Though shalt not poke fun at certain often-triple bracketted tribesfolks. Especially not by posting a lawyer's brief on your blog! Do NOT post lawyers brief's on yer blog if they reference certain triple bracketted tribesfolks, folks! Seriously, ANYone should know the basics of respect for le Juif! It's, like, 2019 already¡ Especially in France where "Chutzpah Hebdo" gifs on your prominent comedy blog result in your own lawyer defending said comedy being charged a fine of $5,000 for defending you. France is funny. Funny like a random 800 year old Gothic cathedral burnt as random propaganda to try to unite the people and break le Gilet Jaunes. The Lampshades and Soap are Back: Frenchman Sentenced to a Year in Prison for Denying Them https://dailystormer.name/the-lampshades-and-soap-are-back-frenchman-senten… If you thought the lampshades and bars of soap had been consigned to the mythology of the “Holocaust”, think again. Frenchman Alain Soral has just been sentenced to a year in prison for denying them. He did this by posting, on his website, a brief written by his lawyer, Damien Vigier, related to another case. In the text, Viguier says the shoes and wig were a “reference to memorial sites and sites of pilgrimage” that were “brought together to stir readers’ imaginations.” Concerning the wig, Viguier wrote “haircuts occur in all places of concentration for reasons of hygiene,” and said claims that Nazis made soap from human fat and lampshades from human skin were “war propaganda”. As far as I’m aware, no serious historian now maintains that the stories of Jews being turned into lampshades and bars of soap were anything but fiction. … we’ve reached the point where objective truth no longer matters. The lawyer was also fined 5000 euros for simply writing a brief that defended his client from the charges laid against him! … https://dailystormer.name/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/gd_dessin_charlie_hebd… … Jews are gloating about their latest victory over him. The International League Against Racism and Anti-Semitism praised the ruling, saying the decision to impose a prison sentence on Soral, who has been convicted in the past, shows the “exceptional character” of the decision. …“We will continue to prosecute Mr. Soral as long as he makes anti-Jewish remarks,” said attorney Ilana Soskin, representing the International League Against Racism and Anti-Semitism, which brought the January complaint against Soral. https://www.timesofisrael.com/extreme-right-frenchman-sent-to-prison-for-ho… … https://dailystormer.name/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Jew-lampshade.png

All that fuss and bother about Mendax
by Steve Kinney 21 Apr '19

21 Apr '19

Our comrade Mendax has a way with the ladies, including accomplished professionals like Argentine Ambassador to the UK (2006-2011) Alicia Castro: "Then we succeeded that he would be allowed to have a kitten, whose company he greatly enjoyed, and whose presence at the embassy has generated one of the most odd and obtuse amongst the complaints raised by the current president of Ecuador." http://theindicter.com/my-friend-julian-assange-alicia-castro-ex-ambassador… In my opinion, the whole current mess is not fair to James. Does anyone know who's looking after him now? Meanwhile, here's a rare find: Sensible commentary on the state of play on the legal front: http://johnhelmer.net/the-julian-assange-case-now-puts-the-us-on-trial-in-a… For the new kids: The theory behind the practice of Wikileaks in a brief and seemingly unfinished essay from Himself, courtesy of JYA: https://cryptome.org/0002/ja-conspiracies.pdf Wikileaks was originally presented as a community project, a "Wikipedia of" leaked documents, vetted and analyzed by a distributed network of volunteers. But when the Manning files showed up, Assange hijacked the project and put it on lockdown, presumably due to security concerns when presented with what may stand as The Leak Of The Century. Our Mendax pissed a lot of people off, yrs. truly included - but when Collateral Murder, War Diaries and Cablegate hit the nables, I forgave all. He surely knows the definition of "humility" but to him it must forever remain an abstract concept. Considering his impact on public affairs, I must endorse his tendency to do whatever the fuck he thinks will work. :o)

My second Facebook thoughtcrime in two weeks!
by Steve Kinney 21 Apr '19

21 Apr '19

Me so proud: Just got locked out of The Facebook for the second time in two weeks, this time thanks to a MegaChurch Xtian bitch I happen to know IRL, who recognized herself "all to clearly" in this post and falsely reported it as a TOS violation: http://pilobilus.net/good.little.nazis.html Don't y'all hate on me 'cause I have an account at The Facebook. I set it up when I needed to verify the promotional gimmicks I was building into a couple of commercial websites - the effectiveness of "share on Facebook" buttons (home made, non-tracking unless the sucker clicks on them), positive control of the preview images and text presented, etc. Once it was there, I started using the Facebook account to pump out propaganda. If nothing else, the local activist community noticed and I got yanked into the scene and 'made use of.' My kind of fun! I encourage CPunks readers who also maintain accounts at The Facebook - no need to confess that sin here - to share the above link. Since it's hosted on my website vs. presenting as your very own thoughtcrime, this should not lead to any sanctions. I will, of course, make the said link my own first post once "allowed" to access The Facebook again. Have you annoyed a polite, respectable Nazi Pig today? :o)

Yep, if he's extradited, this is how it will go. Unless choked to death in a paddy wagon, poisoned, knifed, shot, dropped from a chopper, droned, electrocuted, chemo'd, infected with fatal disease, or converted to a high value undercover (deeper than since 2006).

In its current, neutered form, the bill provides exclusive authority to the Attorney General to enforce the Act, which means regular citizens won't be able to bring forward a case regarding tech giants recording them in their homes.

Jeff Morris said that "word on the street" was that Microsoft, "marshalled forces to keep the bill from moving out of the House Rules committee." He claimed "there was a tax proposal here ... to pay for STEM education," and that "in exchange for Microsoft support[ing that tax,] having Right to Repair die..." was a condition, as well as another privacy policy Microsoft wanted to advance. The state representative hedged that "I can't confirm or deny this, because I have not seen a smoking gun." But he also told his interviewer that to paint a discouraging picture of the landscape after passage of the bill, "Microsoft was going around telling our members that they wouldn't sell Surface Tablets in Washington any longer."
