Google has a problem.

 


Just a note to you field hands. I tried posting an article a few days ago and it was shot down by the gatekeepers at Google. Why? Because they thought that it was offensive. (I can assure you it was not.) 

Those of you who know me know that I do not post offensive content. (At least not anymore.) I allow offensive comments, because I believe in free speech, but my posts are never offensive. 

The problem is that there are not a lot of folks at Google who look like I do, and they do not understand that that when I write the word *****  it is not meant to be offensive. The fact is, most of the people who look (and think) like I do consider the phrase field ***** a term of endearment. They are not offended by it, and neither should anyone else.  As for the phrase house *****, it should be no more offensive than the words snob, or clueless. If I had written an article about snobbish or clueless people, I am sure that it would have been allowed.  But such is life with the new gatekeepers. They decide what is offensive and what is not.  

Maybe at some point I will be allowed to repost the article, but for now,  I am reconsidering my relationship with Google. 

Sadly, after over fifteen years and millions of page views, it might be time for a change.

Comments sometimes also disappear mysteriously, without even any note explaining what happened, such as “deleted by blog owner.” I had assumed this was the work of some sort of software algorithm that automatically deletes what it thinks constitutes offensive content because it contains forbidden keywords or something.

Note: Most of my deleted comments were not remotely hate speech or anything close to that. But the algorithm is an idiot and can’t tell the difference.

Not sure if he’s gonna be the eventual candidate but Texas is making the same mistake they made when running Beto for governor. They need to run a Latino candidate to animate that growing population there. We need the Castro brothers to run for the senate and governor. Not saying they would win but they would have the best chance of any Dem. I mean I like Colin Allred and he would do well but he’s not the right guy for that office. Another seat conceded to the Repubs.

Twitter is completely down. The cracks are starting to show, after Elon fired half the company’s employees. Did he fire the ones who keep the lights on?

His attempt to monetize blue check verification was (predictably) a crushing failure as well. And, soon, there will be additional fallout from Twitter no longer having a working verification system. He’ll probably lose more users and advertisers as a result.

Someone should set up a betting pool for he public to wager on how long it will be before Twitter is sold off for a song, or collapses.

Which is why Republicans are trying to pack the courts with wingnut loony judges:

So they can bring meritless cases and still somehow win. They want to file lawsuits to assert that the Earth is flat, and have courts of law agree with them.

It is difficult to believe, given the name of the blog/blog host???

I do not use the N-word, particularly being quite careful never to use it in print. But I would not be surprised if I could use it in comments on Blogger. It is typically okay to talk about butt-fucking and other obscene acts.

Last time I checked, Blogger was a service hosted by Googol. Field was talking about publishing a post on his own blog, right?

I have many times quoted or cited this blog in my disqussions on the popular commenting platform, Disqus, which may connect to any number of forums, (Blogger, WordPress, FourSpace ad hominem.) Invariably the algorithm places my comments into the Spam folder any time that I use the name of this blog.

Negro used to simply be a term for people of African descent anywhere in the world when I grew up in the 1960s, very similar to the way that people use "Black people," today. I could see how this would be frustrating.

Proud Boys will end up profiting off all this. Their leaders will probably serve only a couple years at most. Also, they'll spend the time writing a book about their story. Just Like Hitler did when he wrote Mein Kampf. And once released, they'll be in demand by all Conservative Media outlets.

The potential sentence is 20 years. So they may end up serving more than a couple years. But these guys aren’t brain surgeons anyway. They’re expendable. They won’t be leading any movements in any case.

The problem for democracy isn’t: How do we get rid of the low-level Nazis.

It’s: How do we get rid of the high-level Nazis — the Trumps, the DeSantises, the media propagandists, the fascist think-tank functionaries, the law-debasing lawyers.

The guys in business suits always seem to get away with it, while the foot soldiers in camo and body armor go to jail.

The walls are really beginning to close in on Fergus: half of the fake electors in Georgia have immunity deals to cooperate with Fani Willis' investigation, a Mar a Lago employee has flipped and is providing evidence that Fergus moved the documents after the subpoena, and the judge has given Fergus until Sunday to decide whether he will testify in the E Jean Carroll case.
And the Proud Boys are all convicted of seditious conspiracy (along with the Oath Keepers) after both the the prosecution and the defense blamed Fergus for the whole insurrection.

A homeless man having a mental breakdown related to his lack of food and drink, just murdered on a New York subway train, by a chokehold which lasted for 15 minutes. Shades of George Floyd's murder. The murderer, a veteran, confronted the man, then got behind him to administer the chokehold. Police, when this hold was still legal fifty years ago, usually only held a suspect in this chokehold for less than one minute, during which time most people will surrender. Apparently, Jordan Neely was resisting the chokehold for well over ten minutes. Then after death occurred, the veteran held the man in this suffocating hold fully two more minutes to ensure death.

Mayor Eric Adams warns us not to jump to conclusions. Subway passengers regularly help other passengers. Let us not assume that this was a murder while it is "still under investigation."

Manners. They really aren't mostly about salad fork protocols. Nope, they are a tool to be used to suppress the homicide rate as the population density goes up.
All of this bitching about self-censorship is from the realm of toddlers.
Manners are also about respect. Why do we avoid talking about weed and blowjobs in front of grandma, when she most likely knows as much or more about them as we do? Respect. Which is a part of the glue that holds society together.
When meatheads like that guy start believing that they don't care if there's a society left when they're through with it, they erode that glue a little. Now they are the driving force behind the Republican party, and if they are not stopped, we will be living in an authoritarian hellscape, all because they are too addicted to their propaganda to make any real sense.

Sounds like police aren't sure at this point whether it was a hate crime, or just a routine car accident.

The driver was a Latino dude, which cuts against the likelihood of a hate crime. Although some immigrant-hating Latinos weirdly do exist.

I image that Arizona GOP leaders are thanking their lucky stars for the situation she’s created. If she runs as an independent, she will end up splitting the left-of-center vote with the Democratic candidate, thereby causing the (likely) extreme right-wing Republican candidate to win, who otherwise would never have had a chance.

Brace yourselves for an onslaught of fear-mongering, racist lies from Republicans as Title 42 comes to an end.

Title 42 was the Trump-era order that basically blocked people from applying for asylum, as part of quarantining the country to keep out COVID. Of course, Trump closed the borders way too late, with regards to the much larger number of people entering on travel visas, so blocking entry of the asylum seekers didn’t actually matter. We ended up with massive infections and deaths anyway.

In any event, now that COVID levels are much lower and the pandemic is effectively over (unless some new strain evolves that sends us back into crisis mode again — fingers and toes crossed that that doesn’t happen!), there’s no longer any excuse for this, so normal asylum applications will resume, and Republicans will collectively shit their pants over this.

And then there’s the impending chaos of the debt ceiling. Either Biden is going to have to play chicken with SCOTUS by exploiting some sort of shady legal loophole in order to evade/destroy the debt ceiling, or else Republicans are probably going to cause the federal government to default on its loans and thereby crash the economy. I do not see Republicans backing down on their dumb extortion demands under Speaker of the House Marjorie Taylor Greene, and giving in to those demands would be insane and morally reprehensible.

And no, McCarthy isn’t the actual speaker. Marjorie just lets him hold the gavel so he can feel important.

Also, most reputable news sources seem to be indicating that Hunter Biden is only being investigated for some comparatively minor underpayment of his taxes and for not mentioning his drug habit when applying for a gun license.

If true, then these fairly petty offenses are hardly going to result in the trial of the century. Fox viewers have been led to believe Hunter is the new Pablo Escobar, so they are going to be very disappointed if a judge sentences him to ... probation and a fine.

And even more disappointed when it doesn't meaningfully impact Hunter's dad's election chances because nobody outside the Fox News-consuming bubble gives a crap about this nonsense.

The criminalization of “reckless” miscarriages was de facto happening in several states already (usually involving pregnant female drug users). But it will be a big deal when the first state officially decides that women who get abortions are murderers. It seems possible this is on the horizon.

Also interesting because Black Americans have always been more comfortable with Marxism than the American brand of capitalism.

I recall Black Panther leaders extolling the writings of Marx and who is Blacker than the Panthers. LOL!

This is such an insane and illogical talking point. And ironic, since the people throwing it around are mainly fascists.

1) Jews in Weimar Germany were less than 1% of the population. When the government decided to exterminate them, they had no meaningful chance to resist, guns or no guns. And, by the way, Jews DID have guns in Weimar Germany, before the Nazis took over. But like I said, that didn't help them. Their only realistic option was to flee.

2) Equally, civilian guns are no protection against tyranny here in the United States. Our government has the most powerful military in the world.

You may have an AR-15. But the feds have tanks. The feds have Apache helicopters and drones equipped with hellfire missiles. The feds have flame-throwers and white phosphorus munitions and bunker-busting bombs. If the U.S. government goes bad, you are not going to defeat them with the small arms you bought at the local gun shop. That's laughable. If they want to stomp you, you are getting stomped.

3) Most importantly, everyone knows you don't want to own guns in order to defend against tyranny anyway! YOU WANT GUNS IN ORDER TO FIGHT DEMOCRACY. You think you have a right to start shooting people if the majority of citizens happen to vote in a way you don't like. Sorry, no you fucking don't.

Maybe he will. Fascists are dumb enough to do this. Every so often, there is an outburst of Tim McVeigh-style violent assaults on the government, resulting in the self-styled “patriots” getting annihilated.

The major danger, though, isn’t that fascists overthrow the government outright, by force, which is very unlikely to succeed. The danger is that liberals let them sneak in the back door, by stealth.

The fundamental problem for everyone who cares about democracy is: How do you stick up for fundamental civil liberties that are the bedrock of a democracy, like free speech and due process, without allowing them to be abused by fascists, who hate democracy and would revoke these rights in an instant if they got hold of all the levers of power? Trump has already given us a preview of what that looks like.

And then there’s the money problem: A lot of rich people quite like the idea of fascism, and are happy to fund it.

“Colorado's state witch Boobalert filed for divorce from her pedo hubby and she blames the media for making up false stories about his past troubles.”

Except it wasn’t the media, was it? A cop decided that Bobo’s husband took his weiner out at a bowling alley, and he pleaded guilty, I believe.

Also, to be fair, he’s probably not a pedo, just a stupid drunk. Stupidity can make you do some ill-advised things, like tattooing your penis. And alcohol can also make you do some ill-advised things, like proudly showing off your penis tattoo to uninterested strangers.

This is all par for the course for Bobo’s family life, as she is America’s most rednecky congressperson.

Doug, them there dams aren't used for flood control, irrigation or power generation. Seems all they do is hold back progress of fish and recreators. Good things are worth waiting for. Sounds like this time they will be disappeared and make people happy.

Anonymous said...

“Doug, them there dams aren't used for flood control, irrigation or power generation.”

No, they are used for power generation. But the amount of power they use is relatively modest — estimated at 2% of the power generated by the local power company.

Also, the dams create one or more lakes upstream. The people who live along the lakefront aren’t happy that it will be taken away. Obviously, if you bought lakefront property, you aren’t happy when it turns into nothing-front property.

These negatives were deemed to be less important than the environmental benefits of removing the dams.

30 tons of ammonium nitrate are missing from a railcar shipped from Wyoming to California.

“30 tons of ammonium nitrate are missing from a railcar shipped from Wyoming to California.”

The story is indicating that the authorities think the ammonium nitrate gradually fell out of the rail car over the course of its travel, because somebody left a gate open.

Hmmm. I guess the rest of us have to cross our fingers and hope that’s what actually happened. Thirty tons (!) sure sounds like a hell of a lot of explosive material to just go, “Whoops, guys, it fell out.”

mike from iowa said...

I paid 26 bucks for 4 lbs of ammonium nitrate (21% nitrogen, 24% sulfur) from Dixondale Farms onion farm in Texas. It is used to boost onion growth during bulbing growth and works really well.

I figured the rail car was hijacked by white scumacysts since there a lot of militias out that way and Wyoming antelopes are incapable of opening under car doors.

“‘The hills we climb’ poem read at Biden's inauguration banned in Florida. And here we thought Republicans were for freedom. I guess we're not free to read a poem by a young Black women. WTF?”

That’s what happens when there’s an insane rule that says even a single parent’s objection is enough to cause educational materials to be banned from the curriculum. It won’t be long before there’s nothing left for the school to teach anymore, and they just close the doors and let everyone stay ignorant.

In this particular case, the one parent is a mom who alleges the poem contains “hate messages.” (Apparently, any kind of demand for political reform constitutes a hate message.)

Also, she thinks the poem was written by Oprah. And obviously, Oprah is very dangerous. :-D

PX said...

Oh they’ll have plenty to teach. They can teach that the constitution was written by Jesus, Black people enslaved white people, the north invaded the south because they hated Black people and trump is the greatest president in history. Lots to learn.

Flying Junior said...

That is indeed a powerful and well-written poem.

Up is down, wrong is right and love is hate. Obama, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are race-baiters and T**** is the least racist guy you're ever gonna meet.

I'm not surprised that DeSantis banned the poem. It represents everything that he is trying to quell and put down. He is an extreme example of denial, and at the same time a manifestation of the most cherished Klan ideals. He is every old-timer NFL fan who hated the "taking of a knee." He puts old George Wallace to shame in his unabashed and pure racist thought. He's the sheriff that gave George zimmerman a ride home the night he murdered Trayvon Martin. He's the three rednecks who chased don Ahmed Arberry.

But most of all he is a big, fucking pussy. Sorry Ronald. There is nothing you can do to kill the movement any more than you can pray away the gay. Once when our nation fought hard to defeat the fascists, publishers imprinted upon the frontispieces of the war-time books this inscription:

Words are Weapons in the War of Ideas

I had a 2-volume collection of Carl Sandburgs's "Lincoln" that had this motto emblazoned on a ribbon held in the talons of a screaming bald eagle.

DeSantis is just a big sissy. Afraid of the words of one little girl.

“Politics Girl explains the debt ceiling fight:”

In a democracy, if you want to reduce the debt, you either have to win elections, which Republicans cannot do, or you have to compromise, which Republicans do not like.

So, instead, they have assaulted democracy, once again, by resorting to a third option: extortion.

There, I explained the debt ceiling fight.

Also, Republicans do not actually care about the debt at all. Demands for debt reduction are just a pretext to block policies that protect the environment, or to inflict misery on people they hate (minorities of any kind, poor people).
