The Tortoise ALWAYS Wins: Cancel Culture & A Warning To The Woke

Are you on the right side of history? A term undoubtedly many of you have heard. But how would you know? In our deliberately divided world of ‘pick-a-side’ conflicts, isn’t the side you are on the right side? In today’s musings, we will explore the possible red flags.

According to Wikipedia (yes, I know this is hardly the best source of ‘truth’):

Freedom of speech is a principle that supports the freedom of an individual or a community to articulate their opinions and ideas without fear of retaliation, censorship, or legal sanction. The right to freedom of expression has been recognised as a human right in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1948 (UDHR) and international human rights law by the United Nations. Article 19 of the UDHR states that “everyone shall have the right to hold opinions without interference” and “everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression; this right shall include freedom to seek, receive, and impart information and ideas of all kinds, regardless of frontiers, either orally, in writing or in print, in the form of art, or through any other media of his choice”. Many countries have constitutional law that protects free speech. Terms like free speech, freedom of speech, and freedom of expression are used interchangeably in political discourse. However, in a legal sense, the freedom of expression includes any activity of seeking, receiving, and imparting information or ideas, regardless of the medium used.

It is interesting to note that the infamous ‘they’ have tried to subvert this with the fluffy-sounding International Covenant On Civil & POLITICAL Rights (ICCPR), where they have ‘taken’ Article 19 and ‘amended’ this by stating that:

The exercise of these rights carries “special duties and responsibilities” and may “therefore be subject to certain restrictions” when necessary “[f]or respect of the rights or reputation of others” or “[f]or the protection of national security or public order (ordre public), or public health or morals” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_speech

Lawfully, this does NOT mean that the UDHR, especially Article 19, has been nulled or voided. But it does create a slippery legal side road for liars.. I mean, lawyers, to slither off and make noise, lots of noise, that they are legally within ‘their’ rights to infringe upon YOUR Human rights of freedom of speech.

As far as I am generally concerned, Politics literally means Poly (many) – Ticks (Parasites) and that current politics and politicians, with a few exceptions, are simply gravy-train-riding psychopaths. If the UDHR was upheld and defended – and there is no reason why it can’t be under International Law – then there is no reasonable need for an International Covenant On Civil and Political Rights.

Except for one little thing. We ARE at war, a war where killing freedom of speech is vital, and reason, as well as reasonable, left the building on September 11^th, 2001, and an attempt to permanently crush it began in 2020 premised by the words ‘COVID-19’.

Around midday yesterday (Monday, Oct 23rd), we were contacted via email by our video hosting partner, Vimeo, that, effective immediately, our entire account had been terminated. Over 170 individual videos. Our entire Naturally Better video catalog. We were completely taken down deleted, and our account permanently closed.

Vimeo apparently determined some of our video content to be guilty of “health and vaccine misinformation” (their words). We were given no chance to respond. We were given no opportunity to appeal or discuss the validity of the allegations made towards our account.

Moments later, John Gusty, my partner in crime(fighting) and main honcho at Naturally Better, was also contacted by email that his PERSONAL Vimeo account was also terminated without prior warning. John was also given zero opportunity to discuss or correct any possible ‘policy violations.

While this turn of events is less than ideal and puts Naturally Better in a situation where an incredible amount of work needs to be done quickly… we see this as a tremendous positive.’

This is absolute validation that we are doing the work, asking the questions, and having the difficult discussions that need to be had. We are literally exercising our RIGHTS to Freedom of Speech and Expression. And though we do not expect an International Prosecution of Vimeo for committing several International Crimes against humanity, we most certainly do note that energetically, their time as one of the bullies in the inter-web media playground is coming to an abrupt – and probably messy – end.
