The Speech That Broke The Internet A Torba CEO of GAB

The Speech That Broke The Internet

video of speech below transcript 

Speech Transcript 

God is real, the Bible is True, and Jesus Christ is King of Kings.

These are the fundamental truths on which we must stand if we are going to do what must be done in order to reclaim what is rightfully ours. 

America is a Christian nation, but somewhere along the way our tolerance for evil allowed subversive agents of Satan to invade every facet of our country and culture. 

Our worldly institutions may have been conquered by secular humanists who hate God, but we worship a God who overcomes all worldly institutions. 

The good news is that public trust and faith in these institutions is waning. For the first time in one hundred years we have an opportunity to rebuild and restore our once great society. 

The people in power want a Great Reset, but what we are going to give them instead is a Great Restoration.

Buckminister Fuller once said that “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

If we are going to win—and we are going to win—we must work together towards the common goal of building parallel Christian systems that are beyond the influence and control of the existing demonic ones. 

Parallel systems can only work if they are built on the firm foundation of our faith in Jesus Christ and the Truth of God’s Word, the very same foundation that the United States of America itself was founded upon. 

The challenge before us is to build these new systems and models based on the traditional and Biblical values given to us by God. 

It’s a synthesis of new tools combined with the sturdy tradition of order.

It’s a revolt against modernity through the embrace of our rich traditions and through the wisdom of the Word of God. 

David Chilton once said that “Freedom cannot be exported to a nation that has no marketplace for the Gospel” and of course he was echoing 2 Corinthians 3:17 which tells us that “where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.”

Our dissent against the ruling Regime must be rooted in the desire to preserve liberty and live authentically according to God’s Word. 

Dissent is impossible without the freedom of speech.

It’s the ability to say “no” in the face of evil. 

Our participation in communion with God means that we are divinely endowed with the gift of restoring order, guided by His hand, in a chaotic and broken world. 

The reason that I started Gab almost six years ago is because I saw dissenters being silenced.

American citizens are being banned from the internet, frozen by banks, blacklisted from flying on airplanes, and labeled terrorists for daring to have a political opinion that dissents from the ruling Regime’s. 

By refusing to bend to the demands of the Regime I myself became a dissenter.

My family has been doxxed, harassed, stalked, swatted, and regularly faces death threats from people all over the world. Gab has been banned from dozens of service providers including App Stores, payment processors, multiple banks, email services, and so much more. 

This is the cross I will gladly pick up and carry if it means that my children will grow up in a world where they can speak freely and worship God Almighty.

I may be a dissident in my own country, but I am a happy liberated warrior for the Kingdom of Jesus Christ. 

What we are facing is so much more than just censorship.

We are facing the total replacement of good and Holy things with filth and decay.

We can no longer overlook social issues in favor of economic ones.

We can no longer ignore the depravity and degeneracy that is perverting and destroying our minds.

We must never allow the demonization and destruction of the nuclear family and the corruption of our children to happen.

We must stare into the face of Silicon Valley, the mainstream media, and the political establishment on both sides of the isle and dare to say: “no.” 

Jesus did not command us to sit around getting crushed by Satan waiting to die. He commanded us to make disciples of all nations and we need to take dominion in His name.

His Kingdom may be in Heaven, but He Himself told us in Matthew 28:18 that He has ALL authority on Earth as well. 

It’s time to start acting like it. 

So often we are called hateful by people who hate our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, so to them I say: yes I am hateful. I hate sin. I hate evil. I hate Satan and I hate the Antichrist.

They will call our speech “hate speech” because we dare to speak the Truth of God’s Word. 

You’re a racist if you don’t hate yourself for the color of your skin. 

You’re a bigot if you don’t want men in dresses walking into the bathroom with your daughter.

You’re an antisemite if you question sending Israel American taxpayer money to build their wall, while our own border is being invaded. 

Their shame words no longer hold any power over me and they should never again hold any power over you.

Tolerance is NOT a Christian virtue.

God has zero tolerance when it comes to sin, which corrupts our bodies, hearts, and minds. We are commanded to hate that which is evil. Without hatred we can’t understand love, but we must be careful to not aim our hatred at one another. Instead we must unite and aim our hatred at the sin and evil in our own hearts. 

What is at stake is not only the future of our country, but the future of Christendom as a whole.

Christians are being demonized, dehumanized, discriminated against, demographically replaced, and disenfranchised. We are being attacked, harassed, fired, and banned from the internet and financial systems for our political and religious beliefs.

None of this is okay.

Christians should be boldly denouncing these things, but we look to our churches, our so-called Christian leaders, and even our politicians and we are met with a deafening silence–or worse a proud endorsement of this madness. 

Christians are no strangers to persecution.

We have always and will continue to overcome the advances of the Enemy.

Imagine being among the first group of Christians after Christ’s resurrection who spent forty years preaching the Gospel waiting while those practicing the Old Covenant law mocked them.  We can’t even comprehend the persecution they faced in order to defend and spread the Gospel. Many ended up giving their lives for it.

This group of Christians is the most inspiring to me because they had to have the most faith of all. In Luke 21:6 Jesus prophesied about the Temple that “not one stone would be left on another, every one of them will be thrown down.”

For forty years that didn’t happen and a generation of Christians had to patiently wait and have faith that what Christ said would come true. Then in 70 AD, it did happen, just as he said it would, and that Temple was absolutely annihilated. Almost 2,000 years later it’s still not standing despite multiple attempts throughout history to rebuild it. 1 Corinthians 3:16 tells us that WE are the Temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells within us.

This is the enormous amount of faith that we need to have today. We need to be in this for the long haul. We need to be willing, like the very first followers of Christ, to have an entire lifetime of faith.

Christians are not revolutionaries.

We are reformers. We do not destroy things, we build and create them, mirroring our Creator. God will handle the destruction of our wicked and corrupt global regime, in fact I think He’s already started.

If we are going to save our country we must adopt a mindset of seven generations thinking.

Previous generations, including my own, have lived in the moment for themselves.

We must learn from this mistake.

Short term pleasure at the expense of longterm pain for our kin is unsustainable. We must be the ones who are willing to put in the work to build a Christian future not only for our children and our children’s children, but for Christendom as a whole. Now is the time for us to build.

This is a spiritual war.

They are targeting our very humanity. This is evidenced by everything that our enemies promote.

Their “values” are inherently anti-human.

Abortion. Moral decay. Sexual degeneracy. The destruction of sovereign nations and the ethnic cleansing of people. The persecution of everything and anything related to God Almighty our Creator.

We must realize that King Jesus is not some hippie Mr. Rogers that our culture makes Him out to be. He is King of Kings. He reigns. He rules. He flips over tables in the temple. He scorns the Den of Vipers. He rebukes the Synagogue of Satan. This is the Jesus I know and worship. This is the Jesus of Scripture. This is the Jesus that will lead us out of this mess.

We must strive to be more like Him. 

All great civilizations are built on the back of strong nuclear families because strong nuclear families are God’s design. Strong men lead strong women. Strong women support strong men and they raise strong children together. This leads to strong families and strong families lead to strong nations. 

Where are our Christian men today?

Unfortunately many American Christians have adopted a secular human worldview. Instead of worshipping God, they worship idols in the form of celebrities, sports players, and even politicians. They are “Christian” in name only. 

They value material “stuff” over the fruits of the Spirit. They seek comfort and fleeting pleasure over the suffering and courage it takes to live an unapologetic and authentic Christian life. They are lukewarm Christians.

I’m here to tell you today that lukewarm Christianity is over.

Christians need to rise up and proclaim the name of Jesus Christ the King of Kings to the world.

We are the ones establishing nuclear families. We are the ones bringing up our children to know and love the Lord. We are the ones building sovereign businesses and infrastructure. We are the ones with a future worth fighting for and we are the ones who will restore order.

We are reformers, builders, and pioneers.

We need to go all in, take a leap of faith, and live fully for Christ at every moment of our lives.

We must prepare ourselves for what is coming by exiting their entire system and raising up our children to be builders for the Kingdom of God. We need to build our economy, our own technology, our own education systems and our own political movements. This requires a multi-generational effort. 

The tolerance of the generations before us has led to the subversive takeover of every facet of society and even our churches by the global elite. That does not mean that they cannot be defeated. 

I believe that God has a plan to do so, but it will take the organized and longterm commitment and effort of His people to accomplish this. We must never again tolerate evil and the spirit of the antichrist in our culture, governments, education systems, homes, churches, and most importantly our own hearts.

So if you don’t have a sword, then sell your cloak and buy one because we have a lot of work to do.

To God Be The Glory,

Why is Ukraine the West's Fault? Featuring John Mearsheimer

Filmed in25 Sept 2015
UnCommon Core: The Causes and Consequences of the Ukraine Crisis John J. Mearsheimer, the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor in Political Science and Co-director of the Program on International Security Policy at the University of Chicago, assesses the causes of the present Ukraine crisis, the best way to end it, and its consequences for all of the main actors. A key assumption is that in order to come up with the optimum plan for ending the crisis, it is essential to know what caused the crisis. Regarding the all-important question of causes, the key issue is whether Russia or the West bears primary responsibility. ➡ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGOytSubscribe About #UChicago: Since its founding in 1890, the University of Chicago has been a destination for rigorous inquiry and field-defining research. This transformative academic experience empowers students and scholars to challenge conventional thinking in pursuit of original ideas. #UChicago on the Web: Home: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGO-homepage News: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGO-news Facebook: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGO-FB Twitter: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGO-TW Instagram: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGO-IG University of Chicago on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/uchicago ***

Neil Oliver: We watch Russia - but we must watch what our leaders are up to here in the West

I’ll be honest. I don’t know what’s happening in Ukraine. I don’t understand it either.

I ignore most of the mainstream media because I don’t trust it. In the Wild West world of online, where I graze widely, it feels like there are as many different assessments and explanations of the situation in Ukraine as there are people with keyboards and phones.

What I do know is that truth is rarer than gold, and therefore harder to find.

I also know that whatever Vladimir Putin is up to in Ukraine, the West must accept responsibility for a share of the blame for what is now being suffered and endured by ordinary people there.

Whatever Putin has done, whatever Nato and the governments of the EU have done – and I say again I don’t feel anywhere close to knowing what’s been going on, and what is going on – men, women and children are sheltering underground on European soil in 2022. Soldiers on both sides are dying. I do know that I don’t trust Putin and I don’t trust our leaders or our government, or Europe’s governments or the governments of North America either – I certainly don’t trust any of them to tell the truth.

Crony capitalism, in one form or another, has seen governments and corporate entities – some corporates so vast they have more clout than nation states, anyway – slide into bed together for the making of profits and the keeping of power. Too many people with fingers in each other’s pies, amassing wealth at the expense of the wellbeing of the rest of us. I don’t trust the lot of them as far as I could throw them.

Here’s the thing: what we have had in the West, some parts of the West at least, is even rarer than truth and gold. We have had freedom – freedom as individuals to go about our lives without undue fear of the State. Most of the rest of the world is a damned mess – and almost always has been. Most people who have lived and died for 200,000 years endured an existence we would find utterly intolerable, unbearable. All around the world people have been, and are, ruled by despots, tyrants, gangsters and thugs. If you don’t know this, or don’t believe me, just take a look around.

Here in the West, for a few decades so exceptional as to be almost dreamlike, a handful of generations have known something else: individual freedom; bodily autonomy; equality before the law; the promise of a fair trial so that the state may not punish a person without due process; the right to vote; tolerance of sexuality and religion. You might say it has not been perfect – and you would be right. But it has been immeasurably better, and so much more than 99 percent of the species has known anywhere else and any when else.

And yet, having been granted so much by our predecessors, what have we done with that treasure beyond price? The most recent of us committed the cardinal sin and took it all for granted. We actually had the temerity to think what we have had here for a few sweet generations is nothing more than the end product of the natural order of things … that individual freedom and protection from the excesses of the State, and the rest … just happens. Too many of us allowed ourselves to think all of this was natural, and that, regardless of our behaviour, it would greet us every morning like the rising sun. But I say again, if you want to see the natural order of things – look around at the rest of the world. To anyone who looks at what we have had here and says it’s not good enough, I say, “compared to where … compared to what?”

In 1992 American political scientist Francis Fukuyama wrote “The End of History and the Last Man”. In it he developed the thesis that liberal democracy of the sort we have had in the West was the inevitable end point of the evolution of all political ideologies. What we have had is better than anything else available, he wrote, and so, regardless of setbacks from time to time, by strongmen and despots and the like, western liberal democracy was ultimately inevitable, everywhere, however long it might take.

Let’s hope his prediction is ultimately true – for our children, or at least our children’s children – but if we want it to remain true for us, in our time, we have to do a great deal more than take it for granted. We also have to do more than think our leaders are to be regarded as the good guys just by dint of occupying positions of power here in the West.

I grew up thinking we were the good guys. Whenever there was trouble in the world, I assumed our involvement and intervention there would be for the good of the people living under the yoke of whichever despotic regime. After the last couple of decades – Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, to name but a few – I don’t think that anymore. At the age of 55, I question it all and I trust not a single one of them.

I still think liberal democracy, in theory at least, offers the best chance of life for the most people – but is that even what we have here in the West anymore? During the past two years I’ve watched leaders all over Europe, in Australia and New Zealand, in Canada, dropping the masks of liberal democracy and looking, for all the world, like the authoritarians we were taught to despise elsewhere. I’ve witnessed the advent, all over the so-called liberal west, of all manner of surveillance systems, the coming of digital IDs in all but name, the censoring of news and free speech, laws brought in by stealth to silence dissent, the routine use of propaganda and fear tactics by government, the implementation of mandates for medical procedures … and more and more I have wondered where the freedom went or, at least, where the freedom might be going.

We have not yet slipped all the way into totalitarianism of the sort that existed behind the Iron Curtain in the second half of the 20th century – of course we haven’t – but if you get the chance, you fight the fire while it’s only smouldering and sparking, not once it’s properly alight and roaring and too big to tackle.

Such is our flagrant disregard, our seeming contempt for what we have had here, we have spent years now in what amounts to the mocking of our own civilization, our own history and culture. We have unlearned the basic science of biology to the point where to be a woman is now no more, apparently, than a state of mind; we teach our children that anyone born white is the product of original sin, never to be forgiven; any figure from our past who lived and died without somehow obeying and displaying the ways of thinking of a self-declared social and moral elite of this 21st century is to be cast, post mortem, into perdition.

And all the while we dance, like marionettes, to these new tunes here at home, within the trembling, undermined, towers of Western civilization, we turn a blind eye to all manner of horrors elsewhere. Not only do we turn a blind eye to the horror, we knowingly benefit from its products. How, I ask, can we sleep at night as lovers of freedom while our lives are made more comfortable, easier, by the suffering of others? It might be one thing to accept we do not have it in our power to make better the lives of everyone in the world – but it’s surely quite another to dare to call ourselves liberals while swapping our own freedom for mobile phones and throw away clothes made by those living lives little better than slaves.

China’s president Xi Jing Ping was an honoured speaker at a gathering of the World Economic Forum – that unelected body, beloved of our leaders, proudly declaring plans to reset our world. We in the West cannot consume the products of Xi’s China fast enough. Our athletes attended his Olympics – just as our footballers will attend the World Cup in the middle east state of Qatar where thousands of Africans and others were worked to death building the necessary stadiums.

But back to Xi’s China where the horror and depravity of what is being done there to the Uighur Muslims must shame us all. Forced sterilisation to prevent there being a next generation of Uighur people. Tonnes of hair shorn from the heads of Uighur women and packaged for sale as hair extensions. Uighur men loaded, in their thousands, onto trains for transfer to distant camps and fates unknown.

We so-called liberals and democrats in the West know all of this – have known for years – and yet in the shadow of all of it we fret about pronouns, exonerate vandals who pulled down a statue and threw it in a river, let men compete in women’s sport, browbeat our children about the evils of their ancestors and buy more phones, powered by cobalt mined by child slaves in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

In Canada prime minister Justin Trudeau sent heavy horses to trample peaceful protesters. Then we watched him stand behind his podium and pledge support for the free people of Ukraine in their efforts to resist a tyrant. Our mainstream media has spent two years ignoring protests all over Europe in the face of lockdowns and mandated vaccines – and now somehow now finds the time to lament Putin’s suppression of peaceful protests in Russia. When did the word hypocrisy get so small and inadequate in the face of all this?

Trudeau has taken control of the bank accounts of citizens who supported the truckers – a trick made easy by electronic, cashless banking. Already in the West – as he has shown and is surely being watched eagerly elsewhere by others – a state displeased with a person’s thinking and behaviour can make it all but impossible for that citizen to live. This should make all of us afraid, very afraid.

Freedom to earn a living, and to buy and sell without the intervention or interference of the State, might be the most fundamental freedom of all. If THEY – whoever they are – stop US transacting with one another without THEIR express permission – well, welcome to the Thunderdome.

I said at the beginning that I don’t know what’s really going on in Ukraine. I don’t know what’s going on in the minds of Putin or any of the players in the latest Great Game. I also don’t know if there are any good guys.

I do know this has happened because here in the West we have stood fiddling while Rome burns. We have watched the erosion of our freedom. We have watched while the very idea of liberal democracy is hollowed out, filleted, to leave behind nothing but an empty shell. People like Putin – and Trudeau and Ardern and Macron – watch what others get away with, what works in the furthering of nefarious ends – and act accordingly. Putin is in part our fault, just as Trudeau and Macron are our fault.

We watch Ukraine and Russia. But at the same time we should watch what our leaders are up to here in the West.

No doubt Ukraine is shaping up to be a tragedy for some poor souls. Maybe it won’t end there.

Any man’s death diminishes me, wrote John Donne, for I am involved in mankind. And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee.

Europe Is Killing Itself With Its Russian Sanctions

 

Europe Is Killing Itself With Its Russian Sanctions

Europe Is Killing Itself With Its Russian Sanctions

Paul Craig Roberts


The sharp rise in natural gas price in Europe is entirely due to Western hysteria and stupidity. According to the EU’s own data, Europe is dependent on Russia for 46% of its natural gas. In the face of such extraordinary dependency on Russian energy, the moronic European “leaders” are falling all over themselves imposing impotent sanctions on Russia.  The idiotic German Chancellor actually punished the German people for Russia’s recognition of the Donbass republics by “cancelling” the Nord 2 pipeline.  This foolish act was a prime reason for the hysteria that has caused a sharp rise in prices.  The price rise helps Russia–if she continues to supply Europe with energy.  It hurts Europe and whoever financed the Nord 2 pipeline. If the pipeline sits not operating, it cannot produce a revenue stream to service the capital invested in the pipeline.  I do not know who financed the pipeline. If it was Germany, then the chancellor’s sanctions on Russia have twice injured the Germans.

The EU’s 46% dependency on Russian natural gas is independent of the Nord 2 pipeline, the opening of which has been on hold due to Washington’s pressure on Germany. Therefore, the rise in gas price is not due to a reduction of supply, but due to speculation that Russia will reduce or cut off supply. Europe is served by other pipelines.  What if Russia responds to the EU’s “sanctions” by closing the pipelines that deliver 46% of Europe’s natural gas?  What would Europe’s fate be?

Russia has accepted sanctions without replying in kind.  Perhaps it is time for Russia to impose sanctions to teach the West a lesson.

In my opinion there is no reason for Russia to deplete its own energy resources by sharing them with its European enemies.  Perhaps the Russian government’s idea was that energy sales would be a source of foreign exchange earnings and that providing Europe with energy was in the interest of good relations with the West.

Now that the West has demonstrated that the West has no interest in good relations with Russia there is no point in the Russian energy sales.  As I pointed out ( https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2022/02/22/russia-and-china-should-go-their-own-way/ ) Russia has no need for foreign exchange.  The Russian central bank can finance Russian economic development with no need of foreign involvement.  Russia’s holdings of instruments denominated in dollars or euros would just be confiscated by sanctions.

To summarize:  Europe brought the high energy price on itself with its thoughtless sanctions; the high prices benefit Russia and hurt Europe; Russia should consider turning off all natural gas to Europe and conserve its energy source for its own and China’s development.

Europe is nothing but a thorn in Russia’s side, a collection of Washington’s puppets.  Russia owes Europe nothing.

No Shooting War in Ukraine – Dr. Paul Craig Roberts USA Watchdog

 

By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com

Dr. Paul Craig Roberts (PCR), former Assistant Treasury Secretary and international award-winning journalist, says the problems in Ukraine have been boiling for 8 years.  Millions of Russian people were supposed to be protected in Eastern Ukraine under the so-called Minsk Agreement.  It was supposed to stop the fighting, but the fighting never stopped.  Now, Russia has recognized the breakaway regions and has a deal to protect the Russian people there.  PCR explains, “Putin said we have to give them some kind of semi-autonomy.  Let them have their own police in that area so they won’t be persecuted by the Ukrainian majority.  Putin worked out this agreement, and Ukraine signed it.  Germany and France guaranteed it, and the breakaway republics signed it, but we (U.S.) prevented Ukraine from complying with it. . . . The minute Russian troops moved in, the shelling stopped.  It completely stopped, and it won’t start back.”

The non-stop propaganda by the mainstream media (MSM) makes people think we are at the brink of war with Russia.  The Obama/Biden Administration is clearly pushing for war in the region, but PCR says “no way” and goes on to explain, “How are we going to fight them?  NATO in a battle with Russia would not last five minutes.  I am just talking about conventional war.  NATO cannot mobilize sufficient military force to confront Russia.  They just don’t have it.  The force isn’t there, and Russia does not want Ukraine. . . . Ukraine is bankrupt.  It’s full of neo-Nazis, it’s trouble. . . . There is a propaganda war going on  . . . but there is not going to be a shooting war over Ukraine.  Something really stupid would have to happen to cause that.”

What is stupid are the sanctions that are piling up on Russia that will only hurt the already financially troubled West.  For example, according to PCR, “The German Chancellor says I am going to punish the Germans by turning off the pipeline because Russia recognized Donbass.  It makes no sense.  Why is he punishing Germans?  Their energy prices go up.  The banks who financed it fail.  What if Putin says you don’t need that pipeline, we will turn off this other pipeline too.  What happens in Europe?  They are dependent on this energy.  People will freeze to death in the winter.  The factories will close down.  The German Chancellor is an idiot.  He’s punishing Germans, not Russians.”

PCR says inflation is high but not because of massive money printing by the Fed.  Inflation is rising because of the extreme CV19 policies.  PCR explains, “What’s the cause of the inflation?  The lockdowns are the cause of the inflation and the stupid Covid policies.  The lockdowns are the source of inflation.  Why?  They busted up all the supply chains.  They stopped production.  Production ceased.  Factories closed.  Restaurants closed.  Everything closed.  People lost their jobs.  The Governor of California banned half of the American trucking fleet from entering California. . . . People lost their jobs but got a government check instead.  The money did not decline, but supply did.  So, prices went up, and that’s why we have inflation.”

PCR says look for the Fed to make yet another policy mistake that will wreck the economy.  PCR says, “Most people don’t understand the Fed is not there to help the economy.  It’s there to help the New York banks. . . . The Fed has never served the economy or the people.  It’s always made policy mistakes, and it was a Fed policy mistake that caused the Great Depression.”
