    Default Enjoy It While It Lasts

    A few days ago JPP changed the format menu. The color function was removed, as well as the sound to videos. I checked a message board that I posted on a few years ago. The format menu was changed. It is a different menu from JPP’s, but the result is the same. NO COLOR FUNCTION AND NO SOUND. I have to think it is all connected to:


    Just prior to his appointment as President Obama’s so-called regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein wrote a lengthy academic paper suggesting the government should “infiltrate” social network websites, chat rooms and message boards. Such “cognitive infiltration,” Sunstein argued, should be used to enforce a U.S. government ban on “conspiracy theorizing.”

    Social Media Gave Americans Freedom Of Speech —— now the government is taking it away.


    Until the Internet came along free speech was an inactive Right. That is to say few people mounted a soapbox to talk to strangers.

    Take this government conspiracy to the bank. In a very short time freedom of speech will disappear from social media forever. The Parasite Class’ absolute control over public discourse puts too much money in the pockets of television’s parasites to allow freedom of speech to continue on social media.

    In short: The government could not get everything in Obama’s, and Cass Sunstein’s blueprint right away; so they decided to incrementally diminish the effect message board posters had. Screwing up message board format menus is only the beginning.

    The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do. It is the freedom to refrain, withdraw and abstain which makes a totalitarian regime impossible. Eric Hoffer

    I guess Trump has been successful trying to control the media. Now the government is censoring color!
