Free Speech vs. Zionism

Hard to believe this is America, but zionist official is trying to ban Pink Floyd member Roger Waters from performing in Long Island NY!

Roger Waters concert on Long Island violates anti-BDS law, lawmaker says

Need I mention that an “anti-BDS law” is COMPLETELY IN VIOLATION OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT, and that Americans can say “fuck you” to any and everything their little hearts desire? Including the apartheid terror-state Israel.

Twitter Jail

Well looky there. I guess I’m part of a club now. Some whiny, bitch-ass snowflake must have complained. Don’t know if they were on the left, right or centrist.

This is disturbing though, that unnamed accusers can interfere with your connection.

Sound the alarm…

Facebook’s ‘anti-fake news’ plan looks like effort to curb alternative media

Yet, a cursory glance at its funding sources is enough to set alarm bells ringing. They include Pierre Omidyar, George Soros and Washington’s National Endowment for Democracy, a CIA soft-power cutout. As it happens, regular RT readers will remember these three as the primary foreign backers of Ukraine’s Maidan coup in 2014.

Unfunny Bits & Ruling-Class Contempt

 

Saturday Night Live’s Lorne Michaels was recently the celeb royalty featured on Jerry Seinfeld’s car show, in an episode entitled: “Everybody likes to see the monkeys.” Now I wish I hadn’t bothered to tune in because now I have to respond.

The corporate overlord sensibility is prevalent, dripping from every annoyed grunt Michaels offers the inconsequential rabble. Instantly, I recalled how Tim Robbins and John Cusack had punched his number back in 1992. Michaels is a tool of social control, a buttress who defines what can be said to millions, and what cannot.

 

Michaels tipped his hand when Seinfeld challenged him on “alternative comics,” those “below 14th street” who don’t exist as far as SNL is concerned. The “alternative” is any alternative view to corporate whoredom, and Michaels sneers and scoffs his way through the idea that anyone but corporate-approved mindless, inconsequential distractions should matter.

Yes, he gleefully categorizes everyone and everything his show does as nothing more than monkeying around. And now we see the flaw in SNL as an institution. The boss believes in flinging poo and nothing beyond. He has no integrity on display, simply the desire to let the monkeys run amok for fun and profit. The world may burn to the ground elsewhere, but nothing relevant will appear in Lorne Michaels’ Monkey House. His show pretends to address issues, but it’s a pretense, a marketing strategy.

 

That’s why the show’s fakeness and vapidity are so entrenched and intractable. SNL cannot actually say anything meaningful; Michaels won’t allow it. It is not an “alternative,” to the rest of the corporate mainstream marketing propaganda but exists to reinforce it.

Even Michaels’ choice of restaurant reinforced his elite ruling-class view, escaping to where the coffees likely run $25 a cup, and no other diners were seen, or perhaps permitted. Michaels is a media mogul who decides for America what it can joke about each week, a propagandist, a puppeteer, a tool of social programming.

 

Anyone finding all this particularly unfunny?
