truepositive Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I really wish one of the alternatives would bring their UI up to scratch, because i have issues with literally all of them. Too many gimmicks and windows within windows, general inconveniences. If anyone is listening that works on this type of stuff; how come a 'social' movie website has the best ordering systems on the internet currently? Just a random page to illustrate: https://letterboxd.com/pondragon/films/ - Please ignore the actual content, my point is about the sorting/ ordering options at the top right. the Bewbtube has newest/ oldest and best/ 'worst' (no thumbs basically), its utter crap. Letterboxd ordering is so far ahead of all the other garbage its not even remotely a contest, and it should be implemented everywhere, yet i dont see it. Does no one give a shit about these disfunctional juvenile systems or is it deliberate omission? Probably both.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legion Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 (edited) Freedom of Speech and Graham Phillips (Ukraine War Reporting) https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2022/08/freedom-of-speech-and-graham-phillips/ The imposition of sanctions against British citizen and journalist Graham Phillips is an appalling violation of freedom of speech – which to have meaning must mean freedom to say things which disagree with the government, the media and/or majority public opinion. Phillips has for almost a decade published and broadcast from Ukraine material which is openly supportive of the pro-Russian section of the Ukrainian population. He has operated from first Kyiv, then Odessa, then the Donbass. Phillips was sceptical of the Maidan protests and the popular revolution narrative. He subsequently for years covered much that the Western elites do not wish people to know – the shelling of civilian areas held by Russian separatists, the Nazi links of some Ukrainian military and politicians, the discrimination against Russian speakers and banning of Russian media and education. All that is one side of the story in Ukraine, and the side that western governments and media are extremely keen you no longer can see. The information Phillips was providing was not in general untrue. The facts were selective and the interpretation partial, but that is also absolutely true of the western propaganda to which we are continually subjected. In some incidents in the current war, it is impossible at a distance to be certain who was responsible for various acts. I see no reason in general to believe the BBC over Graham Phillips, or Graham Phillips over the BBC. It is good to have different sources. Phillips has been criticised for broadcasting an interview with British prisoner Aiden Aslin, held by Russian separatist forces. The criticism is broadly correct. As I pointed out on twitter in the early days of this war, it is contrary to the Geneva Convention to make public display of prisoners. This law was broken repeatedly by the Ukrainian side, with blanket footage of Russian soldiers phoning their mothers. Not one (except me) of those complaining about the Aslin interview complained about those. There are mitigating factors for Phillips – the interview was apparently Aslin’s initiative and he appeared pleased to give it. It was however still wrong. It is a good law – you never know what coercion or violence is applied to POW’s off-screen. Personally there is much in Phillips’ line on Ukraine that I do not agree with. It is plain to me that broadly, the majority of the people of Ukraine genuinely wished in 2014 to move towards the EU rather than Russia, and dramatic efforts by Putin to reverse that process backfired. But because I disagree does not mean Phillips should not be allowed to put across his view. It is also plain to me that Phillips was correct that the rights of the pro-Russian minority have indeed been trampled by ultra-nationalist Ukrainian forces, and Ukraine is a desperately corrupt and dysfunctional country. The current proxy war is a disaster. It is not only killing tens of thousands in Ukraine, it is producing economic consequences that seriously damage the poor worldwide. The delight of politicians, the military and the arms industry is evident – and that is true of both Russia and the West. When wars happen, the bad people on all sides profit from them. The people suffer. So I do not agree with Phillips’ cheerleading for the Russian “side” in this disastrous war. The answer to war is not to take a side but peace, and that is desperately needed. The war will end with Ukraine ceding Crimea to Russia and perhaps more territory. Had Zelensky negotiated before the war started, Crimea plus the Minsk Agreements would have been enough. The Ukrainian negotiating position radically worsens daily. NATO is cheerfully sending Ukraine to disaster. The Russian invasion was illegal; the response now is immoral. The terms of the eventual settlement are obvious. Let it be reached now, without more pointless death. But for Phillips, a British citizen, to be severely legally punished for publishing opinions about a war in which his own state is not a party – nor, it is important to state, in formal alliance with any party – is entirely without precedent. If we accept that Phillips supports the Russian side in the war, why should it be illegal to do that? How does this principle play out? Am I to be sanctioned for supporting the Palestinians? What about those who uphold the rights of the Houthis against the Saudi death grip? What about american journalists who opposed the Vietnam War? Or the British journalists who stood up against the attack on Egypt in the Suez Crisis? What of campaigners against the Iraq War? When you think it through, the implications of this action against Phillips are simply appalling. The sanctions against Phillips are serious. A British citizen has had his property seized by the state, his assets and bank accounts frozen, his ability to earn a living crashed by the blocking of funding mechanisms. All this for publishing opinions on a foreign war contrary to those of the British government. This is a truly frightening attack on freedom of speech, whether or not you agree with Phillips’ views.

He didn't say anything about being anti white, not sure how anyone deduced that from that clip. Nor do I know why its posted on the digital book burning thread Sounds like an interesting book with some interesting questions raised. How would we react if we suddenly woke up a different colour? How would those around us act? Would it change us? These are the points, not what colour we were to begin with. Maybe its a lesson in understanding, or walking in another mans shoes, literally. It reminds me of those people who wake up with a completely different accent. How would that change you? If we don't explore these things then how do we move forward? Should we censor ourselves instead? Save the overlords a job? If people spent more time connecting with each other and put down their pitchforks of pretend offence and fighting over stupid labels pasted on to us by the overlords, perhaps, we could be more useful to each other as humans. We all need to check in with our predudices once in a while and figure out how we can do better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitochondrial Eve Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Ironically the Free Speech Union, founded by Toby Young, has been demonitised by Paypal along with the Daily Sceptic. Young's personal Paypal account has been shut down too and he has vowed to take action to try and get the law changed so that deplatforming cannot take place simply because of political views. https://lauradodsworth.substack.com/p/paypal-censors-free-speech-union Paypal have not specified why they have taken this action. Quote So PayPal really can’t make up its mind as to what the Daily Sceptic has done wrong. I suspect it’s because it often publishes sceptical pieces about the five sacred nostrums you’re not allowed to dissent from: the view that sex, like gender, is a social construct and therefore not binary and immutable; that the lockdown policy and associated Covid restrictions were a prudent response to the pandemic; the mRNA vaccines are safe and efficacious; we’re in the midst of a ‘climate emergency’ and the only solution is to achieve ‘net zero’ by 2050 (preferably earlier); and the West should continue to supply arms and aid to Ukraine. Anyone challenging those holy precepts is at risk of being cancelled, although demonetising an organisation that simply defends people’s right to challenge those shibboleths is a new low.

Anti Facts Sir Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Sharon Davies, the ex-Olympic swimmer, has also had her Paypal account terminated, presumably for daring to speak out about "trans" women (ie men identifying as female) competing with biological women.

Grumpy Owl Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 RichPlanet TV's channel has been removed by YouTube. Richard D Hall was contacted by the BBC's Marianna Spring in August in relation to the Panorama documentary "Disaster Trolls", and in his latest show of the same name, he states that the channel was closed by YouTube after he refused to be interviewed by or co-operate with the BBC. Coincidence? Latest show can be viewed here: https://www.richplanet.net/richp_genre.php?ref=301&part=1&gen=99 Quote In August 2022, over 2 years after publishing my book and film, I was emailed by BBC reporter Marianna Spring who said she wanted to interview me to find out more about me, my career and my online profile. I have included all of those emails below. In the emails I state clearly that I do not wish to be interviewed by the BBC, and state clearly the reasons why I did not want to be interviewed. I know people who have been mislead by the BBC and mis-represented in previous BBC productions, therefore I do not trust the BBC. Then on 30th September 2022, I received a letter from the BBC which I have reproduced below (scroll down).
