Censorship Endgame: Silence Independent Media


We Warned You When They First Came For Alex Jones That All Independent Media Was Next...... 
By Susan Duclos



In August 2018, ANP headlined a piece with "First They Came For Infowars....... Tomorrow We Will All Be Alex Jones: Independent Media Silenced - They Are Coming For Us All Now." In that article we described how social media and big tech platforms had colluded to deplatform Alex Jones, canceling his shows, refusing him service, and wiping his presence, other than his website, off the Internet.

We and many others warned other Independent Media that everyone should be standing up for Infowars whether they liked Alex Jones or not and whether they agreed with his opinions or not, because that type of overt, coordinated censorship by silencing voices simply because they have dissenting views, is dangerous and the liberal outrage mob would eventually come for us all.

Some saw the writing on the wall and spoke up, not so much in favor of Alex Jones or Infowars, but against the censorship of opinions that don't meet the liberal group-think, others refused to stand up and speak out because they simply didn't like Jones, his style or his opinions, so to them, it was no big deal.

Until now.


Less than a year later, Google's video platform YouTube is in the midst of a widespread purge of conservative voices, by demonetization, and removing millions of videos from Independent creators. The purge is being called the #Voxadpocalypse.

Vox Media personality Carlos Maza took to Twitter to complain to YouTube about Conservative comedian Steven Crowder making fun of Maza, referring to him as an "angry little queer," a "gay Mexican," and "Mr. Lispy queer from Vox." All of which is accurate, as Maza is the typical angry liberal and a self-admitted homosexual who speaks with a lisp.

At first YouTube refused to take action against Crowder admitting he violated none of their policies, then Vox Media, along with other liberal media threw everything they had at YouTube, with Maza whining relentlessly on Twitter, until YouTube caved to the liberal online media mob and demonetized Crowder's channel.

A little about Maza, via Fox News:

Maza, an openly gay partisan activist, has himself previously used aggressive language on social media. "Milkshake them all," he wrote May 21, referring to right-wing activists. "Humiliate them at every turn. Make them dread public organizing."

Maza has also referred to someone as having a "jew face."

Maza still wasn't happy and continued to harass YouTube as shown over at Twitchy, and from there everything went to hell in a hand-basket when YouTube started mass demonetizing other channels for "wrong-think" and conservative option, as well as mass deleting videos, and along with those people were others, some not even political in nature but simply providing historical documentaries.


Browsing YouTube by searching "VoxAdpocalypse" or "YouTube Purge" brings up far more names than shown above, creating videos showing alternative platforms certain creators are uploading to in the event YouTube arbitrarily decides to purge them as well, with others simply explaining how they have now been demonetized, for no other reason than a million dollar media group and their cohorts in the press decided to go after an Independent creator, Crowder, because a thin-skinned liberal little snowflake from Vox Media got his feelings hurt when a comedian made fun of him.



THE ENDGAME IS TO SILENCE US ALL INDEPENDENT MEDIA VOICES

This is just the latest purge of conservatives (and others that got caught up in the "new" changes), but as we at ANP have documented in the past, social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, have routinely been purging accounts and content, downranking pages and posts so that they cannot even be seen by people that chose to follow those accounts, which is all leading to their ultimate endgame..... silencing all Independent Media voices.

A recent Google algorithm change has cost the Daily Mail up to 50 percent of their daily search traffic, among other websites similarly affected.

The new algorithm was launched this past Monday, and some publishers are already taking a big hit. Most notable among them is the Daily Mail, which reportedly complained about losing up to 50% of its daily search traffic as a result of this update. The SEO director of the website even seems to have taken to Google’s help forums to report the huge drop, as spotted by the blog Search Engine Roundtable. He added that they saw their “Discover traffic drop by 90%” and it “has not improved.” 

External numbers confirm that some sites have seen big drops over the past few days. A new report from Search Engine Land cites data from the SEO tool provider Sistrix, which indicated that many sites saw big drops in search visibility once the algorithm change went into effect. The Daily Mail was indeed listed on Systrix’s list of losers, along with NFL.com and Vimeo.

Every day it is another conservative voice shadow banned, blocked, hidden, downranked or have their accounts totally terminated by Silicon Valley. They come after our income by demonetizing content, after our traffic by downranking posts or even search results, after the ability to perform simple financial transactions as some banks are refusing service to a variety of Independent Media personalities.

I could go on and on in regards to the methods being used to bankrupt and silence Independent Media and conservative voices, but the point here is their endgame which is to limit the amount of new readers, followers or listeners to any opinion that does not toe the liberal mainstream media narrative, and then forcing those same liberal MSM narratives down people's throats by making it harder and harder to find an Independent voice.
