If you can get banned from YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms, what are the platform owners so afraid of? Is it because they believe their own values are universal and others must be shut down?
Bill Whittle and Alfonzo Rachel analyze the values behind the day’s headlines twice weekly on The Virtue Signal. Our Members make this possible with their monthly or annual contributions.

I apologize that the original post contained the wrong video. I was working with an unreliable internet connection from a socialist backwater and it took most of the day to attempt to post the video. The attempt failed. It has been ameliorated. Thank you for your patience.
Don’t sweat it Scott. We all know you are doing the best you can with what you’ve got. Be safe down there and come home when you can.
It’s worse than the fact that it’s not going to reach any audience that needs to have its mind changed …
“Craka” (cracker) is a term used to disparage all white people. Do you think for a moment that the people watching it for revenge porn are going to say, “well they don’t mean ALL white people” … even though they’ve been saying exactly that for years with this whole “white guilt”/”white privilege” thing?
First impression: two steps back.
Bill at 7:42: the racial prejudice decline was initiated by boomers, reversing whatever prejudice they might have learned from their parents.
I am a boomer and I agree that my generation was active in overcoming much (but not all) of the racial prejudices to which we were exposed before and during the 1960’s and 70’s. And later generations perhaps even more so. But let us also acknowledge that it was our parents, grandparents, and older siblings who were actually old enough to vote for the Congress that passed the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 1965 Voting Rights Act. The boomers could not vote that early – the 26th Amendment was not ratified until 7/1/1971, and the oldest boomer did not turn 21 until 1/1/1967*, i.e., after those laws were passed).
Thus, presumably racial prejudice was declining from at least the Jim Crow time frame, possibly aided by positive (or at least not negative) experiences between whites and blacks during WWII and/or in the military, and/or the civil rights demonstrations of the 50’s. Aside from the on-going racialist activities of Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, et al., it was Obama and Holder who re-injected racist thinking into our political domain. And magnificently continued by the Leftists such as Kendi, Hannah-Jones, Lori Lightfoot, et al. Not yet fully countered by people such as Thomas Sowell, Larry Elder, Tim Scott, etc.
*Now, strictly speaking, if boomers were the post war generation, and the war in Europe ended 5/8/1945 [ https://duckduckgo.com/?q=VE+Day&t=opera&ia=web ] then 9 months later is February 8, 1946. As I think about it, it is surprising that no one has tried to identify the first official baby boomer. It still would have been someone slightly older than George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, or my wife.
Well, there’s 12 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
I agree with Bill. Seems like it’s aimed at agitation & white guilt. I’m a Boomer & learned all about slavery in school. I know how bad it was & don’t need a movie to place me there. I imagine this film will be promoted in schools to show what we “white supremacists” are really like & we really exist.
Wrong video. This is an old BWN posting. Something got cross-linked somewhere.
This is a recurring problem with this WordPress site. What is interesting is that it’s always the same link to the old “Revenge Porn” video. I suppose it’s a favorite of the bots on Rumble.
Good points, both.
Also, Scott on vacation. Postings will not be as seamless.
Jah,and that’s fine with me. I was just pointing this out so that the right people would be aware of it. I wasn’t complaining.
Why is this not on Rumble? 80 million users and rising…most of whom won’t use BlueTube…so what gives?
It is now
This is like the movie Antebellum. It sounded like it could be a clever concept (modern black Americans transported back into slavery), but was nothing more than tired grievance porn. It will generate some nice buzz, get glowing reviews, and end up as a total flop. Crud like this is a dime a dozen these days
Which is why I watch less than 1% offered on Amazon Prime originals. Once in awhile I’ll watch an old classic movie, or a documentary that isn’t likely to be corrupted with leftist group think. I unsubscribed to Netflix after that odious child porn Cuties thing was aired and I haven’t been to see a newly released movie in almost 2 years. Just had it up to my ears with the leftist indoctrination crap – I’m immune to it, but I don’t regard anything like that as entertainment.
The last movie I saw in a theater was the Dennis Prager and Adam Carolla documentary “No Safe Spaces”. Very good. BTW Bill’s movie “The Arroyo” is on Prime and I highly recommend it if any of y’all haven’t already seen it
