1984? Welcome to 2018

I wrote earlier that the kids from Parkland don’t have any special insight into firearms violence or the United States Constitution than any other teen. You can read it HERE.  Witnessing a shooting doesn’t qualify you as an expert in firearms and firearms policy.  At best it qualifies you as a target.

As I said in that post, the media says we must ACCEPT all of their viewpoints without questioning their immature ideas. It turns out the the media has exerted its power over dissenting ideas the other day.

Comedian Owen Benjamin, who is a funny guy by the way, was banned by both Twitter and Youtube by their tech overlords. What did he do? He gored one of the sacred cows of Parkland. Benjamin had responded back to one of David Hoggs tweety rants on gun control with the following:

Don’t you think it’s weird that you are telling grown men how to live whey you barely have pubes?

Essentially it’s the same sentiment that I expressed, but he did it in a much more comedic fashion.

Since Owen gored the sacred hog with “crimethink“, that voice needed to be silenced,.  Twitter banned him.  Oddly Youtube which is a completely different company also simultaneously banned him.

I don’t normally wear a tin foil hat, but how is it that two different corporations banned an individual when the “crimethink” was only expressed on one companies product? Can you say COLLUSION?

Why does this feel like Orwell’s 1984? We are only allowed to express “politically correct Newspeak” views and any dissenting “crimethink” views will be punished.

Welcome to 2018, the new 1984.
