It’s time if you haven’t already done so, to at least think about breaking away from these controlled and controlling Big Tech fake Americans.
Top social media executives poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into Joe Biden’s presidential campaign and the Democratic party. Simultaneously, NYPost’s exposure of Hunter Biden’s dealings overseas was censored from certain social media platforms.
The government may (may…) go after these thought criminals. However, we all have the power to excise them from our lives. And who didn’t already know about the rampant biases? Strike that. I’m dealing with a Gamma troll elsewhere who obviously feeds his retardation from places like Faceberg and the TeeVee. At this point, if you’re still reliant on an enemy who hates you, you kind of deserve the treatment.
Let’s try this! Last week’s (in my opinion) sad short column was a hit. I sometimes get a contact or two in the wake of decent pontification, but it’s rare to receive a call from a well-connected Washingtonian type concerning the novelty and prescience of my hypothetical ponderings. And, no, I didn’t expect either the Senate Armed Services Committee or the Pentagram to think about reality. Alternatively, and before moving on, if all else fails, I will take possession of the nukes.
Moving on! Here are a few self-serving announcements which I’m confident you’ll find helpful.
Prepper Post News
I have a pod and videocast. Well, it turns out that I already had one though I did not know it. They were taking my daily news briefs and having a robot read them. Patron protests brought me in as the host. Soon, I hope to have a real studio for this endeavor. Find that, a daily commentary on some of the more interesting items in the news, from a charming if subdued ultra-right nationalistic perspective, Monday through Friday at:
I think it appears elsewhere, but that is beyond my pay grade. This platform will also allow exploration of weightier topics in a format most friendly in this post-literate age.
A sample:
We’re trying to build the following while appeasing the SJW demons, which is as hard as it sounds. As-is, we’ve grown a small but vocal list of fans who greatly contribute via the comments section under the videos. If you join, please consult my instructions on the 11/12 and 11/13 posts. (If you bring us spam, things may not go so well).
Yes, some of you may be aware that we have already run into a healthy dose of old-fashioned censorship. YouTube blocked one video, I think because of the title (which I do not assign) – although it’s impossible to discern since they don’t tell you. And, also not of my doing because I’m not there, we (Freedom Prepper) have hit a snag at Mark Zuckerbook’s low-IQ spy and misinformation publishing site, Farceberg.
To counteract and circumvent these problems, we will soon launch,
Freedom Prepper Community!
This will be a forum for all things prepping and general news. However, it is my understanding that it may quickly morph into a more universal information and social media platform. I have a tentative link, but it’s so tentative that I’ll just hold that. You can sign up for updates HERE. There’s much more to come on that front and it is approaching rapidly.
We’re already plastered across all the mainstream socials – even TikTok! I didn’t know about that until recently – you can imagine my reaction. But, again, it is a way to reach an audience. Do not look for me anywhere other than the videos and the coming forums. Blah, blah, blah, it’s the beginning of a media empire. Watch out FAUX News!
The process starts with the beautiful beans, carefully selected by yours truly, and the prepper elves deep in the jungles of an undisclosed country which might be Columbia.
A little green they are. So, they get roasted to perfection.
High-tech shit with smoke suppression! And, here’s how they come out:
That’s about as perfect as beans get! No, as of my writing time I have not tasted them. But, a sample batch is allegedly in the mail. I’ll have more soon, just as I have assurances that they are terrific. You’ll want to order by the case, no doubt.
The beans, whole or ground, will arrive in a container, of course. Those are in prototype development at the moment, though they should look something like this:
By the way, custom coffee mugs are being crafted even as we speak. Order a dozen!
Now, on the bags, there’s going to be a little space for a prepper-ish saying. Think of it as a series similar to the “Blue Star” factoids on the labels of Newcastle beer bottles. I’ve already drafted about two dozen of those; you’ll see them soon enough.
Enough! Enough of this stand-in, stalling, rambling excuse for a column, right? Hey, I understand you people had another fun election. I’ll bet you’re so happy about and not at all confused by the outcome. I’ll have more to say – though maybe not much beyond what I’ve already long-since said – after the … what do you call it? – after the legal certification thing. Then, we’ll be moving on to a bright, happy 2021! Well, you’ll move where they tell you; I’ll be in a production studio surrounded by coffee bags.
Next week, a look at the sewing machine crisis ongoing in Pakistan. Until then…
With the renewed interest in leaving the Farceberg, especially among preppers, here’s an oldie about how to do it. Note: the process may have changed.
I just pulled the trigger on Zuckerberg’s spy site and Lordy it feels good. If you’re still on history’s most invasive voluntary spying network, I hope you’re happy. And I hope you’re aware of how they track you. My advice would be to leave. Here’s how:
Over the past year or so I slowly drew down my presence, bit by bit, until all that remained was a sealed list of friends and admin abilities on two FP forums. I also used the “service” to like and promote TPC columns. No more.
Start with Logging In
That the stock birthday listed on the startup page is after I graduated from high school says something.
Log In and Get Harrassed
This greeted me immediately as it has for the past few weeks. I’m toning it down and they want more info. and control. Eff You, Zuck!
Really Bothersome:
I saw this before I posted my final (to FB) PNW video.
A Final Consult with the “Secret” Info. File
You really must review the files. Despite all my recent cleanups, I still had to do a final sweep before,
Proceeding to Delete:
Here We Go!
Begone, Evil!
And, Done.
Of course, of course, it will take 14 days – assuming they really delete it. I’ve heard they try to wrangle people back in. On Day 15 or 16 I will do a confirmation test.
I will surely miss all of my friends, real and digital, from FB. There’s no telling how long I’ll have to go without the following: cat videos; dinner pictures; friend requests from hookers, robots, creeps, and spies; raving mad political, social, and religious commentary; pointless low-IQ idiocy, and; the general angst that comes from being watched by a narcissistic evil genius who refers to his users as “dumb f**ks.”
I’ve been on this for some years now: Perrin’s First Law of Terrorism: Terror suspects are ALWAYS known to authorities in advance. Always. And, again! In Vienna, while the story keeps predictably shifting around after yesterday’s attack(s), it is no surprise that the prime suspect was just released from prison early. He had been locked up for suspected TERRORISM!
The Islamist marauded through the streets wearing a fake explosives belt and injured 22 as he fired at random before he was ‘neutralised’ – shot dead by police at 8.09pm.
Fejzulai killed an elderly man and woman, a young male passer-by and a waitress.
A 28-year-old police officer was shot but is said to be in a stable condition, while seven civilians who were injured are in a critical, life-threatening condition.
Fejzulai had been jailed in April 2019 for trying to join Islamic State but he was granted early release in December under juvenile law because he was under 19-years-old at the time of his offending.
Fejzulai was not deemed capable of carrying out an attack and Interior Minister Karl Nehammer admitted that the terrorist had fooled the country’s judiciary be enrolling on a de-radicalisation course.
He even broadcast his plans on social media. And, a “de-radicalisation course????” Fool us once, huh? How about this: a rope is impossible to fool, and it guarantees no follow-up attacks. Diversity rope is our greatest strength!
I hope to remember this one, after the “big day” for the prepper newscast, which is proving much more popular than one would think.
And, as for popular, my but we have some interest around here, lately. Thanks. Quality will improve tomorrow. I promise. I suppose some of you might be looking for my final pronouncements on the circus. I made those months ago, though I will try (and today I’m kind of tired) to come up with one more something or another.
On Friday afternoon, I received a communique from Freedom Prepper high command. For unspecified TOS violations, Facebook issued a temporary (two-month!) restriction on “complex entities interactions” by FP’s hierarchy. This may have a moderate impact on material promotion. I’m going on three years of Facebergbook sobriety and I couldn’t be happier, though this was a crystal-clear reminder as to why I left and why I’m so happy about it. It also came the same week that an FP daily news video was inexplicably banned by YouTube.
Again, I am not on Facebook so I don’t know what, exactly, goes on there beyond spying, pitiful sales conversion, and low-IQ idiocy. Earlier this year, I removed the ability to link directly from this site to Facebook, along with a few other limitations which were received with minor reader protestation. It appears I made the right call. Accordingly, I want to do it again, even if that means a minor reduction in traffic (which is okay, because again, pitiful [nonexistent] sales conversion).
As many of you know or suspect, I am not an agent of the Empire nor a member of the worshipful bankster class. As such, I think protection under 18 USC §§ 1030, 2319, et seq, is essentially off-limits to me – not that I really want or need it. Here’s what I can do: I can tell those of you who care about it. I had toyed with the idea of requesting that no one post any material from this website to Facebook at any time or for any reason. Of course, I have no way to enforce that, so there we are. Not that it really matters.
As I will explain on tomorrow morning’s FP newscast (barring further censorship), I get why some are still (quasi-justifiably) on Farcebook. Enjoy yourselves if that’s possible, just know that Zuck and friends are not your friends.
Thank You,
PL
PS: We did it! October was the heaviest, best month at the old blog in two and a half years. Thanks.
A new report from Pew Research makes an attempt to better understand U.S. adults who get their news largely from social media platforms, and compare their understanding of current events and political knowledge to those who use other sources, like TV, radio and news publications. The top-level finding, according to Pew, is that social media news consumers tend to follow the news less closely and end up less informed on several key subjects.
That seems to reinforce a belief that many people already hold, of course — that people who get their news primarily from Facebook, for example, aren’t as informed.
SM does not attract the brightest bulbs. That, coupled with the woeful state of the “information” provided on SM (if any), easily explains the lack of knowledge. Across the board, except for independent sources (in all media), the same story is generally put forth by the same usual suspects. Discerning minds are frequently able to spot narratives and falsehoods wherever found. But that leads back to the lower IQs of people on SM, along with those watching TeeVee and reading, on-screen or in print. They get the same mass messages from Langley and Madison Avenue.
Of course, SM users get those delightful cat videos and such.
Except worse. Charles Hugh Smith makes the connections relevant to toxic socials.
What are the full costs of the current addiction to social media? These costs are even more difficult to measure than the consequences of widespread addiction to nicotine, but they exist regardless of our unwillingness or inability to measure the costs.
Consider the devastating consequences of social media on teen suicides. Here is one such story: Tragedy.
Then there’s all the lost productivity as social media addicts check their phones 150+ times a day, interrupting not just work or school but intimacy, up to and including sex.
The psychological attraction of smoking is the core of tobacco marketing, of course; no tobacco company sells cigarettes on the benefits of nicotine addiction. The pitch is that smoking cigarettes is glamorous and attractive because it’s “adult” and forbidden.
Anything that has the double allure of the forbidden and the glamorous is extremely compelling to social animals such as humans, who seek to “stand out” via glamour and risk-taking to heighten our social status, which plays such a life-changing role in the selection of mates and our position in the pecking-order hierarchy.
Social media shares certain aspects of these dynamics. While it’s not exactly glamorous, social media enables otherwise average individuals the golden opportunity to “stand out” and raise their social status by attracting more “likes” and positive feedback than other consumers of social media.
Thus, no social buttons here anymore. You’re welcome.
A few changes are in effect for 2020 (the remained of 2019 too).
First and most prominently, I have closed the comments for all new posts. I think I have sealed off older entries also. The post(s) of the current day still display “leave a comment;” however, ALL go to moderation without automatically appearing in sequence. Why? Well, anymore there aren’t that many comments in the first place. But you simply would not believe the garbage that the filters catch – spam, attacks, and walls of idiotic text. I’m done with that. I do apologize to the very few long-time readers who still leave thoughtful comments. Most of you know how to get ahold of me if there’s something that has to be added via a quoted update. And, should I find one of your comments before it flys off to the land of moderation, I’ll happily let it through. The “like” feature remains.
Second, I have removed all links to various (anti) social media. I have no interest in entertaining or confusing the 95 IQ denizens of Farcebook or Twitland. I almost left the WP “press” button and considered adding “print” or “email,” but, why? This is a ban on direct links; if it’s pressing, then you can always cut and paste a link address to the social or other function of your choice. As noted, the “like” feature is still here along with the “reblog” button. No apologies.
Third, the policy going forward is that this blog does not accept guest submissions. Nor will I answer inquiries regarding the same. The exception to this new rule would only apply to people whom I know and/or trust. Ironically, almost all of them have their own platforms. If you have a genuine interest in spreading some idea to the www, then please visit WP, Blogger, Wix, or some other development program and start your own forum. The rest of you, phish somewhere else.
As always, I reserve the right to make (or threaten to make) other changes. The foregoing is made in response to continuous activities here, noted and otherwise. And, there is a new direction on the internet of which I am becoming extremely dubious. I was not kidding, a while back, about the manual typewriter and electricity.
It’s going to be an exciting year. Please stay tuned and thank you for your support.
The Millennials and the Z kids are lonely, in spite of (or because of) all that social crapia…
According to a recent YouGov survey, some 30 percent of American millennials say that they are “lonely.” More than 20 percent report that they have no friends; a quarter claim to have no close ones. Many even insist that they have no “acquaintances,” which should, one hopes, be impossible. But I wonder. For even younger people, in so-called “Generation Z,” the figures are even bleaker.
We can make facile jokes about avocado toast and baristas with degrees in cultural studies who spend more time on Instagram than they do in real-life conversations with non-customers. There may be a bit of truth in these caricatures. But I’m not sure we should find them amusing.
Hey, kids! Let this Xer set you straight – with a little Boomer lyrical wisdom:
My channel’s languishing and I don’t really care. But, there are good videos in danger. I already know of a few removed. SJWs don’t sleep.
YouTube announced Wednesday it would ban videos promoting or glorifying racism and discrimination as well as those denying well-documented violent events, like the Holocaust or the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting.
The announcement by the Google-owned video-sharing platform was the latest of a series of tech industry moves to filter out hateful and violent content, which have spurred calls for tougher regulation.
“YouTube has always had rules of the road, including a longstanding policy against hate speech,” a company statement said.
“Today, we’re taking another step in our hate speech policy by specifically prohibiting videos alleging that a group is superior in order to justify discrimination, segregation or exclusion based on qualities like age, gender, race, caste, religion, sexual orientation or veteran status.”
Blah, blah, blah. Hang yourselves faster, social masters. The alternatives are out there.
