OnlyFans Rejects Banks, Reverses Sex Ban Decision

Parker Davis August 26, 2021

Just yesterday we wrote about OnlyFans deciding to end its sexually explicit content in light of the financial institutions, the banks, using their considerable monopolistic power advantage to threaten OnlyFans with depersonalization if they didn’t.

After they made the announcement, the CEO made it clear this was not an inhouse decision, it was a banking decision. The backlash against OnlyFans itself however, did not relent. Even the progressives took up the mantle under the guise of honoring and respecting “sex workers.”

OnlyFans saw the writing on the wall, that with or without the banks if your users were not having it, you’d for sure be done if you continued down this banking-preferred path. Just a few days after making the announcement, OnlyFans is now reversing its decision and letting the sex content stay, and even letting more to be created on its platform.

It is not clear how OnlyFans will get around the tyrannical will of the banking powers, but at this point they are left but with little choice to try, as they will surely die if they continue with the ban, so what do they have to lose anymore to try to find an alternative financial house to allow them to complete transactions on their platform?

Sophia Bernardi, a spokesperson for OnlyFans, told The Washington Post that the move came after the company’s banking partners assured OnlyFans that it “can support all genres of creators.” Tim Stokely, founder and CEO of OnlyFans, told the Financial Times this week that Bank of New York Mellon, Metro Bank and JPMorgan Chase were the banking partners that caused the initial decision.

Political Executions Have Already Begun Under the Taliban

Paul Collier August 26, 2021

The American media, aka DNC Pravda, are trying to convince you that the Taliban are reformed, that you should give them a chance to prove they’ve grown up, and anyone who doesn’t see this racist and/or bigoted. Yet, while they pontificate on the benevolence of the Taliban, with one Canadian official referring to the Taliban as their brothers, the killings of people who don’t believe the Taliban way have already begun, and our American media, DNC Pravda, is silent.

Taliban LIVE: Regime sets up civilian executions but makes bizarre climate change pitch | World | News

Excerpt:

The Taliban has vowed to play a global role in tackling climate change and world security, despite their shocking track record of orchestrating civilian executions and eroding the rights of women and minorities.

Abdul Qahar Balkhi, a member of the Taliban’s Cultural Commission, told Newsweek: “We believe the world has a unique opportunity of rapprochement and coming together to tackle the challenges not only facing us but the entire humanity.

“These challenges ranging from world security and climate change need the collective efforts of all, and cannot be achieved if we exclude or ignore an entire people who have been devastated by imposed wars for the past four decades.”

This bizarre attempt to rebrand comes a day after UN human rights chief, Michelle Bachelet, cited multiple credible reports of serious human rights violations committed by the Taliban in Afghanistan including “summary executions” of civilians and Afghan security forces who had surrendered.

South Korea Setting “Fake News” Fear Precedent to Create Censorship Law

Parker Davis August 26, 2021

The South Koreans might be showing the American DNC (an oxymoron that was difficult to even write) how to use fear of misinformation by uneducated and unaware people conditioned that way by their own government schools and DNC-owned media machines to create unconstitutional censorship laws.

France to Beat the US Out of Afghanistan

Paul Collier August 26, 2021

As the US prepares to leave by the Taliban-set deadline of August 31st, France might be leaving even sooner, with operations expected to end within the next few hours.

France expects to end Afghanistan evacuations in coming hours or days- minister

From freedomist.com

Excerpt:

PARIS — France will push on with evacuation operations from Afghanistan as long as possible but will likely end these operations in the coming hours or days ahead of an Aug. 31 deadline, government spokesman Gabriel Attal said on Wednesday.

Western nations rushed to complete the evacuation of thousands of people from Afghanistan on Wednesday as the Aug. 31 deadline for the withdrawal of foreign troops drew closer with no sign that the country’s new Taliban rulers might allow an extension.

Talks between leaders of the Group of Seven industrialized nations on Tuesday resulted in no extension of the Aug. 31 deadline for evacuations.

Attal added he could not currently give a precise deadline as to when France’s Afghanistan evacuations would end. (Reporting by Dominique Vidalon; Editing by Sudip Kar-Gupta)

Right to Repair Movement Spreads to Europe with New EU Laws

Mark Clouse August 26, 2021

In one of the few things this President has done so far in his short tenure that we at The Freedomist support, Biden issued an executive order that seeks to clamp down on efforts by corporations to create products that can only be repaired by their ‘experts.’ Since that EO, Europe has joined the fight by passing laws protecting certain appliances, like refrigerators, from falling to the same repair limitations that John Deere Tractors and Apple iPhones now have.

Europe Champions the Right to Repair – Are other regions next?

From spectrum.ieee.orgFrom
Excerpt:

….Europe’s new regulations demand that manufacturers of washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, and displays (including televisions) make spare parts and repair documentation available to professional third-party repairers, preventing the kind of repair monopolies that manufacturers might otherwise maintain. Manufacturers must be able to supply these repairers with spare parts within 15 business days, and depending on the class of product and type of part, must continue to offer such support for 7 to 10 years. Matching rules went into effect in the United Kingdom at the start of July.

Coming Soon, Women Being Drafted for War in America

Parker Davis August 26, 2021

The Senate Armed Services Committee approved a proposed language change to the Selective Service law from men being required to sign up for the potential draft to men AND women being required to sign up for the potential draft, the writing is on the wall for American women. You too will be drafted if the DNC has its way, in the name of ‘equality.’

Excerpt:

The Senate Armed Services Committee on Thursday approved a language change in the $768 billion National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that would expand the “Selective Service”—the oxymoronically named requirement under threat of imprisonment for 18-year-old males to submit their names to a national registry of potential military conscripts—to include the female of the species.

As Ella Lubell noted here yesterday, among those cheering this development is the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), whose lawsuit challenging the male-only draft was denied a hearing last month by a Supreme Court that nonetheless signaled its potential interest should Congress decline to change the law. “Men-only registration actually impedes women’s full participation in civic life,” the ACLU maintains.

It’s worth pausing on that logic, particularly in light of what that “L” stands for. Is “participation” really the right word to describe being coerced by the state…

Taliban Deadline to be “Honored’ By Biden

Mark Clouse August 26, 2021

Joe Biden appears set to ‘honor’ the deadline of August 31st, 2021 for US troop withdrawal, a deadline set by the Taliban. He attempted to justify his decision by saying “the sooner we finish, the better.” In the announcement, Biden was asked by the press about the fate of those still left behind. Biden walked away without answering any questions.

Biden decides to keep August 31 deadline to withdraw from Afghanistan: ‘The sooner we finish the better’

Excerpt:

“We are currently on a pace to finish by August 31. I am determined to complete our mission,” Biden said in a much-delayed speech from the White House.

But, he added, “The completion by August 31 depends on the Taliban continuing to cooperate and allow access to the airport to those who are transporting out and no disruptions to our operation.”

“The sooner we finish the better,” Biden said.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Biden relayed his decision in crisis talks of the Group of 7 on Tuesday morning, making clear the decision to stick to the withdrawal timeline was in large part driven by those security risks.

“The President conveyed that our mission in Kabul will end based on the achievement of our objectives,” Psaki said in a statement. “He confirmed we are currently on pace to finish by August 31st and provided an update on progress in evacuating Americans who want to come home, third-country nationals, and Afghans who were our allies during the war.”

According to NBC News, after pleading guilty in June, on Aug. 23 Tarrio was sentenced by Superior Court Judge Harold Cushenberg to a total of 155 days for burning the banner. Judge Cushenberg said the 37-year-old “did not credibly express genuine remorse.”

That same day, two Black churches in Washington D.C., whose histories stretch back to the pre-Civil War era, were also vandalized.

CNN reports Tarrio took responsibility for burning the sign on social media, writing, “Come get me if you feel like what I did was…

Scottish Group Calls Out People Using Racism as Excuse for Neo-Fascism

Irony Alert: Scottish Neonazi Group Calls Out People Using Racism as Excuse for Neo-Fascism

Parker Davis August 26, 2021

A neonazi group that combines its own actual racism and holocaust denials with a version of nationalism based solely on race is “calling out” those who use anti-racism to advance neofascism. The irony of a neonazi group calling our neofascists is that neither side represents or respects basic human dignity and human rights against the forces of authoritarianism.One bitter consequence of using the theme of anti-racism to advance neofascism is that it delegitimizes actual anti-racist efforts and makes racist groups more appealing to people who have been demonized by the neofascists. The potential growing popularity of this radical racist organization comes directly from the racism and neofascism of these leftist organizations which demonize “white people” for their “sin skins” while promoting an anti-Christian and authoritarian set of policies.Far right group has compiled a list of individuals who oppose racism and fascism – The Ferret From theferret.scot

China is all set to educate its youth on the version of “Marxist belief” espoused by its president by infusing “Xi Jinping Thought” into the national curriculum, its ministry of education announced on Tuesday.

Already enshrined in China’s Constitution in 2018, “Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era” will be taught to thousands of students starting from primary school level up into university.

Aimed at establishing Marxist beliefs and a young age as well as loyalty to the ruling Chinese Communist Party, the introduction of “Xi Jinping Thought” in textbooks will help strengthen the “resolve to listen to and follow the party”, the state-run Global Times reported, citing an official statement.
