New Report Shows Almost ALL Colleges Restrict Free Speech Dec 27, 2018

Show notes

New Report Shows Almost ALL Colleges Restrict Free Speech. The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education issued a report recently showing that 9 out of 10 colleges are restricting speech to some degree. While the trope tends to be that the far left and social justice activists are the ones causing this problem, often they are victims of these policies as well. A story from Vox showed that of faculty who were fired from a College for speech it was mostly liberal identified staff. Why then does mainstream media and the left claim there is no free speech crisis? Well for one whether there is or is not a crisis is an opinion, but it is likely just tribal. Conservatives have been complaining over restrictions on speaking events and it would seem like the left wants to deny them this claim. But in the long run, the defense of speech may actually benefit the right.

Far Left Media Is Dying Because Gen-Z Is Too Conservative Dec 26, 2018

Show notes

Far Left Media Is Dying Because Gen-Z Is Too Conservative. Study after study shows the trend, generation z is becoming conservative and mostly resembles libertarians or moderate Republicans. This is a dramatic shift from Millennials who are overwhelmingly progressive. What happens then is that these companies cannot grow or attract new readers because young people do not want far left media. The outcome is obvious, these companies are laying people off and collapsing. While social justice is something most people agree with, the regressive left is too authoritarian and off putting.

Patreon News Gets Worse, User's Payout FROZEN Without Notice Dec 25, 2018

Show notes

Patreon News Keeps Getting Worse, User's Money FROZEN for 'suspicious activity" Following news about a user having his account suspended "in secret" a story in the New York Times emerged with statements from Jack Conte and their head of Trust and Safety. The statements seem to be directly antagonistic toward the community, specifically Sword and Scale, Dave Rubin, Me, and Sargon of Akkad. They imply that Sargon broke the rules on their platform and Conte implies many of us are simply trying to generate support for a cause of some sort. But all this is only made worse by the original story of a man who had his patreon account suspended without notice. He only found out because patreon had not paid him in about a month.

Russian Bot Narrative Completely EXPOSED As Fake News?? Dec 24, 2018

Show notes

Evidence Suggests Massive Smear Against Republicans EXPOSED after new evidence as come to light. The New York Times previously reported that Democratic operatives engaged in a false flag to smear Roy Moore in the Alabama Senate race. Initially the Chief executive of the company in question said "it doesn't ring a bell" but later claimed it was just a research project. But in a past tweet he directly pushed the false flag narrative using his "russian bot dashboard" as evidence. If this has been outed as a smear on republicans then what about every other story which cites the Russian bot dashboard as evidence? At the very least ALL of these stories are now questionable and at worst completely fake news and propaganda. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJYkk6xiywE&list=PLxQaod7tWvYLFIEhZprOB5YddTOrZSg1z

Thank You Patreon For Destroying My Income -$5,219.75 Dec 23, 2018

Show notes

Patreon's Actions have led to my income falling over $5,000 per month and they know it. Banning Sargon was a push on the line, action against the center. They stated that certain people don't want to be associated with "free speech" but they leave up much worse offenders. This means that they are siding with regressive social justice activists who just don't like Sargon. In doing so they have damaged ALL of our incomes. After many people moved to Subscribe Star I was actually doing better. But with far left activists getting them shut down my subscriber income is now in question.

Democrats CAUGHT In Russian Bot "False Flag" Smear Campaign Dec 22, 2018

Show notes

Democrats CAUGHT In Russian Bot "False Flag" Smear Campaign in the Alabama special election. A group called new Knowledge is claiming that the admitted false flag against Republicans was just a small experiment. They were responsible for a mas amount of presumably Russian bots following the Roy Moore campaign on Twitter to trick people into thinking the Russians were propping him up. National media fell for the ruse and the narrative went viral. Left wing writers mocked the Moore campaign for suggesting this was a democratic ploy to smear him. We now know it was. They can claim it was an experiment but this reeks of democratic operatives serving engaging in a political con job and may have actually swung an election. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZsxSVycCwU&index=2&list=PLxQaod7tWvYLNmno21esPdhZknpqmh0H0&t=0s

Tucker Boycott, Sargon Ban Prove Social Justice Is Just A Cover Dec 21, 2018

Show notes

Tucker Boycott, Sargon Ban Prove Social Justice Is Just A Cover and that Activists don't really care. Nate Silver came to the defense of Tucker and social justice activists accused him of just being a white male and not understanding marginalization, except he does as an LGTB Jewish man. These far left activists don't actually care about these causes as evidenced by the Tucker boycott or with Patreon defending the right over Sargon. It shows that this is a tribal action not a political one, that these social justice and feminist activists just want to "win" against their perceived opponents.

Patreon May Have Violated Anti Trust Laws In Sargon Debacle Dec 20, 2018

Show notes

Patreon May Have Violated Anti Trust Laws In Sargon Debacle. YoutuberLaw and I discuss the issue of Anti Trust laws and whether or not there was collusion to shut down competition following the ban of Sargon Of Akkad, aka Carl Benjamin. There doesn't seem to be a reason for payment processors to shut down a deal with a Patreon competitor other than to protect Patreon from the damage it caused itself. Youtube Law is a tech lawyer who weighs in on the issue. Perhaps its an issue of social justice activists targeting Sargon but it could also be a greater attempt to stifle competition to their platform.

Activists Target Top Patreon Accounts, Proving Hypocrisy Over Sargon Ban Dec 19, 2018

Show notes

Activists Target Top Patreon Accounts, Proving Hypocrisy. A few top podcasts have histories of breaking Patreon's rules and some activists have begun to highlight these channels. One thread on reddit was recently removed as it provided proof of a top Patreon podcast overtly breaking the rules. This has created an interesting problem as people in favor of free speech won't resort to the same tactics employed by those seeking to deplatform people. Patreon has made itself a battlefield in the culture war by entering the fight but the left and social justice activists have no sympathy for Patreon. Some on the left have already been highlighting podcasts that break the rules. The Number 5 largest account has recently joined in to support Dave Rubin, Jordan Peterson, over the banning of Sargon of Akkad, aka Carl Benjamin. Could this start a cascade that ends with Patreon facing its end?

Activists Are Targeting Tucker Carlson, Show Losing Sponsors Dec 18, 2018

Show notes

Activists Are Targeting Tucker Carlson, Show Losing Sponsors. Following statements made by Tucker Carlson about immigration and the migrant caravan social justice activists began sending letters and complaints to companies running ads on his program. Several sponsors have pulled out of the show so far. The primary criticism started after Carlson questioned diversity on a program in September and it would seem far left activists have maintained the campaign against his show. Fox News and Carlson have refused to back down and issued a lengthy statement about defending their free speech from left wing activists.
