Facebook, Twitter Rarely Censor Anti-Semitic Posts

/0 Comments/in , /by

Facebook and Twitter only removed a small fraction of anti-Semitic posts users reported in 2021, highlighting the difficulties social media companies face when moderating hate speech.

A new report from the Center for Countering Digital Hate found that Twitter and Facebook took down fewer than one in nine reported examples of anti-Semitism over a six-week period in 2021. The center also reported hundreds of anti-Semitic posts on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. The posts include Holocaust denial, Nazi symbolism, and hashtags like #holohoax and #killthejews. The posts received 7.3 million views on the social media platforms.

The study reveals social media giants’ inconsistent approach to content moderation. Facebook and Twitter have suppressed scientific pieces suggesting COVID-19 could have escaped from a Chinese lab. But the platforms’ efforts to fight “misinformation” do not extend to anti-Semitic posts. The center emphasized that the true percentage of anti-Semitic posts taken down is likely far lower than its study reported.

Taliban Ambushes and Kills Afghan Government Media Official

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Taliban ambushed and killed the director of Afghanistan’s government media center on Friday in the capital of Kabul, the latest killing of a government official just days after an assassination attempt on the country’s acting defense minister.

The slaying comes amid Taliban advances and battles for more territory as U.S. and NATO forces complete their final pullout from Afghanistan by the end of the month. The Taliban have been waging fierce battles for months across Afghanistan, laying siege to provincial capitals in the south and west of the country after capturing district after district and even seizing several key border crossings.

Also Friday, in southern Nimroz province, the capital of Zaranj appeared to be the first provincial capital to fall to the Taliban though the government claimed there was still fierce fighting around key infrastructure in the city. But the Taliban posted images on social media showing insurgents inside the local airport and posing for photographs at the entrance to the city.

Nimroz is sparsely populated in a region that’s mainly desert and Zaranj, the provincial capital, has about 50,000 residents. Its fall to the Taliban, if confirmed, was a mostly symbolic victory for the insurgents.

Meanwhile, Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told The Associated Press that the insurgents killed Dawa Khan Menapal, the chief of the Afghan government’s press operations for local and foreign media. He had previously been a deputy spokesman for Afghan President Ashraf Ghani. (Read more from “Taliban Ambushes and Kills Afghan Government Media Official” HERE)

Why is Subway Continuing to Use Anti-American LGBTQ Olympian Megan Rapinoe in Major Advertising? (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Megan Rapinoe kicked up another round of controversy at the Tokyo Olympics — and now a group of Subway franchisees are pressuring the fast-food giant to give her the boot.

The 36-year-old, purple-haired soccer star — who kneeled during the National Anthem to kick off the Tokyo Olympics before leading the United States to a bronze medal this week — began a stint as a pitchwoman for the fast-food giant this spring.

In one spot, Rapinoe — who has been a vocal proponent of equal rights and equal pay for women — knocks a burrito out of a guy’s hands by kicking a soccer ball at him.

The response has been mixed, according to franchisees. Late last month on a discussion forum hosted by the North American Association of Subway Franchisees, a Wisconsin store operator posted a picture of a hand-scrawled note from an irate customer taped to the front door of his shop.

“Boycott Subway until Subway fires the anti-American … Megan Rapinoe, the creep who kneels for our beloved National Anthem!” the note read.

Yelp Adds ‘Proof of Vaccination Required’ and ‘All Staff Fully Vaccinated’ Filters

By Breitbart. Yelp, a website that crowdsources reviews about businesses, created a new filter to widen the divide between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated.

WATCH: Now Americans Are Signing Petition to Jail ‘Anti-Vaxxers’

By WND. Man-in-the-street interview activist Mark Dice has released a video showing many, many Americans willingly signing a petition to have those who have not taken the experimental COVID vaccines arrested and jailed.

Several exclaimed “Yes” when Dice droned on about how “we don’t need those people walking among us,” and “we’ll have to decide for them what’s best.”

There were several who accused Dice of being a socialist for advocating such extreme government intervention in individual lives, and one astute passer-by took Dice out with “This is a joke.”

This person noted that those who signed? “They’re all idiots.” (Read more from “WATCH: Now Americans Are Signing Petition to Jail ‘Anti-Vaxxers'” HERE)

Landlord Out $24,000 in Rent Due to Moratorium, While Tenant’s Out Buying Boats

/0 Comments/in , /by

A North Carolina landlord says he is out $24,000 in unpaid rent from tenants, while one renter bought three boats over the course of the eviction moratorium just as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced a new ban that will last until Oct. 3.

Buddy Shoup, who owns 35 properties across the state, said that he has been forced to maintain the properties and hemorrhage costs while the federal government slowly dribbles out rental assistance, of which only 7% has been doled out to renters in need.

“[The money] was used, they went and bought brand new boats, but I mean, you know in a time of crisis like what we’ve been through, you’re evidently getting money from somewhere, but it’s not getting to me,” said Shoup.

Those very same tenants allegedly contacted Shoup when their air-conditioning failed in the middle of the summer.

Shoup was legally required to make the $4,500 repair on the residence but said he did not receive any money from the tenants or the government to cover the additional cost. (Read more from “Landlord Out $24,000 in Rent Due to Moratorium, While Tenant’s Out Buying Boats” HERE)

Former House Speaker Concerned Over Fauci’s ‘Cognitive Impairment’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich expressed concerns recently over longtime National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases head Dr. Anthony Fauci’s “cognitive impairment,” claiming that the once outstanding immunologist has been deteriorating as of late.

Appearing on Fox News Primetime on Wednesday, the segment began with Gingrich focusing on Fauci’s interview with McClatchy, in which the doctor warned about the delta variant and how the country’s COVID-19 infections could double within weeks to 200,000 cases a day.

In response, Gingrich explained why he believed Fauci should retire.

Referring to Fauci as having been “one of the most important scientists in the world,” the former Republican leader lamented “watching his decay” in recent times. . .

“People worry about President Biden, I worry about Fauci in terms of his cognitive impairment much more than I worry about President Biden,” he said. (Read more from “Former House Speaker Concerned Over Fauci’s ‘Cognitive Impairment’” HERE)

How Majority of Americans Really Feel About Vaccine Passports for Restaurants

/1 Comment/in , /by

A majority of Americans oppose requiring proof of vaccination to enable people to dine at restaurants.

Asked in what situations proof of vaccination should be required, 59% of those polled said that restaurants should not require proof of vaccinations status, compared to 37% who support the idea, according to the results of a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday.

But Americans were more split on whether proof of vaccination should be required in other places. Asked if travelers should be required to show proof of vaccination on airlines, 52% supported that mandate compared to 45% who opposed it. More respondents also felt that attendees of large sporting or entertaining events should show proof of vaccination, with 49% supporting the idea compared to 47% who opposed it.

“There are varying opinions on who should be required to prove they have had the vaccine. Yes on proof of vaccination for those who fly, a toss-up for people attending large events, and a no for people going to restaurants,” Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy said of the results.

COVID Hits All-Vaccinated Carnival Cruise

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .The COVID vaccines now available in the United States also still are all considered experimental.

And there probably is no more clear an illustration of that uncertainty as the recent announcement from Carnival that there are positive COVID cases aboard its Carnival Vista cruise ship.

That’s because, according to The Liberty Daily, every staff member and every guest on the ship was vaccinated.

“Somewhere near Cozumel in the Caribbean Sea, there’s a cruise ship that had zero unvaccinated people aboard but that still suffered an outbreak of Covid-19,” the report said. “This goes against the narrative that the reason for ‘breakthrough cases’ is due to too many unvaccinated people mingling with those who have taken the experimental injections.”

It continued, “The Carnival Vista, which departed from Galveston, Texas, on July 31, has issued strict face mask protocols and ordered infected people aboard into isolation. Mainstream media is already busy blowing it off while the cruise company is patting itself on the back for reacting to swiftly.” (Read more from “COVID Hits All-Vaccinated Carnival Cruise” HERE)
