Twitter has permanently suspended the personal account of Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene for " New post on *Caitlin Johnstone* Those Who Support Internet Censorship Lack Psychological Maturity by Caitlin Johnstone *Listen to a reading of this article: * ? Twitter has permanently suspended the personal account of Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene for what the platform calls "repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy," much to the delight of liberals and pro-censorship leftists everywhere. This follows the Twitter ban of Dr Robert Malone on the same grounds a few days prior, which followed an unbroken pattern of continually escalating and expanding censorship protocols ever since the 2016 US election. In reality nobody ever gets banned for "Covid misinformation"; that's just today's excuse. Before that it was the fallout from the Capitol riot, before that it was election security, before that it was Russian disinformation, foreign influence ops, fake news, etc. In reality the real agenda behind the normalization of internet censorship is the normalization of internet censorship itself. That's the real reason so many people get banned. I myself had already written many , many articles warning warning about the increasingly widespread use of internet censorship via algorithm manipulation and deplatforming long before the first "Covid misinformation" bans started happening. Arguably the most significant political moment in the US since 9/11 and its aftermath was when liberal institutions decided that Trump's 2016 election was not a failure of status quo politics but a failure of information control, which just so happened to align perfectly with the agendas of the ruling power structure to control the dominant narratives about what's going on in the world. Having unelected tech oligarchs ban duly elected members of Congress - or even the sitting President - from using their massive platforms is dystopian. Remember how many world leaders warned that FB & Twitter's banning of Trump was a threat to democracy.https://t.co/zIT7l04hMW https://t.co/2BPFrgeZXv ? Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) January 2, 2022 We saw this exemplified in 2017 when Google, Facebook and Twitter were called before the Senate Judiciary Committee and instructed to come up with a strategy "to prevent the fomenting of discord". ?We all must act now on the social media battlefield to quell information rebellions that can quickly lead to violent confrontations and easily transform us into the Divided States of America," the social media giants were told by think tanker and former FBI agent Clint Watts, who added, ?Stopping the false information artillery barrage landing on social media users comes only when those outlets distributing bogus stories are silenced?silence the guns and the barrage will end.? Since that time the coordination between those tech platforms and the US government in determining whose voices should be silenced has gotten progressively more intimate , so now we have these giant platforms which people have come to rely on to share ideas and information censoring speech in complete alignment with the will of the most powerful government on earth. The danger of this is obvious to anyone who isn't a stunted emotional infant. The danger of government-tied monopolistic tech platforms controlling worldwide speech far outweighs the danger of whatever voice you might happen to dislike at any given moment. The only way for this not to be clear to you is if you are so psychologically maladjusted that you can't imagine anything bad coming from your personal preferences for human expression being imposed upon society by the most powerful institutions on earth. Silicon Valley Should Not Restrict Public Discourse About Covid Measures Which Affect Everyone "Government-tied oligarchic megacorporations are among the very last institutions who should be in charge of worldwide political discourse." https://t.co/WlDypacgmM ? Caitlin Johnstone [image: ?] (@caitoz) December 30, 2021 It really only takes the tiniest bit of personal growth to understand this. I for example absolutely hate QAnoners. Hate them, hate them, *hate* them. They always used to make my job annoying because they saw my criticisms of the mass media and the oligarchic empire as aligning with their view that Donald Trump was leading a righteous crusade against the Deep State, so they'd often clutter my comments sections with foam-brained idiocy that perfectly served the very power structures I oppose. They saw me as on their side when in reality we had virtually nothing in common and couldn't really be more opposed. When QAnon accounts were purged from all mainstream social media platforms following the Capitol riot, it made my work significantly less irritating. I no longer had to share social media spaces with people I despised, and, if I were an immature person, I would see this as an inherently good thing. But because I am a grown adult, I understand that the danger of giant monopolistic government-tied platforms controlling worldwide human speech to a greater and greater extent far outweighs the emotional ease I personally receive from their absence. I therefore would choose to allow QAnoners to voice their dopey nonsense freely on those platforms if it were up to me. Whatever damage they might do is vastly less destructive than allowing widespread communication to be regulated by powerful oligarchic institutions who amount to US government proxies. The same is true of Marjorie Taylor Greene and everyone like her. This should not be an uncommon perspective. It doesn't require a lot of maturity to get this, it just requires some basic self-preservation and enough psychological growth to understand that the world should not be forced to align with your personal will. It says bad things about the future that even this kindergarten-level degree of insight has become rare in some circles. __________________________ *My work is entirely reader-supported , so if you enjoyed this piece please consider sharing it around, following me on Facebook , Twitter , Soundcloud or YouTube , or throwing some money into my tip jar on Ko-fi , Patreon or Paypal .

You're way early so don't sweat it. Poke around in LMS to see if it'll let you withdraw the translator renewal. I think it might but I'm not sure where it might be found. If so, nuke it and go ahead with the LPFM+translator renewal. Otherwise if it won't let you withdraw the translator renewal, then if the LPFM app will let you claim the translator then do so, and add a note requesting dismissal of the duplicate. I guess if it won't allow you to claim the translator on the LPFM renewal, then put in a note asking for the disconnected renewal to be combined. It might cause some hiccups, but shouldn't be a big problem. You can also ask for help from their call desk or email support. In any case, there's no reason to file early (I like maybe a week before the deadline), and remember that it may take them MONTHS and MONTHS to grant the renewal, so once it's submitted, don't sweat the license expiration date passing. ## Paul (he/him) (pablito) Bame Engineering Director, Philadelphia, Prometheus Radio Project 215.727.9620 x2 / 970.988.3849 On Mon, Jan 3, 2022 at 7:54 PM Danny via grc wrote: > So I went to the FCC website to renew our LPFM and Translator licenses, > except it appears I certified the Translator one first so now I can't do > the same for the LPFM.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <62d2ae136b096228dac372b5dec2078e@whidbey.com> FYI, -Tom http://www.insideradio.com/free/fcc-will-sunset-cdbs-filing-system-today-at-5pm/article_d152c758-7378-11ec-97f0-3f26a360b5a6.html FCC WILL SUNSET CDBS FILING SYSTEM TODAY AT 5PM. The Consolidated Data Base System, or CDBS, the online filing system used by broadcasters to submit forms and applications to the Federal Communications Commission for decades, is coming to an end. In a Public Notice issued Tuesday, the Media Bureau said it would no longer accept filings in the CDBS effective at 5pm EST on Wednesday, Jan. 12. "This action is necessary due to pressing technical issues that prevent the effective use of CDBS going forward and is intended to facilitate the ongoing transition of all filings to the Licensing and Management System (LMS) database," the agency said. The Commission has been transitioning broadcasters to the LMS since May 2019. The majority of Media Bureau applications and submissions have already migrated from CDBS to LMS and they must continue to be submitted via LMS, the notice says. The agency says it expects this will be a "permanent sunset" of the use of CDBS for Media Bureau filings, as all those filings continue to transition to LMS. Starting today at 5pm, Media Bureau filings that can't be submitted using LMS must be emailed to audiofilings at fcc.gov. This includes amendments to existing applications that were previously filed using CDBS. In the case of filings using an FCC form, the Media Bureau says the form should be submitted as a PDF attachment to the email. Attachments in other formats won't be accepted for filing, it warns. Informal filings, like requests for Special Temporary Authority or Silent Station Notifications, submitted by letter can be submitted in "pdf" or "Word" format. The subject line of the email should include the nature of the submission, the call sign and facility ID of the station (if any) and any relevant docket number or file number. The Media Bureau says it will dismiss as "procedurally defective" any applications that are required to be filed using LMS that are submitted using the new email filing procedures outlined above. Here are the types of filings that the Media Bureau says will be required to be submitted by email: * AM Application for Construction Permit for Commercial Broadcast Station on Form 301 * AM Application for Construction Permit for Reserved Channel Noncommercial Educational Broadcast Station on Form 340 * AM Applications for Broadcast Station License on Form 302 * Special Temporary Authority (STA) Engineering Requests and Extension of Engineering STA Requests for all audio service stations * Silent STA / Notification of Suspension/ Resumption of Operations / Extension of Silent STA Requests for all audio service stations * Change in official mailing address * AM Digital Notification on Form 335-AM * All-Digital AM Notification on Form 335-AM * FM Digital Notification on Form 335-FM * Amendments to pending applications previously submitted in CDBS * Pleadings (Petitions to Deny, Informal Objections, Oppositions, Replies, Supplements, Petitions for Reconsideration and Applications for Review) concerning applications submitted through CDBS or using the email procedures outlined in this Public Notice More info about the LMS system and which filings are currently supported by it can be found at the Media Bureau's LMS Help Center HERE [1]. The Media Bureau says the public will continue to have access to CDBS for public searches and CDBS data files.

Summary: Featured speakers/guests: This week Theresa talks with Autumn Ness, director of Hawaii organic land management program for Beyond Pesticides, is an organizer and policy advocate based in Maui. With the impacts of COVID-19 related hotel and restaurant shutdowns, Ms. Ness helped found a new nonprofit, Maui Hub, that has linked arms with Mauis small farms to support them through the crisis, while also laying the foundation for long-term food system change. She was instrumental in generating broad political support to begin the process of converting pilot sites on Maui, Kauai, and Big Island (playing fields and parks) to organic land management. She organized organic land management trainings for county landscaping staff and provides ongoing support to communities throughout the islands. Ms. Ness has been a policy consultant to state and county legislators on agriculture, pesticide, and housing policy. Specific projects include: expanding organic land management practices in the public and private sector, better regulation of pesticide-heavy industrial agriculture and the chemical companies conducting outdoor genetic engineering (GE) crop testing, and the promotion of small scale sustainable agriculture that produces food for the Hawaiian Islands. Autumn was a leader in the historic citizens initiative for a moratorium on GE crops in Maui County, which won at the ballot box in 2014, but lost in courts when the chemical industry sued the County of Maui. She works with a statewide coalition of environmental groups, to engage average people in the political process, amplify their voices in government, and drive policy.
