    How will Facebook, Google and Twitter define the "Hate" they plan to censor?

    How will Facebook, Google and Twitter define the "Hate" they plan to censor?

    By L. Brent Bozell III
    Published June 03, 2016 FoxNews.com

    (AP)

    Bloomberg reports that “U.S. Internet giants Facebook Inc., Twitter Inc., Google and Microsoft Corp. pledged to tackle online hate in less than 24 hours as part of a joint commitment with the European Union to combat the use of social media by terrorists.” Further, the companies “said it remains a ‘challenge’ to strike the right balance between freedom of expression and hate speech.”

    It makes perfect sense if you believe in the existence of evil, and therefore of hatred. It’s not just a right, but a moral imperative to forbid it on social media platforms. The most obvious example is, of course, ISIS and whatever other terrorist groups exist. It’s pretty much a unanimous consensus given that even ISIS et. al. would readily admit they hate the West.


    So why are conservatives alarmed? Why are they pointing I-told-you-so fingers at those – this writer being one -- who recently visited with Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook, and then vouched for the sincerity of the FB brass (but not other sites) that forcefully stated its desire to work with conservatives?


    At the meeting at Facebook’s Menlo Park headquarters the discussion focused on the roles of the “curators,” those individuals hired by the company to ensure that community standards are met. It’s a necessary endeavor but also one that introduces the human factor and, as a result, subjective opinion. It’s not difficult to find the slippery slope where matters of “hatred” are concerned.


    What is “hate,” as defined by leftists, the very community from which these curators hail?


    The Southern Poverty Law Center is a prominent radical leftist group hell-bent on poisoning society against conservatives, especially the social kind. It features a “Hate Map” with the locations of conservative organizations of all stripes. The Family Research Center, The Center for Security Policy, the Center for Family and Human Rights, ACT for America and the Traditional Values Coalition – these are but a few. And what views do these “haters” hold?

    Some support traditional marriage, some stopping illegal immigration, some fighting radical Islam.


    A writer for the leftist website Salon has his example of hatred – the Confederate flag, which he calls “the American swastika.” “[D]isplaying the Confederate flag anywhere is, at bottom, an act of hate. It should be recognized as such, and punished as a hate crime.” (He later reversed himself, heroically likening his “inconsistency” to that of Frederick Douglas.)


    According to “The College Fix,” an employee from Loyola Marymount University was discussing her views on sexual orientation with three students. “Both the police and the university’s Bias Incident Response Team [!] are investigating the stated belief that only two genders exist, male and female, as a hate crime.”


    The College Republican Chapter at DePaul University stands accused of a “hate crime” for writing Trump’s name in chalk on sidewalks.


    Speaking of which, when a pro-life student group at John Hopkins University used a sidewalk to counsel women near an abortion facility, it was denied official campus club recognition by the college student government for promoting “hate speech.”


    Google “tea party” and “hate speech” and you get 1,280,000 listings.


    Far left agitators branded Brendan Eich a “hater” and forced him to step down as head of the company he founded, Mozilla, because he contributed $1,000 to a traditional marriage referendum in California (which passed). Dan Cathy of Chick-fil-A was also targeted as a “hater” for defending traditional marriage.

    GLAAD’s website features a list of over 100 opponents who serve as media commentators but who should be expelled from civilized society for being “extremists” or “haters.” The list includes six U.S. Catholic bishops.


    The “Washington Redskins” is hate speech, too.

    The list seems endless. Virtually any belief opposed by the radical left is branded “hatred” and that belief spoken becomes “hate speech.” The goal is to silence the conservative world view through censorship, period. The fringe will use every means available to pressure these online giants to follow suit. Will Facebook, Google, Twitter and Microsoft comply?
    Time will tell.

    Who cares? If people don't like it, they can take their business elsewhere. I still can't stand Facebook and rarely if ever go there. Twitter is the same waste of time. I spend a lot of time on Google and YouTube and feel completely unrestricted. Facebook and Twitter are just websites. YouTube and Google are just websites.

    Remember AOL and Yahoo? Once they were everywhere now they are barely history.

    When Microsoft starts policing political correctness in its operating system, then it will be time to worry.

    Then what? Again, Facebook is not the internet. Facebook is a website on the internet. If Google were to block you from its directory, this would be a far more serious matter. But even then the Google directory is still just a website. There are other directories. If it became law that any directory on any website on the internet had to block ALIPAC, then that would be a violation of the constitutional guarantees to free speech. Not a violation of ALIPAC's right to free speech, but a violation of the directory website's right to free speech.

    Don't confuse a website on the internet with the internet itself. Perhaps to really wrap your mind around what is actually going on, one should understand more about the technology of the internet. The internet is not even like the air waves of radio broadcasts. When you hook up to the internet, you could yourself just as easily be a website. You have an internet address -- a number, not a URL -- and if you were to install a web server, you could serve pages just like everyone else using that number. Next, you could get a domain name and then serve pages from that very same computer that you use to "be" on the internet using a domain name just like Facebook, "www.myfacebook.com". Naturally, it would take a bit more programming to actually create something like Facebook, but there is nothing otherwise to prevent you from doing so.

    Facebook is blocking ALIPAC


    Special Alert: (Warning our funds are $8,000 below our goals. Immediate help needed at http://www.alipac.us/donations/ )

    ALIPAC activists have been warned many times that Facebook is sandbagging, blocking, and censoring materials about stopping illegal immigration. We now have even more evidence that we are being blocked from reaching our own supporters on Facebook more than ever before. In fact, this morning's release titled, "How ALIPAC Defeated Boehner, Rubio, and Obama's Amnesty Legislation" was severely blocked this morning. (A copy of the message and article is in the Announcements section of ALIPAC.us.) You can see many of our supporters reporting that the broadcast was blocked on my William Gheen profile page here (click).

    A few days ago we spent $60 of our very limited funds to conduct a test on our main Facebook page for ALIPAC at this link...

    https://www.facebook.com/william.gheen?fref=ts

    ...where we have 15,450 supporters we have worked hard to organize off Facebook, on Facebook, and with some paid ads. For $60 we were only allowed to show our message to 2,459 of our 15,450 supporters. Thus, Facebook would charge us $379 to reach all our supporters on that one page, and if we were to pay to reach the total of 507,000 people we have organized on our 10 Facebook pages and groups (click to view), that would cost us about $12,376 !!!

    This is about the 5th time we have documented Facebook blocking us, hampering us, suppressing our activism. The game is rigged on Facebook.

    You can help mitigate their blocking by visiting our main page often and Liking, commenting on, and sharing the important posts you find there. But ALIPAC.US email alerts are the only sure fire way to make sure your communications with our organization are strong.

    German Chancellor Angela Merkel recently confronted Facebook founder and pro illegal alien amnesty advocate Mark Zuckerberg at a heads of state dinner. She told Zucks that he needed to do something about all of these Germans expressing on his website their hateful anti-immigrant opinions about the forced massive Muslim resettlement to which German citizens are currently being subjected.

    Mark Zuckerberg replied, "We are working on that!"

    As of tonight, only 4 days remain until our final fundraising deadline of Midnight Sunday Oct 25.

    Please help us overcome this censorship and oppression we face from tech sector giants like Facebook and Google. Don't let them find ways to convince you to surrender or stop supporting good groups like ALIPAC.

    Our current funds levels are at $22,270 of 30,000. We must raise $8,000 in the next 4 days or ALIPAC must bow out of the national fight against illegal immigration before 2015 ends.

    Please don't let that happen and don't let the illegals win a major victory due to American apathy.

    Please donate now at...

    Mysterious disruptions of our communications


    All ALIPAC supporters and allied illegal immigration fighting groups and activists:

    We have decided at this time that it would be prudent for us to forgo today's activism alert designed to fight the next amnesty threat and Obama's plan to declare a form of martial law for America next week by decreeing amnesty for 4.5 million illegals to warn you that our communications are being disrupted.

    We are having significant problems with our social media communications, phone communications, search engine communications, and email delivery communications as we approach Obama's plans to decree amnesty. While some of these problems started a while back, many of them have manifested or intensified since just before the 2014 elections! The pattern is clear and makes perfect sense since groups like ALIPAC and activists like you are the ones who have stopped amnesty more than 7 times before now!


    Each of these disruptions of our communications is subtle and not a complete block as such full blocking would be very overt. However, we acknowledge that at certain phases of Obama's plans we could experience complete black outs at critical times in the future. (See details of problems below.)

    While we acknowledge these disruptions in our ability to speak and communicate electronically may just be coincidence, very little happens by coincidence in politics, and the extensive pattern of disruptions suggests that a form of electronic warfare may currently be deployed against our movement by our own government or private contractors seeking to curtail the current political revolution afoot in America!

    TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT OUR COMMUNICATIONS WITH YOU AND OTHER ACTIVISTS

    We need each of you to compensate by--

    A. Making sure you are signed up with your best email for ALIPAC.us email alerts using both the box on left of screen at alipac.us and at this link...
    http://eepurl.com/GXAS9.


    B. Making sure our alerts reach you without going into your Spam folder and that you check our homepage (or Announcements section) at www.ALIPAC.us on a regular basis to make sure all alerts are reaching you. You should hear from us 2-3 times per week by email on average.

    Our email alerts are the way we have accomplished the most and we need you to report any missing emails right away. If you forward our emails, make sure you remove the Unsubscribe at the bottom so you do not get removed by someone else down the line. We are currently receiving reports that our emails are not reaching their destinations and sometimes we have sent important messages to more than 50,000 of you and only get any indication of response from a few hundred to a few thousand!

    --->
    Make sure listmaster@alipac.us and williamg@alipac.us are white listed for your email account (click for detailed instructions). <---

    C. If you can spare the time to become active in our online forums at alipac.us, your attention and participation there puts you in the best position to fight illegal immigration.



    FACEBOOK / MARK ZUCKERBERG CENSORSHIP

    We know for a fact that Facebook is "Faceblocking" us in many ways by limiting who sees our updates, limiting who can share our updates, and limiting our presence in search results.
    The results are that while we have over half a million people that have expressed support or interest in our more than 10 different social media pages, we are lucky if a few thousand see any given notice or call to action!

    IF YOU ARE SPENDING A LOT OF TIME ON FACEBOOK OR RELYING ON FACEBOOK INSTEAD OF ALIPAC.us and OTHER ALLIED WEBSITES, WE ARE GOING TO LOSE TRYING TO FIGHT ON ENEMY TERRITORY WHERE THE OWNER OF FACEBOOK IS PLANNING TO USE THAT TECHNOLOGY TO MANIPULATE MINDS TO PASS AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS AND MUCH MORE!

    GOOGLE RESTRICTIONS


    And while large numbers of people continue to visit www.ALIPAC.us on a daily basis because we are the largest archive of information in existence about illegal immigration and illegal immigration and amnesty are top issue of interest in America right now, it is clear to us that Google (which also actively supports amnesty for illegals) is also jamming us and reducing the number of people that can see us online. Two years back a Google employee or hacktivist working with a Google employee destroyed our ALIPAC Youtube account inventory of popular videos about illegal immigration and Google refused to answer any emails, faxes, letters, calls, or even calls from Congressional offices about the matter.(details)

    Phone Line Problems

    After having stable phone systems for many years, over the last few weeks many of our calls to each other within the ALIPAC organization and within our movement to stop amnesty have failed to get through or been cut off. Several talk radio show interviews have also been terminated/interrupted by complete loss of phone connection and internet service. Several leaders working together on projects like our national protests against illegal immigration that took place with more than 600 protests are reporting severe problems communicating with others by cell and online phones.

    Email Disruptions

    While ALIPAC abides by all Internet rules regarding email communications, in the last week alone we have received numerous reports that our website emails are going into spam folders despite the fact our supporters have told their email providers like Gmail, Hotmail, AOL, and Yahoo that they want to receive our alerts!

    We also have people who have been unsubscribed from our email lists but cannot figure out how or why that happened.

    Yesterday, one of the key activists we worked with to try to block Obama's surge of illegal alien filled buses in Oracle, AZ, was being blocked by Hotmail from sending us local news reports about the number of violent crimes happening at the local illegal immigrant housing facility! (click for story) This person used to communicate with WilliamG@alipac.us on a regular basis, but when he tried to send us explosive news harmful to the Obama administration agenda his efforts were blocked several times before he finally got through!

    The link you provided above, http://eepurl.com/GXAS9, does not work.

    I'm having the problem in my Gmail that the email notifications of post responses are winding up in my spam folder.

    Internet censorship is the control or suppression of what can be accessed, published, or viewed on the Internet. It may be carried out by governments or by private organizations at the behest of government, regulators, or on their own initiative.
