I don’t maintain this blog for money by any means. I only run a couple non-intrusive ads to cover the cost of hosting & promotion. It’s a challenge though due to the fact the Big Tech Thought Police control almost all ad dollars nowadays, so I often see rejections like this one I just received from the Amazon Affiliates program:

“Your website/app/social media account promotes or contains material that is hateful, harassing, harmful, invasive of another’s privacy, abusive, or discriminatory (including on the basis of race, color, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age) and this is in violation of our Operating Agreement.”

Ironically, the post they cited as an example was my blog a few days ago on the cascading effects of Big Tech censorship. Amazon is often overlooked in its membership of the Thought Police, but make no mistake, they’re an equal power member. As you can see, they ideologically pick members for Amazon Associate revenue, and they ~~burn~~ ban books similar to the way Facebook & Twitter ban posts. Also, don’t forget the “pull the plug” capability they have with their AWS Hosting, demoed by their Death-Star-Hitting-Alderaan destruction of Parler last year, when 20 million voices cried out in terror, then were suddenly silenced. Amazon and its Legion of Doom leader, Jeff Bezos, have no fear though as long as mainstream media such as the Washington Post (which he owns) give them cover.

Random Thought of the Day

I see that due to pressure from Starbucks and Amazon, Seattle finally repealed the insane “head tax” on employment, which was supposedly to pay for homeless. There are two important lessons to be learned here.

Taxes always lead to behavior changes and unintended consequences from businesses and individuals. In this case it led to a curtailing of new hires and threats from important businesses to halt future investments. Also, more homeless were migrating to Seattle to take advantage of the potential perks.
Rich liberals like Jeff Bezos and Howard Schultz always preach the need for bigger government and more “taxes on the rich”, but the rules of the masses don’t apply to them. As soon as their companies are targeted, they fight back. Most new tax bills are usually hundreds or even thousands of pages so all kinds of loopholes for the super-rich can be buried within them. Check out the personal tax returns of “please tax the rich” liberals like Warren Buffett and Bill Gates. You will see they take advantage of every tax avoidance tactic in the book.
