This blog came under heavy attack starting in late 2020 (presumably from cultists who objected to my spreading heretical information) and my hosting provider was unable to cope. I now have a new provider, so I restored it from a backup. We’ll see if my new provider can keep a WordPress install secure. Unfortunately the backup was only text, so various media files (such as heretical videos I rescued from YouTube before they could be censored) were lost.

More Censored Videos
YouTube has censored two more videos from Journeyman Pictures’ Perspectives on the Pandemic series. One of them is a more recent interview with Dr. Knut Wittkowski, who was featured in a previous censored video:
The second is an interview with Dr. John Ioannidis, who wrote an article back when the current mass hysteria was just getting started warning against making decisions on unreliable data. In that article he included an estimate of the true danger of COVID-19 based on the experience of the cruise ship Diamond Princess. Although it was, as he acknowledge, a crude estimate based on limited data, his estimate that COVID-19 was around five times less dangerous to five times more dangerous than the average flu season has been born out by a variety of more recent larger studies using antibody testing. Since he was proved right, it’s hardly surprising that our rulers don’t want him heard.

Purging unapproved opinions
Major Internet Platforms Ban Alex Jones. Jones is a noted conspiracy theorist and the founder of the InfoWars website and podcast. In a Monday tweet, he confirmed that Facebook, YouTube, Spotify, and Apple had completely unpublished and/or removed his professional pages and podcasts. [Reason.com]
It’s been well known for a while that those organizations hate anyone who’s not a liberal, and have a long history of censoring opposing viewpoints. It’s unusual for a bunch of them to get together for a coordinated purge like this, though. The most likely reason I’ve seen for it is that there’s a midterm election coming up, and the liberals are afraid of the very large Infowars audience being exposed to unapproved thoughts. For those who want to see what the Thought Police don’t want you to know, see the Infowars channel on BitChute.

Twitter’s new rules supposedly going into effect
The Twitter Rules. You also may not affiliate with organizations that — whether by their own statements or activity both on and off the platform — use or promote violence against civilians to further their causes. We will begin enforcing this rule around affiliation with such organizations on December 18, 2017. [Twitter.com]
Supposedly this new Twitter rule will be going into effect today, with people who violate it having their accounts banned. However, this is obviously not going to happen. If it did, every account associated with any government would be banned, as would anyone affiliated with any government (including employees and businesses that do business with governments). Since this covers not just activity but statements, mainstream media sources such as the New York Times and CNN would also be banned.
But of course this is Twitter, so they’ll actually just be banning people who aren’t sufficiently enthusiastic Social Justice Warriors, because anything that makes a pinko sad is literally violence.
