richravizza 26 #1 Posted July 5 Happy Fourth to All, I thought this thread appropriate. Out of the blue, no outline, no course but West. Please use video tools at will.As time always limited, shorts/Meme's and satire encouraged. A repost that got very little notice,comment or concern a year ago. Misinformation that is now accurate. Disinformation that was inverted as truth, or Censorship used as a form of retribution. Narrative destruction encouraged. Peace! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are actually banning specific words that you can no longer use in government. They want to ban courses of study (CRT) and thousands of books have been banned by conservatives across the country. Conservative preachers are actually holding book burnings again, and trans/crossdressing people are being cancelled and silenced by the right. Free speech has become a liberal cause, somehow.

richravizza 26 #8 July 18 (edited) I found it an irony of ironies; that a Christian Satire site being censored, motivated the most expensive investment in the Principle of our First. Some say; Like Alaska $44 Billion is a steal.... I like that politicians are fact checked in community notes ,Elon said."you need to realize you can't lie on this platform anymore" https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/lying-on-x-doesnt-work-elon-musk-shares-screenshots-of-kamala-harris-posts-on-trump/articleshow/111418605.cms Edited July 19 by richravizza Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well,I wonder why....Bye Bye racist baby and All boy aren't blue" seems that wasn't good enough for you. I wonder at what point does illicit content become applicable to your "censorship". Perhaps you didn't hear the preacher.. Last one Bill, tyranny and a corrupt gov't system,let that sink in. In the not blue book the perp wasn't arrested for their crimes,their morality never questioned.The opposite of what most teach their kids. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Censorship is also the word to apply to porn. You're just saying that conservatives get to establish "community standards" and liberals don't count.

Last one Bill, I grow weary of your posting YT videos as source citations rather than using academic or more scholarly sources. This latest video would demonstrate that you know nothing of CRT. The video is about porn. Of which I tend to agree. Can you please stop throwing youtube videos and just add to the conversation. Nobody is going to view the videos you post. I will read thru something longer if given a source, rather than listen to a 30 second video from FB or YT. PS There is an (R) after my name also. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Videos are better than most posters provide - at least the posters I haven't killfiled. Come to think of it, those in my killfile were given more to abuse than scholarly support for their positions. You are wrong about nobody viewing the videos. You don't want to watch them? Xin loi, nobody says you have to. As far as CRT goes, the original sources reveal it to be the worst sort of divisive identity politics with an overlay of Marxism, bound together with hand waving. Like KKK ideology, regardless of the merits of any of its claims it is fundamentally racist drivel, and both are beneath contempt for the same reasons. If you're cool with either, that is your call. Having said that, speaking in defense of CRT or the KKK will elicit a similar response. BSBD, Winsor Edited July 19 by winsor 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't interpret anything if you just listen to what others tell you to think. The analogy you presented about the KKK and CRT was inaccurate. The KKK is about promoting racism. CRT is about acknowledging racism not only exists, but was incorporated in laws creating an environment of restriction for minorities. But, I'm no "expert."
