Title: Internet Censorship
Post by: SeanJohnson on June 06, 2019, 07:11:40 AM
just heard on the radio this morning that YouTube and other internet sites will begin censoring “politically incorrect” content, specifically mentioning “white supremacist” and “h0Ɩ0cαųst denial” content.

It seems that the window for the uncensored transmission of information is coming to an end.

In the not too distant future, information deemed “unacceptable” by the surveillance state will need to be relegated to the darkweb

Pretty soon they will be able to read our minds and whenever we even think bad thoughts, they will come for us.

"The thought police would get him just the same. He had committed--would have committed, even if he had never set pen to paper--the essential crime that contained all others in itself. Thoughtcrime, they called it. Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." [Book 1, Chapter 1] 1984

“Thoughtcrime does not entail death: thoughtcrime IS death.”

The Church traditionally condemned freedom of the press, and had the Index. From Mirari Vos:

Quote
Here We must include that harmful and never sufficiently denounced freedom to publish any writings whatever and disseminate them to the people, which some dare to demand and promote with so great a clamor.

A traditional Catholic shouldn't defend unrestricted free speech to defend publishing unpopular ideas.

Rather, show that the ideas are correct and defend the publication of truth because it is true.

I agree. We have the right to proclaim the truth.

Indeed!  God bless YouTube, Facebook, Google, and Twitter!  They are doing the right thing.  And hopefully, you h0Ɩ0cαųst deniers will be censored at the least.  And worse for you Jєω critics.

Down with free speech.  The guardians of political correctness--such as the ADL and the Southern Poverty Law Center--know best!  You all must be deradicalized because you are out-of-control reactionaries.  You must be muzzled.

I was not suggesting/defending such a thing as "freedom of speech" (a Masonic concept I have denounced many times on this forum).

I was suggesting that the time to discuss things such as 911, fake h0Ɩ0h0αx, etc. on the internet is coming to an end.

I agree, but I don’t think SJ believes in “unrestricted free speech”.

As time goes on, it will get worse and worse. This is the same MO that the commies employed during all those red revolutions across the globe years ago. This country is now in the process of a "soft" red revolution as we speak. But they are using the same NKVD tactics that they used by the Soviets used to silence all opposition, it's subtle now, but once they start turning the corner, it will become all too real. Really, the time to strike back is right now, especially with this administration.
But the sad part, the Donald is squarely in the Jєωs pocket, specifically the Zionists here and abroad.
I remember E Michael Jones pointedly stating that Trump will have to eventually make a decision whether it's America first or Israel first, well we all see clearly where he stands and now Jones is being erased off YT and eventually the Net. I see he is frantically posting videos and being interviewed just about every other day in order to get the message out there before they completely ban him all together. Let the censorship begin.

The thing is, censorship happens on nearly every forum-type site. Each site has its "orthodoxy" and will remove posts for questioning that orthodoxy. I think many of us have some experience of it. Try advocating sedevacantism or certain Feeney positions on certain conservative Catholic sites.

No, I wasn't, but I have seen the "free speech" notion elsewhere on conservative Catholic sites. It's often a reaction to being censored, which is understandable to some extent. Still, people advocating "free speech" vs. censorship often don't understand how a website "orthodoxy" develops, or what to do about it.

Forum "orthodoxies" are sometimes chosen positions (eg those Catholic sites that explicitly disallow sedevacantism), but in non-religious contexts like googtube it usually means some topics generated a lot of copmlaints, and were disallowed to save moderator time. Claiming a conspiracy, is rarely going to break through that. Also can't do much against bad will. However, pointing out that something censored was actually true has a fair chance with someone of semi-good will.

It doesn't matter whether 'they' care about our rights. What matters is that we give witness to the truth.
