FACEBOOK – MY OWN LITTLE FIVE EYES NETWORK

MY FIVE FACEBOOK ACCOUNTS

Over the past 15 years I’ve had five Facebook accounts which is quite a lot for an introvert who doesn’t even like Facebook.

My original one was was set up in 2007 using a burner email. Even back then I knew it was best to be as anon as possible online. In the early days FB was relatively free and uncensored and I posted a lot of anti-vax and “conspiracy” stuff as well as some fairly deranged and out there content that wouldn’t be allowed on any mainstream social media platforms these days.

The official history of FB is entirely fabricated to hide it’s origins as a Mossad/CIA social programming platform, but it appears to have been initially trialed on American university students from around 2004 while the mind controlled C-grade actor known as “Mark Zuckerburg” (fake name) was set up as the front man. The same process was later repeated with “Elon Musk”

Prior to 2007 I had been using MySpace, and FB had just started to overtake MySpace when I started using it. For the first couple of years my account worked quite well but over time they started censoring more content, and then in 2010 my entire account just disappeared. Presumably FB deleted it. (I don't have any screenshots from that account)



THEN I BECAME AN IDIOT

For some reason I set up a new account in 2010 using my real name and mainly became “friends” with people I knew or had some connection with in “real life” (so I only had about 200 “friends”). That was a mistake! For the first few years things mostly didn’t go too badly although I did have a few big online fall-outs. But from around 2014 when I was increasingly posting “anti-vax” content I found out that most of my “friends” were not on the same page as me at all, and about half of them unfriended me.

In 2016 I stopped using FB altogether and moved mainly to the blockchain site Steemit. I thought of FB as just being a platform for mind programmed sheeple and for a while enjoyed getting paid to post on a blockchain instead. But when the covidhoax got going in 2019 I went back to FB, still using my real name account, and found 500 like minded new “friends”. 

Then I let rip, using that account regularly for two years, before it finally dawned on me that posting anti-vax, anti-government, and anti-covid content using my real name on a deep state platform while living in NZ was not a good idea. In November 2021 I did one last post but otherwise stopped using that account.



NEXT I BECAME TOM ANDERSON

Tom Anderson is the name of the guy who founded MySpace and was the first friend for all new account sign ups. But the main reason I called myself Tom Anderson was because of Neo in “The Matrix” whose real name was Thomas Anderson. 

Once that account was set up I quickly re-friended my 500 new friends who knew what day it was, and started letting rip again. But by this time FB was cracking down and my account kept getting suspended. It rapidly became clear I needed a backup account so I could rotate them.



 FOLLOWED BY GREG ANDERSON

For obvious reasons “Greg Anderson” seemed like a suitable name for my next account. For the next 18 months I swapped back and forth between being “Tom” and “Greg” as the accounts were constantly suspended. But I did manage to learn faster than FB’s AI and eventually I got to the point where I could mostly work out what would get my account suspended and alter it as required. 

That, combined with FB relaxing their censorship as their usage declined with the total balls up that is Meta, has meant that I've now managed to be “Greg” for six months straight with no suspensions or black listings.



 I DIDN'T EVEN NEED IAN

Early in 2023 when both my accounts were suspended I set up another account named “Ian Anderson” (leader of Jethro Tull) as a third back up account but as things worked out I never ended up needing to use that account, and my friend list on it is only about half done.

LIKE FATHER LIKE SON

Jamie Lee Curtis has raised her son as a daughter.

This is all totally normal and anyone who thinks that Jamie or Lee are male names, or that "she" looks like a man, or that more than half the Hollywood elite are inverts is a conspiracy theorist.

You would have to be crazy to think this hot actress looks like a man...

 But like many things, "Transvestigations" have become part of operation chaos and nothing is what it appears. What initially got me wondering about Jamie Lee Curtis (apart from her insider family connections, and all that creepy shit with her deranged looking son in drag) was the movie "A Fish Called Wanda" (1988). 
 
I really like that movie, it's hilarious, and Jamie Lee Curtis stars in it. It's the only movie I've ever seen with her in, she spent most of her career doing "slasher flicks" which I have no interest in. 
 
In one scene in "A Fish Called Wanda" she dresses as a man, with a fake mustache. But the more interesting parts are where she appears just in her underwear. Without the big padded shoulders she usually wears, she is still tall and thin with long limbs, and she has a fairly large head with a big jaw. But she also has some female curves including hip and lower back curves. Unless she is using an excellent body double in those scenes I think she does look like a biological female.
 
So what is going on? My best guess is that she is really female but is intentionally trying to appear more masculine, as well as working the tranny son angle, all to create more confusion. There are lots of trannies in Hollywood, but playing both sides is always a key Illuminati tactic. So I'll put Jamie Lee Curtis in the "too hard" basket for now. But if you haven't seen it, "A Fish Called Wanda" (1988) is well worth a download!

THE CLASH

 It's hard to believe now, but there was a time when some popular music was making strong anti-establishment statements. Leaders in that field were the Clash, who did two absolute masterpieces - their first album "The Clash" (1977) and their third album "London Calling" (1979) are both timeless classics.

This photo of Paul Simonon smashing his bass guitar onstage at the New York Palladium in September 1979, taken by British photographer Pennie Smith, became one of the most iconic album covers of all time, but that cover is actually a rip off of Elvis Presley's debut album from 1956!

Here is the title track from London Calling - the entire double album is brilliant, and still sounds cutting edge nearly 45 years later

WHY I LIKE MEMES

 


In the blink of an eye a meme can transmit about as much information as the viewer is ready to absorb without taking hours to write like a full length blog post does, and there is no danger of boring anyone's legs off.

BLOGGING 101

Blogging has certainly not turned out to be the world changing activity I once hoped it would be. I started out blogging on Blogger in 2008, which despite being owned by Google was such a well designed platform that I missed it when I stopped using it in 2015 and shifted to WordPress. 

It used to work pretty well, but these days it’s not very popular anymore. I’ve pretty much given up caring about that, so I set up this new www.sift.co.nz Blogger account to replace my WordPress blog.

 I have started doing a post of some sort (long or short) on Blogger each day, because I have always liked the way the platform works (even though I don’t like Google), and it's really handy for basic low maintenance blogging.

At my most optimistic I hoped blogging could change society, and with the advent of the Steemit blockchain in 2016, I also hoped I could earn reasonable money for writing blog posts. Well, society has certainly changed in the past quarter of a century, since I got my first computer in 1998, but mostly not for the better. 

To my jaded old eyes there were many things that were better in the 90’s and very few that are better now. Apart from geek stuff like the speed of internet connections and ease of transferring data, I struggle to come up with much stuff that is better now.

Blogging is another one of those things like data transferal that has never been easier. But sadly most of the content is lame, boring, semi-literate bullshit, and getting an audience of intelligent real humans in this day and age is not easy.

 I live in New Zealand, which is a beautiful country in the middle of being fucked over by some of the most evil and corrupt WEF gimps on the planet. There are likely to be more “hate speech” laws being brought in by these maggots, and people like me who want to share non-approved content will have to adapt.

Free platforms are as rare as hen’s teeth, and it’s not as easy to remain uncensored as I had hoped. Coming from a background of being black listed by both Google and Facebook, amongst others, I stopped using censored platforms and thought the future was in blockchains. 

Back in 2016 before I knew shit from chewed dates, Steemit at first seemed awesome. But I soon learned a thing or two. Steemit turned out to be just as oppressive as Facebook really, just in different ways. And Hive soon became even worse. But I did well out of both platforms financially for a while, and still think of Hive as very well designed blogging platform, even though several whales there have spelt it out in no uncertain terms that I’m not welcome to use it.

What I’m I going on about?

Which brings me to the point of this ramble – I need an effective system for blogging. As of 2024 this is my plan for blogging world domination:

I have stopped posting on my WordPress.org blog www.frot.co.nz because WordPress is becoming a pain in the arse, a big bloated woolly mammoth. My WordPress blog was self hosted so in theory couldn't be censored. But in practice the globalist NZ Government can threaten my server space provider, and they in turn can be forced to apologetically ask me to remove the offending content (which they have done once so far) – so the writing is on the wall, at some point in the future I may need overseas options that can’t be censored like that.

I will continue to do a mix of more frequent but shorter posts here on my Blogger account www.sift.co.nz and enjoy the irony of using Google’s own platform to host the very sort of content they are trying to block. But they may well notice me and crack down at some stage.

I'm also keeping my own offline copies of everything I post, so if my online content does get censored or deleted at some point I could put it all back on a new platform.

 All the other platforms that I've been posting content on for the past seven years, including Instagram, Steemit, Hive, Bastyon, Blurt and a few others, have ended badly, or simply crawled up their own arses, so I have just given up on them and I'm now focusing exclusively on posting content on my own little blog. I'm past caring what anyone else thinks about anything I post these days so have turned all the comments off.

Although I plan to knock out a post of some sort on www.sift.co.nz each day, it's safe to say I won’t be doing it for fame or fortune, but more because it helps me to get my thoughts straightened out, and if it also has any influence on the global hive mind (I’m sure that "Hive" platform name was no accident) that would be an added bonus. It feels like we are trying to bail out a sinking ship right now I know, but every extra insight or bit of positive vision could potentially do us all wonders.

JESSICA SIMPSON IS DOWN AND OUT

 

Jessica Simpson needed some new garbage cans. But instead of ordering top-of-the-line name-brand trash receptacles, she headed to a HomeGoods discount store in June to hunt for a bargain, she confesses in a new interview. In the same sit-down, she also admits it “might be the last time” she’ll be wearing her gold rings and bracelets — “because I might have to sell them.”

Yes, Jessica — who once ran a billion-dollar empire — is down and out. “She’s feeling a major financial crunch, which is a huge 180 from her old life, where finances were never a concern and she bought the best of everything,” a source tells In Touch. But over the past couple of years, a run of bad luck involving her company’s management forced the actress and former reality star, 43, to go into massive debt and make “big lifestyle changes.”
