I have more respect for Ted Cruz than I have for most politicians. To me, he is one of the good guys.

It's happening even more and will continue to get more aggressive by the left to silence dissent.

It will be very easy to point to anyone and call them a racist or conservative and have them deplatformed from social media sites, fired and blacklisted from jobs and any opportunity for gainful employment prospects and publicly doxxed so they can be harassed and terrorized by Biden brats and Antifa thugs at their homes.


Right now pretentions are being circulated among college campuses to out any college staff or professors who had anything dealings with the Republican Party or Trump. So the Red Guard just got embolden.

I'll be of the last to ever trust that lowlife. He's one of the phony conservatives who got us farther down the hole to where we are. Once he saw just how pissed the silent (silenced) majority is he jumped into this parade that he previously was selling out. Plus, how do you get past his lying character in running for President as a Canadian citizen?

While not throwing stones at you, you're going to have to produce some evidence of your allegations.

Edited: Reference that Canadian citizenship issue.

Questions have been raised as to whether Cruz meets the constitutional qualification that the President must be a natural born citizen as Cruz was born in Canada. Donald Trump, one of Cruz's opponents in the Republican primary, repeatedly questioned whether Cruz met the qualifications of being a natural born citizen.

Opinions, for the most part, concur that Cruz is eligible to serve as President of the United States; most constitutional scholars surveyed by Politico believe that he is eligible, and "a small, but vocal group" has issued challenges that he is not. According to a memo from the Congressional Research Service, "The weight of scholarly legal and historical opinion appears to support the notion that 'natural born Citizen' means one who is entitled under the Constitution or laws of the United States to U.S. citizenship 'at birth' or 'by birth,' including... those born abroad of one citizen parent who has met U.S. residency requirements."

Several lawsuits and ballot challenges asserting that Cruz is ineligible have been filed. No lawsuit or challenge has been successful, and in February 2016 the Illinois Board of Elections ruled in Cruz's favor, stating, "The candidate is a natural born citizen by virtue of being born in Canada to his mother who was a U.S. citizen at the time of his birth."

It's more a comment on how some of the televangelists types and their tard followers would make statements that he's ordained by God to save Christian America. He was racing to be the greatest ZIO-Christian shill. Not an America firster. Otherwise God would've had him BORN IN AMERICA if he's going to save America.

No, I'm all done making up my own mind and won't be judging him only on his recent political revelation of the past couple of years. He was a scourge POG when he entered the national scene, which means he can quickly revert to it if given a position like that of SCOTUS appointment. I'll give him one notch better than his compatriot Bachmann, another traitor, so he owes a much heftier debt for his past than what he's paid to date. In another 10 years I'll reevaluate his bulk of work but will never forget his past. Anyone who can defend his positions going back to the early 2000s isn't on the side of the citizenry and is on the side of globalism with a global judiciary viewpoint like he pushed. I don't have a short memory, am not easily persuaded by current hype nor am I uneducated on how these political whores stood against the people in the past.
I'm nationalist. Not a nationalist of convenience like Ted.

IMO, Big Tech are like the robber barons of the 21st century. They basically have the power to control public discourse, and aren't afraid to use it.

Here's another snippet from the Congressional hearing. Senator Hawley used the robber baron analogy, as well. I got a kick out of that.



In the above video, Senator Hawley mentions Facebook attaching "public service" messages to users' posts. That's important. Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act protects online service providers from liability regarding 3rd-party content (i.e. content posted by users). But those "public service" messages are inserted by Facebook. Which means they aren't protected by Section 230. And therefore, they're subject to legal scrutiny. Some of those messages also make questionable claims. Those "public service" messages may be an attempt to influence public opinion.

Long story short, the social media outlets are pushing their luck. And they're getting some push-back.

Blacktree Very good analogy, and good vid find. Good to see some opposition to these "activists".

This might seem off topic, but as American fights to retain its integrity against these technological "social media/justice" bastians of fascism and tyranny... here is Dave Mustaine's opinion "Dave Mustaine stated on stage in 2016 that this song represents Symphony Of Destruction part 2"

The so called most damaging spy in US history wasn't a communist; Jonathan Pollard.
Cruz was a very vocal obstructionist to nationalism during the Ron Paul era. He purposely alienated millions (probably) of people. His decision.

The counter to censorship is refusal to submit. If the censors and thought controllers want war, give them one.

Many are joining other "forums" leaving facebook and youtube. However without an audience on those new forums, the point of refusal to submit in that fashion alone is lost.

I've moved a lot to MeWe

Only thing stopping me from ditching farcebook altogether is marketplace. There is nothing else out there (yet) that makes selling stuff as simple as it does.
