        Here’s the quote from The American Conservative, a trustworthy source.

        ‘.On the ranking of agencies and programs most reviled by conservatives, just behind the Corporation for Public Broadcasting are the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities. Trump axed federal funding to both entities in his budget proposal, yet the Republican appropriators completely ignored this and funded them anyway.’

    Censorious Swedes – Following Spain To Insanity Fair? 


    Sweden, as we know, is a country plagued by censorship.

    But it’s not just censorship designed to hide the effects of crimmigrant evil from the general populace…

    Lugenpresse = Lying Press = Sweden’s Media Vermin 

    …which we’ve covered before.

    Take a look at this ad, below, in Stockholm, an advertising picture used to illustrate an article in The Leftal, sorry, The Local, last week.

    =

    Stockholm bans sexist advertising in public spaces

    =

    The author, Catherine Edwards by name, doesn’t actually tell us if that particular – and particularly appealing -picture is likely to be outlawed by the nutjobs who run the city.

    But she does tell us that the city fathers (oops, sexist, let’s say city councillors!) of Sweden’s capital have just decreed an act of censorship approved by every party with the exception of the Sweden Democrats.

    https://www.thelocal.se/20180613/stockholm-bans-sexist-advertising-in-public-spaces

    Some pinko Green dork has persuaded his comrades that ads must not be ‘upsetting in any way…’

    That’s deputy mayor Daniel Helldén, who got into full rant-mode about his plan to ‘remove advertising billboards deemed sexist or degrading from public spaces…’

    So no more‘sexist or racist messages and attitudes’ on something like 700 billboards in Stockholm, but thankfully  ‘ those which are not property of the city — such as ads on public transport, run by the regional government — won’t be affected.’

    We have had this kind of PC cr-p in other cities, like London, as reported here.

    Cathy reminds us that there have been other censorship examples, including that ridiculous Paris prohibition on advertisements  ‘deemed homophobic…’

    Many people took exception to an ad that deliberately sought to normalise sexual aberration, like that Lloyds Bank oddity in Britain…

    ….but if that sort of sicko garbage is allowed, why shouldn’t ads suggesting disagreement with perversion also be permitted?

    That was Merry (‘Gay?’) England, but The Local’s little girl (oops, ‘person!’) adds that Berlin may go down the same authoritarian path.

    We have already alerted our readers to German censorship plans…

      I have to tell you at once, your usual statements of opinion do not appeal to me AT ALL!
      However, you have it right his time.

      Why should ads or anything else, excpt toddlers’ bed-time stories, have to be ‘not upsetting in any way?’
      Every day I can see or read or hear things that are upsetting.

      I can ignore upsetting sights by looking the other way,.
      If I hear something that upsets me, I can put on my head phones and listen to jazz.
      If I read something that upsets me, I can stop reading it.
      Unless it’s somebody trying to get crimes committed, like that Fonda, then I can call the police.

      But if something upsets a certain kind of neurotic minority, they want it banned, so the rest of us, who might not be upset, who might be amused, or impressed, or just interested, cannot exercise our own judgment.

    =

    Gambar terkait

    =

    One expects that kind of thing from a Third World despotism like Venezuela or even Socialists in the UK, like the queer Bryant and his comrades.

    Members of Britain’s Parliament are calling for a ban of RT (formerly “Russia Today”) network and website in the United Kingdom following the suspected nerve gas attack of a former Russian spy and his daughter in Salisbury.

    Current and former labor ministers Stephen Doughty and Chris Bryant called on Prime Minister Theresa May to take action against RT, which broadcasts in the United Kingdom under a license with the Office of Communications (Ofcom).

    …or for everyone except those who upset Theresa May?

    ===

    Bryant is of course no friend to democratic principles, if democratic decisions don’t please his prejudices.

    Bermuda Re-Embraces Decency! May’s Minion ‘Disappointed!’ 

    So his censorious shrilling – “Can we just stop ‘Russia Today’ just broadcasting its propaganda in this country?” is no surprise at all.

    His authoritarianism is matched only by his hypocrisy!

    RT, which called itself a pawn in the international incident, streamed a 2014 episode featuring Bryant on the network promoting his book on constitutional reform.

    =

    “Bryant is seemingly happy to appear on RT when it suits his interests,” said the network.

    But will May corral ‘Conservative’ MPs into taking the same stance?

    Very probably, and the theoretically ‘independent’ OfCom is showing its true colours by postponing any steps against RT until she has told them what to think. 

    “We have heard the Prime Minister’s statement in the House of Commons this afternoon and we await her further statement on Wednesday [March 14)]. We will then consider the implications for RT’s broadcast licenses,” said the agency.   https://www.mediaplaynews.com/u-k-politicos-call-for-russia-today-tv-ban/

    Time for a petition, anyone?

    Gaystapoid 'Vue' Makes One Want To Spew! 


    One of our UK readers just sent me this appalling report, about a company named ‘Vue,’ which apparently owns a cinema in London’s Piccadilly.

    =

    Christian group Core Issues Trust hired a screen at Vue Piccadilly, in the West End, to show its film – the Voices of the Silenced.

    But the cinema cancelled the event at the last minute, saying it contradicted the company’s values.

    Protesters accused Vue of censorship. According to the film’s makers, the documentary tells the stories of 15 people “emerging out of homosexual lifestyles”

    Vue’s ‘values?

    I have over recent years spent some time writing about the ridiculous film censorship here in Indonesia…

    …but the self-righteous movie (and TV) censors here can at least defend their bizarre behaviour by saying the law gives them the power to make our viewing choices for us.

    Vue, in contrast, was simply pandering to the intolerance of the gaystapo lobby, which perennially seeks to relegate admirable people who successfully seek cures for sexual maladjustment to the category of ‘non-persons…’

    Gambar terkait

    ….a bit like how the Soviets used to air-brush individuals from photos if they fell out of favour with the marxist in-crowd.

    After all, if homosexuality is not to be cured, then how can cured ‘gays’ exist? Hide their very existence – that’s the gaystapo watchword!

    Curiously, not a single Vue management figure is named in the BBC news report. Only a nameless statement is quoted, making that absurd ‘values’ claim and saying the censorship decision was reached without outside influence.

    So I checked and find that their big boss is, embarrassingly, a Canadian, named Tim Richards!

    But Vue bosses don’t exist in a vacuum, and the ban-fans may well have been anxious about the vicious, vengeful intolerance of the gaystapo.

    It’s an affront to nature and if people want to be cured of that miserable malady, they should have the chance to seek both encouragement and treatment.

    But the militant queers fear that idea.

    “It’s shocking that Vue Piccadilly initially viewed this as a suitable film to screen.”

    And if the forces of decency seek to have a book published, might we expect Nazi-style book-burning?

    Please Take 5 Mins To Show Solidarity With Google’s Victim! 


    You’ll certainly remember the case…

    ….the Google jackboot stomping opinions that those who control their poisoned ‘fount of knowledge’ can’t bear to hear.

    We wrote about it last year.

    Good for Gab! Google’s Witch-Hunt Victim Gets New Job

    /////////

    James Damore, victim of Google witch-hunt!

    =========

    Now here’s a little something you can do to show your solidarity with this good American.

    It takes only a few minutes but you’ll go to bed tonight feeling better for having taken a step to applaud a martyr to a cause all patriots in every land believe in.

    Here’s the background, from David Horowitz, 

    ======

    I’m sure you’ve heard of James Damore by now. He’s the former Google employee that was fired after publishing a “diversity memo,” and he’s suing the company. 

    Well, the facts that have come out since the lawsuit started show it’s a lot worse than any of us thought. 

    According to Damore…

    …Google openly encouraged hiring managers to discriminate against whites, men and conservatives. 

    =

    Hasil gambar untuk google censors
    ……………
    And they booed white people and men at meetings, solely because of their race and gender. 

    …last time I checked, treating people differently because of their skin color or gender was the definition of bigotry…but so far, the Left is getting away with it. 

    I don’t think they should, and I know you don’t either. 

    That’s why I’m asking you to sign this thank you card for James Damore for holding Google accountable. 

    You see, in this day and age, it’s impossible to spread our message or promote our values without a presence online. That’s why I use Front Page Mag, Truth Revolt, and other outlets to expose the Left. 

    But when Google — the company that controls our access to information — is so blatantly biased, it becomes impossible to get the truth out. 

    That’s why James Damore’s lawsuit is so important, and why I’m personally thankful for his bravery. In fact, I honored James Damore at my annual Restoration Weekend in November.

    Now, I’m asking you to honor James by signing this thank you card.

    Please note, the illustrations above are not part of Mr. Horowitz’s appeal, but added by me to enhance the outrage we should be feeling.

    However, no need to add further pictorial embellishments.

    As he quite correctly concludes –

    this isn’t just about Google.

    It’s about the future of free speech and the open exchange of ideas — which is why this is one of the most crucial cases of our time. 

    If Google is not held accountable, no one will be.

    So please join me in thanking Damore for his courage, and add your signature to this thank you card.

    =========

    I’m signing that message of goodwill right now.

    NOT just because of what the Damore case reveals, but as a protest against the way Google has and is abusing its power…

    Circumvent Google Gag Order! ‘Russia Today’ OK! 

    …as we’ve reported!

    Please take five, and…

    SEND THEM A MESSAGE!

    However, in view of their appeal  – that we make people aware of their petition –  I checked them out. 

    THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM  AT ALL!

    They make videos to educate millennials and Lord Knows, that’s something that’s badly needed!

    See for yourselves, and read this Wall Street Journal article, of which I offer a part here…

    ooooooooooooooo

    Tech giants like Google and Facebook always deny that their platforms favor some viewpoints over others, but then they don’t do much to avoid looking censorious. This week a conservative radio host and author is wondering why YouTube classifies his educational web clips as “potentially objectionable” material.

    Warning: This Article Is Educational – WSJ

     

    This is the message YouTube DOESN’T want you to read. That’s because YouTube, the world’s number one video sharing site, doesn’t like conservatives or conservative ideas.

    In fact, YouTube has gone out of its way to block conservative ideas from those who need them the most: university students, parents and people seeking to educate themselves in public spaces.

    Recently, YouTube “restricted” a number of informational videos produced by PragerU, a non-profit conservative educational organization, which aims to spread awareness of pro-American ideas, history, capitalism, and conservative values.

    You can fight back!

    By placing PragerU’s educational videos on YouTube’s “restricted list”, YouTube has made it impossible for people to access them in public places. According to the YouTube guideline for restricted videos, the PragerU videos that YouTube has restricted have “potentially objectionable” and “potentially inappropriate” content.

    Let’s be clear: these videos are not restricted for anything violent or racy. On the contrary, PragerU’s five-minute, animated videos are uncommonly wholesome. These videos are restricted because, simply stated, YouTube objects to their ideas – conservative ideas.

    We need your help to tell YouTube that their restriction of PragerU videos is wrong. Add your name to our petition, and join the thousands of Americans who value the free exchange of ideas.

    We’re confident that our principles – American principles – can withstand open discussion and rigorous scrutiny. It’s telling that our adversaries don’t feel the same way about their own.

    Sincerely,
    PragerU

    If internet users issue threats of violence, then there’s a case for police action, though when some commie and/or queer urged me to ‘die,’ a year or so back, I just dismissed it for what it was…

    …a gutless little creep.

    So are they going to hunt down every fanatic who endorses shariah online?

    Or are they simply encouraging whiners to seek police assistance in stomping critics of the nauseating state ideology of the afore-mentioned Theresa’s Septic Isle, about which a good article appeared this week.

    However, I leave the last word to National Review’s Katherine Timpf –

    …what is or is not “offensive” is an entirely subjective matter; something that one person finds offensive, another person might find funny, or even virtuous.

    Jakarta Blackout? Top Cop Wants NO News Of ISIS ‘Pranks!’ 


    National Police chief Gen. Tito Karnavian has called on the public not to overreact to this week’s incident involving an Islamic State flag tied to a fence at the Kebayoran Lama Police station in South Jakarta.http://jakartaglobe.id/news/national-police-chief-calls-for-calm-after-s-jakarta-islamic-state-flag-incident/

    But while there’s a mention of a message attached to the flag, for details of that we need to look elsewhere.

    …the letter also threatened to turn Jakarta into a warzone like Marawi in the Philippines…

     http://m.todayonline.com/world/asia/jakarta-police-find-flag-and-letter-threatening-turn-city-warzone

    Not exactly the first time such warnings from the ISIS rape-gang have been heard here, as we reported quite some time ago.

    Satanic ISIS Threaten Indonesia Blood-Bath! 

    General Tito says what’s just happened may be a ‘prank’ and maybe so.

    But he has not so long ago displayed a laid-back attitude to fanatic gangs…

    Video Viral, Tito KarnavianFPIOrmas Islam yang Sangat Toleran

    It was so depressing when we read those words of his, regarding the notorious vigilante gang as a –

    ‘VERY TOLERANT MUSLIM COMMUNITY ORGANISATION.’

    National Police Chief Tito Karnavian

    == 

    Tito Karnavian declared that FPI is a community organization that is tolerant.

    According to Tito, their activities like that he attended will get rid of the ugly stigma of the FPI as “radical and militant synonymous with violence and intolerance.”

    Karnavian added that this stigma is maybe applied as a label by the mass media and then influences the public….

    In the light of those comments we reported a couple of months ago, his concerns about public reaction to media telling it like it is about the “TOLERANT” FPI…

    ….

    …….

    …what are we to make of his plan to conceal sectarian incidents, like this week’s, from the people of Jakarta, indeed from all Indonesians?

     The police’s public relations unit has orders not to report similar incidents to prevent a public outcry.

    Would a public outcry against the Islamist danger be such a bad thing?

    Jakarta’s Governor seems readier to trust the people to show sense. Jakarta Governor urges public to be vigiliant (vigilant, actually, but skip the spelling error! )

    Yet a shutdown on news is precisely what Tito appears to have in mind. “I have also instructed my personnel, not to reveal such incidents to the media….” Tito said.

    Maybe he has worries about how much of the media here behaves.

    Indonesian Media – Islamist Bias Still Shining Through!

    Jakarta Post – A Nelson’s Eye View Of ‘Pluralism!’ 


    And off we go again, the Jakarta Post’s ever-anonymous editorial staff purporting to be concerned about pluralism.

    =

    =

    Quite rightly, they recognise that, with three police officers having been murdered by Islamist swine at Kampung Melayu this week…

    …all law enforcement efforts against jihadist evil deserve our whole-hearted support.

    But what are we to make of this, that the sectarian terrorists have sent a stark warning not only to the security authorities, but also to religiously pluralistic Indonesia.

    WHEN will the Jakarta Post editors come out and tell the truth about Gramedia, the company that owns the JP, and that itself declared war on religiously pluralistic Indonesia…

    http://www.thejakartapost.com/academia/2017/05/26/editorial-clear-and-present-danger.html

    ====

    when it collaborated with the most bigoted sectarians in the archipelago in a Nazi-style book-burning, which has yet to merit a JP editorial condemnation.

    If a business engaged in canning vegetables or the manufacture of make-up had committed this sin against freedom, bad enough!

    But a publisher?

    Shameful!

    Until Gramedia offers a public apology and puts that book back on their shelves, for sale to all, we need constantly to remind the world of the evil that was done that day.

    The Jakarta Post should be at the forefront of demands for this repentance.

    We await, ever hopeful..well, not very, to be frank!

      Good on you, Ross.
      One of these days maybe Gramedia will grow a conscience, and the Jakarta Post grow a set .big enough to criticise their bosses.

    Hurray, Helvetia – Swiss OK With Insults To Erdogan! 


    Just got back from a walkabout, feeling slightly sorry for President Donald Trump, who is having to spend a great deal of time in the undoubtedly disagreeable company of the Bitch of Berlin this weekend.

    I wonder if she’ll lecture him on his legal ‘obligation’ to import crimmigrants, after her own irresponsible admission of around a million with no regard for German visa regulations.  New Book Exposes Merkel As More Coward Than Traitor!  

    On another ‘enemy alien’ issue, given Americans’ constitutional right to free speech,  one hopes she won’t seek to persuade him to follow her craven example on censorship.  

    Zoology Shocker- A Bitch Can Get Lower Than A Snake’s Belly! 

    And THAT leads me onto today’s ‘reasons to be cheerful’ headline….

    stamp-collectors will know that ‘Helvetia’ is the agreed name of multilingual Switzerland

    ——–

    how the relatively small Swiss Confederation has been showing so much more true grit than the forsworn leader of their mighty German neighbour!

     The Swiss justice office has refused four requests by Turkey for judicial cooperation over comments posted on social media platforms about President Recep Tayyip Erdogan that he deemed offensive.    

    https://www.thelocal.ch/20170317/free-speech-justifies-insults-about-turkish-president-says-switzerland

    Most of us are sick and tired of the intolerant whining of one ignorant Islamist after another about how ‘offended’ they get when civilised people write or draw or say things that aren’t permissible under their backward codes.

    oooooooooooooooooooooooo

    • Sure, they can belly-ache as much as they like, but when they set out to intimidate, they need to be slapped down HARD!
    • ======
    • No doubt you were no more aware than I was that the sectarian regime in Ankara has been demanding that Switzerland pursue critics who had ‘insulted’ Erdogan.
    • Heck, that man deserves a lot more four little insults – I’m sure our modest blog has long since passed that total!
    • But whatever – the Head of Information at the Swiss Justice Office, Folco Galli, neatly put the Turks in their place, saying that Switzerland would only be obliged to cooperate if the act concerned was considered a crime in both Turkey and Switzerland!
    Hasil gambar untuk folco Galli
    Eminently fair comment, and better still that Signor Galli spelt out the difference between what happens in European democracies and wannabe caliphates.
     “If similar criticisms had been expressed in Switzerland against a federal councillor in the course of a political debate, they would of course have been tolerated as an expression of free speech.”
     
    Of course Erdogan is upset.

    The viper can dish it out – as when he called the Dutch of being ‘Nazis’ last week.

    Turkey Sat Out WW2, Now Slanders Dutch Who Fought! 

    But he cannot take it, which is why he’s used what passes for ‘law’ in Turkey against some 2,000 people for supposedly insulting Erdogan through words or cartoons
     
    And please note, it’s not just insults which the Ankara Ass seeks to suppress in other countries’ media. 
    ……..
    ‘Don’t you DARE insult me!’
    ….. 
    When Blick published an opinion piece urging Turks to vote NO in Erdolf’s forthcoming referendum, Turkish authorities said the article was “offensive” towards Erdogan and called for Blick to “make amends for the lack of respect shown to our president.”
    AMENDS?
    ……….
    Here’s the proper response to such arrogance –

      Very good that Switzerland is not surrendering to Erdogan. He needs many insults.
      Very good also that the Swiss are shaming Merkel who always goes down on her knees when the Turks start ranting. You make the very relevant point about that comedian she allowed to be put on trial for his funny story about Erdogan sex and animals.
      What a terrible leader she is.

      Let all of us think of new insults for Erdogan and Merkel tomorrow on our rest day.
