The blog 2nd City Cop has decided to pull the plug. It’s a very sad time with the leftist/communists throwing their weight around and silencing whoever they can. Their statement on why they decided to close their blog can be read here. The unfortunate reality is that the mask has come off of the Democrats, the left, and indeed some Republican traitors who are on board with the push to cancel the critics. I can understand why some people are afraid of them. They have no qualms about getting people fired from their jobs for wrong think. And they will use financial intimidation (and other kinds) to get patriots to shut up if they can.
Now I don’t have much of an audience here. Just a few readers a day and no comments really. But I will continue to post for several reasons. One, I am by nature stubborn. I don’t like being pushed around and never have. I took care of three bullies at the same time back in high school once when I had reached my limit. It’s a long story, but while I don’t get upset very easily, I don’t like injustice at all and sometimes you have to do something about it. They crossed the line and they paid for it. And they never bothered me again. I’m in good shape, well trained, and can take care of myself. That’s still true today.
The second reason is that I am in the fortunate position of being totally independent. I do not need to work and therefore cannot be threatened with the loss of a job. I have only myself to support and there is no one else to threaten. I have what some other creative people call “Fuck You” Money. No one is going to silence me easily. And of course, this blog is backed up regularly to my very own hard drive, so all of this information can be put back if needed. I have never been shy about my opinions and I am not going to change now.
So those of us who can continue will. No blame on those who feel they can’t take the risk. They deserve our thanks and respect.
As for you, the one reading this, I would suggest that you get off those platforms controlled by the enemy; Twitter, Facebook, etc. They are not your friends. They will use their leverage against you. Don’t give them any. Look for platforms controlled by patriots, such as GAB.
Well, this was certainly a long time coming. Fifteen years, over 22,000 posts, almost two million comments and God knows how many attempts to silence us. But it might finally be over…at least this version of it.
Over the weekend, we received information from a contact at Google that internal chat/e-mails led them to believe that certain precautions we had taken over the years had been breached by Google. We had gotten similar warnings from others in the past, and we dealt with or ignored them as the situation warranted. But this one was different.
And this one – on the heels of Big Tech’s wholesale attack on the President, Parler and center-right to right-leaning authors, politicians and voices – pointed to a countdown that had far less time than we had thought. Most likely, far less time than you think, too. The blacklisting has begun, even if you won’t see it. You should – the wholesale abandonment of the President, the denunciations, the, “I wasn’t really with him” self-serving statements. Sound familiar? It should…if you have any recollections of the show trials behind the Iron Curtain, in Southeast Asia, in assorted Middle East kleptocracies.
Disavowal and re-education is on tap. What Senator McCarthy is remembered for – “Are you now or have you ever been…” has been twisted, refined (Bake that cake!), and exacerbated (Parler is only the first of many). They don’t want “unity.” They want Compliance and as the last fifteen years have shown, we aren’t really good at compliance. The amount of personal data available to “woke companies” who would deny commerce or service based on beliefs, contributions, investments (not Green enough!), social media posting, employment (cops not welcome here), bumper stickers – Have you heard of Operation Choke Point? Look it up and imagine it drilled down to individual citizens. Orwell’s 1984? It’s here.
