. I'm not sure, but we may be seeing a fully mobilized, concerted attack on conservative voices beginning in earnest. Here's what's happening.
Despite earlier ruling that Steven Crowder met YouTube guidelines, the Google subsidiary, YouTube, has demonetized his videos en masse, effectively cutting off a major portion of his income in an obvious effort to silence his voice. Meanwhile poisonous leftist sites guilty of doxing, harassment, obscenity and outright lying remain firmly in place on the video host site. Other less-careful, less litigious conservative pundits than Crowder are being outright banned in this latest pogrom of pro-Constitution, pro-conservative websites. Massive numbers of Prager University's tasteful and factually correct videos have been demonetized and I expect another anti-conservative pogrom against PU in the next few days.
Reminds me of 1939 Europe. The war may have been started already as the leftist media ramps up its efforts to remove the president and discredit conservatives altogether before the crucial 2020 election.
It's a war, make no mistake about it. At present it's a cold civil war, but given the history of the left throughout the 20th century, it won't stay cold for long if they gain enough power.
The first American revolution began with the shot heard round the world. It began because the Redcoats were coming to Concord to confiscate the citizens' guns. We may find we're in a second American revolution when the Deep State comes for our guns again. I pray the US military will choose to heed their oath to defend the Constitution because that is indeed what is under assault.
We need to all agree on a new video provider - a kind of Youtube 2.0 if we are going to keep from being silenced. I've already moved a lot of my social media traffic to MeWe, which is growing significantly thanks to conservative flight from oppressive leftist social media providers. We need phone apps that support these sites and resources that allow us to dramatically cut our support of web providers who obviously hate us and want us gone.
We should oblige them.
We should oblige them.
I truly believe we are seeing the beginning of the last movement of Satan's forces against those who are Christ's own. Not all of these are conservative Christians. Not all of these folk even believe in God. They are simply people looking for Grace in a world filled with hate. These souls hunger and thirst for a world safe for the good, the kindly, the loving and free - people who have no desire to have power over their fellow man; no desire to be Lords of the Earth.
As the last events unfold, remember that Christ's coming is not a conquest, but a rescue. When the good folk who trust in Him or would have if they'd ever met Him are taken up and go, this world will destroy itself in an orgasm of violence and turn itself into a lake of fire. We have the technology to do just that and when God withdraws from this Earth, there will be nothing to hold back the horrors mankind can inflict upon itself.
The wages of sin is death and I really believe that is literally so. I believe sin is self-destructive and inevitably suicidal. I believe we will make our own hell. I don't think God need lift a finger to obliterate evil men from the Earth. All He need do is step back to see the Earth cleansed by radioactive fire!
That may seem a little extreme to extrapolate from a YouTube ban on what it calls "hate speech" to the bloody end of the world. But then a few German tanks rolling into Austria, Poland, and Czechoslovakia didn't seem at the time to presage anything like the holocaust and the bloody conflict that would cost half a billion lives and plunge the world into horrors unimagined by the free world in 1939. Nor did it predict that in the aftermath of a World War, Communism would rise up on its hind legs and slaughter hundreds of millions more.

But it did.
When created, I think the left saw the Internet as a new way to control the proletariat. After all, they had been successfully controlling media for 50 some-odd years. Why not this tool. I mean they all had read Orwell in high school (though admittedly as an instruction manual rather than a warning). To the collective Progressive horror, though, the new communication tool opened doors to free speech, free expression and inexpensive highly effective means of producing quality podcasts, videos and websites for opinion makers who opposed progressivism. Things have been out of hand for a long time. I think our betters have decided it's time to shut us up for good before Donald Trump gets re-elected. I think they are looking to cut the right off from the Internet. All they need is their own Leni Riefenstahl to get the mind-control propaganda rolling.
And I know I sound all paranoid, but I grew up in the 20th century. I know the horrors that can be inflicted on us by those who think they need to control us ordinary schlubs "for our own good". We have raised up a new generation that, as Moses put it, "...knew not Joseph". Sadly, they will soon know what happens to them when the Josephs of the world are all dead or silenced.
In the meantime, I and millions of others are watchmen on the walls. We cannot be silent.
