Conservative Canadian website The Rebel said its domain provider cut its internet registration, making the site inaccessible to some users around the world on Monday as the company scrambled to get back online using a second provider.

The move comes after GoDaddy Inc, Alphabet Inc's Google and other technology firms last week pushed the neo-Nazi website Daily Stormer offline by terminating services of the online publication that helped organize the violent rally in Virginia on Aug. 12.

Rebel Media founder Ezra Levant, whose website often rails against Muslims and refugees, did not identify the firm that severed his site's registration, although he said he was given 24 hours' notice and no explanation for the move.

"If this was a political censorship decision, it is terrifying - like a phone company telling you it is cancelling your phone number on 24 hours notice because it doesn’t like your conversations," Levant told Reuters.

He said the site was available in "about half of the world."

The kiddie porn is hosted in countries like Russia, Ukraine ..

Rebel is hosted in Amazon Technologies, Inc.. Reno, NV NOW?!

If you use google as your Internet Provider's resolver, it's blocked.. because google blocks them

How Donald Trump is poisoning conservative politics

Evan Solomon: An extreme off-shoot needs to be excised from the conservative movement. If the U.S. president won’t draw the line, who will?

"Trump is in danger of fully legitimizing the far right’s pathetic victimization narrative which posits that minority groups have somehow taken over Western democracies, and that this the root problem affecting so many people on the bottom of the socio-economic ladder. His former strategist Steve Bannon, who bolted immediately back to Breitbart, sees the world through this lens. He casts the future as a war against “globalists,” a euphemism for those who champion diversity, multiculturalism and open trade. It’s a shocking distortion of important conservative philosophy that champions personal responsibility, free trade and moral codes, but it fuels a collective anger that links to a poisonous lineage of hate and violence.

The internet is an exacerbating factor. While there is no moral equivalence between, say, neo-Nazis and Black Lives Matter, there is an “availability equivalence” online. Hate literature, which was once confined to badly produced, hard-to-access pamphlets is now readily available. It is as easy to get thousands of pages of conspiracy-minded hate literature and hours of video as it is to get accurate historic facts.

The “Fake News” meme undermines legitimate journalism and facts and offers disaffected people counter-narratives that are often destructive but virtually impossible to fact-check. The world of information now functions as a form of asymmetric warfare and no one understands this more deeply than people like Steve Bannon. What he does outside the White House will be one of the most critical factors in determining how loyal Trump’s base remains.

If there is really a “war” coming, as Breitbart just warned, leaders have to take stock quickly. Which side will they be on? In this battle, distinctions between liberal and conservatives, progressives and libertarians should be put aside in favour of a unified stand against hate, especially in its camouflaged form. But conservatives have to realize that their movement and their brand, especially in the U.S., is under direct assault from the inside, from those using terms like “alt-right.” They are not real conservatives and should not be used for political gain. Many have waited for the president to draw this line. So far he hasn’t. Who in a chaotic White House will do it remains one of the great challenges of this presidency."


Yeah. How do Conservatives get you guys on the Nazi Right to feck off back to Bugtussle? The Alt-Reich freak show down in the US has made it almost impossible to elect Conservative governments up in this country, for the time being.

Those who want to laugh at Levant and his Rebel media would do well to recall that Hitler and others were very quick to shut down any voice they disagreed with! Our Pet- the father of Our idiot Boy Justin was on record telling us that the war against Nazi Germany was "British Imperialism" And now we have modern LIE-berals led by the idiot son using similar censorship tactics! Muslims can rave endlessly about us but a guy who asks for proof of Muslim hate speech is arrested and charged with a HATE Crime!

Our elections are being interfered with just as much as Yankee elections and Our idiot Boy IGNORES the interference because it is on HIS side! Consider:

The biggest frustration with commenting on LIE-beral stupidity is trying to focus properly on just one stupid deed at a time! Its like shooting fish in a barrel when you snipe at LIE-berals-just SO MANY targets! And oh my, poor LIE-berals are frantic to smear Ezra Levant and Sun newspaper chain for commenting on United States political groups that give money to Cdn groups for their own selfish U.S. reasons. Lie-berals sneer at Levant and hope nobody remembers Cdn senators arguing over the amounts of money coming into Canada from foreign (mostly U. S.) sources. The Suzuki Foundation admits to having taken hundreds of thousands of dollars from U.S. groups that want to shut down our tar sands-while ramping UP their own La Brea tar sands! Its all about promoting U.S. profits at the expense of Cdns-by throwing environmental whitewash over their selfish Bullshit-with the aid of hypocrite LIE-berals!

But that is the LIE-beral way-their leader that idiot Boy with nice hair for Brains would turn us all into gagged, silent, powerless Communists-who don’t dare speak their minds-and LIE-beral party would then write ALL our history and put anybody who disagrees in a nuthouse-just like the old Soviet Gulag model that the Trudopes so admire!

One has only to read the writings of the Trudope family-with father Pierre gushing over the `genius` of Chairman Mao and his clever murder of 30 million Chinese `troublemakers`! Or son Sacha Trudope and his `love letter/homage` to bloody handed Cuban dictator Castro. And then remember that Our Pet considered the British war against Nazis to be `imperialist and Our Pet wrote often in support of revolutionaries advocating violent overthrow of the existing democratic order! Our Pet was a hard line Commie who has taught his sons to hate all things western! This is why son Sacha has linked up and made propaganda films with Revolutionary Guard approved tv producers in the pay of Iranian govt!

And our prime minister-that Brainless Boy also hates western values which is why he is against building an oil pipeline to eastern Canada-he would rather have eastern Canada buy its oil from good socialist Venezuela than from fiscally hurting/Trudope hating Alberta! Our Boy is prepared to screw over an ENTIRE PROVINCE and forgo billions of dollars in oil revenue just to support socialists in another country! And mess up Lie-beral loathing Albertans!

And Our Boy sees nothing wrong with running a series of THIRTY BILLION DOLLAR DEFICITS so he can BUY civil service Hog votes-and why not? AS a revolutionary who wants to rebuild a ruined Canada in his own image, Our Boy has NO intention of ever paying that debt back! He WANTS Canada ruined and desperate as he sees PERSONAL advantage in such chaos-in the confusion he can GRAB power just like every other budding dictator in every third world country before him!

The Trudopes HATE `imperialism`-their definition of it anyway-and they hate United States because they see it as the new imperialist Satan. And 60 percent of Canadian govt debt is held by foreigners with the lions share held by U.S. If Canada defaults on its debt it will hurt United States-and Our Boy wants that!

The Trudopes know that a weakened Unites States would have less ability to aid Israel and Sacha Trudope has already collaborated with Iran tv to produce anti Israel films. And Ezra Levant is a Jew-just how far are Trudopes and LIE-berals prepared to go in their propaganda war on Imperialism and its Cdn supporters? The Trudope Boys are playing the same mad destructive game as their father and using LIE-beral party-once described by Pierre Trudope as “spineless jellyfish” -as their pawns.

And Levant tried to `out` a Muslim radical and then failed to persuade a LIE-beral appointed judge of his evidence-and had to pay damages to the Muslim. And we all know just how reliable Muslims really are about their true intentions don’t we? And we have proof of how seriously LIE-berals take the Muslim terror threat-they have no problem importing fifty thousand Muslims in the blink of an eye!

Csis and Canada Revenue Agency have made a list of fake Muslim `charities` using Canada as a base for fund raising in support of terror organizations. And a cynic would point out that we know how LIE-berals support multi-culturalism (even if it hurts us) and LIE-berals want us to trust our new neighbours-after all, LIE-berals need immigrant votes more than they need truth don’t they?

And Levant was made to apologize to the `Roma` community-and that would include the `Shaking Lady`! You remember her-the FRAUD who came to Canada with her hubby and 30 year old son. And all three went on welfare-AND STAYED ON FOR DECADES. And to pass her time the Shaking Lady spent her days at Young and Bloor pretending to be homeless and ill-and `shaking` as if she had an untreated medical condition-like cerebral palsy or some other terrible condition and at the end of the day she would pack up and shake off around the corner and hop into the late model car her son drove courtesy of her `earnings` as a poor sick old lady! And son would drive her back to Markham to the nicely furnished apartment the happy family lived in-no shoddy govt run Jamestown hovel for her!

That poor sick old Roma lady was doing so well from her `begging` (AND WELFARE) that she took her family back to homeland Czechoslovakia for a visit with family. And while there the Czech govt HIRED HER to do a series of commercials to be shown in the Roma community-the idea being to persuade Roma career criminals that they would be better off living in wonderful, generous Canada! Only a LIE-beral would call it a victory when a LIE-beral judge ordered Levant to apologize to such people!

And Levant is facing discipline from the Cdn Law Society-that would be the same Law Society that imposed a penalty on a New Brunswick lawyer who was running for political office and went on a radio talk show and sneered at the LIE-beral Young Offenders Act-and that lawyer/aspiring politician was FINED for bringing the legal profession into disrepute!

That would be the Law Society that sees nothing wrong with `concurrent sentences` for criminals. Real Cdns feel that if you do one crime you should get one sentence but if you do TEN crimes you should get TEN sentences-NOT one concurrent sentence for all ten crimes as is currently the case. Cdns figure `life` ought to MEAN LIFE-not some other number where the clown is let back out as soon as the public outrage subsides! And Cdns figure getting TWO THIRDS OFF your already inadequate concurrent sentence simply because you have not shanked another prisoner and have not slugged some guard is NOT justification for setting you free! It is the Law Society and LIE-berals that are out of touch with Cdn reality- not Levant!

Just because Levant is at odds with LIE-beral society doe not mean he is wrong as LIE-berals would like us to think. LIE-beral judgement has been proven as badly wrong and entirely selfish. After all it was that `great` LIE-beral Mackenzie King who went to meet personally with Adolf Hitler in 1936. And he came back to Canada to tell us that “Hitler was a dour but basically good man who was bringing some much needed hope and discipline to the German people. And he was no threat to Canada!” King went on to condemn Winston Churchill as a war monger and rabble rouser!

Ezra Levant is hardly a new Churchill, but he is not a fool either-especially when we recognize that the majority of Trudope heroes happen to be bloody handed Communist monsters, and that the social and economic future of Canada is being jiggered by a LIE-beral gang that is focused on power at any price and hates most of our values! This is why the LIE-beral/NDP alliance was prepared to give Bloc Quebecois TOTAL VETO POWER over ALL legislation in parliament in exchange for Bloc support in ousting Stephan Harper! Yes-LIE-beral lust for power is so strong they were prepared to hand over control of Canada to a pack of Separatists SWORN TO DESTROY CANADA just so long as a LIE-beral became the govt figurehead! And LIE-berals want to whine about Levant as a distraction from their madness!

The only people who are hostile to Levant are Muslims, LIE-berals and civil service Hogs who are PAID to like LIE-berals and PAID to attack those who oppose LIE-berals. That`s a LIE-beral for you-to stupid to follow and too corrupt to lead!

here's something from the lefty Tyee....


Why it’s a mistake to celebrate the crackdown on hate websites

Many people understandably applaud these efforts to stamp out hate speech and other objectionable content. However, internet companies’ efforts as de facto regulators of speech raises serious questions: How should online content be regulated? By whom?

The takedown of the Daily Stormer undoubtedly makes the world a better place. But do we really want companies like Facebook and Twitter to decide – independently, arbitrarily and secretly – what content we can access and share?

Given these seemingly intractable problems, what can we do? First, we should avoid governing on the basis of protests or media pressure. Instead, we need a clear set of rules to enable intermediaries to respond consistently, transparently and with respect for due process, as Prince recommended.

Governments should clarify the nature of and, importantly, the limitations of intermediaries’ regulatory responsibilities. Finally, we must stop governing in response to specific crises – so-called “fake news,” terrorism and hate groups – and instead think critically about how we can and should govern the internet.

So being Ira is Jewish, I guess this is anti semetism....
oh look

George Soros[edit]
In September 2010, Levant wrote a column for Sun Media accusing George Soros of funding avaaz.org, a group lobbying to stop Sun Media being granted a licence for Sun TV News Channel, and strongly attacking Soros's character and history by alleging that as a child he collaborated with the Nazis.[33] Soros threatened to sue Sun Media for libel[33] and on September 18, Sun Media issued a retraction and apology to Soros.[34]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ezra_Levant#Early_life_and_education

He pissed off the lefty nazi soros himeself who funds shutting down free speech where ever he can. Thats Soros the declaired "enemy of the state" of Both israel and hungery...
You know Soros...Trudeau and Hitlary's buddy

A private corporation choosing what it will and will not do with its property is shades of 1984?

Sounds like capitalism and property rights to me.

They are probably afraid of being sued silly because of the parade of wampeters, foama and granfaloons that keep the gormless audiences coming back for more.

Conservative is not a race.

It is sometimes a caucus race.
