nevermind, neoliberalism has had it 159 Posted October 19, 2020 Do we need to reclaim the internet? After last weeks stifling of Twitter , FB and instagram, many users of these platforms are asking themselves whether they have become too big for their boots. The NYPost, the oldest established newspaper in America was prevented from publishing the Hunter Biden files it had been sent. Not that the information was new, but the fact that they have an election running was their reasoning, when in reality the Democrats can't stand that their top candidate, who might or might not last the full term, is being implemented in his sons 'deals'.

nevermind, neoliberalism has had it 159 Posted October 19, 2020 there is no thread about Biden, I'm surprised, flabbergasted, why the heck not ? Biden is not really a choice to be aware of but his past actions should be as relative to the election over there as Trumps past actions are.

The New York Post was not prevented from publishing their "story" ..... pull the other one. As Herman says even their journalists didn't want to put their name on that hatchet job - quite an objection from a journalistic staff who regularly make The Sun seem highbrow. Meanwhile Fox Business - yes Business not News - is pushing the story as hard as they can. Is the host being set up as the "useful idiot" that can be sacrificed after the election, while the real powers - Murdoch, his son, ex GOP leader Paul Ryan get away scot free?

king canary 7,607 Posted October 19, 2020 On 18/10/2020 at 01:45, Rock The Boat said: Well any one with half a brain will see that all races are not equal. Are all races equally successful? Of course not. It is also false to claim that the majority of racists are Republicans. On the contrary, all the policies of the Democrats are designed to keep BAME as supplicants to state benefits thus depriving them of the impetus to improve their situations. It's the Democrats and their descent into cruel identity politics that plays one victim group off against another. So it wouldn't be stupid to say that all Democrats are racist. Republicans, like all Conservatives, believe in equality of opportunity for all, regardless of race, colour, creed and so on. This is why the Red Wall is now Blue in the UK, and why Trump will be re-elected next month. It takes some properly galaxy brained level of self delusion to make this claim about a party ran by Donald Trump, a man who is the exact opposite of 'equality of opportunity.'

nevermind, neoliberalism has had it 159 Posted October 19, 2020 Today Archbishop John Sentamu was left out of a Lordship, because 'the Tories are trying to slim down the house of Lords'. No more fat Lords allowed, unless of the right hue that is. In black history month the man who campaigned against Idi Amin and done a great job as archbishop, is not allowed to swell the ranks of 12 black Lords. Mind, Johnsons brother Jo, appointed with Ian Botham and Lebedev Tory mega donor, could easily black up and just pretend. There are 794 old tax fed Lords in that small chamber, but this is a slap in the face of BAME. Where is Fawkes'y when you need him most?

Surfer 1,547 Posted October 19, 2020 It's right here neoliberalism in the link - it's about setting common standards for publishing in the internet age. "You’re not exempt," he told his interviewers. "[The Times] can’t write something you know to be false and be exempt from being sued. But he can" When the NYT pointed out that Section 230 is foundational to the modern Internet, Biden agreed, then continued: And it should be revoked. It should be revoked because it is not merely an internet company. It is propagating falsehoods they know to be false, and we should be setting standards not unlike the Europeans are doing relative to privacy. You guys still have editors. I’m sitting with them. Not a joke. There is no editorial impact at all on Facebook. None. None whatsoever. It’s irresponsible. It’s totally irresponsible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not just Biden's emails but Hunter Biden's lawyer sent an email to the computer repair shop asking for the computer to be returned to them. So what else was on the hard drive? Well the FBI department allegedly in possession of the computer normally investigates child pornography cases so this story is about to go off on another ugly direction, not just corruption. Joe Biden is finished. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) Sure RTB - even Fox News wouldn't carry the story because they know what Guiliani is up to - So it's Fox Business channel, the New York Post, and according to the President today, The Wall Street Journal - that Murdoch has lined up to do the dirty work.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Thursday cited low unemployment rates for African Americans and passage of a criminal justice bill providing earlier release for thousands of federal drug offenders as examples of how he’s helping the black community. Trump met with African American supporters Thursday as part of the White House commemoration of Black History Month. “I will not stop. I will not give up until we have delivered equal and abundant opportunity to every neighborhood across our land,” Trump said at a reception. Before the reception, he met with black supporters who complained that Trump was not being given enough credit, or that he had been portrayed unfairly as racist. “You attack him, you attack all of us,” said Bruce LeVell of Georgia.

Not equal in the eyes of the educational establishment for starters. 60% US Asians have at least a Batchelors degree and the highest number of Professional and Doctoral degrees. Compared with 16% US Hispanics with a degree. Obviously not equal. That's just one factor out of multitudes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
