Danger, Will Robinson
I must have used too many wrong words
According to some reports I read this morning, articles written on this platform have resulted in the authors being punished in some way.
This will most likely put those authors in the position of having to self-censor their work to avoid the danger of being watched by the “all seeing eye.”
Perhaps it’s time for us to come up with a book of code words to use instead of the trigger words that are being tracked.
Maybe our own cypher, which only our “special friends” will be able to read, with all the messages coded in such a way that a specific edition of some book would be required to translate the note. (Old school VPN)
Phrases could mean something different from what they say. For example:
“Nothing to see here” could mean, revolution is imminent.
“The only thing I’m resisting is a second helping of pie” could mean, meet tonight to sabotage something. Maybe the type of pie would refer to times and locations.
Passing the messages may present a problem and there would be no possibility of a widespread dissemination of the message, but local is where it’s at anyway.
In any event, I believe we are going to see a lot more punishment and censorship as things continue to deteriorate.
Mind your tone.
There’s this guy.
He fancies himself to be an astute and well-read observer of the human condition. For the last several weeks, he has been putting posts on his Facebook page regarding the true cause of the homeless problem in America.
After “extensive” research, he has determined that the homeless problem has nothing to do with people not having homes or enough food or adequate medical care or counseling or no possibility of ever finding a job or escaping the situation they are in, what has caused the problem, what is at the root of the issue, what the homeless and starving population need more than food or homes or a social structure that instead of helping, has abandoned them, is a proper education.
This thought process is similar to the city of San Francisco who decided, after building a huge, unnecessary new library, to make sure that there were a sufficient number of computers to ensure that all the homeless would have access to the internet. Since we all know that on the list of needs that homeless people have, their lack of access to the internet is number one, this was viewed as a great and progressive move on the part of the politicians.
So back to this guy, he has proven over the last five to six years to be quite masterful at completely ignoring any facts that contradict his opinions. He trots out people like Malcolm X, takes their words out of context, and then uses those words to back his position, establishing what he claims is a “historical precedent” for his views, and at the same time dismissing any historical information that proves him wrong.
He is the same person who did “extensive research” into the 1918 flu pandemic, and used 100-year-old diatribes by anti-vaxxers of that time to cement his statements on why the vaccines are killing people, he did, of course, ignore one hundred plus years of medical science and innovation.
I’m telling you about this guy not because I fucking hate him (okay, maybe I do fucking hate him) but because this is just another example of the bullshit that we’re up against.
This is not going to stop, but if you are reading my page then you already know this. I just think that we need to remind ourselves about the enemy, and the potential for harm that they present.
Things in the future:
I may be changing this page some to make it easier for me to continue bringing you the hard-hitting news and satire that you’ve come to count on.
Sunday will be just music because most of you read the same things I do I’m not really providing articles that are new or relevant to you, but I do listen to music that you don’t listen to, so that might help broaden your horizons a bit.
Monday and Wednesday will be new, and hopefully more in depth articles.
Tuesday and Thursday will be either off or something funny or clever (if I can think of anything funny or clever to say.)
Friday will be The Priest
Saturday will be quotes.
Being the somewhat hardcore activist that I am, I have to wonder what type of censorship Substack will try to bring? I ran into that on Medium a while back and decided to post here instead, with a copy sent to Medium for the small handful of people who actually do read my drivel there. Medium started shadow banning my political articles and stories by burying them so deep few could find them without a direct email.
Will Substack start doing that too? I have no desire to try and set up a coded alphabet in order to talk to my friends or publish my thoughts. Too much trouble. I guess I'll just have to wait and see if anything goes awry in the future and deal with it. I suppose if Substack banishes me, I can always post to my own website blog but I would lose a lot of readers if I did that. My website has an Irish name and most English speaking people can't be bothered unless it has some kind of catchy English name.
If you do decide to go all covert and such down the road, you'll have to send us a decoder of some sort. Bad ces to the peelers if they want to start suppressing our free speech here on these platforms.
As for the encryption idea watch the movie "Zero Dark 30" and pay attention to the efforts taken by OBL. The only way to encrypt a message securely is to transfer the encryption code by hand between parties and only use it once. The Internet is an open book to the government. Proton mail may be "end to end encrypted" but Google wrote the Android operating system and the email is decrypted for you to read. Nuff said?
Federal law prohibits an encryption routine they can't read as well.
I thought the movie was a nice piece of propaganda because I think obl was already dead but it did shed some light on message handling and the surveillance capabilities and methods (that they allowed shown) of the CIA
As for the homeless asshole he's just parroting the MSM and government. The homeless "crisis " is being created by the government as part of the corporate master plan to take over America. "Safety nets" are meaningless words on paper to cover up the takeover. It's all THE BIG LIE.
America isn't being destroyed. It has been. Trump is just putting the final touches on the destruction to complete the Nazi corporate work of art.
What I find most humorous is the fact that the right wing Christians voted in what I would consider to be the Anti Christ. The slick tongued talking satanic liar, promising a utopia from Revelations. Satan managed to fool the Bible thumping true believers!
