Censorship on PS.Com

[Penn]

A few days ago, I made a post here that caused an Administrator to contact me via a PM.

The administrator requested that I correct my usage of a symbol that I used in place of a letter to creatively spell a word.

The symbol used in the spelling of the word fully captures the inherent structure of the organization with the presentation of the symbol, rather than a letter, as the symbol is extremely powerful and expresses in one key stoke, what otherwise would require volumes of unnecessary, heretofore, proven behavior of those who have rallied under its banner.

It appears the symbol offended the anonymous individual, who for whatever reasons, lacks the ability to directly confront my convention and usage to argue their point of contention, and would rather remain in the dark. In essence, exercising control over the board and subverting for all intent and purposes, the very act of expression that most here willingly chose to defend with full knowledge and at the risk of their lives.

In the few days that have pass, this incident of censorship has gnawed at my sensibility of free speech. The more this Veteran (me), that signed 3 enlistment contracts to defend and protect the Constitution of these United States and as a free man, I in my whole mind and every inch of my intellectual capacity, would rather fight and lose his place here among those who have done the same and more to serve this Nation, I raise my voice in defiance at those who would censor and hide under the guise of anonymity, using others to do their bidding out of fear of exposure, or as a means of silencing to gather authority they do not deserve, and control what they are incapable of claiming through valid opposition.

That said, it is my opinion and unalienable right to state that the spelling of this word, in this manner, full captures, embodies, and positively identifies the current and inherent state of the D卐M☭CRATic Party. From it’s embrace of ANTIFA, to the corruption of the social norm, in addition to every agency in US Government that has been politicized, from the bogus J6 to open borders and the undermining of the Armed Forces via a corrupted weak and Woke leadership. The D卐M☭CRATic party has proven it is filled with Nazis and communist and is intent on destroying the freedoms that are guarantee through the Constitution of these United States.

Prove me wrong, I’ll wait here for the coward who thinks that their poor choice in censorship would go unanswered, and that I would capitulate by being place in a position of being banned on this site for expressing the truth of what has become of the D卐M☭CRATic party.

Sincerely, and respectfully, I stand my ground.
Dennis M. Foy Sr.

Edit to correct sentence structure.

If you don't think the 'rats are out to destroy this country and our way of life, you simply aren't paying attention. The republicans aren't any better - they'll just bleed you more slowly. In the end, it is all the same: more debt, more illegals, more crime, more destruction of the family, freedom, and religion. Until there is only the State......

From Penn; "Prove me wrong, I’ll wait here for the coward who thinks that their poor choice in censorship would go unanswered, and that I would capitulate by being place me in a position of being banned on this site for expressing the truth of what has become of the D卐M☭CRATic party".

A good recent example is the dem party, or members of, taking Trumps name off the ballot..and HE's the threat to Democracy??? He hasn't even been convicted of anything... LMFOA (not really)...sadly, somehow, people will follow and not stand up to tyranny...

It seems pretty fitting since the overwhelming majority of left-leaning political parties in the USA are far more representative of Staliinesque Communism, European Fascism, or outright Maoism than the Western concept of liberty and freedom. While I cannot find a reference in the APA or MLA writing manuals, I would think either spelling (with or without the symbols) could be considered correct.

The problem is - far too many Americans have been duped into believing what is a "bait and switch" definition of the word "peace" by the current crop of globailst warmongering politicians...
...peace in the classic sense is just that - people being left alone to live their best life on their own terms
...peace to a leftist is the silencing of dissent

YMMV

This thought often causes me to despair. The decay taking place makes me wonder what the future holds for our republic. The Republican leadership certainly can’t/ won’t take a hard stand. Is it too late to “reach” the electorate, in a meaningful sense, or have we crossed the Rubicon?

[JimP]

I sincerely do not believe there is a peaceful way out of this.

It's too late to hope for a peaceful resolution, and too early to start shooting.

Bide your time, prepare yourself, keep your powder dry and hatchet scoured.

Uncertain of how the new year will unfold, I am concerned that the political climate will increase the emotional temperature for those who lack the stamina of patience.

imoo, all that has transpired since 2007 with the placement of Obama as the D卐M☭CRATic party leader has one purpose, and that is as stated by him: to fundamentally change America.
He has for all intent and purpose accomplished a great deal in that regard, as the D卐M☭CRATic party embraced the Maoist successful social revolution of identity political exclusion.

The process where one is or is not made whole in the social good, and the social good is defined by those who control social perception/opinion, through the subconscious conduit of self-worth and acceptance in the social order, that is disseminated within the social consciousness of society, through in group identity inclusion or exclusion.

The current mode of validation is via MSM and all that it entails, and is best example by the Gobbles reincarnate Mark Zuckerberg, ubiquitous FB and Instagram ability to influence and drive the discourse that defines social acceptance.

It is not by accident that we find ourselves in a defensive argument, when colloquially in social terms, all that you have identified with has been deemed divisive or unworthy. The concepts of social values that hold conservative viewpoints regarding nationhood, family, religion, merit, equalness in law, in addition to the mirror image of self-worth that is reflected in the social order that is foundational in social underpinnings of any society.

Society is culture. It is the history of its populaces. For the United States the social construct has been inclusion, under the Heralded banner of - bring us your tired, your poor your huddled masses, yearning to be free – has been inverted, used as a weapon to separate the goodness that is inherently Christian American, the foundation of the republic, as xenophobic, racial, emanating from a white supremacy that originated in its founding in 1492.

Attacking the social construction of any society is an act of undermining legitimacy, whereby the social: political, religious, and norms are validated or disenfranchise.

The social conflict engineered currently is racially based, rooted in the emancipation of slavery that has engulfed this nation since its founding. A civil war and much of the legal proceeding since Plessy vs Ferguson, separate but equal, which was exceptionally unequal, ending with Brown in 1954, is presented today, not as social progression, moving the whole of society into the future, but as a continuation of the prejudicial nation founded on a belief system that is white and Christian.




Regardless of its merits, the conflict/argument attacking the social construction of America has nothing to do with justice or rightfulness. The argument finds its footing in the emotionally charged atmosphere of racial equity.

Equity, socially and economically, is the socialist points of departure that validate the radical contention to burn it all down.

A nation founded by White Christians, that designed a social order based on merit and God given abilities, each to his own, with a constitution written by, and adopted by, White Christians, who also were slave owners is the bedrock divergence employed to silence all decent as an indefensible augment confronting social equality, or a socialist based society.

Understanding the social manipulation for a just society is the same argument employed in Just War Theory that forces capsulation due to inherent guilt established in the founding that justifies the attack To Overcome By Any Means

Jus ad bellum (moral justifications for going to war) requires that the cause for war is just; the right authority makes the decision; the decision is made with the right intention of bringing about peace; the war is a last resort; the overall evil of the war does not outweigh the good.

Deplorable, Conservative, White, Christian, MAGA, are the identity verb political language Obama employed and the D卐M☭CRATic Party embraced, are Maoist in origin. Formed to isolate and brand those who are anti-inclusive to a just/equal society as racist. Thus, creating identity politics that invalidated the social good achieved through the civil rights movement and MLK.Jr., and regarding any black American who held those principles as an Uncle Tom!

The socialist technique to alter society can only be achieve and be understood generationally.

Generational control can only be achieved through educational indoctrination.

Educational indoctrination is the D卐M☭CRATic Parties only concern, all other distraction are orchestrated to deflect attention away from the control of the education system, which is now designed to contest the social good/justice rooted in America’s racist past. In effect, silencing all decent and affording/controlling the educational system, the socialist future ensured, this is the bedrock principle that the D卐M☭CRATic Party has been focused on since the 1950’s.

Now actualized, we see the fruits of the D卐M☭CRATic agenda in the uninformed protest that support transgenderism, antisemitism, and non-gender birth identity, that found an audience in the cuddled masses of a merit based middle America. A Populace that arguably, has known no hardship since the depression of the 1930’s, regardless of the WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and the current WWOT, America has prospered. While doing so, the D卐M☭CRATic party has not lost its focus on controlling the educational system.

Porn in school libraries, trans bathrooms, racial tensions via CRT, are all designed to distract attention away from the core indoctrination, one that highlights those racist/sexual distraction as illustration of an unjust society, made whole through the concept of a socialist based system of equality.

Oh, I almost forgot: Happy New Year, love and kisses, Penn.

If I may cautiously throw in my $0.02 worth - I think there's an important element we might be missing here.

Firstly, I couldn't agree with Penn more regarding free speech. And it deeply concerns me that a PS.com site admin felt the need to correct Penn for a very wrong reason.

However, I think it may be important to discuss what might be a good reason we do reframe from using this specific "WW2 German symbol"; even if we are using it for a good reason, (i.e. reasons other than a love for the movement the symbol represents).

Here's my argument...

• Whether we like it or not, many of the readers, members, and contributors on PS.com first found PS.com via a search engine search.
  
• And, in turn, future readers, members, and contributors will likely continue to be firstly introduced to PS.com, and the immense value it contains, by a search engine search.
  
• There is a very real risk that PS.com might be "de-ranked" on search engines if the search engines sees such a symbol being used, even only a few times.
  
• In turn, PS.com, and the immense value it can bring individuals inside the Special Forces community and outside alike, could be lost to many.

Now, don't get me wrong, with Googles "natural language processing" AI, which has been in used since 2019, Google can likely reasonably accurately tell whether the symbol is being used for good or for bad.
However, Google isn't going to take the risk to be seen, even by accident, to be supporting neo-nazi propaganda in any way, and so Google will almost certainly have a blanket ban of ranking pages that use the symbol, and a website will likely risk be de-ranked entirely if found using the symbol even just a few times.

Do with this info what you will, but I thought it important to at least see this from a deferent angle.

To be clear, are you stating that the importance of information found here on PS.Com is of such value to the public good, that self-censoring for that reason alone should warrant the discontinued use of this symbol, that expresses in its use, a parties inherent ethos, that have
been demonstrated publicly, and are easily exampled by the use and support of ANTIFA and the bias one-party membership makeup of the J6 Committee, regardless of truth, that site ranking and value rendered could be lost and that is of more importance than a descripted symbolization of free speech use to emphases what the D卐M☭CRATic party embraces?

Is that correct?

If that is correct, then I heartily disagree. Those who seek this

relationship and knowledge will find it, others who stumble upon us. meh

[Penn]

This thread should be closed. The point of contention has been presented, stated, supported and opposed fairly, any further discussion adds little to no value for anyone here.
