Vaccination false dichotomies - CCHD propaganda against evidence-based debate - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 15 Aug '20

To all the "mask protestors" out there who finally found their balls or ovaries, HERE is an issue which does _not_ have any possible righteous foundation - UNLIKE the question of masks - as in, are you seriously trying to hold that "there is no possible valid foundation for wearing a mask in certain circumstances"?? If so, consider what you wouldsay to nurses, doctors, surgeons, firefighters and abotoirs... The point is that if you are truly set on "standing on THIS rock to the metaphorical death" then shouldn't you choose a rock which has NO POSSIBLE ethical foundation?? (I'm just asking for a friend…) The Center For Cancel Culture And Digital Hypocrisy, otherwise known as the Center [sic] For Countering Digital Hate, is beginning a crusade "to censor legitimate scientific opinion and evidence based debate". As has been sardonically "suggested", "if it says 'vaccine' on the label, inject it immediately!" One of our various fundamental human rights is the right to engage in public debate on any and every topic we so choose, and "Big Social", the Silicon Valley "made kings" including Google, Facbook and Twitter, continue to ban, censor, shadow ban, and justify these free speech violating actions of theirs on a regular basis: now THIS is an actual clear and present danger to the foundations of our modern community - if you want a hill to metaphorically die on, then look no further! Ian Davis of Off-Guardian.org unpacks the latest round of "Justification Propaganda" from one of Big Social's primary propaganda arms: Inside The Center For Cancel Culture And Digital Hypocrisy, Part 1 Iain Davis via Off-Guardian.org, https://off-guardian.org/2020/08/11/ccdh-the-centre-for-cancel-culture-and-… https://www.zerohedge.com/political/inside-center-cancel-culture-and-digita… The Center For Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) are a UK based organisation who have misspelled “centre” in their name. Perhaps they have opted for the U.S spelling in the hope of selling their peculiar brand of morally bankrupt censorship to the American propaganda market. https://www.counterhate.co.uk/ The Anti-Vaxx Industry, is a propaganda leaflet with two main objectives. The first is to create a false dichotomy in the public imagination and the second is to build a public-private censorship grid in anticipation of forthcoming government legislation. This is proposed to censor legitimate scientific opinion and evidence based debate on a wide range of issues the government and its corporate partners would rather silence. Including any questioning of vaccines. [example leaflet image not attached] They insist that anyone who has any doubts about any vaccine rejects all vaccines outright. This isn’t true but the CCDH are censors and propagandists, not rationalists. https://in-this-together.com/anti-rationalist/ Comically, they claim they are a non-governmental organisation (NGO). While technically plausible, their network of links to government, globalist think tanks and private corporations is extensive. The CCDH espouse the social reform and political philosophy of progressivism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressivism This advocates alleged progress through the advancement of science, technology and economic development. In the UK this is commonly associated with the political movement found on the right wing of the Labour Party and is the dominant ideology of the Parliamentary Labour Party (PLP). http://progressonline.org.uk/ ... Free speech muffas - now there's a hill worth metaphorically dying on.

The Truth is Paywalled But the Lies Are Free: Notes on why I hoard data
by grarpamp 14 Aug '20

14 Aug '20

https://old.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/i7uvve/the_truth_is_paywalled… https://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/bavaria-to-ban-printing-of-hit… https://www.schoyencollection.com/23-religions/extinct-religions/23-1-sumer… " https://www.currentaffairs.org/2020/08/the-truth-is-paywalled-but-the-lies-… I came across a beautifully written article by Nathan J. Robinson about how quality work costs money to access and propaganda is freely given. The article makes some good points on why it is important for data to be more free, which I will summarize below: 1) Nobody is allowed to build a giant free database of everything human beings have ever produced. 2) Copyright law can be an intensive restriction on the freedom of speech and determines what information you can (and not) share with others. 3) The concept of a public community library needs to evolve. As books, and other content move online, our communities have as well. 4) Human creativity is phenomenally leashed when human knowledge is limited. 5) Free and affordable libraries are dying. This got me thinking about why I care about hoarding data. Data is invaluable! A digital dark age is forming around us and we can do what we can to prevent it. A lot of people here will hoard data for personal reasons. I hoard data for others. The things the people in this subreddit hoard whether it be movies, Youtube, pictures, news articles, websites, all of it is culture. Its history. Even memes and social media are not crap. Even literal shit is valuable to a scatologist. Can you imagine if we were able to find the preserved excrement from a long extinct animal? What one sees as shit, is so much more to someone else who is trained and educated. Its data. The internet and social media around us is Art and Culture from our time. This is history for the future to use and learn. Things go viral for a reason. The information shared in the jokes and content are snapshots of the public's thinking and perspective on the world. Invaluable data for future scholars. Imagine we found a Viking warship and on it was a perfectly preserved book of jokes. Sure many at the time might have thought they were shit jokes made at the expense of others. But we would learn so much about their customs, society, and the evolution of human civilization if this book was preserved and found. And the book's contents were made available to the world. Also a lot of political content is shared on social media and comment sections as well. Our understanding of politics will be carved up in units of memes, and shared on thousands of siloed paywalled platforms and mediums over time. And our role is to collect and consolidate them. This is but a small sliver of the documentation of how our world is changing around us. And we can do our part to save and make free to others as much of it as we can. "
