Did Billionaire Thiel Save Free Speech On The Web

Extremist Libertarian billionaire Peter Thiel, one of the founders of Internet Hawaladar Pay Pal has now set himself up as a champion of free speech on the web while Internet giants Google (via YouTube), Facebook, Twitter and Microsoft. Not only did Thiel put up the cash for Hulk Hogan’s lawsuit against Gawker media, one of the worst offenders for denying opponents of its political the right to express an opinion, it turns out he has been quietly pouring millions into legal efforts against the left wing media organisations that try to suppress ideas they disapprove of, by branding people racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, and 'right wing nut jobs' guilty of 'hate speech' (as defined by Gawker contributors) for years.

Thiel describes his actions as philanthropy, a description that many of Gawker’s victims would no doubt share. The leftie nut job site made a habit of egregious, unecessary hate campaigns of everyone from former Alaska governor Sarah Palin to Conde Naste CFO David Geithner, brother of an Obama Treasury Secretary.

Naturally, 'progressive' (aka rabid neo Nazi and neo - fascist) web journalists aren’t taking news of Thiel’s secret war well. They think it’s a threat to press freedom. “Even Gawker haters should fear the strategy Peter Thiel is using to destroy Gawker” worried Vox, another progressive blogging empire whose political stances often mirrored Gawker’s. WIRED worried about chilling effects.

“As a libertarian, Thiel should support free speech,” complained Salon.

It’s a specious line of argument from supremely sensitive journalists upset that, with Gawker’s decline, the golden age of left-wing public shaming is over. They clearly think free speech is something only people who support left wing ideas have a right to, and that 'hate speech' is something only people who disagree with them can be accused of. Anybody who has been writing on the web for a while will be aware that most of the hate in fact comes from the left. Look at the hate attacks on Sarah Palin, Donald Trump, my Facebook friend Pam Geller, anyone who expresses revervations about same sex marriage or the elevation of transgender freaks to privileged caste status, or people who support immigration controls. It isn't just angry hater, it is irrational hate.

Thiel does not pose a threat to free speech, he is ending one. Only those who live in the left-wing alternative reality bubble as left wing jornalists and political activists could possibly think otherwise.

Judge Denies Attempt To Block Obama's Transfer Of Internet Oversight To UN


October 2016: In a last ditch effort to block Obama's plan to allow the US Commerce Department to hand over oversight of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) to a multi-stakeholder community - which includes the technical community, businesses, civil society and foreign governments - 4 state attorneys went to a Texas federal court alleging that the transition, in the absence of congressional approval, amounts to an illegal forfeiture of U.S. government property. Confirming once more that under Obama's Presidency the judiciary and legal system have been totally politicised, their case was thrown out on a technicality.

The Greenteeth Defending Free Speech Catalogue
Events in recent years have shown us democracy is a sham. From the USA where big money owns the political system through the European Union where the bureaucrats of the European Commission in Brussels openly express contempt for the elected governments of member states and clearly state that the faux - democratic European Parliament is irrelevant, and the wishes of member states are not considered, it is up to the bureaucrats and experts to do what is right for Europe, WE THE PEOPLE are fighting a war like none we have fought before as the political, financial and academic elites try to disempower the masses. Only through our right of Free Speech can we expose the corruption and self interest at the heart of the system and hold to account the people who would create a global, authoritarian government.

Italian Hottie Leads Anti EU Revolt In Rome's Mayoral Election

by Egbert Nobakon

Decades of corruption and chronic dysfuntion have totally destroyed the credibility of Rome’s city hall, but at last, inspired perhaps by the anti EU, anti establishment mood engulfing much of Europe (viz this week's civil unrest in France), citizens are rebelling against the cosy cronyism of the traditional biopoly and the status quo politicians who benefit from it. Voters are abandoning traditional parties in favor of the populist ‘Five Star Movement’, whose candidate is 37-year-old lawyer, Virginia Raggi.

Putting her career in law on hold to run for office, Disgusted by the decades of corruption and cronyism in Rome's civic government, Raggi has put her legal career on hold to campaign for change and a return of power to the people through a truly democratic process. She now leads the pack of established party candidates in her bid to be Rome’s first female mayor.

Raggi has certainly measured the mood of Roman citizens well, they are sick of the antic of local politicians who see public office purely as an opportunity to enrich themselves by plundering public funds as well as the embarrassment of living in a city where public services simply don't work.

“Rome has to first and foremost get back to being a normal city,” Raggi said in a recent interview with Agence France Presse, "for ordinary Romans, it is an extremely difficult place to live and that is not right for the capital of Italy."

According to opinion polls, many voters who usually support Italy’s leftist parties feel betrayed by their leaders and are supporting Raggi. The shift toward the populist and anti-establishment Five Star Movement (and the equally populist, but exclusively northern party Liga Nord) signals more than a push back against the incompetence and economic failure of Italy's centre left. It also reflects profound dissatisfaction with the status quo of Italy’s political establishment, whom many see as a spineless lackeys of the European Union, and its de facto representative, Prime Minister Matteo Renzi.

The Five Star Movement was founded in 2009 by television comedian Beppe Grillo, a Eurosceptic who has publicly defended Nigel Farage of Britain’s like-minded UKIP.

Adolf Hitler, His Part In Our Downfall

A thirty five thousand word book on the authoroitarian, undemocratic, bureaucratic dictatorship that is the European Union. Following the outburst of left wing hate politics following Boris Johnson's reminder that the EU has its roots in Hitler's Naziism, which as any intelligent person is aware is both true and very well documented. My blog colleagues and I decided to assemble this collection of our articles (with some long extracts quoted from public domain and creative commons sources) to help people misled by the REMAIN campaign into thinking the arguments are solely economic.
