FreeSpeech and Censorship: Thread

The Censored have been taking a huge first mover adoption
advantage, rapidly routing around the Censorship that was
first applied to them, ditching fake sponsors, spinning up their own
independent services platforms and partnerships, and utilizing
decentralized platforms as well, and crypto donations
are starting to roll in as the global crypto economy grows.
The Censors thought they would win against the Censored,
but the world is now digital and increasingly uncensorable,
they thought wrong.



“Cancelling Works Both Ways:” Dan Bongino Goes OFF; Ends Relationship
With Huge Sponsor For Caving to Antifa Boycott

On Friday, former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino took a stand
against the unhinged leftist mob and the weak-kneed advertisers who
have repeatedly caved to their every whim.

During his show, Bongino announced that he has severed all ties with
one of his largest advertisers – SimpliSafe Security – because the
company had shamelessly cancelled their advertising with the Post
Millennial after two Antifa hacks had sent a couple of tweets.

He also ended his personal subscription with SimpliSafe.

    “Cancelling works both ways, and to those companies that would bow
down to the left-wing extremist activists who complain on Twitter: If
you don’t support free speech – get out. I’m not interested at all.”

The Post Millennial has been a frequent target of left-wing cancel
campaigns, especially ones that are organized by Antifa, partly
because their editor-in-chief – Andy Ngo – has been on the forefront
of exposing the militant black-bloc group’s actions. The outlet is one
of the only to report on Antifa honestly which subjects them to
constant defamation online by radical activists.

The outlet, like most other conservative platforms, relies heavily on
advertiser funding to be able to create content.

Bongino rightfully understands that these politically-driven boycotts
do real damage to smaller outlets and content creators that do not
have the institutional backing of a place like Fox News or even his
own show. The stand he is making is on behalf of the up-and-comers and
the smaller conservative platforms.

But, according to him, it will pay off for those who stand together
against the radical mob in the long run.

    “Post Millennial may not have the assets I do – or the resources,
or the time or the ‘go f*ck yourself attitude’ I have. I’m sure they
do — but they don’t have the assets to fight back that I do, which are
substantial thanks to people like Nandini.

    Now, to be candid, if you don’t have a lot of money and you’re not
financially secure, I guess, it can be pretty painful right? They
could probably take a few of your sponsors away.

    But what they don’t realize is they’ve actually created a parallel
economy. These are ‘short term victories’ for leftist extremists,
because as they fire little shots at conservative media, they are
pushing that media, along with cultural content creators, into a
parallel economy where they can’t be cancelled by activist shaming.”

In Bongino’s mind, the companies who fold to the online activist mobs
don’t deserve to have any of their products advertised anyway. They
are weak and shouldn’t be supported if they shun half of the
population for their political beliefs.
As he also points out, the people who drive these cancelled campaigns
are paid political activists who lay around in their mommies basement
all day, combing through conservative content to look for something to
stir up a bogus ‘nontroversy’ over.

    “Here’s a group of leftist nuts – there’s very few of them –
again, they’re all basement dwellers, they don’t have a lot of money
or lives or anything and they’re not particularly bright.

    They’re paid by people like Media Matters and others – and they
sit around and they watch conservative content, and they just look for
any reason to try to promote a boycott against your show.

    That’s legitimately what they do.”

Bongino vowed to not let this end with SimpliSafe. He is completely
fed up with the “communist totalitarians” who have gained such a
foothold of power in today’s world and will “dedicate” the rest of his
life to fighting against their anti-American tyranny.

    “If you have weak companies that don’t want to work with people
who are politically conservative, please do us a favor, get rid of
them for us. You’re doing us a huge public service.
    You’re playing with the wrong people. So I’m gonna warn these
companies out there to do business with Nandini – just like I cost
Warby Parker, the eyeglass company who deals with Nandini, a whole lot
of business.
    Don’t doubt me folks, my audiences, thousands of times larger than
the cat lady’s. This is asymmetric warfare. I am a war of attrition
guy, and I don’t stop, ever. I have a really bad temper, a really
horrible attitude.

    And one thing I genuinely dislike are communist totalitarians. I
have amassed enough of a fortune saving over my entire life to
dedicate the rest of my life to combating liberal communist buffoons
like Nandini Jemima and I Chad whatever his-face-is…

    …I just want to say the other sites that aren’t jumping in to help
out The Gateway Pundit and Post Millennial and others have been
attacked by this crazy cat person.   Why are you sitting on the
sidelines cashing a check. ‘Oh, I don’t want to upse the sponsor.’
You don’t want to upset the sponsor? and watch the world get flushed
down the drain.  It’s time for everyone to stand up here.  Seriously“

Dan Bongino took a massive stand for all conservatives this weekend
and deserves to be commended. More influential conservatives should do
the same and back the smaller creators and platforms when advertisers
inexcusably cave to the left – they don’t deserve our business anyway.
