Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Two-Facebook: Claiming neutrality while punishing the Right

Apr 25, 2018 8:00 pm By Bosch Fawstin

Editor-in-Chief of Frontpage Magazine, Jamie Glazov, was recently threatened with violence by a Muslim on Facebook, and the only one who paid a price for that threat was Jamie, after he posted about it. Facebook ended up suspending him for a week. That’s the basis of my accompanying cartoon. This unfair, unwarranted punishment of those on the Right is happening more and more these days by a platform that pretends to be neutral, but is dominated by hardcore leftist Islamophiles.

I’ve had my own trouble with Facebook. Right after the Garland attack, where Jihadists planned to murder over two hundred of us at the Mohammad Art Exhibit event, Facebook removed me from their platform. It was only after a healthy online protest against my removal that I was reinstated. I’ve enjoyed social media, it’s helped me connect with like-minded individuals around the world, and it’s helped me get my work out there in a way I haven’t before. But it’s becoming increasingly clear that, despite their protestations, they have a secret policy of limiting the reach of those who criticize the Left and Islam.

If Facebook and Twitter were transparent from the outset that they would censor non-leftists and Islam critics, they wouldn’t be as big as they are. But now that they’re massive, the purge is here. But instead of outright removing accounts they find troublesome from their leftist perspective, they secretly limit their reach. Facebook has crippled the accounts of Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer, limiting their reach to a fraction of what it used to be. Facebook and Twitter are private companies who can do what they want, and who can alienate whoever they want, but they’re underhanded about it and they belie their terms of service, which is supposedly against discrimination. That’s a big reason why their reputations are eroding.

    I would NEVER trust facebook who is manipulating the ‘right’ view from their fb media. Why??? It boils down to hate vs love, hate being the left and love being the right. It doesn’t have to be this way, you will still make money without the unlawful manipulation of your accounts. To be so intelligent, you are really dumb.

    Try being fair, surely you can handle that.

      This is dreadful! Jamie Glazov is one of he sweetest, gentlest people you will ever come across. Yes, he is opposed to the terrible things being done by Muslims, but there isn’t a micron of hate in his heart.

        Jamie Glazov is a real man who sees how MUSLIMS and the LEFT ARE UNITED IN HATE.

        He is CLEAR-SIGHTED on the similarities between Islam and Communism.

      Facebook is moving more and more to the left…. but they are not the only ones…I have seen so many groups doing this. MSN is one of them there are many others, from elected officials to appointed officials…It seems that many folks have forgotten what America was created for….For the people…not individuals or groups…..
      What has happened to patriotism in America?

      For instance: Just look what is happening in our CONGRESS. Nothing can get done….and the government as a whole, Instead of admitting that we have a Newly elected president and that’s done….investigations..leaks….voting “against”, just for party lines not for America….fighting amongst parties for no good reason…..Hold overs from previous administration still working for previous administration…..I’m sure there are so many other “NEGATIVE AMERICA” individuals and groups out there within and without the government that all we JW posters could spend all our time in listing them.
      Folks this is my country and I want to help save it..not only from ourselves but from without also..Just look at one “without” groups and that is Islamist…I don’t know how many Muslim groups are out there, Mr. Spencer has mentioned them before, but who are these groups working for??America, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Americans all or are they just working to undermine everything America stands for…..America don’t need people who want to make America a Shari Law nation….I love my America but don’t love what’s happening to it.
      “We the people” think of that..we the people…we are millions strong are we going to let our country be dragged down by the few?

    The only thing that will come from his blathering, BS responses is….nothing. Nothing other than to have made people like me delete their face book accounts. The only places on earth that are actually doing something tangible with this scumbag fascist are some of the European Governments. Face book should not be allowed to censor, PERIOD. If they continue to do so, then they should be shut down for being the dictatorial fascists that they are.

      The real problem is that their minds have been addled by an education system based on feel-good liberalism which believes their views are omnipotent and anyone disagreeing with them are neanderthal knuckle draggers. Our western societies have created bloated nanny state govts with public self-servants and bureaucrats desperate to justify their pathetic existence. For example one of the public service unionists justified their demands for higher wages by saying that this will raise the tide so that others in the private sector will also get more money and benefits. That is how they believe the economy works – the public sector is the the creator of wealth and opportunities. It is beyond their comprehension that they are actually a cost of doing business the private sector has to support and that the high cost of the nanny state they regale in has nothing to do with the reality of burdensome over-taxation and govt ineptitude destroying economic opportunities for the entire economy. “I’m all right Jack” so screw you is their real philosophy of greed – welcome to Greece. Lesson of Greece just can’t be learned by these nanny state justifiers.

    Islamophilia is not just a problem limited to the “Left”, there plenty of people in the “Centre” and “Right” who are Islamophilic. For example; look at both Tony Blair, GW Bush or give an Australian example our current Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.

    I attribute Islamophilia to political correctness and a reaction Christianity which has occurred across the West during the latter half of the 20th century and into the 21st. You see in Australia increasing hostility towards Christianity (especially the traditional varities) while at the same time these people who express such hostility to Christianity are often Islamophilic.

  9. Not Dumb Enough says

    Apr 25, 2018 at 11:43 pm

    Christianity as an entity is a threat to Islam. Christianity has not provoked any slaughter, has not riled any feathers, and has not raised any anti anything, Christians have not been bold enough to fight for what is right, and have been attacked as the troublemaker when it’s the people who find that any good is a threat to their Party days. People don’t like having guilt of sin. WEven Muslims hate that they succumb to sin so easily that they had to invent a Prophet named Muhammad 300 years after he died, and left no written text of any so-called verses of Muhammad. All hearsay and irrelevant to say that this mortal man could get away with self created prophet deity, that made no miracles, made no claims of being above god, and never had any real importance until the conquests started and millions died. Christians did not force Christianity on any other religion but instead, spread the word of Jesus’s salvation and people felt compelled to be Christian. Any so-called religion that needs to place laws and threats of death or submission is not and can not be a true word of any creator. The Quran states that Allah is a great deceiver, but the Bible states that Satan is the Great deceiver. Now who do you believe? You have to follow the truth of the words. Fact…Allah is A Great Deceiver = Satan is THE Great deceiver. What don’t you understand about Truth and Lies? I’ll believe both and come to the only conclusion that Islam is all LIES, and the Bible is telling the truth by the Qurans own admission. The Quran promotes Lying and deceit, and to kill anyone who comes to this conclusion.

      The koran was completely writen down before he die. So stop making thing up. Than Islamoprobic was going around say 1st chapter and 36 verse said muslim are to rape christian woman. One problem someone point out to him was the 1st chapter is only 7 verse long.

      • gravenimage says

        May 7, 2018 at 6:50 pm

        What is “Brian hoff”–really, “DefenderofIslam”–babbling about now?

        The Qur’an is full of exhortations to rape Inifidel women, such as Qur’an 4:24:

        “And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess….”

        Those the “right hand possesses” are women kidnapped in Jihad, as “Brian hoff” well knows. The “Prophet” himself kidnapped and raped women.

        There are many other such verses.

        This is why pious Muslims like ISIS and Boko Haram are kidnapping and raping Christian and other Infidel women to this day.

    The American Constitution promises freedom of speech. This means that government is not allowed to punish people for their words. Government hates that restriction, and willingly turns over the job of punishing thoughts to private enterprise, which is eager and willing to do the job of Gestapo/KGB/Stasi/Securitate/Big Brother.

    Does it matter who takes away your right to free speech? If it’s government or free enterprise? The end result is the same. There is no freedom of speech in the USA at the present time.

    • Peter says

      Apr 26, 2018 at 8:17 am

      There is no free speech if there is no public square. Today’s public square is the electronic and print media, not the town square. Universities restrict free speech to zones, which reflects their lack of credibility of claiming to be “universities.”

      • Peter says

        Apr 26, 2018 at 8:20 am

        There is also no freedom of the press if the press is monolithic, suffers from (neo-Marxist) group think, and is incapable of objective thought and communication, as is largely the case throughout the West; e.g., Germany’s media is 75% Red-Green, and only about 7% of American journalists are Republicans. When you read between the lines and hear the words used, you often want to throw up.

    Unless you get off tending a strawberry patch on Farmville there is absolutely no need for FB.

    The platform is a wasteland. If you want to be my “friend” drop me an email or pick up the phone. I have no desire to lick your ego, fluff your narcissism, read your tripe or otherwise indulge your attention-whoring profile.

    FB mines your data and violates your privacy. FB is a portal for bullying, harassment, stalking, drug trafficking, cybersex, and numerous other social ills.

    Employers will monitor your FB activity. Your resume…that sheet of paper that highlights your education, experience, credentials, skills and references is worthless.

    Stay off FB. If you’re hooked, get help.

    Re: “Facebook and Twitter are private companies who can do what they want, and who can alienate whoever they want”…!

    Not quite!

    People say the American Constitution’s First Amendment only protects individual citizens (and corporations) from the government, but that private companies can enforce whatever rules they want to within their own domains.

    But … hey, guess what! NOT when their rules amount to CRIMES (say, of slander)!

    See, whenever FASCBOOK (And Twatter and ScrewYouRube, and GO-OGLE et al) humiliates people in public by censoring them and posting (slanderous, libelous) warnings, they are actually breaking the LAW.

    Slander (and it’s written form, libel) are sub-categories of criminal FRAUD.

    Further, if (as can be easily demonstrated in these cases) they committed their fraudulent, defamatory slanders and libels as part of an orchestrated conspiracy to suppress and destroy evidence of the crimes of the holy-mobster “muslim” gang members of the world’s oldest and largest ongoing extortion racket and crime-syndicate (“ISLAM”) then they are also guilty of endorsing those same crimes (many of which amount to mass-murders, if not to actual genocide) and since islam itself is openly hostile to any and all sovereign nations (which it regards as temporary and man-made false idols, all of which are to be eventually destroyed and replaced with their own one-world muslim Ummah Nation, to be ruled over by their global theocratic caliphate government) it is also a clear case of sedition and treason, of aiding and abetting an existential threat to the United States and Western world in general.

    Zuckerturd and his globalist minions should be arrested indicted tried convicted jailed and possibly executed for their treason to rationality and civilization and their ongoing crimes against humanity.

    Beyond that, Twitter et al’s lately-revealed “shadow-banning” practices really only amount to cases of de-monetizing “reverse” defamation, and so should be subject to massive penalties in class-action lawsuits as well.
