Writers should be careful contributing to corporate
social media sites like Quora that may pay a little for contributing content. Corporate
has very deep pockets and is networked on Wall Street. Appealing to the masses
they can vacuum up content and information and use it to learn about American
political sentiments. They can also censor writers and delete content, ban
writers and/or content for violating corporate policy which can be interpreted
of course many ways. If one is not politically to the left questions at Quora
for example can be regarded as hostile or not sincere and evoke warnings and
temporary bans. A writer and question
asker can work for hundreds of hours and not receive a penny in compensation
and his copyright trail security put at risk. One morning one logs in to
discover one is locked out and receives a hate e-mail describing all of the
offenses one has committed on the corporate web site. How troubling it is to
learn that one’s best writing is ‘vandalism’.
The more questions one asks at Quora the more comments One
may get. I replied to at least make an evaluation on every comment and that
consumes hours. One is paid (in theory) for asking questions rather than for
writing essays and answers. My writing was viewed 11,500 times the last month
and was increasing a few hundred each day.
Social media sites that decide to ban a writer usually
confiscate unpaid earnings and may continue to profit from the questions and
answers a writer has contributed, when the writer is gone. They also are like
to dump numerous slanderous and false accusations about the writer in order to
intimidate and to justify their extreme adverse action.
Corporations are not individuals, yet the law in some senses
regards corporations as individuals; irresponsible ones that don’t need to
suffer the consequences of their actions in some ways because they do not
actually exist as living beings.
Corporations are collectives and exert tremendous corrupting social
effects on the U.S.A. Some reform is wanted to reign in their transformative,
non-democratic social governing power. Imagine if Olympic individual events
like boxing or judo allowed collectives to compete against real individuals.
Big collectives should not be free to smear individuals with a plethora of
quasi-legal labels when they decide to kill a writer’s work after first
inviting them to participate. The collective then acts as a big international
info-terrorist agency calling to mind an old marching lyric; ‘a yellow bird with
a yellow bill was sitting on my window sill, I lured it in with crumbs of bread
and then I smashed its f’ing head’.
The United States was founded on principles of individual
rights and freedoms rather than corporate or collective rights masquerading as
individuals. The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States is the
justice most heavily invested in Wall Street collectives and casting vote for
homosexual marriage- a corporate collectivist policy. Corporations are ending
the era of America as a nation of strong individualism and rendering it unto
global fascist collectivist entities. Corporations and corporate wealth buy and
sell other ‘individuals’ (corporations) as it suits their purposes of acquiring
wealth, political and financial power; they own the broadcast media and annihilate
the value of U.S. citizenship with a surfeit of trans-national ‘business’.
Corporations, unlike individuals, can be everywhere on Earth at the same time
with a foot upon every continent and nation.
It would be very easy to write an algorithm that would
enable a writer to know which content is not liked by the corporation and to
put it on a list for corrections or removal, rather than to keep things hidden
until the writer is suspended temporarily two or three times and then nuked.
Social media sites soliciting writers to ‘partner’ as in the case at Quora and
to share earnings may be taking the first step out the door to being banned- it
is a god route to take to remove writers that would not otherwise be banned
simply for writing essays from a right-of-center point of view (the social
media sites tend to have a leftist-corporatist point of view and view criticism
of corporation concentrating wealth very dimly. There can be no excuse for
failing to write a proper algorithm that can sort, classify, hold, release and
otherwise process individual questions and answers in a way that is fair and
that prevents the need or opportunity for the corporate controller to suddenly
detonate a writer’s work and ban him form the website. It is just the will of
corporate to make demiurge, little gods of power of themselves working to rule
the free publishing and politics of the people of the United States and planet.
I graduated from a computer programming and systems analysis
course in 1981 so I know that it isn’t too difficult to write computer algorithms
and sort materials posted into neat little files that would let a writer know
what is troublesome to the corporate publisher and what isn’t. It takes a crude
and crass will to power and control to attack and force through bans with
justifications in the fine print and applied hermeneutics of the atheist
priesthood of corporate policy dogma. They expect writers to be witless idiot
minions that are as bland as Adolph Eichmann writing banal questions and
bureaucratic, authoritative replies. I read Alexander Solzhenitsyn’s book ‘The
Cancer Ward’ and it had a prologue transcript of his interview by the local
Soviet censorship board. It is worth reading. The United States is evolving to
be that kind of society spliced into the pig-dog of corporatism and The Brave
New World. The most promotable are those amoral youth that regard use-truth as
more truthful that objective facts in the belief that al truth and meaning is
subjective.
Deep pockets and vast interconnected wealth mean that
corporate media can be nothing more than shills for the rich so they can get
any worthwhile thoughts from anyone so far as possible. It can mean that they
can have a political check so basic as to know what sort of actions might be
useful for manipulating stories and spinning political news to their own ends.
In time politics in the United States outside of corporate control may simply
perish and the will to power of corporate wealth will be complete.
Corporate power to censor or control and even repress
individual writers has no limits these days. In several respects the United
States has taken on some of the characteristics of the communist party of the
former Soviet Union with the rich in the role of the elite of the C.P.U. They
desired a one-party state and in the United States the corporate party is
fulfilling that goal of dictatorship over the proletariat.
One of the useful tools of the U.S.A. as a reincarnation of
the essence of the F.S.U. is Darwinian evolution ideology that has made it
excusable to have purely secular morality and the downgrading and ridicule in
some cases of people of faith in God. Science can provide information about the
material universe, and humans may misinterpret the paradigmatic axis of the
book of Genesis, yet all may fail to be able to comprehend that the Bible is
the actual truth and is not in conflict with the natural order of the creation.
Humans misunderstand cosmology and hermeneutics while pastors may have wrong
creation and eschatological ideas to balance the anti-faith ideas pervasive
with some in the community of physicists. Corporations and their minions can
actually instill a spirit in exerting repressive evolutionary actions and
controls to force humanity to accept their atheist world-view. The great benefit
for the rich is that they can concentrate wealth and believe they are improving
the social life of humanity by forcing secular worldview morality and social
structure everyplace on Earth.
Homosexual ‘marriages’ are one of the most obvious evolution
paradigm establishments forced recently upon the people of the United States by
the Supreme Court of the United States. It is interesting that German
theologians have criticized the Pope for failing to give blessings to
homosexual marriages. For implementation of the new world order of homosexual
and bi-sexual social hegemony and usurpation of existing family structures it
is useful to have sympathizers rise to occupy social positions of authority
including those of the church, and to downgrade traditionalists. With
sympathetic authorities even the church can have its morality corrupted and
secularized, much less the judiciary and other political offices. If the laity
or the masses protest, they can be told to eat it for they are not expert and
haven’t the graduate degrees and expertise that insiders with authoritative
opinions have, in some cases because they couldn’t afford to do so.
