Incidentally, its link appears on a general Google search including on Google Cache, but is suppressed in a "News" search, with an article attacking Lott's work appearing at the top of the page by two "researchers" of undisclosed political affinity that my money says will turn out to be sympathetic to Democrats.
My suspicion is an algorithm went searching to erase it from existence. If this is all it takes to get booted from a personal opinion and commentary blog, everything I post here is subject to being undone and Blogger is no longer a viable platform to publish on. Either that or some troll saboteur complained, and the same applies. Until I see if I can get this reversed, I'm going to need to limit activity here to promoting my articles as I search for a reliable repository for my work.
Remember when Facebook booted a post for wishing everyone a contemplative Bill of Rights Day?
UPDATE:
We're coming up on another pivotal election and the faschisocrats are desperate to control the truth vibe on the Interwebs. Oh what nefarious, book burners America has hiding in the dark recesses of her infested, crumbling big, bad blue cities.
ReplyDeleteAs all content, commentary, philosophical musings, argument and affirmation has effectively moved to the closely monitored and even more closely held 'cloud' it is ever easier to disappear anything the monitors and holders do not like.
ReplyDeleteWe are moving closer to the own nothing, rent everything from the company store economic model with each passing day.
Our 'leaders' nudge, push, and shove us ever closer to hell on earth and we do...nothing.
But we are not there yet. So long as a wee bit of open space exists we have the opportunity to apply counterforce...buffing my counterforce tools as I write. :)
Throttling down links to Paul Bedard, who, I think, is nothing but factual in everything he writes? What a shame, although not surprising. Same for John Lott. Clearly, Blogger doing their best to reduce traffic to those who don't follow the liberal narratives.
ReplyDeleteI would suggest we all go back and watch the 1975 dystopian scifi movie "Rollerball." In it, countries still exist but national governments have no more power than currently wielded by the British Monarchy or the Pope. Instead, world power is controlled by international corporate monopolies.
ReplyDeleteThe hero, Jonathan, played by James Caan is a world famous hero in the game Rollerball, but the fame and fan adulation he has amassed is seen as a threat to the oligarchs who run the world. So he is being pushed into a retirement he does not want. In a bit of a sub plot, he asks what has happened to the wife he once had, who was taken away by one of the oligarchs, only to find that all records of her existence, much less their marriage, have been deleted by the company in charge of world data storage.
It was an entertaining bit of silliness and escapeism. After all, nothing like that could ever happen in real life.
The important question is not should you move your blog. That is a no brainer. Of course you should.
ReplyDeleteThe important question is, "Move it where?".
I knew Direct TV coming under AT&T's corporate umbrella was going to cancel live broadcast of One America News Network but today I learned ATT U-Verse cancelled OANN as well. So I will meet with the wife and discuss cancelling AT&T U-Verse. If she agrees and I think she will, then we'll save $150/month turn around and subscribe to OANN for $5.99/month! Win Win.
ReplyDeleteThe doors of truth and alternative information appears to be closing in America and with millions of illegal immigrant Demoncrap voters invading US the Fascist Oligarchic Kleptocracy may stay in power. Fun times but they are certainty not boring.
Bondmen@1058:
ReplyDeleteDo you truly believe FUSA will ever see a legitimate election in the future ? Or is your reference to the NOV 22 election just wishful thinking ?
I'd contact Herschel Smith of the Captain's Journal and find out how he publishes. I've not seen his site censored. And here's one of Herschel's great quotes: "The desire to control others is the signal pathology of the wicked." Really applies to this situation, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteAndrew Torba has a free speech haven called GAB... it's less a blog, but it would work as well as or better than g_____
