Tucker Carlson: "Why shouldn't I root for Russia? Which by the way I am." - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 27 Nov '19

27 Nov '19

You can't cuck the Tuck, and he's been questioning the Douma Syria "Assad gassed his own citizens" lie since a day or three after it happened. Tucker is also, rather sanely, asking why we should not root for Russia. The "Western" narrative (read, pro illegal Federal Reserve bank and expansion of our greatest foreign agent narrative) is steadily collapsing folks, and this is a very good thing. Thank you Tucker Carlson. Fox’s Tucker Carlson questions Douma ‘chemical attack proof' and roots for Russia on air. Off with his head, cry MSM https://www.rt.com/usa/474372-tucker-carlson-syria-russia-ukraine/ ... “Because thousands of people are dying on the front lines! You think it’s a joke—” a flustered Goodstein began, before Carlson cut him off with an indignant “Why do I care what’s going on in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia?” ... Nothing quite like a Deep CIA Guardian "journalist" being cut off in the mornin' :D

Entry: Nazi/Illuminati Theory, Source: "Everything Is Under Control: Conspiracies, Cults, and Cover-Ups"
by Ryan Carboni 27 Nov '19

27 Nov '19

In a very intriguing article entitled “The Nazi Religion: Views on Religious Statism in Germany and America,” J.F.C. Moore argues that Nazism and American conservatism are both deeply rooted in the Illuminati conspiracy. According to Moore, (1) Nazism emerged from the Thule Society, a right-wing occult lodge in 1920s Germany, which was influenced by the Illuminati, and (2) Nazism has too many resemblances of right-wing movements in America for the parallels to be coincidental. Basically Moore’s theory holds that ever since the American and French revolutions, certain rightist groups have seen anarchy as the ultimate result of too much democracy and have tried to prevent this by forming secret societies devoted to State-worship and/or Christian Socialism, combined with a Gnostic mystique of receiving guidance from heavenly or otherworldly beings. This guidance produces the state called “Illumination” and causes the initiate to feel a deep need to fight for Good and against Evil; the problem is that Good and Evil are both defined in terms of the ideology of Authoritarianism, with all rebels against “proper authority” defined as devils incarnate. J. Edgar Hoover and Congressman Otto Passman are named as members of such occult lodges. Although Moore’s style is scrupulously academic and imper- sonal, the data of his study is arranged to indicate that most right- wing groups in America, especially those with anti-Illuminati conspiracy theories, are themselves unknowing dupes of the Illu- minati.

ICANN races towards regulatory capture: the great .ORG heist
by grarpamp 26 Nov '19

26 Nov '19

http://blogs.harvard.edu/sj/2019/11/23/a-tale-of-icann-and-regulatory-captu… Internet could have moved root tld functions out to fully distributed coin / DHT / overlay network ages ago. " Ethos Capital, a new commercial investment firm founded in the past few months in Boston, has 2 staff and only one major investment: a deal to acquire the 501c3 non-profit that currently runs the .org domain (valued at a few $B), for an undisclosed sum. This was initiated immediately after ICANN decided in May, over universal opposition, to remove the price cap on .org registrations with no meaningful protections for existing or future registrants. This seems to violate a range of ethical, ICANN, ISOC, and non-profit guidelines. It is certainly the privatisation of a not-for-profit monopoly into a for-profit one, which will benefit a few by inconveniencing millions of others. I have questions: Do affected parties have recourse? Other than polite letters, is anything being done? Why does Vint in particular think this is a good idea… ? Has anyone currently at ICANN + ISOC made substantive comment? For more backstory, read on… A brief history of .org .... "

lists of ingredients of vaccines now banned from Facebook - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 26 Nov '19

26 Nov '19

The Ministry of Truth marches forward: Facebook Bans All Content On Vaccine Awareness, Including Facts About Vaccine Ingredients https://www.zerohedge.com/health/facebook-bans-all-content-vaccine-awarenes… https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-03-08-facebook-bans-all-content-on-vaccine… Just as we warned would happen, the tech giants are now moving aggressively to ban all speech that contradicts whatever “official” position is decided to be “the truth” by the corrupt establishment. This week, Facebook announced it would block all content on Facebook that questions the official dogma on vaccines, which falsely insists that vaccines have never harmed anyone (a hilarious lie), that vaccines contain only safe ingredients (a blatant deception) and that vaccines always work on everyone (another laughable lie). Facebook is achieving this by labeling vaccine awareness information “misinformation” or “hoaxes.” At the top of the list is the assertion that vaccines are linked to autism — something that even the CDC’s own top whistleblower scientist reveals to be true, http://www.vaccines.news/2016-04-29-cdc-whistleblower-we-were-ordered-to-co… yet the vaccine industry claims it’s all a hoax (in order to cover the crimes of medical violence against children that are being committed by the vaccine pushers). Notably, tech giants are now banning vaccine truth information by labeling it “misinformation” in exactly the same way they ban conservative content by labeling it “hate speech.” They simply invent a false category to justify the ban, all while crushing the free speech of users (and ultimately leading to the vaccine maiming of millions of innocent children). Under this twisted system of speech policing, they can ban any content they don’t like by simply labeling it “false” or “hateful,” even if it’s true and important. ...
