Communication Cross Pollination

I'll share some very important data here, right now below, that resulted from the great @JosephJFlynn1's work, yesterday. And I'll guide you to some other connected work as well.

2) Since the great purge, in spite of still having 19,000 followers, down from 31,300, my tweets' reach has plummeted, far more than by the 1/3 of followers lost. Roughly, my tweets reach about 1/10th of the people they were reaching prior to the purge.

@JosephJFlynn1

3) Take yesterday's small story about various social media platforms, that feature @JosephJFlynn1. Before he retweeted it, it had reached about 1,500 impressions. When I last checked, it was over 22,000 impressions. That is SOLELY due to Joe's retweet and comment.

4) Here is the key. I have the honor of counting Joe as a friend, and we communicate by other media than just Twitter. He'd never have seen my little thread here. But I sent a link to him by another medium. And that is what I mean by "Cross Pollination of Communications."

5) Always remember Gene Sharp's principle:

Oppression May Be Probed

By means of cross pollination, Joe pushed my little thread forward and expanded its reach by almost 20X. Contemplate that.

6) Do you know the term "stub?" They use it all the time over at Wikipedia. It just means a small post that needs expanding. This little thread is a stub. I'm about to go compose the full version now, in a word doc.

7) The doc will not exceed 4 pages. Once complete, I'll snap screenshots and post it at CloutHub. Once posted there, I'll snag the link and repost it here, below. That is another example of cross pollination. Stick with that...

8) By composing my essay in word, I have the document on my own computer, safely saved. Posting it at CloutHub - I am @ThyConsigliori there as I am here - I have the 100% confidence it will NOT be censored. That is powerful. Please join me there.

9) There are many steps we may take to defeat Big Tech censorship. I pledge to find as many of them as I am able. Again, remember Gene Sharp's Law:

Oppression May Be Probed

@JosephJFlynn1

10) And if you don't follow him yet, head over to @JosephJFlynn1 and do so. He's still here. Why? He just can't walk away from a fight. What's his motto?

#FightLikeAFlynn

Today's stubbed mini-thread ends at #10.

Go follow me at CloutHub, please. I will soon post today's full essay there, and then repost that one link here.

"Sharp's key theme is that power is not monolithic; that is, it does not derive from some intrinsic quality of those who are in power. For Sharp, political power, the power of any state – regardless of its particular structural organization –

"ultimately derives from the subjects of the state. His fundamental belief is that any power structure relies upon the subjects' obedience to the orders of the ruler(s). If subjects do not obey, rulers have no power."

@JosephJFlynn1

Some early morning thoughts on the evolving social media situation. First, a nod again to @JosephJFlynn1 who continues to lead the way right here at Twitter. How is that even possible? Yet, there it is. Joe gives no ground and offers no surrender or silence. Honor to him!

Second, you'll keep hearing me talk bout Gene Sharp's proposition: Oppression may be probed. Extending that, oppression is not monolithic. It is not all seeing. It is not omniscient and absolutely NOT omnipotent. One may test its reach and tensile strength.

Third, through previous probling, I discovered - many had before me - that hashtags and links are the triggers that Twitter looks for. Thus, their avoidance is, for now, prudent, but gratingly, vexatiously so. My little rebellion is this particular hashtag: #HonestJudges.

America = Free Speech

Free Speech = An Honest Vote

1) We considered the history of amendments about the vote itself, yesterday. From the most important 1st amendment through those that followed and specifically protected the right: #15, 19, 24 & 26.

2) It’s interesting that the vote is not mentioned in 1A, and then that the format of the following four is built on the phrase: The right of the citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied…

We know suppression is real. We know that our #1A rights have no impact upon social media when they deem then "dangerous." So, what do we do?

2) One thing is, join up at CloutHub. I'm working diligently to learn that new platform's capabilities. If it has a single greatest value, I believe that censorship is not its objective. Should I learn I'm wrong, I'll drop it like it's hot.

3) Yet I keep mentioning Gene Sharp's principle:

Oppression may be probed.

Actually, anything can be probed. The greatest probers we know of were the 9/11 terrorists who probed every aspect of our legal and flight security systems. They knew how to probe.

27 January 2021 - A Few Short Thoughts

It was with sadness that I chose to stop doing my long-form threads here at Twitter, but I know those of you who follow my work understand why and I won't discuss that any further. I am sharing formally that there will be no more post here.

2) Strangely, as soon as I stopped posting my normal stuff here, my account not only stopped losing followers but began to gain a few, again. Now there's a go figure, eh? I take it from that that obedience is rewarded. I'm pretty sure about that, actually.

3) I learned a new rule. Power can be probed. It can be tested. So, not having anything to lose, my next decision as you can see right now, is to continue to play with the rules of power, here. I am posting over at Gab and have the same name there as here.

Whistle While You Work

Life often gives us signs and signals, and no matter how wrongly we may interpret them - and we truly do often misinterpret - we must still listen anyway.

2) By nature I am the most disobedient man you'll ever meet. When given a command my true nature is to do the opposite. When asked, politely, I behave very differently. My inclination is to say yes, wherever I possibly may. Commands, different story.

3) But this newly born day - it's just after midnight by not quite an hour yet - I received a crystal clear command from the Big Tech overlords and I have obeyed. One of the signals is that I am down about 1,400 followers over the past 6 hours or so. How about that?
