Peter Van Buren was suspended yesterday, although he was getting heated with a few reporters responding to Trump's tweet about the media causing wars.
PVB eventually told a reporter something like "I hope a MAGA guy eats your face". Scott Horton had the details in his timeline but I don't see it anymore. I suppose Scott could have gotten suspended for posting the image of a tweet that got someone else suspended....?

The Crackdown Continues: Twitter Suspends Libertarian Accounts, Including Ron Paul Institute Director

One day after what appeared to be a coordinated attack by media giants Facebook, Apple, Spotify and Google on Alex Jones, whose various social media accounts were banned or suspended in a matter of hours, the crackdown against alternative media figures continued as several Libertarian figures, including the Ron Paul Institute director, found their Twitter accounts suspended.

Two more casualties of the Twitter purge of antiwar voices: @ScottHortonShow, the new editorial director of https://t.co/QNAmINHNCX, and @DanielLMcAdams, director of the Ron Paul Institute.

Are you next?
— Justin Raimondo (@JustinRaimondo) August 6, 2018

On Monday, Twitter suspended the editorial director of antiwar.com Scott Horton, former State Department employee Peter Van Buren, and Dan McAdams, the executive director of the Ron Paul Institute.


Scott Horton, Peter Van Buren, and Dan McAdams have been suspended from Twitter.
If you go to their accounts, you will see their old tweets, but they are prohibited from making new tweets. They were reported by @KatzOnEarth for criticizing his posts. Please complain to Twitter. pic.twitter.com/kaWAqasLKQ
— Antiwar.com (@Antiwarcom) August 6, 2018

Horton was reportedly disciplined for the use of "improper language" against journalist Jonathan M. Katz, he said in a brief statement, while McAdams was suspended for retweeting him, he said. Past tweets in both accounts were available to the public at the time of the writing, unlike the account of Van Buren, which was fully suspended.

According to TargetLiberty, Horton and McAdams fell victim of Twitter’s suspension algorithm after objecting to Katz’s quarrel with Van Buren over an earlier interview.

The suspensions come days after Twitter suspended black conservative Candace Owen from Twitter for highlighting the algorithmic hypocrisy of Twitter by replacing the word “white” with “Jewish” in a series of tweets modeled on those by New York Times editor Sarah Jeong.

just after controversial conservative Alex Jones, and his podcast InfoWars, were kicked out from most social media platforms, prompting conservative to accuse the social networks of collusion in a collective crackdown on non-mainstream voices. The Silicon Valley giants were criticized by the US political establishment for failing to prevent alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Meanwhile, critics now say the pressured media giants are engaging in political censorship, using their market dominance and lack of legislated neutrality requirements to target descent voices ahead of the midterm elections.

***

In a scathing op-ed on Tuesday (http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2018/08/07/nigel-farage-if-twitter-wants-to-target-conservative-speech-then-treat-it-like-biased-publisher-it-is.html), Nigel Farage wrote that "while many on the libertarian right and within the conservative movement have their issues with Alex Jones and InfoWars, this week’s announcement by YouTube, Facebook, Apple, and Spotify represents a concerted effort of proscription and censorship that could just as soon see any of us confined to the dustbin of social media history."


These platforms that claim to be “open” and in favor of “free speech” are now routinely targeting -- whether by human intervention or not -- the views and expressions of conservatives and anti-globalists.

This is why they no longer even fit the bill of “platforms.” They are publishers in the same way we regard news outlets as publishers. They may use more machine learning and automation, but their systems clearly take editorial positions. We need to hold them to account in the same way we do any other publisher.

The popular thing will never need the protections of the First Amendment. The First Amendment exists to protect the Unpopular thing said. The real power that the people in charge are exerting is determining what is "unpopular", and are using that to destroy the entire Bill of Rights.

You arent paranoid of they really are after you.

I would ask people if they still think we are crazy. Sadly, I believe they would say no. My fear here is that they will actually cheer for the censorship of both Alex Jones and Ron Paul, and will never realize the person they are really censoring and hurting is themselves. When they get censored, we will not be able to speak up and defend their Right to express themselves as there will be no one left to defend their Rights, the same Rights they have thrown away in disgust because they did not want to hear the truth.

Do you think they wont ever try to come after RonPaulForums.com? We may very well be next on the chopping block.

phill4paul - The "they" refers to the people that support censorship. "They" are ordinary people whose voices are selectively recognized by the "official" MSM Media, and pretty much anyone who is pro censorship.

The Social Media Purge: Is the Mises Institute Next?

...

Senator Murphy did not have to lift a finger.

Yes, tech companies are private organizations with shareholders. Yes, nobody has a right to a platform, or a microphone, or an audience. Yes, nobody in America is being put in jail or fined by government for speech — yet (so-called hate speech laws already are in place across the West, and supported by many voters in the US). We do not advocate regulation of social media or technology companies under common carrier/utility theories or some tenuous expansion of public accommodations laws.

But the unholy nexus of state and corporate power is at the core of the libertarian critique. Big Tech is deeply involved with government at many levels, from data collection to spying to developing weapons and AI to providing cloud space to noxious federal agencies. Tech companies derive their economic, social, and cultural power not only from their competence in the marketplace, but increasingly from their connection to the state as well.

It is precisely this alliance that gives rise to justified criticisms of a power elite. Taken to its ultimate conclusion, the alliance becomes openly fascist. In this sense libertarians have every justification to oppose consolidations of economic power — and to recognize the blurring between First Amendment violations by express state actors and de-platforming of alternative voices by state-connected actors.

Is the Mises Institute next? Will we be de-platformed, shadow banned, or otherwise erased for promoting views — proudly radical, anti-state, and anti-war views — that the power elite cannot abide?

The answer lies in building independent platforms. Mises.org was a very early pioneer online, providing a critical forum for libertarian and Austrian writers beginning way back in October 1996. As a result, the site had a head start in becoming among the most-visited economics hubs in the world. Much of our site traffic is organic: visitors either direct their browser to the home page, or arrive at a particular page through search engines like Google.

Unlike newer sites, mises.org is less dependent on social media feeds to drive traffic to it — less than 20%. And while our traffic is robust, that 20% sourced from social media clicks will drop as platforms adjust their algorithms to punish content sites. They don't want you clicking through to mises.org.

So while the site could and would survive being de-platformed by social media companies, it would not take much for search engines to "disappear" our content. Imagine typing "Austrian economics" or "Mises" into Google and finding no mises.org results — or having those results shunned to the twentieth page of results.

You can help fight back by taking small steps today: set mises.org as your homepage, and visit frequently to make sure you're seeing articles and content that social media outlets hide from your feeds. When you do see our articles pop up, help us by clicking through. And circulate them via email to acquaintances using direct links, rather than simply sharing social media posts that in many cases disappear down a rabbit hole.

The state and its cronyist friends have built a world that seeks to silence our perspectives. We must recognize that arguments and content mean nothing if conduits for disseminating them are shut down.

Wonder if I'll get a Twitter ban for posting the liberty report with Horton and Van Buren interview?

No need for snark.

Facts are facts: if it's "free" on the internet, you are the product.

Which means when you sign up for it, you agree to everything about you being monitored, tracked, spindled, mutilated, sold, controlled or banned.

There are alternatives to Google, to Fedbook, to ScrewTube, to Twatter...all one has to do is use them.

I always get snarky when people start beating their chest online, just a habit of mine.

Well, I try to avoid that, as I find it disagreeable as well.

I'm sorry my comments came off that way...but honestly, sometimes you just gotta say "I told you so".

They should start looking at the way their employees are treated. If you don't allow yourself to be brainwashed into the leftist ideology - no hire for you. If you happened to be hired while a less restrictive policy still existed - no promotion. :cool:

Reinstated. Twitter says he's was suspended in error.:rolleyes:

They recanted (?) McDaniels deleted in "error" - *sigh*(didn't want a revolution, eh ?)

[asurfaholic]

I’ve noticed some of the news sites I’ve always visited and kept a constant stream of Liberty themed comments present have been shutting down their comment sections. For outreach on the Internet I think keeping a wide berth of subtle reminders of Liberty is far more effective than some of the things that people on social media do. Using Kokesh for example, you either like him or not. He may have a ton of followers but how many people is he converting?

Yet the people who get unexpectedly hit with a bit of truth from a perspective they haven’t considered while browsing something that they may not be already entertaining strong feelings on may be more ripe for the picking.

The purge is wider than a couple of good people on Facebook and Twitter. I could never keep a twitter account. I joined up, for verified or whatever, posted positive response to something during a Ron Paul debate and was instantly banned. It’s crazy.

And it continues. Alex Jones arbitrarily suspended for a week.

The Atlantic Council Facebook purge continues as well. Yesterday they deleted the page of leftist news channel TeleSUR.

Should we just have the NSA manage the data and skip the middle men?


According to a top-secret accounting dated Jan. 9, 2013, the NSA’s acquisitions directorate sends millions of records every day from internal Yahoo and Google networks to data warehouses at the agency’s headquarters at Fort Meade, Md. In the preceding 30 days, the report said, field collectors had processed and sent back 181,280,466 new records — including “metadata,” which would indicate who sent or received e-mails and when, as well as content such as text, audio and video.
The NSA’s principal tool to exploit the data links is a project called MUSCULAR (http://apps.washingtonpost.com/g/page/world/how-the-nsas-muscular-program-collects-too-much-data-from-yahoo-and-google/543/), operated jointly with the agency’s British counterpart, the Government Communications Headquarters (http://www.gchq.gov.uk/Pages/homepage.aspx) . From undisclosed interception points, the NSA and the GCHQ are copying entire data flows across fiber-optic cables that carry information among the data centers of the Silicon Valley giants.

Great example by Greenwald at the 11:15 mark. Twitter and Facebook have become analogous to the telephone network (or email as another example).

The video was only worth watching for Greenwald. It’s fairly obvious that the other two people from The Intercept would be lost without him. They would revert right back to standard leftist sheep if he wasn’t there, as they were before he started speaking.

Looks like administrative harassment.

The pattern of the latest bans should be clear. The anti-war movement is being targeted. Blatant Big Brother MIC state at work.
