Who is Paying For All of this Liberal Street Chaos? ~ Ep. 1348 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes (a.k.a. Newsletter!):

In this episode, I address the real money behind the left wing plot to destroy Americans cities and towns from the inside-out.

If you want to know what happened to my posts for about 30 episodes, then you need to return to my latest blog post and see why I've had to skip all of those great episodes.  I can happily say, though, it was just Mother Nature that took me out for 5 weeks, and not George Soros.

Yes, I'm aware that we aren't supposed to mention that name.  I've known about his adverse influences on media and other spheres of power.  It has only been in the last few months, since the St. Louis incident, where he financed the elections of District Attorneys, who turned around and didn't prosecute rioters, but went after people like the McCloskeys that were trying to defend their property. Yes, now that I know about that, I wanted to make sure that you know about that, too.  George Soros is up to no good, as you will see in this episode.  And neither is BLM.

Also, there is more exciting news from Dan that you will hear about in this episode, including his equity stake in Rumble.com, a competitor with youtube.com. 

And by the way, keep tuning in to the blogs here, and to the show.  There is a very good interview between Dan and somebody very special, coming our way!

Tucker: Big Tech censors dissent over coronavirus lockdowns ~ Fox News Video

Big technology companies are using the COVID-19 tragedy to increase their power over the American population.

Tucker Carlson of Fox News starts out with an amazing commentary on the disappearance of our First Amendment rights on the internet, such as in the big tech platforms like youtube.com, Facebook, and Twitter. Joining Tucker after his commentary was Dave Rubin, author of "Don't Burn This Book."

After you see the following video, I'm pretty sure you'll understand why I'm not adding any of my own commentary to this post! The only take-away that I can assure you of, and that I wish I could tell you about, may be way more than I'm now allowed to say out loud (if you know what I mean). That is pretty darn sad. I'm praying that posting this video here, and then tweeting it, won't get me in trouble with my accounts!

Please take a few moments to watch the following video, if you dare... And if you don't see me around here any more, you'll know why.  If this goes any further, with what they are doing to silence any kind of dissent, we'll pray it doesn't get like other places in the world where I'd be "disappeared." And I'm keeping Tucker Carlson and Dave Rubin in my prayers, too.

A nation of mental weaklings ~ By Phil Elmore

In our weakness as a society, we have decided – and we are teaching our children – that anything critical of us or our opinions is mean, anything mean is bullying, and anything that can be construed as bullying is illegal. We then strut about the Internet alternatively weeping, throwing up our hands in distress and threatening to sue anyone who has ever said something we did not like, even when we invited public criticism by publishing our work or our opinions in public. This attitude cannot be allowed to persist because it is undermining the spirit of individualism and of coping that made America the proud nation it once was. More worryingly, the inability of some of our citizens to cope with life creates an antagonism that makes everyone miserable.

In my first experiences in social networking online was on digg.com and youtube.com. I was appalled by the large amount of mean-spirited comments on anything I had submitted for the world to see! And did it bother me? You better believe it did! I wasn't raised that way, especially with the vulgar language built into the vitriolic remarks. However, I soon realized something that helped me cope. I realized that it wasn't my fault that they were not raised the same way I was. I found it was much easier not to be upset and fight back, but just to let it roll off.

However, as Phil is saying, there are people in the online communities that are incapable of accepting someone else's opinions, and I saw a lot of my friends at digg.com get banned. In many cases, it truly was just for having a different opinion from the folks who filed the complaints. Phil wrote, "That is the dirty secret held by the mental weaklings who cry 'bullying' and 'harassment' every time they are confronted with criticism." The sad thing is, those who whimper about "bullying" and "harassment" have taken it to a new level, when they claim that it is those with different opinions that are making them feel victimized! No, actually, that isn't just sad... It's a threat to our freedom of speech when our opinions and criticism are no longer tolerated because somebody may be offended. As Phil said in the excerpt above, "This attitude cannot be allowed to persist because it is undermining the spirit of individualism and of coping that made America the proud nation it once was."

Do you become despondent when someone you barely know "unfriends" you on a social media site like Facebook? Do you weep when you realize you have fewer "followers" on Twitter than you did the day before? Do you experience feelings of social withdrawal, loneliness and even suicide when a complete stranger leaves a nasty comment on one of your YouTube videos?

Are you a wilting, hind-wringing, self-absorbed pansy?

Recently, a coalition of fretting social commentators, parenting "experts" and media pundits pronounced that our children, for whom social media is a pervasive, integral part of their day-to-day lives, risk near-crippling "depression" should they fail to be affirmed, validated and friended on the Internet. "Because of the intensity of the online world," sniffed Parenting.com's Jennifer Kelly Geddes at CNN, "teens who spend a great deal of time there may be at risk for a new phenomenon called 'Facebook depression.' Teen development is, in large part, about separating from parents and gaining peer acceptance, and social networking sites allow them to do both. But if online harassment or rejection occurs, such as 'de-friending,' symptoms of depression may be the result."

It is this attitude that is crippling our society with mental weakness, hypersensitivity and overreaction to criticism. Recently, I spoke about this very issue with Beverly Pearson, a retired RN with 20 years experience working with a popular OB/GYN. "Teenagers today aren't prepared anymore," she told me. "We have prolonged childhood. Growing up, we all knew that when we hit 18 we were expected to be on our own. We geared our lives, including high school, as preparation for life, because we knew that 18 was adulthood."

Previously in Technocracy, I explained how "zero tolerance" attitudes in our schools are creating a nation of victims who are trained to be passive. Taught that defending themselves is no different than attacking someone else – taught, ultimately, that there is no moral difference between aggressor and defender, between rapist and raped, between murderer and victim – they grow into adults who won't fight for their civil rights because they simply won't know how. More insidious than this, however, is the transformation modern attitudes about "bullying" and cyberbullying," now coupled with anxious doomsaying about "Facebook depression," is wreaking in our citizens. If we do not acknowledge, refute and rebuke these attitudes, we will soon be a nation of bedwetting man-boys and girl-women, incapable of coping with even the most benign or deserved of criticism.

Take, for example, young Rebecca Black, who became a viral video sensation with an insipid, monstrously auto-tuned song and video she performed with the help of a paid service. That service indulges would-be pop singers by taking their parents' money and inserting them into prepackaged pablum destined to die quietly and unobserved on video-sharing sites like YouTube ... but in Rebecca's case, the perfect storm of dumb lyrics, awful video and earnest desire made her video an auditory train wreck from which few can turn away. Rather than focus on her success, Rebecca has made the media rounds complaining about the "bullying" she experienced when people left nasty comments on her stupid video (see below).
