On state institutions criminalizing opposition to leftist narratives and another major Catholic architectural treasure in France in flames: Links 1 for July 11, 2024
1. If one listens to this entire propaganda piece from one of the colour revolution centres in the UK and understand that the only meaningfull word in it is, “Comrade”, and then listen to the speech through the lens of that word as having meaning, it all makes sense.
CANT MAKE THIS UP ???

Unfortunately it also suck the humour out of it. Maybe watch it first and laugh, then again with that understanding
2. Well that didn’t take long at all did it?
France: Rouen Cathedral fire brought under control in Normandy

Firefighters in the Normandy city of Rouen have managed to bring a fire in its world-famous gothic cathedral under control, calming fears of another disaster at one of France’s architectural jewels five years after the devastation of Notre Dame.
Initial television images showed a dark plume of smoke rising from the cathedral spire and people in the streets below looking up in horror.
In later images, smoke could still be seen through a gap in the white cover encircling the scaffolding around the spire, but it was no longer rising in a dark column. After about 90 minutes firefighters said the blaze had been contained. […]
Fire in the wooden frame of the roof caused devastating damage to Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris in 2019, and repairs are only now nearing completion.
Fire also engulfed Copenhagen’s Old Stock Exchange, one of the Danish capital’s most historic landmarks, in April, toppling its spire. Large parts of the outer walls also later collapsed.
The Rouen Cathedral spire had been surrounded by scaffolding and a white cover for several weeks.
3. The following one is the one I want to really draw people’s attention to. While we are worried about a repeat of Covid with Bird Flu or any of the other major attacks on our rights through the means we have seen recently across the West, there is in fact a direct criminalization of opposition to communist narratives taking place at every level of officialdom. I offer you two stories which from this perspective are exactly the same thing taking place, but via slightly different means and to slightly different aspects of the same target group. Either way, this is literal criminalization of opposition to leftist control and narratives.

An anti-terrorism brief was held on Fort Liberty (Bragg) today where they listed several Pro-Life organizations as “terrorist organizations.”
The slide you see here followed right after a slide about ISIS, a terror group in the Middle East. The organizations labeled by the army as terror organizations include National Right to Life and Operation Rescue. They also included a screenshot of a license plate with “IM4IT,” which is a plate many Pro-Life citizens put on their car which implies normal citizens are terrorists if they display this plate.
The slide goes on to mention activities which these organizations participate in which include being Pro-Life, opposing Row v Wade, demonstrating and protesting (a 1st Amendment protected right), “Truth Displays,” and picketing.
They also falsely attribute the bombing of abortion clinics to National Right to Life. Keep in mind they’re not labeling them as extremist organizations (which would still be crazy), but as terrorist organizations. The military and Dept of Defense are insanely out of control. Service-members are being indoctrinated to view Pro-Life groups as the enemy.
The last part shows a lack of understanding. It isn’t that they “are insanely out of control”. It is that they are under a different control than he believes them to be. This is really important to understand, and no, it is not picking nits. It is in fact the entire lousy infestation.
Now from Germany:
Germany Strips Conservatives of Gun Rights – Beware, They Are Coming for Your Country Next
In a clear demonstration of authoritarian action targeting political affiliation, the German government has imposed another discriminatory measure against the Alternative for Germany (AfD), the country’s sole conservative party and the second-most popular party. The latest assault on democratic rights is a court ruling that bans AfD members from owning firearms.
This decision reflects the ongoing attempts by the left-wing government and their well-funded Antifa allies to stifle the AfD’s rise through any means necessary, including selectively applying laws to deny rights and using proxies for state-sponsored violence.
This targeting is not unique to Germany but is part of a global trend where conservative parties and leaders face systematic suppression and violent attacks by their left-wing opposition. These actions aim to render conservatives defenseless and criminalized, ultimately seeking to destroy all political opposition using tactics reminiscent of communist regimes.
This move comes after Nancy Faeser, Germany’s Interior Minister, recently boastedabout the government’s plans to target and suppress conservative opposition. She emphasized efforts to monitor financial transactions and advocated for expanded government authority to combat what she described as “human-despising ideology.”
The following video from several months ago, is an establishment politician declaring her intentions to deracinate the only non-communist party in Germany.
So in Germany in an almost refreshingly honest action, opposition to communist rule and narratives are having their rights removed. Basic rights available to all citizens. While in the USA, people of the same group, who support legal approaches to issues of which the left has taken control, are being designated as terrorist groups.
Asking Brave’s AI the question on rights and being a member of a designated Terrorist group I get:
If a group is designated as terrorist in USA, do the members lose rights
When a group is designated as a terrorist organization in the United States, the members of that group do not automatically lose their rights. The designation primarily affects the group’s ability to operate and receive support in the United States, rather than the individual rights of its members.
Constitutional Protections
As U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents, group members are still protected by the U.S. Constitution and are entitled to the same rights and freedoms as any other individual. The designation of a group as a terrorist organization does not strip its members of their constitutional rights, such as freedom of speech, freedom of association, and due process.
Investigative and Law Enforcement Powers
While the designation may give law enforcement agencies more latitude in investigating and prosecuting group members, it does not grant them unlimited powers to disregard the constitutional rights of those individuals. Law enforcement agencies must still adhere to established procedures and protocols to ensure that the rights of group members are respected.
International Implications
The designation of a group as a terrorist organization can have significant international implications, including the potential for sanctions, travel restrictions, and asset freezes. However, these measures are separate from the rights of individual group members and do not directly affect their constitutional protections.
In Conclusion
In summary, when a group is designated as a terrorist organization in the United States, its members do not automatically lose their rights. They are still protected by the U.S. Constitution and are entitled to the same rights and freedoms as any other individual. The designation primarily affects the group’s ability to operate and receive support in the United States, rather than the individual rights of its members.
Personally i would consider this answer to be de jure. But the de facto consequences under an essentially COMINTERN regime such as Biden’s is likely to be a lot more damaging than the law as stated above allows.
Further examples of the law being used to criminalize opponents of state narratives at all levels are actually legion. Helen Grus for one is a sterling example.
The doctors and scientists who lost their jobs, licences, homes, Nurses and other medical professionals. People who were debanked for supporting a legal protest against the illegal loss of our rights by the state. Deparented, when the state takes your child because you don’t want them sterilized in the name of Trans-affirming-care. Or when the state decided that they can have your children injected with EUA gene-therapy without parental knowledge or consent. That is the state taking away your parental rights and gifting it to itself. Having your proeprty rights taken in the name of “gun control”. And of course all the rights we have gotten used to not having such as brutal and even grotesque unfairness in divorce where men have no voice in court and no circumstance justifies them keeping their own wealth. Trudeau dehumanized, un-personed all Canadians who rejected the Covid narratives and in particular, the vaccine narrative as unfit to take up space.
Again, as the old joke goes, ‘how did you come to be a communist state? Well, slowly at first, then all at once.
4. The following clip of Bern Shapiro offering testimony at a Congressional hearing is really superb. He clearly gets it at a level most do not. But for Canadians and Europeans he also answers a question that to some degree must be at least half formed in our own heads. And that is that we understand how government media can be warped to be weapons for the Maoist mass line narrative attacks that have all but completely made us communist states. But how exactly does that happen with a commercial broadcast station who’s revenues are from advertising and not from the state?
Watch this one. It’s very good. Full text of Tweet below the video.

Watch Ben Shapiro Tear into Censorship Cartel in Fiery Congressional Testimony
“We’re in the midst of a trust crisis in the world of media, which is because so many in the legacy media have lied in order to preserve left-leaning narratives.
To take just the most recent example, we were told by the legacy media that President Biden was just fine. For years, anyone who questioned his health and mental fitness was trafficking in cheap fakes. And then President Biden went out and engaged in a full-scale mental collapse on stage in front of hundreds of millions of people.“So we can see why Americans, at least Americans who are not Democrats, do not trust the media. The question isn’t really why the legacy media have lost Americans’ trust. We know that answer. The question is why, despite that loss of trust, the legacy media continue to gain share in the advertising market. And the answer is simple.
There is, in fact, an informal pressure system created by Democratic legislators, this White House, legacy media, advertisers, and pseudo-objective brand safety organizations. That system guarantees that advertising dollars flow only to left-wing media brands.
“Let me explain how this works. When a conservative competitor to the legacy media arises, members of that legacy media and their political allies rush to paint such competitors as dangerous.
The commentator Kara Swisher of the New York Times, for example, told the head of YouTube that my videos at Daily Wire were a gateway drug that would lead children, including her own teenage son, to watch neo-Nazi content. Nevermind the yarmulke.
“Elected Democrats pick up that same messaging. In 2017, Senator Dianne Feinstein told lawyers at Facebook, Google, and Twitter, ‘You created these platforms and now they’re being misused, and you have to be the ones to do something about it, or we will.’ Social media companies react to incentive structures, including threats.
They have responded by adopting the standards of third-party, left-wing informational safety groups like the Global Alliance for Responsible Media, or GARM. GARM purportedly sets brand safety standards, objective standards by which advertisers and platforms can supposedly determine just what sort of content ought to be deemed safe for advertising.
“In reality, GARM acts as a cartel. Its members account for 90% of ad spending in the United States, almost a trillion dollars. In other words, if you’re not getting ad dollars from GARM members, it’s nearly impossible to run an ad-based business.
And if you’re not following their preferred political narratives, the ones that Kara Swisher and Dianne Feinstein would follow, you will not be deemed brand safe. Your business will be throttled. We at Daily Wire have experienced this firsthand. In 2017, after Senator Feinstein made her threats to bring the weight of government down on social media platforms, the Daily Wire YouTube channel saw a 1000% increase in content enforcements over a two-year period.
Since 2021, after Democrat officials further turned up the heat on social media companies, my personal Facebook page has seen an over 80% drop in impressions.
“Or take Joe Rogan. When Joe said that he had taken Ivermectin after getting COVID, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki pressured Spotify to take action, stating, ‘We want every platform to be doing more to call out missing disinformation while also uplifting accurate information.’ Spotify complied. Spotify, of course, works with GARM. “So what are the brand safety standards that GARM uses? The standards begin with inarguable things that we’ve heard from the other witnesses, like preventing the distribution of child sexual abuse material or stopping terrorism. But GARM doesn’t draw the line at what is criminal, abusive, or dangerous. Their standards also include restrictions on hate speech, harassment, misinformation, or, my personal favorite, insensitive, irresponsible, and harmful treatment of debated, sensitive social issues.
Those criteria are highly subjective in theory, and they are purely partisan in practice.
For example, last year, Daily Wire host Matt Walsh was fully demonetized on YouTube, a GARM member. Why? For quote-unquote misgendering, which to GARM is to say that men are not women. Perfectly obvious facts now run afoul of GARM’s censorship standards. “Companies targeted by GARM, like the Daily Wire, Breitbart, Fox News, and so many others, reach hundreds of millions of people with opinions and beliefs long established as within the mainstream of American conservative thought.
GARM and its members have no respect for the beliefs of those people. They would like them marginalized or squashed. It’s time to stand up for the First Amendment in this Congress. “Congress can do so in two ways. First, Congress must investigate the informal and perhaps formal arrangements between censorship cartels like GARM and executive branch agencies.
The Daily Wire has already filed a federal lawsuit against the State Department for allegedly doing just this. Second, Congress can itself stop engaging in violation of free speech principles. Two weeks ago, writing a dissent in Murthy versus Missouri, Justice Alito condemned what he called sophisticated and coercive government campaigns against free speech. “Members of this committee have engaged in precisely such campaigns. When Congressman Schiff speaks about targeting social media companies that must be, quote, ‘pulled and dragged into this era of corporate responsibility because they are too tolerant of misinformation,’ he knows what he is doing. He is participating in a sophisticated, coercive campaign against free speech.
When Congresswoman Jayapal blames social media for placing America at the precipice of a democratic crisis and calls on them to target what they deem hate groups, she also knows what she is doing. She is participating in a sophisticated, coercive campaign against free speech. When Congressman Hank Johnson says, quote, ‘We need a constitutional amendment to allow the legislature to control the so-called free speech rights of corporations,’ he also knows what he is doing. “We all know what these government actors, what some people in this room are doing. You’re using the tacit threat of government action to compel private companies to throttle viewpoints you don’t particularly like.
The First Amendment was not designed to enable workarounds by elected officials. It was directed at Congress, at you. And you’re abdicating your fundamental duty when you exert pressure on private companies to censor speech. Some in this room have been doing just that for years. We in the non-legacy media have been feeling the effects. In the name of the Constitution and the name of democracy, this should stop.”
