Episode 427 – Not A Whistleblower

A Facebook whistleblower testifies in front of Congress.

I think the Department of Justice needs to look up what defines a terrorist.

And World War III might be on the table.

 

The Whistleblower That’s Not

There was a Facebook “whistleblower” in front to the Senate yesterday saying that Facebook needed to be heavily regulated.

Frances Haugen said that Facebook cared more about profits than the safety of the children who use Facebook, especially girls. She said:

The company’s leadership knows how to make Facebook and Instagram safer but won’t make the necessary changes because they have put their astronomical profits before people. Congressional action is needed. They won’t solve this crisis without your help.

Companies have 100% control over their algorithms, and Facebook should not get a free pass on choices it makes to prioritize growth and virality and reactiveness over public safety. They’re paying for their profits right now with our safety.

Couple of things:

  • This is not a crisis.
  • She seems more concerned about Facebook making profits.
  • Private companies should have control over their algorithms. That is a company’s intellectual property. She wants the government to control it. Why? We’ll answer that later.
  • Facebook is not selling cigarettes or crack. What do they have to do with the safety of children, especially girls?
    • Isn’t that the problem of the parents?
    • Isn’t this the same argument made against television commercials?
  • And, by the way, teenagers being insecure is a new thing?

Nothing she is saying here is new. We’ll see later that there is an ulterior motive to all this.

She said that she did not think (why anyone cares what she thinks shocks me) Facebook should be broken up but there needs to be a change to section 230. Section 230 is what makes a company not responsible for third party content while being able to control offensive content like porn. She said:

I think if we had appropriate oversight, or if we reformed Section 230 to make Facebook responsible for the consequences of their intentional ranking decisions, I think they would get rid of engagement-based ranking because it is causing teenagers to be exposed to more anorexia content. It is pulling families apart, and in places like Ethiopia, it is literally fanning ethnic violence.

Some things:

  • I think there should be changes to section 230 too. But those changes should allow me to sue Facebook when they block me.
  • This should not be something that the government forces Facebook to do something.
  • Notice, she’s talking about women and ethnic violence? How woke of her.

Some things about her entire 3 1/2 hour testimony:

  • She wants the government to regulate Facebook.
    • She thinks the algorithms should be reviewed and controlled by the government. That’s unconstitutional because it is a violation private business and intellectual property laws.
    • She thinks there should be a governmental regulator that Mark Zuckerberg has to report to.
    • One person she suggested was herself. That’s right. She’s saying the government should make her Mark Zuckerberg’s boss.
  • All her complaints stem from Left wing talking points.

Mark Zuckerberg released a 1300 word statement about this whole thing on Facebook. I won’t go over it because I already know this bitch is full of shit (we’ll go over that in a second). The only thing I remember is he said this gal is not a professional for Facebook and knows nothing about the inner workings.

I believe that.

 

What Is This Really?

Frances Haugen is not a whistleblower. She’s a Left wing plant that has put out this non-information so that Democrats can undermine and takeover Facebook, controlling what data see on Facebook. Period.

Haugen has, throughout her life, shown she is sympathetic for Leftist policies:

  • She donated to Leftist politicians like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
  • She’s donated to the “Courage to Change” Political Action Committee.
  • She complained that Google was not inclusive enough of women.
  • Frances Haugen was behind a “recent change to give users the option to filter searches to specific skin tones.
  • At Gigster, she gave a talk on how “if we don’t build with an eye towards inclusion, we can end up enshrining bias.”
  • Despite having money for political donations, in January 2020, Haugen had a $44,000 federal tax lien placed against her for unpaid taxes, according to public records reviewed by The Daily Wire. The lien was released on May 17, 2021. Those lawyers are Whistleblower Aid, a group founded by Mark Zaid, who previously represented the national security official who alleged that Donald Trump inappropriately pressed the Ukraine president on a phone call.
  • The public relations firm of former Obama aide Bill Burton, a company called Bryson Gillette helmed by a raft of Democratic operatives, is providing Haugen with “strategic communications guidance,” helping run what one Republican called “an incredibly well-orchestrated communications campaign,” the Free Beacon reported.
  • Even Mark Zuckerberg has even said she does not have the technical expertise she is conveying.

Democrats want to control how information and what information is disseminated. This gal is a tool to help them get to their desired objective.

Those People Are Terrorists?

Last year, BLM did about $3 billion in damage through rioting.

Antifa took over a section of Portland, burned down a police station and assaults citizens on a daily basis.

In Chicago, gangs have shot thousands a year.

At the border, the drug cartels are trafficking people, committing rape and murder and are importing dangerous drugs into this country.

But, do you know who is being referred to as a domestic terrorists? Conservative parents who do not want their kids being taught critical race theory or critical gender theory.

Last week, the National School Board Association sent a letter to President Biden stating:

“America’s public schools and its education leaders are under an immediate threat. The National School Boards Association respectfully asks for federal law enforcement and other assistance to deal with the growing number of threats of violence and acts of intimidation occurring across the nation.”

On Monday, the Biden administration responded.

In a letter, Merrick Garland said:

This is a lie. There have been some scuffles at board meetings but not against board members and there are very few videos of anything outside of parents yelling at the school boards (usually run by people who don’t have kids in the school districts).

I find it amazing how the Biden administration continues to demonize Americans and Conservatives. I can’t wait to hear the stories that are going to come out that some parent, who bitched at a school board, ends up being banned from a plane flight because he’s considered a terrorist.

Here’s the thing, we hear all the time now about how parents should have a say in their education. Here’s Virginia Democratic governor candidate, Terry McAuliffe saying just that:

Parents need are beginning to take the bull by the horns. Schools have become indoctrination factories and McAuliffe’s statement basically proves that. The state doesn’t want you to raise your own kids. They are considered property of the state. This is why the Left is so against school choice. Private schools don’t teach this crap. They don’t teach that all white people are racists and that you can change your gender at the drop of a hat. They don’t teach math like it’s racist. They make student learn the STEM fields, learn to read and write. In other words, the teach students to be productive citizens. This is not a goal of the public school systems and the teacher unions. It’s to make good radical activists.

Well, parents are sick of not having a say about their children’s education. And they’re speaking up. You know what they should do not. Double down. Continue doing this. Continue fighting. Make those school boards uncomfortable. Fight for their kids. Apparently, what parents were doing before has worked. The school boards are getting nervous, not for their lives like the NSBC wants you to believe, but are afraid of the dissent and protest. We need to keep it up.

World War III is Coming

Chinese state media, the Global Times, released an editorial basically saying that China is ready for war.

You may remember that China sent over 150 war planes over Taiwan, which is an independent country. China sees Taiwan as part of China and swore they would “take back” the country from the secessionists. Taiwan has been working with Australia, Japan, Briton and the United States to try to discourage China’s aggression.

The publication stated:

The peaceful atmosphere that existed in the area only a few years ago has all but disappeared, and the DPP authorities now openly refer to PLA fighters as “enemy aircraft.” They have constantly hyped up claims that they are at the forefront of the so-called democratic world to resist “authoritarian rule.” The strategic collusion between the US and Japan and the DPP authorities is becoming more audacious, and the situation across the Taiwan Straits has almost lost any room for maneuver teetering on the edge of a face-off, creating a sense of urgency that the war may be triggered at any time.

The secessionist forces on the island will never be allowed to secede Taiwan from China under whatever names or by whatever means, and, the island will not be allowed to act as an outpost of the US’ strategic containment against China.

The curtain of preparations for a comprehensive military struggle by the Chinese mainland has obviously been drawn open,” the Global Times wrote. “… it has increasingly become the new mainstream public opinion on the Chinese mainland that the mainland should make earnest preparations based on the possibility of combat.

There is no force in the world whose will to ‘defend Taiwan’ is stronger than China’s will to fight against secession and achieve reunification. To be precise, they are completely incomparable. China dares to have a life-and-death fight against any force that hinders our reunification, but no force dares or is willing to fight to the death against the world’s second largest economy, as well as a nuclear power, in order to prevent China’s reunification.

On Tuesday, when asked about it, Joe Biden said, “‘I’ve spoken with Xi about Taiwan. We agree…we’ll abide by the Taiwan agreement.”

Yeah, because China doesn’t lie, right? And can you think of a better time for China to invade? The United States isn’t going to do anything because Taiwan is an ally and we don’t help our allies.
