Techdirt has a story that is quite disturbing on many levels:
Forget banning TikTok, the Trump State Department just suggested it wants to basically ban China from the internet. Rather than promoting an open internet and the concept of openness, it appears that under this administration we're slamming the gates shut and setting up the Great American Firewall for the internet. Under the guise of what it calls the Clean Network to Safeguard America, last night Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced a program that is full of vague statements, that could, in practice, fragment the internet.
This is incredibly disappointing on multiple levels. While other countries -- especially China, but also Iran and Russia -- have created their own fragmented internet, the US used to stand for an open internet across the globe. Indeed, for whatever complaints we had about the State Department during the Obama administration (and we had many complaints), its commitment to an open internet was very strong and meaningful. That's clearly now gone. The "Clean Network to Safeguard America" consists of five programs that can be summed up as "fuck you China."
So much for Internet openness.

"nazi" is a jew slur for the nsdap. "racism" is another psyop used against any white who tries to protect or improve his race while the Jews use any tactic to improve their grip on the world's nations. you disrespect your father by calling him that. you act as if the Jews owning the media, hollywood, the finance industry, and a long list of other things is some kind of unverifiable conspiracy. are you crazy? just look at the credits for nearly everything that comes out of hollywood or who owns the "news" media companies. or watch fucking cspan when they have hearings. who runs the criminal international bankster federal reserve and nearly every nations' central bank, always? you dad was probably right about way more than you give him credit for. why don't you do some fucking research.

My father was a heroin-addicted pathological liar who beat me and threatened to kill my mother. He did the disrespecting all by himself.
You on the other hand, anon, are a corrosive turd of a human being.
Every genuine neo-Nazi I've ever met has been a piece of shit. It's pretty hard not to make a connection there. It's pretty clear that advocation for genocide is correlated with being human garbage.
I'm too tired and irritated to put up with this shit.
