Not sure where else to put this so it goes here.
From the article:
The Free Speech Union, founded by Toby Young was left with 'no clear explanation' as to why their account had been shut down. Mr Young told The Telegraph he believed it was a politically-motived decision as his organisation often defends gender-critical academics, describing the actions as a 'sinister form of cancel culture'.

BASTIDIDGES. |

I don't doubt Sheldon and Timmy and Donut, etc. would identify the monetary situation that way. When I talk about the 'intellectual elites' with 'quotes', I'm talking about Sheldon and Timmy and Donut and the like. They're tunnel visioned buffoons who are good at what they specialize in but not very bright in the big picture sense. When I talk about Delekkerste, who actually disagrees with most of those guys regularly I wouldn't use the 'quotes'. I consider him intellectually elite without the 'quotes'. Me, Gene (delekkerste) and a few others saw the inflation coming a mile away and knew it was going to be problematic. The buffoons argued tooth and nail that it was 'transitory'. I guess they define 'transitory' as 'record high', crippling, damaging and here to stay. I must be using the wrong dictionary then, because they also define 'recession', 'pandemic' and 'vaccine' differently than I do.  |

Thanks for the clarification, because that is what I thought. Delekkerste is worth paying attention to, and that is what made me question, because I agree he is certainly elite and focused, but not condescending like the Clown Club. He has been firm in his inflation stance as I recall, inclusive of a slide into a recession due to Fed pumping the rates (which will more likely than not trigger recession). Transitory does not mean month to month face kicks, or Kubiwatzi behind the lower ear lobe to cease an attack, via pain.

Google censored the Lab Leak Theory discussion.
Google censored the Covid-19 vaccine discussion.
They QUIETLY stopped censoring these discussions and there was ZERO accountability for this mass censorhip.
Now they 'mistakenly' censored the powerful, anti Great Reset speech by the new Italian Prime Minster and said it was a mistake.

Picoaggression: a really subtle aggressive move like when someone doesn't offer to pay for your latte. Very hurtful.

On gun control in Canada... Unbelievable. Little Gun Data, Gov’t AdmitsThe Department of Public Safety yesterday said it has no specific research indicating new gun controls will reduce gun crime. Initiatives were based on a general sense that fewer legal guns would make for safer homes, witnesses told the Commons public safety committee.
“I think Canadians would want to know the department has done a study that the outcomes will lead to enhanced public safety,” said Conservative MP Dane Lloyd (Sturgeon River-Parkland, Alta.). “Does the department have such a study or analysis that would indicate these programs will increase public safety?” “I don’t know exactly what impact it will have,” replied Talal Dakalbab, assistant deputy minister of public safety. Cabinet’s Bill C-21 An Act To Amend Certain Acts would prohibit all new sales of handguns in Canada. Cabinet in 2020 also proposed a buy-back program of some 1,500 high-powered firearms. The Parliamentary Budget Office in a 2020 report Cost Estimate Of The Firearm Buy-Back Program put expenses at $756 million but cautioned figures were incomplete. “Does your evidence show the handgun freeze and gun buy-back will lead to enhanced public safety or is that just something you’re speculating will happen?” aside MP Lloyd. “All guns are subject to risk,” replied Assistant Deputy Dakalbab. Liberal MP Taleeb Noormohamed (Vancouver Granville) pressed witnesses for a more definitive answer. “For me this always come down to people,” said Noormohamed. “In 2020, 173 women were killed by either present or former intimate partners. Forty percent of those were killed using guns, or just about 40 percent.” “Do you believe that had Bill C-21 been in effect earlier some of those lives would have been saved?” asked MP Noormohamed. “We do know obviously there is a five times greater chance of a fatality involving intimate partner violence when there’s a firearm present,” replied RCMP Deputy Commissioner Bryan Larkin. “It’s very difficult to surmise what could have been prevented or not.” “But is it fair to say based on your comments that fewer guns in homes means likely fewer gun deaths?” asked MP Noormohamed. “The reduction of firearms in the home potentially can lead to a safer residence,” replied Deputy Commissioner Larkin. “I am sincerely hopeful that it will help,” interjected Assistant Deputy Dakalbab. Neither the Department of Public Safety nor RCMP estimated the cost of the two programs. Cabinet introduced Bill C-21 last May 30. The Department of Foreign Affairs on August 19 banned legal imports of handguns under the Export And Import Permits Act, the same federal law used to restrict shipments of U.S. dairy products. The gun buy-back program fixed an original deadline of April 30, 2022 to have owners surrender as many as 518,000 firearms to local police. The deadline passed without any new schedule. |

Considering Big Tech was brutally wrong TWICE recently and we just experienced the two largest censorship campaigns in human history over the lab leak theory investigation and the vaccine injury discussion, this should worry everyone. I'm not sure where to put this but it's a part of the gaslighting campaign of Big Tech trying to erase history and rewrite the truth...all too common a theme these days. Paypal can now determine "at it's sole discretion" if you are spreading misinformation" and automatically deduct your account $2500 ------------------------------------------------------------ New PayPal Policy Lets Company Pull $2,500 From Users’ Accounts If They Promote ‘Misinformation’A new policy update from PayPal will permit the firm to sanction users who advance purported “misinformation” or present risks to user “wellbeing.” The financial services company, which has repeatedly deplatformed organizations and individual commentators for their political views, will expand its “existing list of prohibited activities” on November 3. Among the changes are prohibitions on “the sending, posting, or publication of any messages, content, or materials” that “promote misinformation” or “present a risk to user safety or wellbeing.” Users are also barred from “the promotion of hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory.” The company’s current acceptable use policy does not mention such activities. The Daily Wire reached out to PayPal for definitions of the added terms, although no response was received in time for publication. Deliberations will be made at the “sole discretion” of PayPal and may subject the user to “damages” — including the removal of $2,500 “debited directly from your PayPal account.” The company’s user agreement contains a provision in which account holders acknowledge that the figure is “presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPal’s actual damages” due to the administrative cost of tracking violations and damage to the company’s reputation. |
