Fact-Blockers

30th November 2021

John Stossel.

I’ve reported how Facebook censors me.

Now I’ve learned that they also censor environmentalist Michael Shellenberger, statistician Bjorn Lomborg and former New York Times columnist John Tierney.

Facebook’s “fact-checkers” claim we spread “misinformation.”

In my new video, Tierney argues that the “people guilty of spreading misinformation are Facebook and its fact-checkers.”

He’s right.

David Brooks Fisking Day Returns?

25th November 2021

The Other McCain faces a conundrum.

The basic problem with David Brooks is that he hasn’t been punched in the face as often as he deserves to be punched in the face.

Which is to say, repeatedly, on a daily basis.

On two occasions, I happened to be at conferences where David Brooks was a speaker, and in both instances, I walked out of the room, overcome by rage, struggling to resist an urge to rush the stage, grab hold of that swine and pummel him until the cops hauled me off to jail.

Don’t hold it in, Stacy, tell us how you really feel.

Say Goodbye to Swing Districts. Lawmakers Are Drawing Easy Wins in Dozens of States.

20th November 2021

Politico is upset.

The only people who benefit from ‘swing districts’ are the Narrative Media, who need the political ‘horse race’ in other to garner the attention that is the cornerstone of their business model.

An elected representative doesn’t (popular mythology to the contrary notwithstanding) everybody in that district; he (or she) (or it) only ‘represents’ the people who voted for that representative. (Mouths make noises but we all know the truth.) So the more people vote for a winning candidate, the greater the portion of the electorate is actually ‘represented’ by that candidate.

It is therefore obvious that so-called ‘gerrymandering’ promotes effective democracy, rather than being the moral failing that the Chattering Class would have you believe. Ideally, districts ought to be arranged so that the winning candidate gets as close to 100% as possible. That’s actual democracy in action.

So the next time an outlet like Politico complains about ‘gerrymandering’, know that they are consulting their wallets rather than some abstract principle of good-government.

MSNBC Banned From Rittenhouse Trial After Employee Follows Jury Bus; Boss Nukes Accounts

18th November 2021

Read it.

As day three of jury deliberations in the Kyle Rittenhouse murder trial began, Judge Bruce Schroeder banned MSNBC from his courtroom for the duration of the trial, after an employee claiming to be a producer with the outlet reportedly followed the van taking jurors home on Wednesday evening and was pulled over after running a red light.

“No one from MSNBC news will be permitted in this building … this is an extremely serious matter and will be referred to the proper authorities,” said Schroeder.

Apparently ‘journalists’ think that the rules don’t apply to them.

Earlier this month, a self-described ‘honorary nephew of George Floyd’ identified as Cortez Rice posted a disturbing video threatening to doxx Rittenhouse jurors if they don’t return a guilty verdict.

Totally unrelated, I’m sure.

Mobs have gotten away with threats and coercion so regularly that they feel entitled.

Left-Leaning Commission Calls on Biden Administration to Develop Strategy to Counter ‘Disinformation’

15th November 2021

Read it.

A commission made up of mostly left-leaning figures recommended Monday that the White House counter the spread of disinformation and “dangerous conspiracy theories online.”

The Aspen Institute Commission on Information Disorder released a number of recommendations Monday, which included calling upon the Biden administration to have an “apolitical team” develop a national strategy to tackle the issue.

I wonder if that would include all of the various hoaxes, ‘coup attempts’, and ‘dangers to democracy’ being fomented by the Narrative Media.

‘Messaging’ Is Difficult When Your Message Makes No Sense

7th November 2021

Read it.

Democrats struggle with “messaging,” because their message doesn’t make any sense. Critical Race Theory is not taught in schools, and parents shouldn’t be allowed to stop it from being taught in schools. It’s wrong to give experimental vaccines to dogs, and all children should be required to get a COVID vaccine despite the lack of research. Lack of minority representation in American culture is proof of our underlying racism, and we should remove all minority images from everything from baseball teams to pancake syrup.

Democrats can’t figure out how to unload a cargo ship, but they can control the weather 100 years from now. Blacks don’t have the opportunities that whites do, and it’s wrong when white kids claim to be black on their college applications so that they can get into a good school. Democrats want to spend trillions of dollars that don’t exist to fund projects that won’t happen because of setbacks that aren’t real.
