I found out that a dirty community college which I do not work for, and then an arts council, for which I have not connection, conspired to bulldoze my first amendment rights into the ground
Dec 04, 2025
Listen to my interview of two men, Kelly and Kevin, on my show, Finding Fringe: Voices from the Edge on a local radio station (will air Dec. 10) for which I am almost certainly about to be deep-sixed out/off the air since good Little Germans and Little Eichmann’s are part and parcel tied to the Democratic Party backers. And arts councils are usually Genocide Joe & Holocaust Harris backers!
It was KKK level stuff, since my name is also Kirk and Kevin is Kevin and Kelly is Kelly, then it’s an hour of KKK, now is that hate speech?
Well, not that KKK: State representative!
So the people who went to the venue today were told I was cancelled because of something I wrote, and then something about hate speech on Facebook? I have a non-public FB page, plus Fucker-Berg and Meta cancel so called hate speech.
Calling Jews Nazis?
Is that it? Hate? Speech?
Jews are worse than Hitler’s German Nazis? Jews in Israel then, they’re the Nazis? Jews supporting Israel, okay then they too are Nazis? Jews supporting genocide, is that Nazi enough? Those Jews in the Jewish State of Israel carrying out the genocide, okay, just the soldiers and the generals, they’re Nazis? Which category of rhetorical Nazi is hate speech?
And how many fucking Christians and Jews alike do this thought experiment: “If I was young and in Nazi Germany with the rise of Hitler, and if I had a few cohorts, hell, I would have assassinated Hitler and his top henchmen?”
Machetes to all Jews’ necks, err, that is, Jews who support genocide? Or am I limited to only the IOF soldiers bombing schools and hospitals and targeting journalists and doctors? They deserve machetes? Is it Hate SPEECH?
It’s a fucking Substack, folks, a thought experiment writ large, voluntary subscribers, sometimes getting into my rants blended with auto-fiction, blended with polemics and hyperbole and reality therapy and goddamn catharsis, but HATE SPEECH?
All mother fuckers making money from and working for Elbit, do they deserve machetes to the neck? HATE SPEECH? Hmm, how about . . . these fucking Jewish Terrorists of the Tech and Gestapo and Stasi kind? For instance . . .
Following this early financing from investors close to Israel’s intelligence establishment, the company went on to receive hundreds of millions in investment from a network of US venture capital firms with intelligence links to Israel.
These include Palo Alto-based Accel Partners, which has invested in more than thirty Israeli tech companies, including another Unit 8200 cyber spin-out, Oasis. Nir Blumberger, an Israeli who served in the IDF, was recruited by Accel from Facebook to open its Tel Aviv office in 2016.
Other Axonius backers include San Francisco-headquartered Bessemer Venture Partners which employs former Israeli intelligence operatives in a Tel Aviv office led by Adam Fisher. An American who emigrated to Israel in 1998, Fisher has acted as an intermediary between Zionists in Silicon Valley and the IDF, and during the genocide gave a presentation on how Israel can win the online war. Israeli Amit Karp, a partner at Bessemer Ventures and another former Israeli intelligence officer, sits on the Axonius board.
Menlo Park-based Lightspeed Venture Partners, which has backed Axonius with around $200 million over numerous funding rounds, also has significant ties to Israeli spy units. Yonit Wiseman, a partner at Lightspeed, spent six years in Israeli military intelligence, leaving in 2018. Her colleague, Tal Morgenstern, was a special forces commander in the IDF.
Given the evidence that Axonius is an Israeli intelligence cut-out, the scale of its penetration within the US federal government structure is extraordinary.
The company says its platform is ‘deployed in more than 70 federal organizations’ and is used by four of the five major US Department of Defense service agencies. The US federal government contract award website shows Axonius awards for the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps, which in itself means millions of personnel and their devices.
In November 2024, the company was selected by the Department of Homeland Security to modernize its cybersecurity abilities by centralizing ‘data coming from hundreds of separate data sources residing across dozens of federal, civilian, and executive branch agencies.’ Just a month later, in December 2024, the company was contracted by the Department of Defense to upgrade its system of 24/7 surveillance which oversees all on-site and off-site DoD computers and IT networks, a capability known as ‘continuous monitoring and risk scoring.’ And in April this year Axonius obtained authorization for any US federal agency to use its cloud-based cyber surveillance system.
Other federal departments integrating Axonius software include energy, transportation, the US Treasury and many others. Data from the US spending awards site shows the US Defense Logistics Agency, responsible for managing America’s global weapons supply chain, is the single largest Axonius customer, spending $4.3 million in 2023 alone. The Department of Agriculture has paid nearly $2 million for Axonius tools and the Department of Health and Human Services has spent $1.3 million since 2021.

Look, it’s small potatoes, not being able to give a master class on media literacy, really, media illiteracy and media manipulation, I know, a fucking rural Oregon county, on the coast, and a podunk arts commission whose mission is to water down and placate and provide non-controversial milquetoast crap to the county of Lincoln.
Yeah, I already railed here about my talk being scratched by the powers that be at the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, and now I learn a fucking ice president of the local community college insisted I get axed from a talk: Writing Commentaries for Local Rag Gets Me Banned . . . Censorship is Riding Roughshod in Podunk Newport, O
Yes, that is correct. “Hate speech” is not a category of speech recognized under current constitutional law. It is merely a convenient way to pigeonhole speech that some people find offensive. But what is very troubling is when people begin to treat “hate speech” as unprotected speech. For example, a student leader at Penn State, a university which was recently sued for its unconstitutionally vague and overbroad speech codes, made the following comment featured in a prominent article in the student newspaper The Daily Collegian:
“We support any and all university policies that prohibit intolerant actions against any student on this campus,” said Watson, adding that hate speech was not protected by the constitution. [Emphasis added.]
Unfortunately, this is not the first time that a statement like this has been made. This belief has become somewhat pervasive, especially on college campuses, making it high time to put this fundamentally false and dangerous belief to rest.
There is no constitutional exception for so-called hate speech. The First Amendment fully protects speech that some may find offensive, unpopular, or even racist. The First Amendment allows you to wear a jacket that says “Fuck the Draft” in a public building (see Cohen v. California, 403 U.S. 15), yell “We’ll take the fucking street later!” during a protest (see Hess v. Indiana, 414 U.S. 105), burn the American flag in protest (Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 and United States v. Eichman, 496 U.S. 310), and even give a racially charged speech to a restless crowd (see Terminello v. Chicago, 337 U.S. 1). You can even, consistent with the First Amendment, call for the overthrow of the United States government (see Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 U.S. 444). This is not a recent development in constitutional law—these cases date back to 1949.<
The U.S. Supreme Court stated the general rule regarding protected speech quite well in Texas v. Johnson, when it held:
The government may not prohibit the verbal or nonverbal expression of an idea merely because society finds the idea offensive or disagreeable.
Federal courts have consistently followed this holding when applying the First Amendment to public universities. While invalidating sanctions placed on a fraternity for holding an “ugly woman contest,” a federal district court in Iota Xi Chapter of Sigma Chi Fraternity v. George Mason University, 993 F.2d 386, held:
The First Amendment does not recognize exceptions for bigotry, racism, and religious intolerance or ideas or matters some may deem trivial, vulgar or profane.
Furthermore, federal courts have consistently used this concept in striking down college speech codes that regulate offensive or unpopular language (for examples, see Doe v. University of Michigan, 721 F. Supp. 852, UWM Post, Inc., v. Board of Regents of University of Wisc., 774 F. Supp. 1163, and Bair v. Shippensburg Univ., 280 F. Supp. 2d 357). The law is so consistent that not one college speech code challenged in federal court has ever been left standing.
As you can see, it is settled law that public universities, in order to be consistent with the First Amendment, cannot regulate or suppress speech based upon its content, even when it is offensive, vulgar, profane, or unpopular. A university, especially one run with our tax dollars, should be a marketplace of ideas where open and vigorous discourse is encouraged and not suppressed by crafty speech codes and the threat of disciplinary sanctions.
The big problem for proponents of hate-speech laws and codes is that they can never explain where to draw a stable and consistent line between hate speech and vigorous criticism, or who exactly can be trusted to draw it. The reason is that there is no such line. — Jonathan Rauch, “A new argument for hate-speech laws? Um … no,” The Washington Post (Feb. 4, 2014).
My first slide:
Another part of my master class:
Hasbara = Stringing carefully selected and sanitized words together then produces a narrative and framing that “makes sense” to people. It becomes clear what is good and bad, who is good and bad, who we should (of course) support and who we should (of course) oppose, despise, reject, even eradicate. Nothing more has to be said. Anything we hear or read fits neatly into it.
•In Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, the state-controlled drug soma did not just induce feelings of relaxation and happiness; it helped the user forget. Israeli escapism works similarly; it recognizes that pleasure is inherently political.
•Israel’s own diplomats admitted as much, too. “We see culture as a propaganda tool of the first rank, and I do not differentiate between propaganda and culture,” said Nissim Ben-Shitrit of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 2005. Three years later, another Israeli diplomat, Ido Aharoni, put it more bluntly: “It is more important for Israel to be attractive than to be right.”

More stuff from the class: “Challenging Israeli ‘Hasbara’ and ‘Conventional Wisdom’ on Palestine: An Anti-Colonial Reframing”
Israel’s success in “selling” its wars and oppressive colonial practices lies in its ability to condense its political position into one succinct sentence. “Israel,” the hasbara/PR line goes, “is a small, democratic, Western [subtext: white] country besieged by Arab/Muslim [subtext: dark, irrational] terrorism.” That hits about every buzz-word possible, buzz-words being terms that carry a large load of self-evident understandings, emotions and associations that do not require explanation. Recently, for example, The Intercept, an American left-wing news organization, revealed a memo from The New York Times that
instructs its journalists to avoid using the terms “genocide,” “ethnic cleansing” and “refugee camps” when writing about Palestine. It directs them to steer clear of referring to areas of Palestine as “occupied territory” — and, even further, discourages referring to Palestine as “Palestine” whatsoever. In addition, the memo claims that words like “slaughter,” “massacre” and “carnage” are often too emotional to describe Israel’s bombardment of Gaza.
Ahh, moving along as I pull apart my PowerPoint presentation:
According to Starmer, the machine “makes us more human.” These were the exact words he uttered in reference to AI back in June at the Tech Week conference in London. Starmer is a true evangelist for AI. In January when rolling out the UK’s ‘AI strategy’ he said (and again this sounds almost too cartoonishly villainous to be true, but it is) that his government was going to “mainline AI into the veins of the UK.”

Well, since ICE is coming to Newport, a little reality here:
You do not need to be undocumented to land on ICE’s radar anymore. You just need to know someone who is. Or post something they do not like. Or even just open a text message. Maybe you just so happened to pass through a place where their network of systems are set in place. That could be a protest, a courthouse, or even at a traffic stop.
It’s not all anti-American: We are now in a death loop in which the BBC becomes ever more craven to the billionaires, thereby shifting the political centre of gravity ever further rightwards. Much of the British public have been convinced by the billionaire-owned media that the BBC is actually “leftwing”. And as a result, the right grows ever more confident in advancing the billionaires’ self-interested agenda, knowing there will be no pushback.
WHY? The media directed the so-called protests: Marches did occur in the United States — but not for Palestine. Instead, protests were staged around the nebulous theme of “No Kings,” a reference to the imperious actions of the Trump administration. There were no demands addressing the fact that Congress — not just Trump — remains the main enabler of Israel’s genocide, having provided over $22 billion in arms since the assault on Gaza began on October 8, 2023.
There was no unified call to halt ICE operations and its Gestapo-like raids that terrorize immigrant communities. There was no unified demand to end illegal deportations or support immigrants’ rights.
Just how things are spun, is that now HATE SPEECH vis a vis New York Times, err, Jew York Times?
•Trinidadian villagers said that the two corpses that washed ashore had burned marks on their faces, making them unrecognizable, and that they were missing limbs, as if they had been blown up. Rather than acknowledging these deaths as likely victims of US terrorism, the New York Times, which first reported the story, described the bodies’ mutilated appearance as a “mystery.”
•The victims of recent US bombings hail from Venezuela, Colombia and Trinidad and Tobago, all territories with a centuries-long legacy of Indigenous and African anti-colonial resistance. Fishing communities have reported friends and relatives missing in the past three months, believing US forces likely bombed them. The Trump administration claims the boats were trafficking narcotics, but it has never presented any supporting evidence.
So, the Spanish American war was fomented and created on Hearst and Puitzer’s watch, false flag, and now, the same with the murder about to be committed on Venezuela.
The term “yellow journalism” began as a reference to Richard F. Outcault’s “Yellow Kid” cartoon. Because it was published in both The World and the New York Journal, “yellow kid journalism” or “yellow journalism” was a way to refer to the sensationalism that they were both known for. The Scranton Tribune questioned if “the American people really do read such trash in newspaper guise as is produced by Hearst, Pulitzer and the other members of the yellow-kid guild.”
The “Spanish-American War” Was Based on a Bloody Lie
When the Maine sank, “conspiracy theorists” throughout the United States argued that there was no proof Spain had done the deed. Most ships at the time were powered by coal. Dust explosions inside their hulls were not uncommon. Prompted in part by such disasters, Winston Churchill in 1911 began converting the British fleet to oil.
But itching for a fight, and lusting for empire, Theodore Roosevelt would hear none of it. He quit his government post and convened a rag-tag volunteer army of “Rough Riders” who invaded the island. “I killed a Spaniard with my own hands,” TR later screeched. “Look at those damn Spanish dead.”
Untold indigenous died in the “freeing” of Cuba…not to mention Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines. The war in the Philippines dragged on until 1904, where we crushed an indigenous resistance that had previously been fighting the Spanish. The death toll there was well in excess of 3,000. Anti-imperialists like Mark Twain and a wide range of Socialists, intellectuals and activists bitterly opposed the war.
But firm in his belief that the US had a divine mission to conquer “inferior races” in the building of a global empire, the Spanish War became a springboard for Theodore Roosevelt’s imperial career. He became president in 1901 when McKinley was assassinated. In 1906 he sent a “Great White Fleet” around the globe to proclaim the new American hegemony. He became a firm advocate for the disastrous US entry into World War I—until his youngest son Quentin was killed flying a fighter plane.
Thus, following the conquest of Hawaii, the Spanish War became the springboard of America’s global empire.
And it was based on an outright lie, in which the “conspiracy theory” that Spain had NOT sunk the Maine was proven beyond doubt. (source)
Ahh, and Oct. 7? Is this fucking hate speech? October 7 ‘rape claims’ debunked as Israeli propaganda unravels
Discredited stories and false first responder accounts — of beheaded babies, children hung from clotheslines, and infants put in ovens — were used to exaggerate events of October 7 and create backing for Israel’s war on Gaza, AP reports
The New York Times columnist and Pulitzer Prize winner Bret Stephens will speak at SMU on “Why You Should Want Israel to Win.” Join us for a powerful and thought-provoking evening as he makes the case for why you should want Israel to defeat Hamas — not just for its own sake, but in the interests of a lasting peace.
In an era of misinformation, Stephens challenges us to confront uncomfortable truths and ask the deeper questions]
More, now? New York Times columnist Bret Stephens again made the case for the Trump administration to overthrow Venezuela’s authoritarian President Nicolas Maduro, laying out six different reasons to support his case.
In a new column, Stephens argued there is a “vital American interest at stake,” that Trump rejected a “quasi-colonialist” bargain to get a large chunk of Venezuela’s mineral and energy wealth, and that there is a moral case for regime change. He also argued this case is different than Iraq or Libya’s to minimize the chances of an operation turning into “another fiasco,” and that the risk of inaction is larger than moving forward.
Is this HATE SPEECH or just nuanced detailed reporting: “Bret Stephens is Jewish and was raised in Mexico City, describing his identity as a Jewish-American with a “hyphenated” identity that he finds to be a source of richness. His Jewish background has influenced his life and career, including his time working at The Jerusalem Post.”
Example of Geofencing and False Info . . . Israeli public relations officials considered developing a “geofencing campaign” alongside an evangelical consulting company called “Show Faith by Works,” according to reporting from Haaretz.
The project would map every major church and Christian college in California, Arizona, Nevada, and Colorado, track worshippers’ mobile devices during services, and later target them with ads portraying Palestinians as terrorists and Hamas sympathizers. Filings describe it as “the largest geofencing campaign in U.S. history,” seeking to reach 8 million churchgoers and 4 million Christian students.
Ahh, I will never just REST my case. This cancelling and intolerance of my ideas and fucking with my free speech has been going on, yep, since I was fucking 13 years old. And has never ever stopped.
