  • Police cars are driving through neighborhoods, sirens blaring, scanning for dissidents to arrest.
  • Which has the sole purpose of terrifying the public into submission.

  • Charlotte, NC — On Saturday, a group known as Really American released an attack ad against conservatives that went viral on Twitter.
  • The video reached over 2 million views by late in the evening and was trending as one of the top tweets.
  • The video depicts images of President Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson, Republican Sen.’s Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Tommy Tuberville, and Rep. Kevin McCarthy.
  • The video depicts images of the riots around the Capitol and is calling to remove all of these Republicans.
  • As the video was being shared online, it was sparking outrage against conservatives. Comments ranged from remove all conservatives from the country, social media and the airwaves, and more.
  • Some said that these individuals destroyed lives and had sewn hate for years.
  • Apparently, no one on the Twitter threat recalls any of the riots throughout 2020 where the destruction caused millions in damages. Others were comparing the Republicans to Nazi Germany and Hitler, a common comparison in recent days.
  • Twitter allowing the video to exist on the platform and trend like this shows the bias of the organization.
  • Had this been a tweet from President Donald Trump,they would have blamed them for inciting violence and riots, spewing white supremacy and hate.
  • This is where the censorship issue becomes dangerous. By blocking President Donald Trump and others, Twitter and other big tech companies have pushed a divisive narrative. They are saying that it is ok to eliminate someone if you do not agree with what they say.
  • The bias and discrimination that are being displayed is astounding. This is not a promotion of free speech or an exchange of ideas. This is an outright attempt to eliminate nearly half of the US population from being able to exist in society.

  • Brexit leader Nigel Farage warned that lockdowns in the United Kingdom are pushing the country into a full-on police state
  • Which is predicting that the battle to regain individual liberty will be a tougher struggle than leaving the European Union.
  • Mr Farage said that is unlikely that the British government will relinquish the emergency powers it has accumulated during the coronavirus crisis.
  • He later asked,”Do we have enough independently-minded MPs in Westminster to challenge the executive once we’re through this crisis to say those powers need to be returned, those liberties and freedoms need to go back to the people?”
  • Farage said,” I’m beginning to think that the battle for our individual liberty could be an even bigger battle than the battle to get us out of the European Union.”
  • He suggested,”“It is turning neighbour against neighbour, it is turning people against the police force, and it is not going to stop the spread of this virus.”
  • Mr Farage pointed to a “very disturbing video from Scotland,” in which police burst into a family’s home and threatened them with arrest for allegedly breaching the coronavirus restrictions.
  • When in fact the family’s “guest” was their sick daughter who was recently discharged from hospital.
  • On Wednesday, London’s Metropolitan Police Service announced that officers have been told to “issue fines more quickly” to those without “reasonable excuses” for being outside of for not wearing a mask.

  • The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is rarely, if ever, on the side of conservatives. In fact, they usually favor Democrats’ policies and decisions.
  • But now the civil rights organization is speaking out about Big Tech’s decision to permanently ban President Donald Trump from their platforms.
  • According to the ACLU, Americans should be concerned about the “unchecked power” that social media platforms have.
  • ACLU Senior Legal Counsel Kate Ruane said in a statement, “We understand the desire to permanently suspend him now, but it should concern everyone when companies like Facebook and Twitter wield the unchecked power to remove people from platforms that have become indispensable for the speech of billions – especially when political realities make those decisions easier.”
  • The organization reminded followers and supporters that the same thing could happen to them.
  • President Trump can turn his press team or Fox News to communicate with the public, but others – like many Black, Brown, and LGTBQ activists who have been censored by social media companies – will not have that luxury.
  • “It is our hope that these companies will apply their rules transparently to everyone,” the statement concluded.
  • Conservatives have been concerned about Big Tech censorship for years. It’s something we’ve all talked about in depth, especially with debates over Section 230 protection.
  • Free speech and a free press are important aspects of our society.
  • Having a tech company decide who should and should not be allowed on their platforms – including the leader of the free world – is a dangerous thing.
  • They’re a private company and they have a right to do what they think is best. But maybe it’s time to address the elephant in the room and admit that stifling content that goes against their narrative isn’t healthy and only causes further division.
  • And the only ones who can address this issue, in full, is Congress.

  • Apple Inc and Amazon.com Inc have suspended Parler from their respective App Store and web hosting service.
  • They said that the social networking service popular with many right-leaning social media users has not taken adequate measures to prevent the spread of posts inciting violence.
  • The action by Apple and Amazon follows a similar move by Alphabet Inc’s Google on Friday.
  • Parler is favored by many supporters of U.S. President Donald Trump, who was permanently suspended from Twitter on Friday, and it is seen as a haven for people expelled from Twitter.
  • Apple said in a statement Saturday,” We have suspended Parler from the App Store until they resolve these issues.”
  • Apple had given Parler 24 hours to submit a detailed moderation plan, pointing to participants’ using the service to coordinate Wednesday’s siege of the U.S. Capitol.
  • Amazon suspended Parler from its Amazon Web Services (AWS) unit, for violating AWS’s terms of services by failing to effectively deal with a steady increase in violent content, according to an email by an AWS Trust and Safety team to Parler.
  • Parler Chief Executive John Matze lashed out at Amazon, Google and Apple, saying it was a coordinated effort knowing Parler’s options would be limited and it would inflict the most damage right as Trump was banned from other social media platforms.
  • In addition to Parler, right-leaning social media users in the United States have flocked to messaging app Telegram and hands-off social site Gab, citing the more aggressive policing of political comments on mainstream platforms such as Twitter Inc and Facebook Inc.

  • Ironically, Joe Biden, the uniter, compared Senators Cruz and Hawley to evil Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.
  • Actually, the opposite is true.
  • Joe knows unity! He’s the Bo Jackson of unity!
  • Democrats are the ones who resemble Nazis.
  • The above statement is proved because they are using the rally on Wednesday as an excuse to put their authoritarian rules in place so they can continue their censorship and control. It’s going to be a reign of terror under Biden-Harris.
  • Biden is using the same tactics as propagandists repeating words they want to reverberate in the media. He repeats the words “lie,” great lie, big lie” seven times in only two paragraphs.
  • He doesn’t explain why they are part of the big lie and doesn’t have to. The media will repeat it.
  • Nazis are the people shutting down the opinions of half the nation,Nazis are the people who want to control and judge us,Nazis are deciding what we can say and think and what you can hear and know.
  • It’s not Republicans trying to obliterate our history, tear down statues, ban perfectly fine literature, destroy anyone who disagrees with them, cancel the views of half a nation, and obliterate all that we’ve thought and honored throughout our short existence as a Republic – if we can keep it.
  • On a statement of Biden’s Nazi reference was clear and his repetitive use of the word “lie” was effective as propaganda. He sounded like he read Chapter 10 of Mein Kampf.
  • Remember the man in Florida who killed Trayvon? They morphed his photo on several occasions so he didn’t look hurt and appeared to be white.They cut off an audio clip of him describing Trayvon so he sounded racist.
  • Then there was the occasion of a Black Lives Matter riot with the MSNBC reporter saying the demonstration was mostly peaceful as a building was ablaze behind him. The examples are endless.

  • Former President Barack Obama took to Twitter on Friday to echo Joe Biden in claiming that the police response to the Capitol riots would have been harsher had the protesters been with Black Lives Matter.
  • Obama posted three articles to his page that each looked at why both law enforcement and federal authorities were not prepared for the Capitol to be raided for the first time in over two hundred years.
  • HE tweeted,”For those who are wondering why so much attention has been focused on the response of the Capitol Police to the Trump-inspired riots, here’s a data-driven article that provides some useful frame of reference.”
  • FiveThirtyEight published a study that concluded that between May and November of last year, authorities were “more than twice as likely to attempt to break up” a left-leaning protest than a right-leaning protest.
  • The study was carried out by the nonprofit Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project.
  • It found that when law enforcement did choose to take action.
  • They were more likely to use force “34 percent of the time with right-wing protests compared with 51 percent with left-wing protests.”
