“I AM ANTIFA” TRENDING IN GERMANY IN RESPONSE TO TRUMP

"I Am Antifa" Trending in Germany in Response to Trump

German leftists back terror group to own Trump

By Deutsche Welle – JULY 29, 2019

“I am Antifa” began trending in Germany after Trump said he might label the group a terror organization.

Left-wing politicians hit back at the US president, while far-right politicians expressed support for the proposal.

The hashtag #IchbinAntifa (“I am Antifa”) began trending on Twitter in Germany on Sunday after US President Donald Trump said he was considering labeling the group a terrorist organization.

Antifa, which is short for anti-fascists, is a loose network comprised of radical left-wing activists that confront right-wing extremists, neo-Nazi groups and white supremacists.

On Saturday, the US president said that the new classification “would make it easier for police to do their jobs,” and dubbed the anti-fascist group “gutless radical left wack jobs.”

In response, German social media users and some politicians pushed back against Trump’s remarks, with the “I am antifa” hashtag taking the number one spot on Twitter’s trending list.

“I am Antifa always and every time. German history compels us to stand up against racism and fascism. On the street and in parliament,” wrote Bernd Riexinger, co-chairman of the Left party.

Sven Lehmann, a Greens MP and the party’s spokesperson for social and queer policy, wrote on Twitter that he supports Antifa because the group “often looked closely when people were devalued or attacked, where others looked away.”

The hashtag sparked ire among politicians of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, several of whom expressed support for Trump and called for a similar measure in Germany.

“If Antifa is finally classified as a terrorist organization in this country as well, then the currently popular hashtag ‘I am Antifa’ offers up a very rich pool of investigative leads in the fight against terrorism,” AfD parliamentarian Jürgen Braun wrote on Twitter.

“Donald Trump is making it possible, thank you very much!” the far-right politician added.

The Hamburg branch of Germany’s police union also criticized Antifa, posting pictures of black-clad protesters holding signs calling for violence against police.

“Violence as a means of political conflict must be prohibited and criminally prosecuted — this must be a democratic consensus that transcends party and ideological boundaries,” the union wrote.

Although many Antifa members participate in peaceful protests, they have been criticized for believing violence is justified to combat racist or fascist groups.

The Anti-Defamation League, a leading Jewish group in the United States focused on hate crimes, describes Antifa as “a loose collection of groups, networks and individuals who believe in active, aggressive opposition to far right-wing movements.”

Early anti-fascist groups in Europe fought against Nazi leader Adolf Hitler and Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. The modern Antifa movement began to take shape in the 1960s and became active in the US in the 1970s.

Recent clashes between left-wing and right-wing protesters in the US prompted conservative Republican lawmakers to propose classifying Antifa as a terrorist organization.

 

Twitter Suspends @NewsChute In Latest Round of Orwellian Censorship

Twitter suspended the account, which was linked to YouTube alternative BitChute.

By Richard Moorhead

In the latest round of Orwellian censorship, Twitter has suspended an account linked to alternative tech platform BitChute, in what many are calling a shamelessly anti-competitive move to damage a social media platform that declines to censor right-of-center content.

NewsChute, a news service associated with YouTube competitor BitChute, was banned from the platform on Thursday night.

Twitter appears to be excusing the suspension under a ‘repeat offender’ rule, which mandates that site users previously suspended from Twitter receive new suspensions on any and all accounts they try to start. BitChute had hired journalist Nick Monroe to head the project, a conservative journalist known for in-depth research into leftist conspiracies and mainstream media bias.

Monroe had been suspended from Twitter on his personal account two months ago, allegedly for already evading blanket bans for his Twitter presence. The redundancy of the charges against Monroe raise serious questions, making many question whether he’s being banned for creating new accounts or simply because he’s an inconvenient figure in the eyes of Jack Dorsey and the other milquetoast Silicon Valley neoliberals running Twitter as their personal kingdom.

The action is even more shameless in light of BitChute’s status as a free speech competitor to YouTube, offering a video streaming service open to diverse forms of political speech. YouTube has sought to suppress shoestring content creators for months now, preferring a stale and controlled political media environment in which legacy dinosaur media companies such as MSNBC and CNN are given a generous handicap to peddle their stale content to the public.

It’s possible the ban could be reversed, but Dorsey’s apparent personal grudge against Monroe make it seem less than likely.

Transgender Activist Calls For More Domestic Terrorist Attacks & Trump Assassination, Cheers Antifa Firebomber as ‘Hero’

A YouTuber is calling for more violence against migrant detention centers in the days after the Antifa fire bomb terrorist’s attack.

By Tom Pappert

A transgendered Antifa YouTube content creator who calls herself Christopher Szabo released a video titled “Important Message To Leftists | In Memory of Will Van Spronsen”, in which she urged other leftists to enact attacks similar to that of Willem Van Spronsen, who attacked a migrant detention center in Tacoma, Washington with an AR-15 rifle and Molotov cocktails.

Szabo, who announced on Instagram that she is undergoing hormone replacement therapy, gave “tribute” to Van Spronsen, and stressed that she considers the domestic terrorist who attempted to fire bomb the migrant detention center in Tacoma a “hero” in her video, before stressing the need for more attacks against the United States government.

“I want to take a moment to give a tribute to Willem Van Spronsen,” said Szabo. “I’m just gonna say it, I think you’re a hero. I don’t care what you say, I think they’re a hero, and if you disagree with me, you’re f**king wrong.”

Szabo continued, “There are many incidents in history where people have taken radical positions and I have agreed with them, but this is the one time in my life time when I have seen someone take a radical stance where they put their life on the line, they fought for something selfless, and they died for it.”

The video then takes an even darker turn, as Szabo stresses the need for more domestic terrorist attacks.

“It’s something that we, on the left, should resonate with. Not just resonate with, but repeat. Not just repeat, you have to understand, this is just one individual, his death cannot go in vain, we need multiple individuals. We need multiple of these instances to happen.”

“What I’m calling for here, is that this cannot be an isolated incident, where one person storms into an ICE detention center and blows off a car and comes in with an AR-15, you know, and they just die,” said Szabo. “No, this can’t be an isolated incident.”

Szabo went on, “Instead, we need to have not just one time where somebody goes in, but not just two times, we need to have multiple people coming in, multiple people storming them, and we can f**king hang those motherf**kers on a f**king tree for all of the motherf**king country to see.”

She also ordered mass organization, saying that “You guys need to get organized, like more so than ever before.”

In her YouTube About section, Szabo calls herself “an anarcho-communist content creator” who wants to “combat white supremacy and capitalism.” On Patreon, Szabosays she is creating funny videos and leftist content.”

She has also threatened President Donald Trump, Paul Joseph Watson, and Steven Crowder on Twitter.

Additionally, Szabo affiliates with various other prominent left wing groups on its Discord channel, with Earth Strike International, an international anti-climate change group, listed prominently as an “ally”.

Big League Politics has asked YouTube to comment on a video advocating violence being present on its platform, and did not receive a response in time for publication. Likewise, Big League Politics did not receive an immediate response from Twitter regarding threats against President Trump being present on its platform, or whether Twitter also reported these threats to the Secret Service.

Big League Politics intends to provide law enforcement agencies with all relevant information regarding Szabo’s social media use.

Poll Finds Massive Support For Bill to Force Big Tech Companies to be Politically Neutral

Screen Shot 2019-07-14 at 5.41.54 PM

By Chris Menahan

A new poll from Echelon Insights found Senator Josh Hawley’s bill which aims to force Big Tech companies to be politically neutral was “the most popular tech-related proposal” out of multiple plans tested.

The plan is supported by voters from both parties and Independents by huge margins.

Echelon Insights Patrick Ruffini shared the results Thursday on Twitter:

Senator Hawley talked about his bill Thursday at the White House Social Media Summit:

“Americans are tired of Big Tech censorship. Time to listen to them, not the Big Tech-funded apologists,” Hawley said on Twitter, linking to the above poll.

Though voters from both parties are clamoring for Big Tech to be reigned in without any action on the part of our congress, 140 House Republicans just voted with Democrats to give a massive handout to Google and other tech giants by passing a bill that will hand out hundreds of thousands of green cards to Indian contract workers so they can drive down wages and outsource our nation’s jobs.

The disconnect between what the public actually wants and what our sold out (or blackmailed?) criminal congress is giving us could not be any bigger.

Judge, jury & executioner: Facebook policy permits death threats against ‘dangerous individuals’

Screen Shot 2019-07-10 at 10.53.50 AM

Facebook has issued an ominous new policy permitting death threats and calls for violence – so long as they’re directed against “dangerous” individuals or organizations, or someone accused (but not convicted) of a crime.

Facebook has updated its “community standards” to carve out a few exceptions to its “no death threats” policy. Calls for “high-severity violence” are now permitted, as long as they’re directed at individuals “covered in the Dangerous Individuals and Organizations policy” or individuals “described as having carried out violent crimes or sexual offenses” by media reports. After all, are people banned from Facebook really people at all?

‘No future for dissidents’ on social media: Paul Joseph Watson reflects on Facebook ban

Screen Shot 2019-07-10 at 10.57.10 AM

The change was spotted on Tuesday by commentator Paul Joseph Watson, who along with his former Infowars boss Alex Jones was one of a handful of mostly-conservative personalities banned from Facebook in May under its “Dangerous Individuals” policy. Back then, even mentioning one of the banned names could get a user banned – unless the mention was derogatory.

Facebook has apparently taken that “hate the haters” tactic and run with it. While the “Dangerous Individuals” policy supposedly only covers “terrorist activity, organized hate, mass or serial murder, human trafficking, and organized violence or criminal activity,” none of the commentators banned – including Watson, Jones, conservative political performance artist Milo Yiannopoulos, and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan – were involved in any of those activities. But, Watson discovered, a person wearing an Infowars t-shirt is enough to get a photo removed from Instagram, and photos that include banned individuals – even if their faces are blurred out – have been deleted as well.

Equally ominous is Facebook’s decision to dispense with the concept of “innocent until proven guilty” that forms the core of the US legal system (Facebook is based in Menlo Park, California, and at least theoretically subject to US laws). Individuals need only be accused in the media of violent crimes and sexual offenses to become fair game for death threats – not convicted in court. For a company that claims to take the threat of “fake news” very seriously, Facebook is surprisingly cavalier about the potential for media misinformation to lead to violence.

But then, Facebook never even tried to prove Watson, Jones or any of the other banned users were “Dangerous Individuals,” either – its policy has always been that banned users are guilty until proven innocent, as any user who’s ever been forced to jump through its tech support hoops to restore a banned account can attest.

“The largest social media company in the world with over 2 billion users literally says it’s fine to incite violence against me, despite this being illegal,” Watson wrote at Summit.news, pointing out that sending death threats or threats of violence is, in fact, a crime under UK law (as it is under US law and the laws of most developed countries with substantial Facebook-using populations).

Screen Shot 2019-07-10 at 11.01.06 AM

Facebook even tracks off-platform behavior to determine whether users should be blacklisted as “hate agents,” according to internal documents seen by Breitbart, meaning merely showing up at the same event as a “dangerous individual” can potentially earn a user the designation. The site’s list of “hate agents” is reportedly quite exhaustive and includes British politicians Carl Benjamin and Anne Marie Waters as well as conservative commentators like Yiannopoulos and Candace Owens. Because all this classification goes on in secret, users have no chance to appeal their un-personing, and may never even know they are being judged, until they start receiving Facebook-approved death threats of their own.

America First Candidate Joey Saladino SLIMED by GOP Establishment

By Jose Nino

On July 5, 2019, the campaign of Joseph “Joey” Saladino accused a Manhattan GOP Political Director, Robert “Bob” Morgan Jr. of sexual harassment.

According to a press release from Saladino’s team, this campaign of sexual harassment took place on Independence Day.  Robert “Bob” Morgan Jr is a well-established figured in the New York Republican Party machine with strong ties to Saladino’s establishment opponent, Nicole Malliotakis.

As millions of Americans put partisanship and petty politics aside during the 4thof July, Morgan spread nude photos of Saladino on Twitter. Based on an interview with Saladino, these photos were originally from one of Saladino’s previous YouTube endeavors where he was pulling Jackass style stunts. Morgan took it a step further by trying to shame Saladino for his pictures.

In light of these attacks, Saladino commented, “Of course, I’m angry to suffer this kind of sexual harassment from an official of the Manhattan GOP.”

The congressional candidate added, “First of all, it was on Independence Day he decided to do this, and two it’s really creepy that he would be so interested in my body and my [genitalia].”

Morgan made no efforts of trying to hide the images behind adult content filters, which made them freely available for minors to view. Saladino claims “It’s guaranteed that he exposed the images to minors, he made no efforts to censor the images.”

The Saladino campaign believes “that this targeted, politically motivated sexual harassment campaign was directed by members of Nicole Malliotakis’ assembly or campaign staff.” In Saladino’s view, Robert Morgan lacks the guile or initiative to carry out such an attack on his own.

In fact, Saladino revealed to Big League Politics that he had a previous run-in with Morgan’s business partner, Liam McCabe, during a Trump watch party event in June. As Saladino tried to peacefully enter the venue, he was met by McCabe, who threatened to have Saladino removed from the venue for no reason. McCabe yelled repeatedly at Saladino, “You can’t be here!”

Saladino’s campaign staff was as able to de-escalate the situation and enter the venue without problems. But that was not the end of this encounter. On Independence Day, Morgan took to the Internet and started launching coordinated attacks Saladino.

The Saladino campaign condemns this behavior and vows to “pursue all legal means to prevent this from occurring for other candidates regardless of political affiliation.”

BLP reported on Saladino becoming the first American YouTuber to enter the political arena as a congressional candidate.

Saladino has positioned himself as the pro-small business and pro-worker candidate for New York’s 11th district.

On top of that, Saladino has called for a more rational approach to mass migration, an issue that has galvanized nationalist movements worldwide due to its negative social and economic effects.

With what’s at stake in the 2020 elections, New York needs a strong alternative to the political status quo. Not politics as usual.

Saladino’s campaign offers a new approach to New York politics. That’s why Malliotakis and company are engaging in extracurricular smears against Saladino. They know their ideas don’t hold weight against Saladino’s robust America First platform.
