Andy Ngo Thrown Off PayPal, Other Payment Platforms May Follow

/1 Comment/in /by

One of the most daring and honest journalists in America is Andy Ngo. Either filming himself or aggregating video clips from his network of mostly clandestine collaborators, Ngo does the work mainstream journalists ignore either out of fear or ideological bias. If you watched Ngo’s videos over the past several months, you would know, without any doubt, that America’s mainstream “journalists” were biased cowards, unwilling to report what’s really happening in American cities because they thought it might harm the Biden campaign.

For his trouble, Ngo has been assaulted and demonized. But his level headed attention to facts and evidence, and nothing else, has meant he has survived online. Suppressed and demonetized, he nonetheless persists on all major platforms.

Until now. Yielding to pressure from the Left, PayPal has thrown Ngo off their payment platform. As he tweeted earlier today, pressure is building to get Ngo off of Patreon and SubscribeStar as well.

Expect to see this tactic amplified in the coming months and years, especially if Biden becomes president. The big tech platforms already act with near impunity, but with their allies running the federal executive branch, they’ll have no inhibitions whatsoever.

When people are deplatformed from YouTube, for example, they go to BitChute or Rumble or elsewhere, typically losing about 90 percent of their viewers. Most of them never recover more than a fraction of their former audience, and lose almost all access to new viewers. And as long as they survive on a major platform like YouTube, they are demonetized. But taking away the ability of an online content provider to collect donations on the payment platforms, to-date, has been relatively infrequent.

That’s changing fast. In the wave of deplatformings immediately prior to the election – mostly done to stop “Q conspiracy” websites (translation: people who were posting videos documenting the Biden laptop scandal and other embarrassments to the anti-Trump establishment) – several of those who were thrown off YouTube also had their bank accounts and payment platforms cancelled. In this video, of the victims, Polly St. George (aka “Amazing Polly“), explains how this happened to her.

One of the first victims of deplatforming, Henrik Palmgren and Lana Lokteff (aka “Red Ice TV“), not only were thrown off YouTube and other major platforms, and were not only thrown off all donation platforms, but they were added to the so-called “MATCH List.” MATCH stands for “Member Alert To Control High-risk merchants.”  It’s a list, shared by all banks, of what used to be called the “Terminated Merchant File.” If you get added to this list, it is almost impossible to open or maintain a credit card account with any bank.

People may criticize any of these content providers, but understand what’s happening. These “undesirables” are not merely being silenced, they are being completely destroyed economically. The MATCH list used to be reserved for terrorists and drug cartels. Now it’s being used to silence free speech.

Fraudulent Claims of Fraud Doesn’t Mean There’s No Fraud

/in /by

By now anyone trying to find evidence of election fraud has uncovered cases where the allegations were false. But sort of like the Clinton Body Count, while it may all just be a bunch of hooey, there is too much evidence for anyone to dismiss it all as unfounded without thought or examination. The sources of election irregularities summarized here are listed in approximate order of how far down the rabbit hole they reside, and hence, how much they are either suppressed or outright banned on the major online platforms.

All of these sources put forward interesting claims. It is our right to see them, and decide for ourselves what to believe.

We’ll start with our own partners, the editors at American Greatness. Their lineup of articles currently dealing with post-election irregularities are too numerous to list, and all of them are good. Find them on the AG home page, and in particular, read “Let’s Take Stock of Where We Are,” by the incomparable Michael Anton.

Joining American Greatness as one of those “mainstream adjacent” sources that are too credible to be banned, but nonetheless putting forward material you can’t find anywhere in the sanitized, properly housebroken media, would be The American Mind. Much of their recent material also covers election irregularities, and again our top recommendation is another very recent article by Michael Anton entitled “Game on for the Coup.” Anton, who has been predicting a coup for several months, achieved fame in 2016 with his essay “The Flight 93 Election,” where he compared the American people to passengers on the ill fated Flight 93 back on 9/11/2001, where they faced a terrible choice: either try to gain control of the cockpit (elect Trump) and possibly survive, or do nothing (elect Clinton) and face certain death. Anton, at the time, had to write that essay anonymously. We have come a long way.

To start down the rabbit hole, read everything on the new website Revolver, a news aggregator that is better than Drudge was when Drudge was at its best. In particular, read “The Steal Is On. What Republicans Must Do Next To Guarantee Victory.” Written on November 4, details in this article have been overtaken by events, but the agenda laid out by the editors bears close review.

To dive well into the rabbit hole, an article appearing on the infamous media empire known as Infowars asks a rather pertinent question “Why Does Biden Have So Many More Votes Than Democrat Senators in Swing States?” And, we might add, not in states unless they’re swing states. Infowars can be hyperbolic at times, but they offer rare nuggets of valuable truth between the lines of hogwash, and in this article the author has their facts straight.

At the bottom of the rabbit hole – not that this list is even remotely complete – find the enigmatic BitChute channel “TruthVideos1984.” We recommend watching three videos on this channel which is a video aggregator. One particularly intriguing video claims that Trump supporters in the government “watermarked every ballot with a QFS blockchain encryption code,” which will allow them to expose any counterfeit ballots. Another is a live interview with a poll watcher who claims ballots have been turned in with no names on them. Finally, on a video originally posted by Veritas, a U.S. postal worker admits they were instructed to collect ballots after the election cutoff so they could be backdated.

President Trump may or may not prevail in his bid for reelection. And if he is not reelected, we will never know to what extent his loss was due to fraud. There is no question America’s system of voting is rife with opportunities to commit fraud. It is ludicrous to believe fraud is not taking place, and shameful for the media and online communications gatekeepers to suppress any discussion of possible fraud. This problem, as the president has said repeatedly, is much bigger than this election.

The Red Elephant Compiles a List of Channels Banned by YouTube

/in /by

Vincent James O’Connor, aka, the Red Elephant, was banished from YouTube after accumulating over 300,000 subscribers. One of the last survivors of the first wave of terminations, O’Connor lasted until August 2020. He survives on Parler, BitChute, DLive, Gab, and Telegram. To-date, his presence on fundraising platforms also remains intact.

One of the values of watching Red Videos is O’Connor’s propensity to dig up inconvenient facts from primary sources. His work relies on data from the FBI, the DOJ, the U.S. Census Bureau, not on quotes from other journalists. For this reason, whatever opinions O’Connor may also share about current events, his facts have integrity. Often they can’t easily be found anywhere else.

A good example of this is an article posted on the Red Elephants entitled “Why Black Criminality is a Much Bigger Problem Than Racism or Police Brutality.” A title like that is enough to alarm the censors, but the facts in the article are what should matter. These are the same facts that are also cited by Black conservatives. O’Connor, for his part, has reached out to Black conservatives, and has suggested they might share many common political goals – such as support for America’s 45th president.

The most recent wave of banishments from YouTube has been hard to track. If you were to count every one of the channels that YouTube turned off, including the smallest ones, there would be thousands of casualties. O’Connor maintains a list of many of the most prominent victims of YouTube. This list is updated regularly, included on the list are many that were terminated in earlier waves.

O’Connor’s list is incomplete, but it’s one of the best we can find. Many of the people he has noted do not include links. Most of these people are already in our Winston84 directory, some of the remaining ones will be added.

We will say it again: The cure – censorship – is worse than the alleged disease – speech that is unwelcome to some people.

“America’s Frontline Doctors” Should Not Be Censored

/3 Comments/in /by

On July 27, a video that allegedly made “false coronavirus claims” was taken down by Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, but not before nearly 20 million people watched it.

The people in that video, led by Dr. Simone Gold, have formed a group called “America’s Frontline Doctors,” with a mission to “counter the massive disinformation campaign regarding the pandemic.” They have reestablished an online presence, on multiple platforms, although it is hard to find. Hence we have added their profile to the Winston84 directory.

The debate over the efficacy of Hydroxychlorquine has now completely disappeared from mainstream discussion. But Gold’s group, all of them MDs, maintain it can be used, especially in the early stages, to effectively treat COVID-19.

The even bigger question however is why medical doctors are, for what may be the first time in history, being harassed for prescribing HCQ, and being silenced for suggesting publicly that it has theraputic value in certain situations? And perhaps even bigger than that – why are Americans being trained to relinquish their constitutional rights whenever a “health emergency” is declared?

Which brings us to another profile we’ve just added, Debbie Georgatos, host of “America Can We Talk.” In a video released on 10/27, Georgato had this to say:

“The Left is planting the seed in the minds of the American people that a health threat legitimizes and justifies taking away the freedom of the people… when there’s a crisis, it is time to surrender our liberty.”

Watch out. Because COVID-19, and the next pandemic, and genuine medical issues, are not the only sources anymore of what the Left markets as a “health crisis.” Also being developed as a crisis of public health are the “right to housing,” systemic racism, and the climate emergency.

We’re going to learn a lot and endure a lot as we make our way through the COVID-19 pandemic. But one lesson we must not forget, is that the Left is attempting to medicalize issues of public policy that have nothing to do with medicine. Don’t let them.

W84 Adds Praying Medic, The High Wire, Border Hawk, and Pardon My American

/in /by

Thanks to all who responded to the formal launch of our partnership with American Greatness over the weekend. Along with correcting and enhancing links on our existing records (now up to 299), we added four new ones.

Just added, and barely ahead of the censors, is the Praying Medic, already banned from YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram, but still hanging on to 417,000 followers on Twitter. Praying Medic, authored by Dave Hayes, is a member of the Q collective, which explains the banishments. Remember: Q is not about what the media claims. On a wide range of sensitive topics, Q is a hive mind of investigators uncovering information the media will not report on. Their right to speak must be defended.

Not as closely embroiled with Q (there is no clear delineation) but equally adept at uncovering news you will never see on traditional media is the insouciant trio, Dave, Greg, and Chris, “a podcast of patriots from the Northwest,” producing under the label “Pardon My American” on multiple platforms.

If you want to hear the other side of the debate over vaccination, as well as suppressed medical news relating to COVID-19, follow “The High Wire” with Del Bigtree.

Probably the most mainstream of the four newcomers is Border Hawk, which is sort of like Revolver, but the anthology of links they update daily focuses on one thing: Immigration. Border Hawk’s material is unlikely to ever get banned, but you’ll find valuable links there that won’t come up easily on the search engines. By the way, Revolver is what Drudge used to be and then some. Visit there regularly.

Along with many suggestions over the past few days, we’ve already heard from people who could not find a banned content producer, but have now found them again here, via the links we’ve posted to their new platforms. That’s why we’re doing this.

Malcolm Flex Explains How AOC Politicized Twitch

/in /by

Malcolm Flex, with 56,000 Twitter followers, has recently produced a must-watch video. His tweet accompanying this video says “Don’t underestimate today’s political power players just because they aren’t playing the same game as you.”

Flex leads off by saying “The paradigm is switching right now and it is switching so fast.” As an example he is referring to the new power of the Twitch platform as a political influencer, stating “Twitch is a hive for young minds, for young, unshapen, very bored minds.” In particular, he is referring to Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’s recent debut appearance as a player on Twitch, an appearance that attracted over 430,000 online participants.

In a 20 minute dialogue that should be required watching for every anti-socialist politician, strategist, and influencer in America, Flex explains how the anti-socialist movement is not recruiting the right young talent. He surveys the young players, from Chandler Crump to Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens, and explains that while they are saying the right things, they lack the charisma to attract an army. He acknowledges the magnetism of the Hodge Twins, but reminds us that Keith and Kevin Hodge, at age 45, are a generation removed from the future voters that populate, for example, the Twitchosphere.

Displaying a knowledge of Twitch that shouldn’t, but does elude most political strategists, Flex marvels at the fact that AOC used Twitch not as a broadcaster, but as a player, to build a “simp army” (look it up – and don’t laugh, because they’ll all be voting in 2028). More generally, he observes that nobody holds a candle to AOC when it comes to branding.

As Flex warns, Twitch has now realized they can make money with political content. What if they go in the same direction as the other big platforms and censor or deboost conservatives? Twitch is owned by Amazon, so if they do, it should come as no surprise.

Malcolm Flex is a powerful new voice in anti-socialist politics.

YouTube Terminates Mouthy Buddha With 10 Million Subscribers

/in /by

The wave of channel bans in the past two weeks is one of the biggest yet. You may not have heard of “Mouthy Buddha,” but until last week, he had over 10 million subscribers on YouTube. Ten Million. And just like that, he was gone. Mouthy Buddha’s backup channel, which can be found on BitChute, only has 10,000 subscribers. With literally no more than a keystroke, YouTube has destroyed years of work and reduced the reach of Mouthy Buddha to one one-thousandth of what it had been.

Destroying a channel with 10 million subscribers is not done lightly. What did it take to build an audience that big? And why would YouTube determine the upside to further alienating ten million people to exceed the downside? What was Mouthy Buddha, whose real name is John Canales, doing that was so dangerous?

On the surface, nothing. A scan of his videos suggests that Canales is just another content provider looking for the craziest theories and amplifying them. He is the online equivalent of tabloids that flew off the shelves in supermarket aisles back in the days of print. Watch out for 5G, beware of fluoride, UFOs are real, and you really should learn more about your pineal gland. So what?

But there is a danger. Canales, along with thousands of other online content producers, is part of a hive mind for which no theory is too outlandish to investigate. And among the lemons are scattered embarrassing gems. No, maybe there isn’t a Satanic cult that controls the Democratic Party and eats babies (but don’t laugh, evil exists), but the real story, for example, of Jeffrey Epstein’s death – and all the people he could have implicated – has never been told.

Watch this video on pedophilia, likely the one that got Canales banned from YouTube. Decide for yourself.

The so-called Q Anon movement, of which Mouthy Buddha might be considered a peripheral member, is a threat because they are relentlessly looking for evidence to expose evil, treason, corruption, and, yes, conspiracies.

It is interesting to wonder why Google, which owns YouTube, would fail to allow the hive mind to operate, and let everyone – instead of their own biased, agenda driven “fact checkers” – determine what to believe, and what to dismiss.

YouTube Bans X22 Report, Red Pill, Q News Corner, and others

/3 Comments/in /by

In the last few days YouTube has just banned, according to some reports, over 30 more channels. The Winston84 website was built to help people still find these content providers as they are forced to migrate to other platforms. Here are our profiles for some of the banned channels, providing links to the other places their work can be found:

Destroying the Illusion, Lori Colley, Red Pill 78, SGTreport, X22 Report, Q News Corner.

There are many more. Combined, the YouTube videos posted by these 30 or so channels amassed hundreds of millions of views by tens of millions of viewers. Every one of those viewers has been slapped in the face today. How does this help YouTube, or the corporate media they’ve become part of?

What better way to lend credence to the latest conspiracy theory, which claims Osama Bin Laden was not killed in Pakistan? If you want to hear the arguments favoring this new story, to decide for yourself if it is BS, you can’t, because the online channels that promote the theory, or even that merely examine its merits without automatically dismissing it as pure fabrication, are all gone. Meanwhile, a Google search on the words “osama bin laden not killed in pakistan” yields the usual suspects – CNN, Washington Post, CBS, “factcheck.org” and all the rest, vigorously debunking the story.

Simultaneously, the mainstream media is awash with criticism of President Trump, who said “people can decide for themselves” regarding these conspiracy theories. But the President is right. When YouTube censors and shuts down content providers, working in lockstep with the biggest news corporations in the world, it doesn’t end the discussion. It just raises suspicion that maybe there is something to all of this.

The timing is also suspect. Another wave of shutdowns right before the November election. And the Bin Laden story, less believable, providing cover to also squelch the new developments in the Biden/Burisma story, which is very believeable.

The frightening conclusion one has to consider is that there is, mixed within the more outlandish reports and claims, some hidden truths that represent a grave threat to some very powerful special interests. Otherwise they would not give so much publicity to these online rebels by destroying their voice.

“Liberal Hivemind” Skewers the Liberal Hive Mind

/in /by

Active for only eight months, “Liberal Hivemind” has produced over 120 videos and earned 586,000 subscribers. The mission? “Former Liberal, looking to shine light on the hypocrisy that pushed me away from the left.”

An attempt to identify the person behind these videos yielded an IMBd (Internet Movie Database) biography that was spare: “Liberal Hivemind is a producer and director, known for Liberal Hivemind (2019).” And for a tantalizing hint: The voice sounds very similar to the voice of a YouTuber that was banned… enough said…

If the bio is spare, the content on YouTube is thick and unsparing. A good example would be the tragic shooting of a Trump supporter in Denver, which the major networks characterized as “security guard shoots right wing extremist.” In a video just released entitled “New Evidence on Leftist Denver Shooter,” Liberal Hivemind presents details that prove (1) the victim was not an extremist, nor a racist, just a Trump supporter, (2) the shooter had a well documented history of leftist, anti-Trump comments and actions, and (3) the shooter did not appear to be acting in self defense.

It’s more important than ever to have content producers who will compile and post evidence like this. On this same video, Liberal Hivemind presents evidence that the men arrested in a plot to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmore were not Trump supporters, but actually despised President Trump. Nor were they white supremacists or right wing extremists. They were anarchists.

Other videos released in the past few days by Liberal Hivemind present encouraging examples of Trump’s support around the U.S. despite widely hyped polls showing him losing. In this video, polling data is shown that contradicts the reports from the media, showing Trump 2020 outperforming his polling status at this same time in 2016.

One thing is certain these days. It is impossible to trust much of anything that comes from the major news networks or newspapers, online or offline. Add Liberal Hivemind to the growing list of alternative sources of news and information. They are needed now more than ever.

Facebook Turns “Fact Checking” Over to Biased Groups

/in /by

A recent video posted on Twitter by John Stossel describes his war with Facebook “fact checkers,” who deboosted and put a warning onto his video about forest fires. When he finally gained access to the fact checking organization, called “Climate Feedback,” they acknowledged that his video was unfairly censored. So what happened?

The scientist at Climate Feedback, Stefan Doerr, who to his credit was willing to speak with Stossel about this, said the video was probably flagged because Stossel interviewed Michael Shellenberger.” Or as Doerr put it, “my assumption is that because Shellenberger pops up in there, and his statements have basically been shown to be partially wrong…”

“Partially wrong.”

On the other hand, “partially wrong” in this case also means “mostly right.” Shellenberger’s recently published book Apocalypse Never, makes a complicated but compelling case. It isn’t alarmist pablum. It’s also extremely important. Because the path of international development we’re currently on, which denies prosperity to billions of people in order to prevent “climate change,” is a recipe for ongoing population growth, poverty, misery, war, and tangible, horrific environmental destruction.

Shellenberger’s crime, which has earned him the unanimous and bitter enmity of the climate industrial complex, was to argue that (1) climate change, while real, is not leading towards an ecological catastrophe, (2) development of industry and infrastructure in Africa and other developing regions will prevent further environmental degradation, and (3) nuclear power is an unfairly maligned, safe and nearly inexhaustible source of energy.

Don’t think so? Read the book. One thing’s for certain. You won’t hear much good online about Shellenberger, or his book. The censors have seen to that.

As for the fires in California? Of course they were the result of bad forestry. Stossel, and Shellenberger, are absolutely correct to emphasize that as the cause. Sure, rising temperatures played a role, but those fires would have been cataclysmic even if it were a few degrees cooler, because for nearly a century natural fires were not allowed to burn, and environmentalists destroyed the timber industry, prevented mechanical thinning, and litigated to stop controlled burns.

Mismanagement was undoubtedly the bigger cause. Environmentalists lose credibility every time they pretend otherwise. But you’ll never know, unless you get past the censors.
