Title: Why the Diner is independent.
Post by: K-Dog on Sep 20, 2023, 05:13 PM
RE ran into financial issues which did not let him keep the original Diner going. Together RE and I kept the Diner going at Global Collapse which gave us a platform for free but we were subject to censorship. Then I figured out to use my own website to host the Diner because the censorship bothered me. Here there is NO FUCKING CENSORSHIP. Unless someone decides to be a dickhead in which case RE and I will respond appropriately.
So Is Russel guilty? I really don't give a shit. There is no evidence and thus no possible adjudication. To take a side would be to be manipulated.
Russel is facing financial ruin regardless. Google has demonized and demonitized him.
Is there anything you might be ashamed of in your past? Speaking for myself the answer is a definite yes. So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

It is all smoke and mirrors. Rumble pretends to be independent. Bullshit. They all be working for the FBI.
The illusion of freedom is maintained.
But we be squirrels running in a cage.
* I like Briahna Joy Gray but she channels a moral purity that makes me gag sometimes. Shermichael Singleton reigned her in. FBI was mentioned at the end about fifty times. A great video.

I have been shadow banned on You Tube.
The Thom Hartmann show. I left a few comments in the chat and I could see them fine. But I opened a proxy from a different IP address and the browser in my proxy showed I did not exist in the Thom Hartmann chat. This caused me to get off my ass and do some real work in the house in my real life. A good thing and Thom Hartmann is probably not a good use of my time. Seriously, this is not sour grapes. A man should consider the company he keeps.
Now I am off to do my proletariat undercover work as a big box employee. Looking at the soft underbelly of retail capitalism at $22 an hour. Observing alienation up close and personal for six long hours.

Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/ FASH-iz-əm) is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement,[1][2][3] characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.[2][3]
El Trumpo checks off on just about all the criteria for this.
Far as Dickhead goes, the Oxford English dictionary covers it.
The title to this thread is "Why the Diner is independent". Could it also be that independence is easy to claim when its only 3 or 4 old farts, and we can say whatever we want...unless it is defined as dickhead of course.

Speak for yourself. I'm not an "old fart". I'm an old iconoclast. Cooler time for being insulting.

Certainly, if we had a million subscribers it would be a lot more difficult to be left relatively unmolested, with only sporadic interference. We would probably get the AP treatment. It's the principle though, not the numbers.
Far as the alternate definition of knowing it when you see it being arbitrary, if it's good enough for the SCOTUS, it's good enough for the Diner.
