The shuttening - "No Fap" website? It's a thing, for sure, and it's being targetted by the (((shut it downs))). Surprising. But also not surprising.

JOHN Young type Stalinists are even worse than Nazi's

Breaking with Stalin after Hungary is far too little - far too late. The Nazi's were relatively humane genocidal executioners compared to these Jean Paul Sartre approved, mass-murderers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor

Why are all the Nazi's weeping?
by professor rat 09 Jan '21

09 Jan '21

https://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/down-goes-parler/35369/ Remember, or have we forgotten so soon, that occasionally people die to keep the rest of us free. That's the way it's been for hundreds of years. The United States of America was founded by people who risked death to shake off the yoke of a government that was, by the standards of the day, not particularly bad. Think about it. Somebody had to be the first one to start banging on the Berlin Wall, with a sledgehammer, in 1989. Somebody had to be the first to walk through. Somebody had to be the first to stand up and say, "Enough!" And the ironic thing is, the most strangely unusual thing, is that the entire Eastern Bloc fell, almost bloodlessly, in a couple weeks, because one by one everybody realized that all that's sometimes required is to finally stand up and be counted, and to just say no to the government. .."

Please collect proof and logs that our communications are altered in transit, so that system administrators and programmers will resolve the situation. I've sent some messages to this list indicating alteration that are misleading. I often get confused. We need actual logs for the problem to be resolved. If you can, please reply to this email so that logs can be combined. Note: it is _highly_ abnormal for nobody to cryptographically sign their emails on a hacker list, but the humans have been hacked as well as the communication systems, so it's hard to know what's going on for sure.
