In Defense Of The Golden Rule

In Defense Of The Golden Rule


Recently I had a rather unpleasant experience with another member of a group I belong(ed) to. It was very disheartening and troubled me more than you might think, because for the first time I felt that the values I've been fighting for are  forcing me, forcing many of us, to rock back on our heels on the defensive, when we've done nothing wrong at all. I was incredulous, and it's made me ponder the very bonds we share as a people.

Here's the short story. I saw a tweet that shared an article, which I thought was a real eye-opener so I Retweeted-with-Comment. I did that a couple of times, as I often do with a tweet that makes me think. I thanked the group member and also WikiLeaks, who it originated from, and included a short snip from the article. That was over two weeks ago.

Then, a couple of days ago, the person who originally shared that article with the whole wide world sent me a DM asking me to delete the tweet. I was shocked and replied with a question as to why, had I done anything wrong? If anything, I had complimented the person for bringing this news to our attention. There wasn't a trace of anything other than courtesy, as I don't even know this person other than her Twitter handle. 

That is the default position. We play by the Golden Rule and thank our colleagues (or comrades if you prefer) when they share something that we find valuable. If there's a particular slant we see differently, that's on us, but it's no detraction from the article or the person sharing it. We don't have to be nice, either, and sometimes we're pretty blunt, but wasn't an issue. We went back and forth, she appeared very disdainful of my tweet that included the article that Wikileaks had initially shared. it was absolutely ludicrous that she was asking me to delete it! Here's one of her replies to me, verbatim from her:

"Whether I brought it everyone attention and re-using the article  including my name in your tweet is two different things, you didn't check with me to see if it OK and I didn't give permission. You already have the article reposted without my name"

To say I was shocked and bewildered is an understatement. I was incredulous. Are we now expected to ask others if we can please retweet the articles they choose to share with all of Twitter?! This wasn't a post from within the group, and from what I understand, that is after all the purpose of half of Twitter. We retweet finds that others choose to share, along with tweeting what we choose to share.

It's true I often Retweet-with-comment several times, on an occasion where an article has made a big impact with me. Again, if anything this is showing support. I was beginning to feel that I was dealing with a 'snowflake' ... someone who couldn't take a compliment.


Apparently, as the encounter became more heated and I insisted on knowing why I should have to delete my tweet simply because she didn't want her Twitter handle in one of my tweets, she hinted at "safety reasons" that might be misinterpreted as "goading the head of a European country" (her quote marks). I asked for clarification; was she actually concerned about "adverse consequences" resulting from her Twitter handle appearing in the same tweet with the Twitter handle of the "head of a European country"!? Unbelievable, because if that was the case, and things have truly come to this, then I would be stunned to my core but would agree to remove the tweet in order to protect her from recrimination. However, I felt the principle is too important to sweep under the carpet if in fact that's the case. Nonetheless, she refused to agree to such a scenario. She wanted me to delete it simply on her say-so. I said bluntly, "it's one or the other though, you can't have it both ways". People, ANY person, patriot or progressive, are not obliged to request permission from someone before we decide to share their tweets; that's nonsense! That's a load of bollocks! (Whoops; is that British word out of bounds now too?) However, despite my enthusiastic embrace of the fight to save Great Britain, as it's only staving off a fight to save my own country, the culture may have already changed so much to such a drastic extent that many otherwise-courageous British patriots are afraid to admit to themselves just how scary the new social media environment is. Was this person truly afraid of having police in the UK come knocking at her door because she happened to share an article Wikileaks was tweeting about? An article I then shared with a thank-you to both of them that also included the Twitter handle of the head of a European country that the article was about?? ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿคจ 

As I understand it, on Twitter, the average person can speak truth to power, so long as they don't stalk them or threaten them with real-world harm. We share opinions, news, recipes, gifs, pics of all types. Sometimes POTUS will share something that I will then share, that someone else will then share and soon dozens of people will be included. Chances are unlikely POTUS ever even sees anyone past his initial tweet.

This is one of the roles that Twitter plays....that of a safety valve in a pressure cooker; the tweet that I stood by, and was asked to leave the group for because I would not simply delete it for the sake of the moderator if no one else, brought attention to the details of who funded a "major European head of state". Big deal. I doubt it very much that s/he or even one of his/her assistants would even read my Tweet, being that only one person replied, simply musing about where Russia was involved in all this. Aside from that single reply, the tweet garnered only 9 engagements and 120 impressions after a full two weeks. Pffft! ๐Ÿ˜œ

Right now the West is on the cusp of a major social explosion, as more and more people rapidly wake up to important Truth they've been lied to about. These days there's so little trust in CNN, the once self-described "Most trusted name in news", that their most watched show is below 35 other RIVAL shows, many of them not even on a News Network. Podcasters like Steven Crowder, Joe Rogan, Tim Pool, Lionel Nation and a multitude of others have much more market influence then the best and most well-paid anchors of CNN, MSNBC, or even the BBC. Without the manufactured outrage against Orange Man, who is Always Bad, and moderate voices who are always called "far-right racists and sexists" if they don't prostrate themselves in humiliating fashion for being male, or Caucasian, or well-educated, etc, then corporate media (aside from Fox, which has ironically been the refuge for many #walkaway Democrats) would have collapsed by now. 

#Brexit is coming, and not far behind that will be #Frexit, as the #YellowVest movement continues it's inexorable pounding of an illegitimate regime in that country. People may wonder why I describe myself as being "temporarily located in UK cyberspace". I'll tell you why, because I found a great community of proud British patriots. Apparently there are enough Brits left with spirit and spunk, enough fight left in 'em to feel they can use our every assistance. I have a feeling that must be similar to what people in Britain and America must've felt in the late 1930s, when the ominous war clouds of an Orwellian totalitarian regime were emanating from the European continent.

The same is true today. It's no understatement to say that Evil has cunningly plotted its return since the end of World War II. Since those bygone war years filled with Hero Machines, with blood, sweat n' tears, the insidious plans of gluttonous elites have had it in for the destruction and replacement of the nuclear family unit, the elimination of the protection of the US Constitution and the liberty it enshrines, and an all-controlling surveillance state that uses mass-media to mold opinion and shape whatever morality the control system deems necessary.

That is what we fight against. The use of the Golden Rule against the hosts in the Western countries that have taken a murderous cancer in, under the slogan "live and let live", is an abomination and this little encounter I had is symptomatic really of that larger fight. When practicing the Golden Rule, we should NEVER have to apologize, and we shouldn't be made to feel bad over following it, though we should always have a thick skin. Anyone that offends the Golden Rule and attempts to misuse it against us should be called out. Not in a shrill and hostile voice, but a voice of transparency. These 'little things' are where the real spiritual battle goes down, and if we don't make the Golden Rule our default position in our interpersonal relationships, the more quarrelsome and divided we will be.

Since reaching out to various members of the group, who I have continue to respect and retweet, who I genuinely like and who's camaraderie I appreciate, I've been welcomed back, at least to a subgroup, at least a group of patriots that are wide awake, but the issue is bigger than simply being a member of a group. Aside from God and of course the Twitter authorities, no-one censors my opinion but myself. I try to do a good job of policing myself, but if you see me doing a poor job of it, at least explain your opinion to me, and don't make me feel bad for doing something right.... Even if I'm not fully successful at it. Finally, whatever you do, always have the courage to stand by what you've said and done. Sharing information with the twittersphere doesn't mean you endorse everything or indeed ANYTHING in it. 

Right now, we have bigger fish to fry. It seems the power elite is bent on destroying such heroes as #TommyRobinson, and other persecuted citizen-journalists and anti-Orwellians like Carl Benjamin/Sargon of Akkad and Count Dankula. Whether you agree with them or not, and I don't agree with everything they say, they should have the right to say it!  They and a small band of British patriots have the potential of upending the British electoral system and forcing the politicians in Westminster to finally respect the Brexit the UK public voted for, and hopefully begin to roll back the insidious globalism that is corrupting the soul of the West.

That's all. 'nough said. Just remember to respect and observe the Golden Rule and have the courage to stand by what you say and do. You don't have control over how others take it, only how you give it.

"A Nation That is Afraid To Let its People Judge the Truth and Falsehood in an Open Market is a Nation That is Afraid Of Its People"

On the 57th birthday of this declaration, we remember JFK


How Politico and Brett Horvath Are Fraudulently Forcing Twitter to Deprive Americans Of Their Free Speech

   
Using the psychological technique of 'projection' to justify censorship of all voices not aligned with the progressive narrative, Brett Horvath has propelled his latest fraud to the forefront of illogic. With the imprimatur of Establishment media giant Politico behind him, his "Guardians.ai" corporate entity has produced a fraudulent study used to force Twitter to remove 200 of the most influential patriot voices on its platform. 

How did things get to the point where calls for censoring different voices are actually being entertained? Not only being considered, but actually clamored for by the 'Left'? (Or what passes for it these days.) It's simple. The Establishment, also known by its trendier name the DeepState, is going through the various stages of panic as the scale of their 2016 defeat continues to reverberate. 

The secret is in the technique, perfected as an art form by the Hillary Clinton campaign, both before and after that election. Whatever crimes they themselves were guilty of, they aggressively accused their opponents of. Being racist, they accused opponent Donald Trump of racism. Having criminally colluded with the Russians on the transfer of American uranium and internet security to oligarchical (as opposed to governmental) Russian interests, they accused opponent Donald Trump of the same, even going so far as to launch an investigation of his campaign by a special counsel within the Department of Justice. Their end goal has been and remains the removal  -- "by any means necessary" -- of Donald Trump as the duly-elected President of the United States. As events will eventually prove, this effort has even gone as far as to employ various elements of the public government in what clearly amounts to treason.



While this scandal in its entirety is both broad and deep, the specific feature under discussion as it relates to censorship involves the case study cited by Politico's reporter Natasha Korecki on Feb 20, 2019 titled


‘Sustained and ongoing’ disinformation assault targets Dem presidential candidates


The headline suggests that there is an organized campaign of some sort, with a nefarious agenda, to "disinform" the public, or at least what is presumed to be a malleable and impressionable segment of it. Immediately we see the projection behind this claim because the only source we have for anything acknowledged to be of a similar nature in the 2017--2018 midterm campaign are the now-verified claims that Democrats created artificial Russian bots used to draw negative attention to Republican senatorial candidate Roy Moore. Furthermore, Clinton campaign accusations that the Trump campaign colluded with Russians against them in 2016 have proven to be unfounded even after more than 2 years of investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller. Additionally, their claims that the Russians interfered with the election by hacking both Clinton campaign emails and DNC emails have also been proven to be unfounded, while evidence mounts that they [Hillary Clinton and Democratic party loyalists] have been behind the assassination of the disaffected Democrat who really was the party behind the leaks (as opposed to "hacks"; certifiable evidence is now in the public record that shows these were definitely not hacks). Furthermore, and we all need to press for an answer here, the stunning revelations rampant throughout those emails have never been adequately addressed by DNC officials, let alone the candidate herself.


The tipping point in this Orwellian dystopia we now seem to be living through has been the exposure of the Jussie Smollett Hate-Crime Hoax, and to a lesser extent it's predecessor, the Covington High School students vs Nathan Philip, the Native American activist. Both were attempts by Democratic operatives to create racial tension and conflict artificially, with corporate cameras standing by to capture the [non-existent] "far-right hatred and violence" the Establishment has desperately been trying to prove, as an excuse to clamp down on the patriot movement that represents an existential threat to them.


The sad truth is that the only groups attempting to sow discord and employing bots to do so via a "disinformation campaign" are groups such as Brett Horvath's Guardians.ai and the embryonic Democratic campaigns of several announced presidential contenders. The list of 200 individuals that have been removed from Twitter after pressure was put on them by citing this fraudulent study are actually organically-driven patriots, ordinary Americans who were not paid to share their opinions but did so freely of their own will, but who's large followings threatened the validity of messages of the large corporate campaigns.


Explosive but thoroughly detailed developments now being revealed by independent researcher Tracy Beanz, who has posted her findings at her Twitter feed @tracybeanz certify that the prime source used by Politico, the case study assembled by CEO Brett Horvath of Guardians.ai is in fact flawed and an outright fraud. The very first claim, that this study followed the search term "voter fraud" and some vaguely sinister campaign centering around that term for 3 years because they are somehow threatening, is faulty by definition. The claims that there is a "sophisticated network" is true; the entities involved are citizen journalists and many have a knack for appearing on video, each being an independent perspective on particular areas of interest. The claim is that there is something new to this, something to fear, and that this network is intentionally selling disinformation in large quantities to innocent and unsuspecting blocks of voters. 

What is actually happening is that this is a fearful reaction to having so many independent thinkers coming to the conclusion that they -- the corporate opinion-molders who are threatened by this 'Great Awakening' -- are worse than simply being wrong; they are attempting to take over control of ANY content being provided - free of charge, governed only by the rights and responsibilities of the US Constitution.


And now they have taken to banking. In recent developments, it appears that Chase Bank is now evicting account-holders supporting President Trump, particularly luminaries in the patriot movement. According to PJ Media, and confirmed by the correspondence, Chase Bank has ejected Laura Loomer, Enrique Tarrio (the Afro-Cuban chairman of the Proud Boys fraternal organization), Joe Biggs (of InfoWars fame), Martina Markota (Lady Alchemy creator, Rebel Media personality and performance artist), and presumably more individuals that haven't the access and attention to the alternative media, are losing access to the banking system that allows them to conduct their life and handle their responsibilities. Think of that. This could happen to you, and all because your electronic trail follows non-conformist political views! As a result of you not believing in late-term abortion, your debit card could be canceled and you couldn't even put gas in your tank despite having title to an amount of money the bank is holding for you (and using for its consolidated balance sheet).


Did that sink in yet? If so, have you thought ahead to realize that we can't do anything physically violent in reaction to this attempt to terminate our voices on social media -- Enrique Tarrio for one has been terminated by not only Chase Bank but Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and a few others including PayPal simply because he holds the power of an organization that was formed to counter the left-wing violence of Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and generally any Trump-hating organization. 

THAT is where we find ourselves, just waiting to fall into the trap these control-freaks have set for us, by warning we will be making explosive claims and demanding action. (We COULD, and by all rights SHOULD, but won't fall for it.)  The Establishment that some call the Deep State, (some drill down to 'cabal') is not only aware of the possible backlash to their agenda, they are using Projection technique to anticipate the most violent reaction that would come had THEY been the ones so victimized. How clever, and yet it reveals the fraud behind their motivation. They're having a VERY hard time of it as they are facing an organic movement that has true resistance. genuine outrage over the massive corruption, the outright theft of elections, and other misdeeds of the cabal that has abused the lives of the silent majority by feeding them false information, protecting the guilty, and on and on it goes. 

Rather than admit to this, they choose one of their leading knights, one of their 'task groups', this time in the form of Politico, the mavens of which then turns their attention downstream to Brett Horvath and his "Guardians.ai" to bring this screed of fear-based 'analysis' to bear in an effort to have our freedom of speech removed from the internet. 

They're doing this under the false guise that this threatening movement must be the result of foreign entities [RUSSIA DID IT!], though they appear to bend over backwards in acknowledging there ARE "independent Americans" in this movement). So after they make this claim, which could in fact result from the natural reaction to being not only lied to but lied about (witness the Jussie Smollett scandal, now a classic example of a hate-crime hoax which is actually committed to fomenting the kind of racial friction they want to proclaim their victimization about). 

The subtext is clear, also: the way to success isn't so much through our individual effort (poor Jussie; he only received $65K per episode when he SHOULD have received $100K...imagine!) but through victimhood. We should be so grateful that the truth was revealed in time, that a major Evil was narrowly averted, and at the same time channel our righteous rage into an avenue where transparency is obligatory and individual rights are respected. 

This is a first for many patriots, who have only started defining themselves as that within the past 3 to 4 years, when the #MAGA movement took hold as the catalyst behind Donald Trump's presidential campaign. We -- the American people who are actively involved in sharing their opinions on these platforms -- have taken it for granted that our interaction on social media is governed in the same way the Constitution has governed so-called 'real life', but recent developments such as this Politico attack and Horvath's white-washing of Establishment fear, which has now resulted in the elimination (the sacrificial sheep) of the "List of 200", and the action taken by Chase Bank to remove conservative account-holders, is alarming and needs to be addressed immediately by the authorities, the "adults in the room". Where are they? Are "they" really *us* and are "we" also "them" somehow? This is an issue it's hard for anyone to be neutral about, though drama fatigue can afflict us on this as well as anything, but this issue may result in some of us losing our rights to speak freely, losing our access to the modern-day public square, losing access to banking.

The 'Interested Few' in the public that have the ability should take to task the following defendants that are attempting to place controls on our free speech: first, Natasha Korecki, the Politico reporter who penned the misleading article titled " ‘Sustained and ongoing’ disinformation assault targets Dem presidential candidates" , and who should be sued for libel while being reminded that WE the People who would be subject to having our internet access limited, have the right to choose for ourselves what sources of information we wish to assimilate to. Next, Brett Horvath, who assembled the misleading 'study' cited by Korecki; he is also guilty of libel as well as insulting the intelligence of the average voter by assuming they don't have the critical thinking skills to separate good news from fake news, which is another example of the paradoxical nature of the claims he makes in his study. 

Most of the non-factual information and data has come from such *certified* news sources as Politico. One good source for the documentation and logic (which relies on basic common sense) is Twitter handle @tracybeanz. Beanz has offered up a detailed analysis that readily shows the fraudulence of the basic claim that the now-terminated individuals were somehow attempting to foment imaginary violence, and just as in the famous Philip K. Dick blockbuster "Minority Report", the leading lights of the Patriot Movement were terminated before they could cause (more) harm. Really. REALLY!! PONDER THIS: TWITTER REMOVED 200 ACCOUNTS BECAUSE OF THIS STUDY.  

Anyone who has too many followers are the REAL threat, but NONE of the first batch of the "List of 200" ever included the term "voter fraud". or the hashtage (#voterfraud), or election fraud and it's hashtag. That clearly puts the Big Lie to Horvath's study, though by the time any reader here can race over there to get a reaction, you can rest assured Mr. Horvath and company (guardians.ai) will have some kind of excuse but the truth is self-evident (save a copy now of the documentation being relied upon). 

Also in the Defendants box: Twitter, the organization overwhelmed by the sheer noise of the Politico/Korecki/Horvath/"guardians.ai" hit piece, the platform we are asking the federal government to regulate as a utility governed by the same First Amendment protections any other utility or interstate communications entity must provide. In Sept. of 2016, Sen. Ted Cruz was grilling Mr. Goran Marby in a Senate hearing entitled "Protecting Internet Freedom: Implications of Ending U.S. Oversight of the Internet", and it was quite apparent Mr. Marby was squirming uncomfortably as the questioning revealed there indeed was, and likely still is, a danger to our Constitutional rights if indeed ICANN transfers control of the internet to the United Nations. It's quite apparent all of these developments show a pattern of attempted control, rather a re-acquisition of control now that it's been shown the 'enemy' isn't so much a foreign government, or terrorists, or pranksters or mere anarchists, but the bulk of the populace, who are awakening at an alarming rate even as these attempts to stifle truth-seeking gain traction amongst media mouthpieces. 

Put simply: the tiny minority that controls 99% of the mass media is now confronting the fact their bamboozling isn't working anymore, and that the People are waking up to how they're being misled.

It can happen to you, it's happening to some already, and someone with the right 'access' needs to sound this alarm. Please help and pass it along.

NEVER FORGET these immortal words of Pres. John F. Kennedy, spoken to the Voice of America on the occasion of its 20th Anniversary, this same day in 1962 - February 26th:


"We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people."
