Bold Resistance at Meta Regarding Tampons

As in the White House, so in Silicon Valley; in response to widespread public disgust, leadership is beginning to turn against moonbattery — even at Facebook.

Via WokeSpy:

Shortly after Trump’s victory, Zuckerberg announced various policy changes, including the restoration of freedom of speech, allowing users to freely discuss gender identity issues without violating the platform’s “Hateful Conduct” policy.

As part of Meta’s dewokification, tampons were removed from men’s restrooms.

At least in the short term, there will be resistance not only from the woke apparatchiks comprising the Deep State but from their Big Tech equivalents:

According to the New York Times, those employees started bringing their own tampons and restocking men’s bathrooms with the female sanitary products. “Quietly but unmistakably, the tampons, liners and pads reappeared in many of the men’s bathrooms at Meta’s offices,” the NYT reported, describing their return as a “quiet rebellion that Silicon Valley workers have staged as they grapple with the rightward shift of their bosses.”

Meta moonbats have circulated a petition to restore tampons to the men’s room. Having something important to stand for gives wokesters their sense of personal worth.

Zuckerberg and the Turning Tide

Has Mark Zuckerberg switched teams? Meta is dumping not only fact-checkers fact-suppressors in favor of free speech but also DEI in favor of merit. Zuck complains to Joe Rogan about “brutal” bureaucrats from the Biden Regime forcing him to censor. As if to stick liberals in the eye, the company is even taking tampons out of the men’s room:

Red pills don’t hurt the bottom line:

Maybe Zuck has personally had enough moonbattery. Maybe this is a passing phase. Or maybe the tide has turned.

Moonbats Panic Over Free Speech at Meta

The situation has changed since Facebook suppressed the Hunter laptop bombshell so as to help Joe Biden to power. Suggesting that Mark Zuckerberg may have been red-pilled, Meta will no longer permit left-wing information gatekeepers calling themselves “fact-checkers” to censor social media:

Zuckerberg said that Meta would no longer work with independent fact-checkers, end restrictions on topics like gender and immigration, and scale back filters that censored people for innocuous posts. Zuckerberg said that Meta would focus on ensuring free expression, saying that the recent election seemed like a “cultural tipping point.”

Censorship by “fact-checkers” will be replaced by a freedom-friendly system similar to what we see on liberal bête noire Elon Musk’s X.

He added that fact-checkers had become politically biased and untrustworthy.

A few months ago, making that obvious observation could get you canceled by the liberal establishment. Zuck doesn’t seem worried. This contrasts with panic by diehard moonbats:

Meta’s fact-checking partners claim they were “blindsided” by the company’s decision to abandon third-party fact-checking on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads in favor of a Community Notes model, and some say they are now scrambling to figure out if they can survive the hole this leaves in their funding.

Paging George Soros…

MSNBC propagandist Joy Reid is taking this particularly hard:

To answer Joyless’s question, the motivation is to allow the free exchange of ideas — even ideas deemed impermissible by moonbats.

Liberals know that their ideology cannot withstand open and honest debate. That’s why they rely on bullying tactics and censorship.

Google Ad Is Belligerently Woke

In the olden days, advertising attempted to generate a positive attitude toward the product or service being advertised, so as to increase the customer base. Then political correctness got out of control. Now, the purpose is often to make potential customers gag with revulsion by ramming wokeness down their throats. As usual, Google is at the forefront of corporate moonbattery:

The tech giant produced a Christmas ad for its shopping aggregator featuring self proclaimed ‘nonbinary’ TikTok influencer Cyrus Veyssi prancing around in women’s clothing, mincing on about skin creams.

See if you can get through 24 seconds of it:

Evidently Google isn’t worried about losing customers, due to the effective monopoly position that makes the odious company virtually impossible to avoid. This would beg the question, why bother to advertise — if we didn’t know that the entire objective is to subject us to moonbattery.

Libs of Bluesky

Moonbats who shun X because they don’t like free speech or Elon Musk have taken refuge at the latest woke alternative, Bluesky. Before creeping off to a “facility,” Meathead griped that even Bluesky allows “MAGA scum” to “spread their lies.” But at least it provides liberals with an alternate world where they constitute the majority.

As noted at Daily Caller,

Several bigger accounts, including Democrat New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, actors Mark Hamill and George Takei and The New York Times, have also joined the new platform.

First there was Libs of TikTok; now we also have Libs of Bluesky to document what wokesters say when talking among themselves.

Horrifyingly yet unsurprisingly, Blueskiers promote pedophilia by providing it a protective cloak of “nuance” and calling for destigmatization:

AOC isn’t the only Blueskier who wants men in the ladies’ restroom. One even demands urinals, though this might be parody. With moonbats, who can tell?

Like MSNBC, some Blueskiers are not happy that illegal alien Jose Ibarra will actually receive some punishment for killing Laken Riley — even though progressive Democrat District Attorney Deborah Gonzalez spared him from the death sentence he richly deserves.

Consistent with Biden Administration policy, Blueskiers appear to want nuclear war with Russia, presumably over the local conflict with Ukraine that does not concern us.

One last look into the world of Bluesky:

You see what countermoonbats are up against.

Globalist Attack on American Free Speech

Elections make it more difficult for Democrats to throttle Americans’ free speech directly. So they hand over control to sinister globalist organizations like the United Nations and the World Economic Forum.

From the Gatestone Institute:

On September 22, unnoticed by most Americans, the Biden-Harris administration adopted the United Nations Pact for the Future to transform global governance, which introduces the foundations of a world government. There was no debate, no media coverage, no press releases, and no interviews about the Biden-Harris administration’s surrender of United States sovereignty to the UN. …

To ensure that all present and future UN and WEF agendas can pass without bothering with pesky dissenting opinions, the UN member states also passed the Digital Global Compact as an annex to the Pact. The Compact is a new totalitarian tool of censorship meant to silence anyone who disagrees with the globalist agenda. Buried near the end of the Digital Global Compact, in paragraph 30, is the only thing you need to know about it:

“We must urgently counter and address… all forms of hate speech and discrimination, misinformation and disinformation… We will establish and maintain robust risk mitigation and redress measures…

Hate speech, misinformation, and disinformation are all euphemisms for speech leftists wish to suppress.

The moonbats at Google — who exert an alarming degree of control over the Internet — are on board with globalist censorship:

In 2021-22, the UN entered into a partnership with Google to ensure that the search engine only display information reflecting UN perspectives.

To see how this has paid off for globalists, try searching on “climate change”:

In the first twenty-plus pages of results that come up on Google, not a single of them deviates from the UN/WEF narrative, with most results only containing links to UN bodies or other institutions that partner with the UN, such as the EU, the World Bank, government websites and a few climate-alarmist articles from the Guardian, the New York Times, AP and Reuters.

Suppressing dissenting opinion regarding the global warming hoax is crucial because climate hysteria is to serve as a Trojan horse for international collectivism, whereby Americans are effectively enslaved to Third World tyrants.

Fortunately, Trump promises to push back hard against the leftist campaign to smother free speech:

Continued Election Interference From Google

Given that the Democratic Party represents a degenerate authoritarian elite that is antithetical to the American people, how could it run as conspicuously awful a candidate as Kamala Harris and conceivably win? Democrats own the media is one reason. They own big tech is another.

Media Research Center reports:

On Oct. 8, MRC researchers once again used AllSides “right” and “left” bias classifications and found that Google search results for “kamala harris presidential race 2024” and “donald trump presidential race 2024” were stuffed with leftist, legacy media sources. The results featured outlets like CNN and The New York Times as well as publications of leftist billionaires like Jeff Bezos’s The Washington Post and Marc Benioff’s Time. When searching for the aforementioned Harris search prompt, researchers did not find any U.S.-based media outlets that AllSides rates as “lean-right” or “right” until Fox News appeared as the first result on page 11 of Google search results. Likewise, Google buried the first U.S.-based “lean right” or “right” result for the aforementioned Trump prompt as the sixth result on the 23rd page, as Google featured a Fox News video in this spot.

Although one “lean right” video appeared in the search results for the Trump prompt, Google outrageously did not display a single “right” or “lean right” news article from a U.S.-based source anywhere in the tech giant’s search results, which ran out after 26 pages.

Google has engaged in election interference since at least 2008. Another recent example:

Google buried Trump’s campaign website so far down that it did not appear on the first page of results during the Republican National Convention and ahead of the July presidential debate between Trump and Biden.

No doubt Google has other means of manipulating opinion that are less ham-fisted.

An increasing number of Americans get their news via search engines, a market Google has cornered.

To run against the Democratic Party is to run against Google, which lays a heavy thumb on the scale.

Larry Ellison Envisions Absolute Surveillance State

For an idea of how scary the near future will get if Big Government is not reined in, look to Big Tech:

Business Insider reports that during a recent Oracle meeting with financial analysts, [cofounder] Larry Ellison shared his thoughts on the future of AI-powered surveillance tools, painting a picture of a world where constant monitoring and reporting of citizens’ actions become the norm. Ellison, who ranks as the world’s sixth-richest man with a net worth of $157 billion according to Bloomberg, envisions a future where AI will be used to analyze data from various surveillance systems, including security cameras, police body cameras, doorbell cameras, and vehicle dashboard cameras similar to China’s social credit system.

In 1984, Winston Smith managed to find a corner out of view of the telescreen. But there will be no escape from supervision in the dystopia Ellison envisions:

“Citizens will be on their best behavior because we are constantly recording and reporting everything that’s going on.”

Best behavior according to whom?

Bill Gates Wants to Use AI to Censor Online Speech

Some of moonbat plutocrat Bill Gates’s megalomaniacal schemes are too cartoonishly evil to take seriously, as when he proclaims he will use his money to cut down and bury forests and to blot out the sun. Others pose a more immediate threat. Consider his desire to use AI to censor online speech:

“We should have free speech, but if you’re inciting violence, if you’re causing people not to take vaccines, where are those boundaries that even the US should have rules? And then if you have rules, what is it?” Gates is quoted as saying.

When a liberal squeaks, “We should have free speech, but…” prepare to have a sock stuffed in your mouth.

He was evasive on who the authority to introduce that might be, but he clearly wants censorship and wants it to act swiftly. “Is there some AI that encodes those rules because you have billions of activity and if you catch it a day later, the harm is done,” he said.

Thought police have to work proactively, as in Minority Report. Again we see that the dystopia Big Tech moonbats are progressively imposing is inspired by gloomy science fiction movies.

Meta Okay With Calls for Jewish Genocide

Hate speech is speech leftists hate. Say anything that blasphemes against their godless religion, and you have committed hate speech. Calling for the extermination of Jews is not hate speech, which implies that this is consistent with progressivism. Meta makes it official:

The independent Oversight Board for Instagram and Facebook ruled Wednesday that the phrase “from the river to the sea” is not necessarily hate speech when addressing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

“From the river to the sea” in this context is a call for Jews to be expunged from their ancient homeland.

Leftists want Jews eradicated because they want us eradicated.

Censorship is a one-way street. It will only be applied against those the establishment wants silenced. A free society respects free speech for everybody, not just for leftists and terrorists.

Zuckerberg Says He’s Sorry He Censored for Dems

Moonbat technotwerp Mark Zuckerberg bears a heavy load of guilt for the Biden/Harris Regime coming to power, not least because he aggressively censored revelations about Joe Biden’s influence peddling through his bagman Hunter. Now that his complicity in tyranny has been exposed, he says he’s sorry:

“I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it.” Those words from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg came this week with an admission in a letter that his company, Facebook, did yield to pressure from the Biden-Harris administration to censor American citizens on a wide array of subjects.

No doubt the Deep State leaned on him even before Biden/Harris came to power. But we have not yet reached the stage where prominent people are dragged off and shot for resisting. Zuckerberg could have stood up to these thugs the way Elon Musk has been doing. Whether out of cowardice or because he agrees with their repugnant ideology, he neglected his duty as an American by meekly complying.

Zuckerberg’s sudden regret only came after his company fought for years to conceal the evidence of its work with the government to censor opposing views. Zuckerberg was finally compelled to release the documents by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, and the House Judiciary Committee.

Zuck claims he will “push back” against future Democrat attempts to coerce Facebook to censor on their behalf. Wouldn’t that be nice?

Ham-Fisted Election Interference by Google

Their first assassination attempt failed, serving only to showcase Trump’s courage in the face of danger. Therefore it never happened, according to the information gatekeepers at Google:

Google users searching for the attempted assassination of former President Trump were miffed when the desired results failed to populate on the search engine. …

Screenshots from Google instead showed recommended search results of the failed assassination of Ronald Reagan and the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, whose death sparked World War I, the shooting of Bob Marley and the failed attempt on former President Ford.

The leading candidate for president had the top of his ear shot off due to the extreme and possibly deliberate negligence of the Secret Service. The event was of great historical significance. But if it makes Democrats look bad or Trump look good, it didn’t happen.

Google’s heavy thumb is pressing firmly on the scale. Strike that. Google’s ham fist is pressing firmly on the scale:

It isn’t just the “Don’t Be Evil” moonbats at Google. If you don’t know where the entire Big Tech establishment is coming from, just ask AI:

Microsoft Backs Away From DEI

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle embodies not only the incompetence that nearly killed Trump but also DEI, the lunatic implementation of Cultural Marxism that has been taken to such obviously pernicious extremes that even Microsoft has had enough:

Microsoft sparked internal revolt after it fired its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) team, leading the program’s leader to slam the company’s ‘changing business needs.’

The tech giant’s move was exposed in an email obtained by Business Insider, which appears to show the DEI internal team leader criticizing the fact diversity was ‘no longer business critical.’

Microsoft joins a number of tech companies in walking back DEI commitments that were made in the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020, including Google, Meta and Zoom.

Even Big Tech is getting fed up with the prevailing moonbattery. Fairness and merit may yet be reinstated.
