Another Casualty in the Censorship Assault. Jay Dyer’s jaysanalysis.com was taken down by Word Press today for violating unspecified “Terms of Service”. I have grave concerns for the GDS site.

… as do I BlakeCosmos.
I wonder if our fellow overseas community members have any reports of similar occurrences.
Jay is one of the more cerebral figures out there, if he has been targeted, no one is safe.
He also appeared to be quite meticulous in following hosting guidelines. Just recently I heard him on someone else’s show
caution its host about reading certain Tweets in order to avoid any conflict. I happened to catch the live feed today when
he was announcing the removal of his site.
As I listened to him he evoked almost immediately the scene in Schindler’s List where Schindler
goes down to the basement and finds the servant girl crying … as I recall she said something close to, “I thought when I arrived here if I could just figure out the rules I would be fine but after trying desperately to figure out what the rules were I
came to the realization that there was just only one rule … there are no rules”.
That is at once, both a poignant reference and a deeply resonant source of further concern. Thank you Scarmoge.
This means concern for the entire group of truth tellers that most of us follow: CAF, DL (DJ), etc. Need for an alternative internet…
… and just when you think you have escaped their clutches … see the ending (not only the ending the whole film) of the great overlooked (in so many ways) film entitled “The President’s Analyst”.
It’s from 1967 and stars James Coburn, Godfrey Cambridge, Joan Delaney, Pat Harrington, Will Geer, Arte Johnson and I could go on … all wonderful performances.
They’ll be no spoilage here … please go find a copy … your effort will be well rewarded.
Yes, I was shocked since I’ve followed him for a long time and never seen anything objectionable . . . controversial but not outright intentionally offensive like others who’ve recently been banned . . . let’s hope it was a mistake . . .
I hope Daniel has a contingency plan in place so that we can step in to assist should the worst happen.

Well Jay Dyer isn’t the only one who has had the rug pulled out from under them……………….Alex Jones’ web site IS DOWN TOOOOO!!!
Him I expected, due to his size and reach. (not that I find this tolerable either) but when they come after a site that size and nowhere near the extremities of viewpoints, and rhetoric of an AJ, we need to be awake to the fact that the GDS site and content is decidedly at risk.
BC, like him or not, AJ is ruffling some feathers and he has for a long time tried to cover stories that the MSM will not cover. Saying that, taking his web site down is clear evidence that he is now being fully targeted and they will not stop. Look what they did to CAF, nuff said.
Let’s remember that many of Jays lectures and interviews discuss philosophy and theology – evidently a hot topic …
The YT channel is still there:
Possibly another great Giza entrepreneurship opportunity … buttons that read …. although my Latin is a little rusty …
“Ad Principes Adversum Me” or conversely one might wear – ironically – “Cogito Ergo Tyranni Infestus Sum”
Looks like more shadow work they are foisting on everyone!
And now Stephan Molenyeux has been deplatformed from you tube. There is nothing inflammatory in the content he produces. The Rubicon has been breached.
Wow I missed that – let’s see if an when he and others are “restored”.
… I missed that as well. Similar activities have been going on for some time. (see Mike Romano, Virtual Book Burning in Wired – 09-01-99) If the removal of titles from Amazon (A Piece of Blue Sky and The Committee) is Virtual Book Burning isn’t the “deplatforming” of individuals a virtual form of being burned at the stake? … Just wondering …
May I suggest an activity that might contribute to owning the culture … Go to archive.org and download copies of books that need to be preserved … Many of the books there are extremely difficult to find and if you can find them are very expensive to acquire. Modern “Libraries of Alexandria and Constantinople” can be virtually burned as well.
in reply to BlakeCosmos above … Maybe those we burn at the stake are burned not so much whose “content” is inflammatory but are burned instead because they are, as Husserl might say, recognized as “living embodiments.”
These living embodiments manifest, again borrowing from Husserl, what he calls the “eidetic attitude.” God forbid that any human being should have the notion that one is capable of observing and interpreting one’s own experience. See Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Address to the Harvard Divinity School. Maybe deplatforming (awfully awkward and horrid sounding language but alas we are stuck with it – see Dana’s comment about using clear language) occurs because they, albeit imperfectly, after all each of us is FALLIBLE, are deplatformed because they manifest and deploy (again however imperfectly so) the tools that might be used to oppose those who own (or think they own) the culture.
C. S. Peirce writes, “Few persons care to study logic, because everybody conceives himself to be proficient enough in the art of reasoning already. But I observe that this satisfaction is limited to one’s own ratiocination and does not extend to that of other men. We come to the full possession of our power of drawing inferences the last of all our faculties, for it is not so much a natural gift as a long and difficult art.”
From the series “Illustrations of the Logic of Scence”, the first installment entitled “The Fixation of Belief”, in Popular Science Monthly, Vol. 12 (November 1877)
In the interest of the advancement of owning the culture a step, a work, we all might undertake is to improve as Peirce says, “our powers of the drawing of inferences.” Isn’t this simply another way of saying what Dr. Farrell calls “connecting the dots.”?
A property that each of those deplatformed (we simply must find another word) appear to have in common is that they attempt to “connect the dots.” My concern for Giza is not based on judgments about its content but instead that it is an exemplar of “connecting the dots.”
Let me try the first sentence above again …. Maybe those we burn at the stake are burned not so much because their “content” is inflammatory but are burned because they are, as Husserl might say, recognized as “living embodiments.”
Apologies, it is early morning here and I simply have not ingested enough sugar and caffeine at this point to construct semblances of readable sentences. Cheers.
…which prompts me to propose a multi-leveled operation they are pulling off, 1) they obviously have gone bonkers and are bold enough to now target independent media or researchers directly, 2) get everyone involved in shadow work, 3) conducting a litmus type test to gather how people will react, and to whip up hysteria…let’s not lose our heads folks, we need to stay focused, and for goodness sakes everyone pray and/or put your specified intentions into the medium to repel their attacks…
…AND BIND THEM..
… since we sometimes tilt theological (as well as political) around here … see Ched Myer’s book Binding the Strong Man: A Political Reading of Mark’s Story of Jesus. I enjoy reading Myer’s work, but am always sure to have a full salt shaker nearby.
He does have an agenda or two nonetheless a worthwhile engagement.
I think some big news is coming soon and they are testing shutting alt media down. Like the 40, 000 sealed indictments being served.
