4. FACE BOOK WHISTLE-BLOWER .
I think it's another kind of story that only can leave you wondering . RECENTLY AS I WRITE THIS (15)>>FACE BOOK had a MYSTERIOUS OUTAGE. It took it down world wide , PLUS FB stock lost BILLIONS . I think all this going on is on purpose , IS there something more going on , or it's just coincidence ??? You guys all realize that the media is pushing this "Facebook whistleblower" story in order to pressure Facebook into further suppressing conservative content, right? That's 100 percent the only reason that they're talking about this.
It should make you skeptical of why she doesn't want to harm facebook though. The Face Book whistleblower Frances Haugen called for transparency about how Facebook entices users to extend their stay on the site, giving them ample opportunity to advertise to them. What Haugan said makes no sense at all. (16)>>FACE BOOK is ALREADY CENSORING content. According to a since deleted LinkedIn profile Haugen was a product manager at Facebook assigned to the Civic Integrity group. She chose to leave the company in 2021 after the dissolving of the group. She said she didn’t “trust that they’re willing to invest what actually needs to be invested to keep Facebook from being dangerous." (17)>>I think the Haugan testimony is just another psyop , a distraction . Even if you heard how FB manipulates young girls via Instagram sounds totally suspicious . A lot of problems Fb is facing now are common among all social medias. You don't even need to go so far to 4chan. Just look at some threads at worldnews or China and you are bound to see some toxic discussion. Fb got most criticisms because they are the biggest. However, once Reddit and other platforms grow further in size, they will face the same scrutinies. (18)>>Let's not forget that FB is facing multiple lawsuits internationally . Not being off topic Haugan really wants MORE CENSORSHIP , there is not enough . It’s also probably why she’s one of the only whistleblowers to be invited to testify to the Senate. I’m sure Democrats love the idea of a Facebook insider telling them the company needs more regulation to stop “hate speech” and “disinformation” — which is what she’s clearly called for in recent interviews.She’s far from the first Big Tech whistleblower to expose Silicon Valley’s inner workings — but she is one of the first to call for more censorship, not less. That’s probably why the establishment media has embraced her with open arms.Despite its vast apparatus of censorship, the politically biased “fact checking” apparatus, the bans of prominent conservative influencers, the ban of Donald Trump himself, Haugen thinks the platform isn’t taking down enough “dangerous” content. REALLY ????? NOW HERE is get BIZARRE what she said in her testimony .Haugen claims the root of the problem is the algorithims rolled out in 2018 that govern what you see on the platform. According to her they are meant to drive engagement and the company has found that the best engagement is the kind instilling fear and hate in users. “Its easier to inspire people to anger than it is to other emotions,” Hagen said. It's LIKE SHE is saying that FB is somehow using subliminal messages in it's advertising to instill fear and hate .How can anyone believe what she is saying ???. Now the idea of addiction to FB is ludicrous , but what can you expect out of a general population who use social media . Haugen is PROBABLY a Shill probably hired by someone to come out as a whistleblower , go to congress , give a well scripted testimony as for the federal government to expand it's powers to regulate FREE SPEECH on Social Media .

| You'd think that Frances Haugen , a FB whistle-blower would be against censorship ...Noooo she calling for more . |
LAST WORDS ON THESE OBSERVATIONS :
Observation the next few months as the year closes ALL HELL is going to break loose on this Country
[ America] . I have this feeling inside of me that our political system is crashing . The Federal Budget for one is really bankrupt , you can't raise the debt ceiling any longer . Even Biden's infrastructure plan looks more like "crumbs" when you really expect the government to more and spend more for the American people . Out of that 3 trillion dollars only a billion of those dollars goes to the American people , but all of that goes to the poor , undocumented illegals . The Middle Class can't get a tax cut under the Biden plan , rather than a tax cut Biden is trying to use the IRS to go after the Middle Class to look into their bank accounts . AS FOR the "coming" lock-downs , the Australian model is the most extreme . It will never end surely. 82,000 tests, 100 cases and 1 death. Even with 100% of the country vaccinated, you’re going to probably have 100 cases and 1 death because it’s not 100% protective and you still catch it.Therefore I’m not sure what Australia’s plan is, but they aren’t going to have a country left soon. This is CAN HAPPEN TO AMERICA . Even though , 60 % of the population has been vaccinated , we have cases approaching 1 million , soon we are going to see more people dying , hearing about vaccinated people dying who "caught covid " while the government told YOU you were 99 % vaccine immune . CALIFORNIA RE ZONING , to build more housing for the homeless , SERIOUSLY ??? Homelessness exists all over the UNITED STATES it's more of a problem with how much density is in a state , so as Gov. Newsom signed these bills to increase density in single home units . How about addressing affordability ? So to me it's all about real estate $$$ revenues , the gimmick by converting a single home into four units would quadruple taxes on a given property . Still will any of these new rezoned home units be in the reach of the real "homeless" no . The Homeless will probably live in tent cities , or in mini houses camps . The rest of the new real-estate will probably go to the more affluent middle class or Section 8 development . THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN is COMEDY OF ERRORS . The debt ceiling has become a kind of apocalyptic Groundhog Day in American life. Everyone knows that breaching the ceiling would be almost incomprehensibly bad, if you’ve heard this one before: in less than a month, the US will hit the debt ceiling, a legal limit on how much outstanding debt the federal government can hold. The Democratic president and his party want to raise it, but Republicans in Congress are promising to block them. If nothing happens, the debt ceiling will be breached and the US likely plunged into recession.FACE BOOK WHISTLE-BLOWER .The social media giant hurts America and the world, this narrative maintains, by permitting misinformation to spread (presumably more so than cable outlets and mainstream newspapers do virtually every week); fostering body image neurosis in young girls through Instagram (presumably more so than fashion magazines . HARD TO BELIEVE . Far from threatening Facebook and Google, such a legal change could be the greatest gift one can give them, which is why their executives are often seen calling on Congress to regulate the social media industry. Any legal scheme that requires every post and comment to be moderated would demand enormous resources — gigantic teams of paid experts and consultants to assess "misinformation” and "hate speech” and veritable armies of employees to carry out their decrees. MORE CENSORSHIP. I would be writing MORE . I guess I was writing my LIMIT to what is going RIGHT NOW . SO you have to stay tuned for my NEXT October Thoughts . PART 2. These comments below are an extension of my thoughts above .
NOTES AND COMMENTS :
(1)>>But there is a vary scant news on what has been going on in Australia. It's ALL SPECULATION HERE , we could be heading the Aussie way . People are sawing NO WAY AMERICA will do nation wide LOCK DOWN AGAIN .The Australian military was also deployed this summer to enforce lockdowns in Sydney, the nation’s largest city.Sydney has been in lockdown since June 26 and Melbourne since Aug. 5. The capital territory of Canberra locked down on Aug. 12 after one positive test stemming from Sydney emerged. Right now according to the daily death counts the US has already reached 700,000 ! The US has a higher daily case count than the whole of Australia combined . SO think what is going on now mirrors Australia . BUT Australia's 25 million people are in lock down, and a slow vaccination program has left many demanding to know what went wrong. Right now most of the Australian population is protesting the Vaccine and Mask mandates .For a time, "we were in a bit of a Covid-free paradise," said Michael Toole, a professor at the Burnet Institute, a medical research center. "And I think it led to a level of complacency, both within the government and among the public. ... Now, it's all a mess."(2)>>Florida Gov. DeSantis condemned Australia recently. Speaking at the International Boatbuilders Exhibition in Tampa. DeSantis lamented the strict pandemic approach from one of the United States’ closest allies.“That’s not a free country. It’s not a free country at all,” DeSantis said. “In fact, I wonder why we would still have the same diplomatic relations when they’re doing that. Is Australia freer than communist China right now? I don’t know. The fact that that’s even a question tells you something has gone dramatically off the rails with some of this stuff.”DeSantis has garnered national attention throughout the pandemic for opposing pandemic-fighting policies that could impact personal freedoms, from lockdowns to mask and vaccine mandates. His critiques of President Joe Biden have helped him emerge as a front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination should he choose to run.White House Chief Medical Adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci has been a frequent target of DeSantis’ criticism. The initial “15 Days to Slow the Spread” from March 2020 has turned into waiting for vaccination rates to reach a high bar.(3)>>1984 was a warning. Published 70 years ago this Saturday, the novel serves as a warning against absolute power of all kinds, against the manipulation of language, against the loss of independent thought. In 1949, critics thought the book might lose its relevance after the fall of communism. Here we are, 70 years later, with global authoritarianism on the rise, and fake news — and the manipulation of that very term itself — tearing at the fabric of democracy.We the U.S. are in Late stage “capitalism”, and Modern Liberalism, the path this will take us down is scary. I want to be wrong, but I do not see how I am wrong, and I would like you to tell me how I am wrong.It’s all word play, changing the definition of racism, vaccines, feminism, liberalism. It's insane in my eyes. Because modern liberalism is just an insanely toxic childhood which makes you put others, and “groups' ' of others in front of your own well being. This is why we see so many fat, weirdly shaped, nerdy, mentally unwell at these antifa rallies. They think they are doing good, but in reality the only way they can do good is by fixing themselves first and nobody taught them that. The amount of people that died in this U.S. pandemic is the same as how many died when there was no pandemic. The same cannot be said for South American countries and African countries. The third world is completely dying as millions of South Americans flee to the U.S for food. And we are letting them right in. The amount of starving people has doubled in the time this pandemic has taken place. These countries are falling apart from these very “lockdowns”. I read 1984 in school for a reason. It’s because that's how they want the future to be, and they are slowly but surely winning this battle everyday. (4)>>At first, the goal of restrictions was to “flatten the curve”.“The hardest part of 15 days to flatten the curve is living under a totalitarian government 245 days later.”Pfizer CEO now claims "three booster shoots per year." How is that "two weeks to flatten the curve" thing working out for ya? From day one, Pfizer and Moderna's plan was that people would be forced to get COVID boosters about once every 2 weeks in order to participate in society. They're not even going to stop at once every four months. Those videos that were coming out of China in early 2020 were either hoaxes by China or we got a different virus. People were just collapsing and convulsing in the street. There was a hospital ward that looked like a zombie movie, the works. At the very first report of the virus being in the US, I started wearing masks. People looked at me like a psycho and co-workers were berating me that the CDC said masks don't work. Then CDC did their little flippy flop, oh masks are actually good, we just didn't want to tell the entire populace so that hospitals could get some. Then a month later, masks are now mandatory! At this point, I'm just tired of the whole thing.(5)>>COVID-19 test results, the delays could grow as flu symptoms boost demand. AS I SAID BEFORE the FLU has not gone away ! Doctors expect the flu season to be rough this year, and with it comes another challenge: Figuring out whether your symptoms point to the flu, Covid-19 or something else. THE FLU is really the GATEWAY VIRUS . If you get the flu it's VARY HIGHLY you can get COVID -19 . But the era of COVID-19 has put an end to those times. Symptoms of COVID-19 and flu can be similar. Someone who guesses wrong could spread COVID-19. The only way to be sure is to get tested.SO ARE THE TESTS ACCURATE ???Flu symptoms often include fever, chills and body aches. COVID-19 symptoms are often similar but might include shortness of breath and loss of sense of taste and smell.While it’s possible for vaccinated people to become infected.But with intense focus still on COVID-19 vaccinations and boosters, this will be the first time that many people will be juggling inoculations for both respiratory diseases — leading to new questions about the effects, duration and timing of the flu shot.Flu season varies, but typically it starts in November, peaks between December and February, and lasts through March.(6)>>I am watching America every day and saying ‘what the hell is going on over there?’ . I bring up the United States’ failure, again, because in recent weeks a bunch of Americans opposed to lockdowns and other public health measures have taken it upon themselves to lecture Australia about its Covid policies.“Heretofore an honourable member of the free world, Australia ‘has lurched into a bizarre and disturbing netherworld of bureaucratic oppression in the name of public health,” wrote National Review editor Rich Lowry, denouncing Australia’s “Covid lockdown mania”.Some of America’s most prominent TV hosts labelled Australia a “Covid dictatorship”.And you might have already seen the viral meme posted by the Texas Freedom Coalition, which described Australia as “the world’s largest prison”.(7)>>it’s becoming clear the vaccines didn’t get rid of . Essentially, people hospitalized for COVID-19 are not being treated for COVID-19, they are being treated for its symptoms, which are what kills the most people. Instead, they are coming to the conclusion that rather than making a long-promised exit, the virus will most likely become a manageable threat that will continue to circulate in the United States for years to come, still causing hospitalizations and deaths but in much smaller numbers.(8)>>The vaccines were supposed to be a way out. The other reason eradication of COVID-19 is unlikely is that even if we were able to stop transmission among humans, we have multiple examples where there have been outbreaks among animals that humans come into regular contact with, such as in mink farms. So the likelihood is that you would have circulation among animals that can readily reintroduce the virus into human population. So I think it's quite likely that SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 are not going to go away.Since the COVID virus began spreading in late 2019, cases have often surged for about two months — sometimes because of a variant, such as delta — and then declined for about two months.Public health researchers do not understand why. Many popular explanations — such as seasonality or the ebbs and flows of mask wearing and social distancing — are clearly insufficient, if not wrong. The two-month cycle has occurred during different seasons of the year and occurred even when human behavior was not changing in obvious ways.(9)>>The mainstream media gas lighted people. Gaslighting has always been with us and may feel more noticeable to some as the pandemic continues. As information about COVID-19 and the vaccine has become politicized, heated arguments between people with widely diverging convictions have become more common, creating an environment in which one side might respond by invalidating the experiences of the other. THE media establishment remains bound and determined to weaponize COVID at every turn against their political enemies. I use the word enemies intentionally as they are perpetually in political campaign mode like they’re fighting a political opponent. Press conferences have become a disgrace. It has been beyond embarrassing in recent weeks to see the “where’s Tate?” and “why won’t he tell people to get vaccinated” gaslighting stories when he’s done so repeatedly publicly for months including on camera, repeatedly, every time he’s been in public the last few weeks (every two or three days).(10)>>The U.S. Government runs out of money.Government shutdown, big circus and arguments to convince the general public that those in charge actually care, then they raise the debt ceiling and we wait for the next one. The $28.4 trillion debt limit was reinstated Aug. 1. Since then, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has been keeping the nation's finances afloat by using emergency accounting maneuvers. Known as "extraordinary measures," these steps allow the government to borrow additional funds without breaching the debt ceiling.This so-called X-date should be viewed as a best guess by Treasury, not a set-in-stone deadline based on exact science. In other words, America could hit the debt ceiling days before, or days after, Oct. 18.They print more also they are already out of moneyIt's important to note that this increases inflation. A little bit of inflation is actually a good thing, but too much causes problems. 99% of the time you see a country's currency undergo hyperinflation it's because they started printing an absurd amount of money to pay off debts they couldn't handle.So while it may not be an imminent problem, it is something that will eventually need to be taken care of.(11)>>Although it screams conspiracy theory. BY THE second week of the government shutdown, and while the right is still confused about whether the shutdown is a good thing, one thing is certain: any and all negative repercussions from it are not only Democrats' fault, but the result of a "sadistic" master plan to turn the American people against the Republican Party. Joe Biden's 666 " It will take six days , six weeks or six months " to resolve the "shutdown" .That, in turn, was imperiling a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill that was scheduled for a House vote . Biden signed a bill to avert a possible shutdown. The back-to-back votes by the Senate and then the House averted one crisis, but delays on another continue as the political parties dig in on a dispute over how to raise the government's borrowing cap before the United States risks a potentially catastrophic default.(12)>>Washington is as divided as ever. But the United States has faced great unrest, uncertainty and divisions before, and even in quiet times, discord is constantly rippling beneath the surface.The divisions between Republicans and Democrats on fundamental political values – on government, race, immigration, national security, environmental protection and other areas – reached record levels during Barack Obama’s presidency. In Donald Trump’s first year as president, these gaps have grown even larger.And the magnitude of these differences dwarfs other divisions in society, along such lines as gender, race and ethnicity, religious observance or education.That means more divided government is probably imminent, and the electoral pattern we’ve become all too familiar with — a pendulum swinging back and forth between unified control of government and divided government — is doomed to repeat, with increasingly dangerous consequences for our democracy. (13)>>Congress must raise the debt ceiling. Raising the debt ceiling would add to the total national debt but does not authorize new federal spending. President Joe Biden said the federal government could breach its $28.4 trillion debt limit in a historic default unless Republicans join Democrats in voting to raise it in the two next weeks.Asked if he could guarantee the United States won't breach the debt limit, the president answered: "No, I can't. That's up to Mitch McConnell." He said he intended to speak with McConnell about the matter.The debt limit is the maximum amount of debt that Treasury can issue to pay the country’s bills. It was suspended from 2019 through the beginning of last month under a deal reached during the Trump administration. If Congress fails to increase the debt limit, Treasury would be unable to pay debts as they come due.Failure to raise the debt limit would have catastrophic impacts on global financial markets. Interest rates would spike as investors demand a higher rate of return for the risk of taking on U.S. debt given uncertainty about repayment. An increase in interest rates would ripple through the economy, raising costs not only for taxpayers but also for consumers and other borrowers. The value of the U.S. dollar would also decline long term as investors questioned the security of purchasing U.S. treasuries. The cost of auto and home loans would rise.(14)>>YOU PASS BILLS TO REZONE PROPERTY .These are two incredibly bad and unpopular laws. Almost zero homeowners in the state wants this. Newsom cowardly waited until after the recall to sign them. Newsom has made fighting homelessness a centerpiece of his administration and said he was spurred to even more urgency by a recall election that threatened to unseat him. Nearly two-thirds of voters rejected the effort to remove Newsom, according to unofficial election returns Newsom also signed a bill allowing more housing density in areas near public transit. Both bills will take effect Jan. 1 but neither is likely to produce the supply of new housing that experts have said California needs to erase years of pent-up demand.The most controversial of the new laws, Senate Bill 9, will allow up to four new housing units on a single property in certain neighborhoods that are currently zoned for standalone houses only. The law places limits on new construction in neighborhoods designated as historic. Tenants in existing homes would also have legal protections from being displaced. For lots that are split into two parcels, a homeowner must agree to live on the premises.I could see the only impacting neighborhoods with lower priced homes and properties. I don’t think any developer is buying a $1 million dollar property and then spending money to renovate or build a multifamily property with “affordable” units. But I could see maybe this happening where a developer buys a $400,000 property and then charging double that amount for any replacement units.And not one word on how the state's dwindling water supplies are supposed to accommodate the increased population? It's not so much population as toilets. When you split a property into two residences, you double the number of water-hungry appliances: kitchens, toilets, laundry rooms. This has got to stop. California is already overpopulated for the increasingly strained resources. (15)>>A boon for property developers!!!!! IF YOU LIVE IN CALIFORNIA a apartment , duplex a house is so out of the affordability of people . It's the opposite of cheap.It is unreasonable to expect a developer who spends millions of dollars to build an apartment complex to give you a cheap rental unless it is built with a massive subsidy. You don't sell $10 hamburgers for $2.The primary determinant of the cost of real estate is the cost of land. The primary determinant of the cost of land is the quantity of people who want to own or rent it. Since you can't do much to increase the quantity of land, you need to reduce the demand for it. You reduce the demand by encouraging people to find other places to go. desirability really means jobs. no one wants to move to rural Kansas because there are few opportunities. apartments are expensive here because people are able to pay that much, whether or not they can afford to pay that much is another thing. the same goes for house prices. we've zoned for plenty of high earning jobs, but failed to zone for the necessary housing to supply the demand of those high earners as well as the demand of the low earners. as a result, high earners and low earners compete in the same housing pool, and a shithole apartment is only $200 less a month than new construction across the street or across town..(14)>>Is this going to survive Covid, or are the coming mass evictions and subsequent out migration. The housing "shortage" has nothing to do with California's "homeless" problem. The so-called "unhoused" are in their situation primarily for two reasons: drug addiction and mental illness, often both. In surveys in SF that appears to account for about 80% of the problem.California's problem is not that it has a shortage of housing, but rather that it has a surplus of people. As just one example, the estimated number of illegal immigrants in California --"undocumented" if you like -- is approximately equal to the claimed numerical shortfall in housing units.Meanwhile, those who cry NIMBY! are the actual NIMBYists: they want to put something in someone ELSE's back yard, but are annoyed that the targets don't like it.The new law, if successfully implemented will probably help a little, because even more people will leave California due to unliveable conditions.(15)>>FACE BOOK had a MYSTERIOUS OUTAGE. Yeah I wonder if it's an attack or something.Or a employee tired of all the evil with admin privileges. That would be legit.THE OUTAGE IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE If they caught someone doing that tho imagine the sheer number of lawsuits. They'd bring that corporate legal down like a hammer. I cannot even fathom how much money per minute they are losing right now. This is a global outage. It's TOO UNCANNY how the outage was explained . The Face Book black out is being treated as if a nuke went off somewhere , if a big tech giant has so much control over other social media . To add salt to the wound, facebook employees who were responding to this outage have reported that their ID badges to get into the building no longer unlock the doors. It's unlikely that an RFID or similar badge system would require internet access to perform its necessary functions, so seeing as it's incredibly likely that these are two different security flaws happening shortly after a major whistleblower came forward agaisnt Facebook is too coincidental. This really looks like an attack.(16)>>FACE BOOK is ALREADY CENSORING content. Two years ago, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg stood at a podium at Georgetown University and staunchly defended free speech. “Whether you like Facebook or not, we need to recognize what is at stake and come together to stand for free expression at this critical moment,” he said. Now the social network is opening up about its decision-making over which posts it decides to take down — and why the company for the first time published its 27 page of guidelines it calls Community Standards which gives to its workforce of thousands of human censors. It encompasses dozens of topics including hate speech, violent imagery, misrepresentation, terrorist propaganda and disinformation. Facebook said it would offer users the opportunity to appeal Facebook’s decisions.The company’s censors, called content moderators, have been chastised by civil rights groups for mistakenly removing posts by minorities who had shared stories of being the victims of racial slurs. Moderators have struggled to tell the difference between someone posting a slur as an attack and someone using the slur to tell the story of their own victimization.(17)>>I think the Haugan testimony is just another psyop , a distraction . This WHOLE FACEBOOK THING is a CROCK of CONTRADICTIONS MY READERS .I don't like the way they are farming it. They are trying to call for MORE government control on speech (which btw is exactly what facebook wants, so they don't have the liability).Yeah look at the new sources reporting on it like she is some hero. She was part of thought police within facebook. Facebook is evil, she happily worked there until they got past election and loosened reigns on speech and ideas.She also shared new allegations — not previously covered in the WSJ’s extensive reporting — about Facebook allegedly relaxing its standards on misinformation after the 2020 presidential elections, shortly ahead of the January 6 riots at the US Capitol. Her whole "testimony" is in the guise of public safety. (18)>>Let's not forget that FB is facing multiple lawsuits internationally . Face Book is sued up the HILL on fronts . ITS VARY STRANGE THAT THE WHISTLE BLOWER appears when. Facebook is to be sued in Europe over the major leak of user data that dates back to 2019 but which only came to light recently after information on more than 533 million accounts was found posted for free download on a hacker forum.Today Digital Rights Ireland (DRI) announced it’s commencing a “mass action” to sue Facebook, citing the right to monetary compensation for breaches of personal data that’s set out in the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The multiple lawsuits are even the U.S.US regulators and 48 attorneys general are limbering up for what promises to be the biggest legal battle against a US company in decades. Letitia James, the New York attorney general who is spearheading one of two lawsuits against Facebook, this week accused the social network of abusing its “dominance and monopoly power to crush smaller rivals, snuff out competition, all at the expense of everyday users.”
