As Bosch Fawstin explained here, I was set to join him and Andrew Bernstein on Truth In Politics this afternoon at 5PM Pacific (8PM Eastern). But hours before the show, YouTube, which like the other leftist social media giants is increasingly open about its fascism and determination to silence dissidents, axed the Truth In Politics channel.
What is YouTube so afraid of? If what we say is false, refute us on the facts. If it is true, why are they so terrified that people might hear it?
Anyway, the show is still set to go on, unless YouTube gives Facebook a quick call this afternoon. Tune in on Facebook Live here.

Conservatives are migrating to Rumble.com and BitChute.com in these days of YouTube censorship of conservative voices.
Infidel says
You beat me to it. Rumble is where RS and others should set up their video conferences. OANN too went there once YouTube started censoring them!
Vann Boseman says
I am happy to see that it is worth remarking on censorship of Jihad Watch on YouTube, but there is no good reason to depend on the integrity of YouTube in any way, censorship included. There are numerous workarounds if YouTube stops working for Jihad Watch. I hope Jihad Watch will never depend on YouTube but will instead always in stride update at least recent stories with workable links when YouTube fails. I would love to see Jihad Watch exist as so well-funded that it could store all the articles and videos on it’s own servers bypassing links to other sites entirely, except to use as citations It see other sites doing this sometimes more and sometimes only occasionally.
mortimer says
People who stole an election cannot be trusted for anything.
mortimer says
RS should put all his material on Rumble so they will not be deleted. It’s a backup at the very least, but I think we should all migrate from the Big Tech Big Three social media.
tgusa says
Dependable large storage hard drives are inexpensive today. Always back up anything you want to save on a non OS drive. And back it up to at least a second just to be sure.
Vann Boseman says
The same thing you said earlier applies to this recommendation as well. “People who stole an election cannot be trusted for anything.” Even if Jihad Watch backed up its content, government could come in and confiscate it. However, I suggest that doing such a thing would be somewhat more difficult than just allowing big tech to ban content on social media, especially if it was saved to storage place/s perhaps outside the US.
latha seshadri baradwaj says
Several backups are needed. One in the bank locker & others with trusted friends’ & relatives’ houses & lockers.
Brenrod says
I am surprised JW has moot already found an alternative
Infidel says
JW ought to have accounts on Rumble, Parler and Gab, and delete its accounts on Twitter, YouTube and Facebook before those companies do it for them!

JohnTheRevelator says
Took me a while to figure out but putting myself in Youtube’s (and social media’s) shoes, I do understand their logic though I don’t agree with it.
Having power over knowledge means you can shape opinions and behaviors. If YT didn’t self-censor, it’s quite possible the state could step and force them to.
So imagine for a moment they gave us anti-Islam activists everything we wanted. That they openly spoke about Islam and its history and its dangers to the West.
The chances of millions of western people seeing those images of Muslims killing gays, Jews and other non-Muslims would definitely lead to massive hate and anger against Muslims primarily but some low-IQ racist types would start blaming mostly non-whites for the problems that only Islam causes.
In the worst case scenario, there would be chaos and Muslims, non-whites potentially being attacked in the streets, possibly even leading to a civil war.
However I believe in reality such incidents would be rare and isolated. They can’t be avoided as wackjobs will do what they’re going to do anyways.
The price of our (western population’s) deliberately enforced ignorance is far more suffering for non-Muslims at the hands of Muslims. All that the social and mainstream media have done is tied our hands while protecting a deadly virus that is going to destroy many lives.
So in the end we are much better off knowing so that we can avoid future pain/suffering even if it means some innocents on both sides might get hurt and that can’t be avoided anyways. So this is a huge mistake that the ‘power elites’ are making and we’re going to pay for it one way or another.
gravenimage says
John, your claims that if people knew that Islam is violent that Infidels would be attacking Muslims and other minorities (never mind that Islam is *not* a race) is not born out. Some people doe indeed know that Islam is violent, and they are not out assaulting Muslims.
How often have we heard this? That Islam’s being violent is not a real danger, but that the phantom backlash of Anti-Jihadists *is*. (Never mind that Robert Spencer has *never* advocted violence–it is somehow all his fault, and not the fault of preaching Jihad terror).
In reality, it is not civilized Infidels attacking people in the streets–that would be pious Muslims.
JohnTheRevelator says
Graven it appears you didn’t read my whole post. I was speculating on what social media sites like Youtube were thinking in the worst case scenario.
They think they’re keeping a lid on raging westerners/infidels who might go out and wantonly cause violence and harm to Muslims if they learned the real ugly truth about Islam, which is why they’re censoring negative information about Muslims.
If you continued to read my post later, I felt that such incidents would be rare and they would happen anyways since there are nuts on both sides.
I also felt that we’re basically shooting ourselves in the foot by censoring information that is vital to our survival. If we don’t recognize Islam as a fascist totalitarian theocratic ideology that seeks our destruction, how can we mount any resistance and save our way of life, esp. our freedom?
So obviously I fully support freedom of speech and feel that all media are wrong to hide this information from the population.
The reason people like Robert and his supporters (like us) get blamed is because of the false narrative of Islamophobia and racism. Our enemies have cleverly managed to convince Joe Average that to speak honestly about the teachings of Islam including incitement to hate and wage war against us non-Muslims is ‘hate speech.’
Obviously that is an egregious ad hominem fallacy that we need to keep vigorously fighting back against. We can try to couch this in as nice words as we like but the reality is that this is a real war, which means there will be winners and losers, and in the spirit of Ronald Reagan, I vote that we win and they lose.
gravenimage says
I *did* read your entire post, John–as well as your reply here.
Western Infidels are generally civilized people–again, the idea that they represent a threat to all Muslims–or even random people of color (even though Islam is not a single ethnicity) is something that is simply not borne out.
Anti-Jihadists like Robert Spencer are not preaching violence–in fact, he very specifically does not advocate violence. Calling out the violence of others is not itself violence.
I do realize that you are saying that we should support free speech regardless, and I appreciate that–and very much agree.
But–with respect–I still think that pointing to civilized Infidels as the threat is misguided, nor do I think that this YouTube and other platforms are censoring Anti-Jihadists out of a reasonable concern over the ‘filthy Infidels’ harming innocent Muslims. This is largely a phantom issue.
And they clearly don’t have concerns over Muslims harming the Kafir, which is a genuine concern, yet Jihadists have a large continuing presense on social media preaching Jihad terror.
JohnTheRevelator says
Graven-with respect also, as you’ve been very appreciative of my posts and I’ve felt the same about yours, so I’m not arguing with you here just clarifying.
“the idea that (western infidels) represent a threat to all Muslims…is simply not borne out.”
Where did *I* claim that we infidels were a threat to Muslims? Once again, I was speculating on social media’s false assumptions motivating their censorship.
I get the sense that you’re trying to “correct” my logic but again, I am not making that assertion, my point is that this is likely the rationale the media.
“Anti-Jihadists like Robert Spencer are not preaching violence–Calling out the violence of others is not itself violence.”
Did I say anywhere that Robert was preaching violence? Or are you trying to say that the media is falsely making that assumption? It’d be good if you could indicate who you were referring to in your comment since you’re making general statements without much context.
You’re really preaching to the choir here as I’ve pointed out in several past posts that the media is shooting the messenger by foolishly blaming those who speaking honestly about the incitement of hate/violence in Islam and falsely blaming people like Robert (or Tommy Robinson) or those of us in the anti-Islam movement.
“with respect–I still think that pointing to civilized Infidels as the threat is misguided…”
Since you said ‘with respect’ clearly you’re once again, incorrectly assuming that I hold this view, which I do not. This is why I said that you needed to re-read my post.
We both agree that infidels are largely a non-threat to Muslims. Perhaps you think the threat is zero, which is where I’ll differ slightly.
There will most certainly be some attacks like the Christchurch example or that innocent Sikh man who was killed after 9/11 because some white racists wrongly thought he was a Muslim.
It is Leftists and the media who have overblown the potential for westerners attacking Muslims. Note what I said in my original post: However I believe in reality such incidents would be rare and isolated.
I’m sure we’re largely in agreement here, except maybe on the point above. And yes the Leftist media doesn’t give a rats azz about the safety of non-Muslims, which is why they were pushing to let millions of Muslim terrorists, rapists and criminals posing as refugees enter western countries.
It’s also why they care nothing for the persecution of Christians, Atheists and other non-Muslims in Islamic countries. Unfortunately the Left is demonstrating through its behavior, that they are allies of Muslims and enemies of us non-Muslims and western civilization.
They’re essentially enemy collaborators and esp. in a time of war this is treason. Hopefully we’ll get anti-Islamic leaders in power and hold them to account.

Rob R (Brit stuck in Britainistan) says
So, the Big Tech maggots do actually track you then… ?
Have you thought about relocating to somewhere like France or Hungary etc., as I suggested in a previous comment (I don’t know if you ever read it or not. I hope you don’t think all us commenters are “stupid” or embarrassing or repetitive, etc. I noticed you removed the number of comments per article from the display on the front page).
I know not every piece of news out of France is good but it’s the only country that has a president who claimed recently to be declaring war on radical Islam.
Meanwhile Josef Biden and his overlings in the tech sector are carrying out an undeclared and ruthless war against you.
(Im sure you could get an assistant to help you with the language barrier)
p.s. Hi maggots!

Rob, Anti-Jihadists like Marine Le Pen are being prosecuted for speaking the truth about Islam in France–I don’t think this would be a better place than the US, with its still existing First Amendment protections.

If anyone is interested in finding out just how far the rabbit hole goes… Try this, for starters: Google ‘Happy White Women’ and then ‘White European Inventors’… Batten down the hatches and stand by for the results….
Just think of the twisted minds at GooLog that would change the algorithm to generate such results….
James Lincoln says
Kagman,
I typed in “Happy White Women” and searched images in:
1. Google.
2. Bing.
3. Duck Duck Go.
Google was the most “woked”.
Another reason why I use Duck Duck Go…

In the past 2 years, YouTube has terminated over 17,000 Creator accounts and hundreds of thousands of regular accounts where commenters fail to meet their politically correct standards.
These are exceedingly dangerous times.

gregbeetham says
Actually this could backfire and turn out to be a good thing. Permitting Muslims to commit self harm in public exposes Islam to critical examination that it might not otherwise get, they say things that they think are normal but are actually disgusting to our moral sensibilities so YouTube are helping disgusting Muslims shoot themselves in the foot.

The CA twit is suing Texas…maybe everyone knows that…because the AG, Paxton, asked him some questions and he didn’t want to answer…so he’s suing instead.
Mr. Paxton just wanted some answers, but the twit may have given more than he wanted to, as in the suit he said it was “editorial decisions” that made him delete Mr. Trump and others with whom he disagrees.
The twit’s site, it’s platform, or whatever it is called, has “protections” built in that make it unlike newspapers, and other “publishers”…but if they are choosing to be “editors” then they lose that protection.
There may be light at the end of the tunnel regarding Freedom of Expression…Freedom of Speech that is in opposition to youtube, twit, fb, amazon, …

Dumb luck. Large amounts of money acquired that way makes the not too bright ever dumber. They have so much money they don’t have to think hard about anything anymore. That is the reason we should never listen to what they say and be suspicious of anything they do.
gregbeetham says
AFAIK the big three social medias get lots of threats coming in from members of the religion of peace in Pakistan and other cult of Satan countries that they should ensure there is no criticism of Islam on their platforms…or else.
Following on from that maybe YouTube and MSM get their knickers in a knot because they go to such trouble to disassociate Muslims from murderous Jihad in the public perception and cultivate the false Obama religion of peace narrative in compliance with the directives from Pakistan etc. and then Robert Spencer and Co. come along and screw up their good work with the facts.
tgusa says
It was GWB that coined the phrase, religion of peace. BHO carried on with that statement. To be fair honest and truthful we have to put the blame where it rightly should be put.
gregbeetham says
Yes I agree, although GWB was a bit of a dill and BHO should have known better but promoted the falsehood to a much greater extent and even subverted the security apparatus so it ceased to function effectively, or to put it in perspective started working in favour of enemies of the USA, its values, constitution and its people, I would class BHO as a traitor. I don’t think GWB was a traitor.
gravenimage says
tgusa, “religion of peace” was coined by a Taqiyya-spewing Muslim in a magazine articele in India in the 1930s. But sadly it probably was President Bush who popularlized this dishonest whitewash of Islam.
