Social media has become the boon and
the bane of our political culture. Conservatives have a new, profound voice to
go around and take down the media like never before. Overcoming the liberal
chokehold of the liberal mainstream media, we the conservatives, the
constitutionalists, the consistent libertarians are punching away at the stale,
imposing media narrative. We got tired of hearing how great Barack Obama was,
especially when Breitbart, Townhall.com, and the rest reported how untrue the
narrative turned out to be.

Besides, when illegal aliens have
taken your job or killed your kid, there is no amount of media-driven
propaganda that can regain your trust or assure your confidence in the liberal
talking points.

Social media’s bane has become more
prominent, too, and in ways that I had never expected. First, let me address
the rising Anti-Semitism. I frequently post pro-Israel statements on my media
profiles. I do not apologize for being a Zionist, and a vocal supporter of the
only stable democracy in the Middle East. Enduring the Obama Administration, I
wished that Benjamin Netanyahu were my president. Fortunately, President Trump
has forged a renewed, stronger relationship with Israel.

Today, social media explodes with
anti-Semitic, anti-Zionist hate more frequently than I care to admit. One of my
tweets about Israel induced a unique firestorm of anti-Zionist hate. The hate I
have witnessed on social media against Jews is pretty appalling. At
Politicon 2017, Ben Shapiro had to address this disconcerting
trend. At least we could talk about it, but the hatred of Jews and the attacks
on Israel are getting heated and more prevalent. Why? Anonymity and efficiency
to spread one’s message could not be easier because of social media. Should we
block it? In my opinion, no. The best defense to false or inflammatory speech
is … more speech.

Which brings me to the other threat
looming over media: censorship. Twice in one week I have been blocked from
posting on my Facebook profile. What?! What’s worse, Latinos for Trump like
Harim Uzziel and Robert “Latino Heat” Herrera have been routinely blocked from
posting their Facebook Live videos, articles, and other daily observations.
Why? Illegals and their “law-abiding” amnesty-pandering supporters were
reporting their posts, then getting them blocked. Latinos who support Trump
detonate the left-wing narrative that opposition to illegal immigration is
racist. Uzziel, an outspoken and outstanding Latino for Trump in
LA, California, and perhaps even the country–is also Jewish, and proudly so.
Are these attacks anti-Semitic, too?

The same censorship applies to
Islam. Pamela Geller’s Facebook pagewas shut down,
then brought back following a large outcry. On the other hand, a close friend
of mine—another Latina for Trump in Los Angeles–reported a Facebook page whose title read as follows:
Mexican Pride Group: Kill All White People. The response she received from
Facebook? The Community Standards review determined that there was nothing
wrong. Really. If you don’t believe me, read the attached photo (see above).

This ongoing censorship and
repression of different points of view is not new, but only now is the growing,
effective conservative movement taking note and fighting back. First Twitter
came for Charles Johnson of GotNews.com. Then they took down Milo’s verified
blue checkmark. Then Milo’s Twitter feed was suspended for good over a media
battle discussing the crappy feminist version of “The Ghostbusters.” A
meandering movie that got poor ticket sales and no reviews led to Free Speech
provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos’ Twitter-demise.

And it has gotten worse. Hunter Avallone
of Maryland, a post-Millennial taking on the liberal-progressive Pharisees of
our day, lost his Twitter handle, too. Paul Joseph Watson, Dennis Prager, and
others have reported the subtle censorship of their YouTube videos. Watson’s
latest report outlines YouTube’s officious oversight with the
left-wing Anti-Defamation League, which has deemed Pepe the Frog an
anti-Semitic symbol.

Have we forgotten the leading
conservative media lights who met with Facebook leaders to confront their media
bias? The conservatives approached the meeting with intentions of negotiating
some standard of fairness. So much for that approach. Now social media
censorship has gotten dangerously close to home. For the past month and a half,
I’ve worked freelance as a guerrilla journalist with Joshua Caplan through
Vessel News. I’ve gone places with Facebook Live, exposing illegal alien town
halls hosted by our own federal officials, including Congressman Lou Correa of Santa Ana, CA,
as well as raucous events in city council meetings and during Trump supporter
celebrations.

Now Caplan reports that his
viewership reach has been cut down because other Facebook pages are losing
their own reach and influence. Caplan had agreements with other Facebook page
news sites, but they have recently cut the contracts since Facebook is coming
down hard on them. Add to The Gateway Pundit’s lament about Facebook throttling Jim Hoft’s potential reading traffic, you can
tell that Facebook has become Fascist-Book.

Within the last 24 hours, I learned
that Dinesh D’Souza’s own Facebook was compromised, scuttling his outreach as
well as the sales of his new book “The Big Lie,” exposing the totalitarian
tendencies of the American Progressive Movement, which infiltrated the
Democratic Party leading up to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s administration.
They also inspired the Nazis under Adolf Hitler. Of course, this very serious
message accompanied that latest update from D’Souza: “I’ve been hearing of this
happening to a lot of people, though most often it’s Facebook itself taking
their pages down.”

Pretty heavy stuff. For decades, the
Saul Alinsky approach of shaming conservatives had successfully silenced the
Right. Now that we are bolder than ever to speak, the Regressive Left is
working overtime to suppress freedom of speech. If not through violence or the
passage of draconian anti-free speech ordinances, they can pressure or assume
the leadership over these multi-media platforms and shut down dissent and
discourse. Enough. The next leg of the New Right, New Tea Party fight means
targeting and taking on these social media platforms. We cannot afford to lose,
since we have gained so much already.
