New News Aggregator — Truth. Based. Media. — “Better than Drudge Report, plus unlike Drudge they love America!”
Editor’s Commentary: Last month, we saw a loosening of restrictions by Big Tech surrounding the Covid-19 injections. Even corporate media started talking a bit about inefficacy and adverse reactions. But that was last month, and by the middle of this month they were reengaging in their censorship and suppression agenda.
Our brief holiday during which I was able to say, “The jabs kill,” without being banned by Big Tech is over. Now, they apparently have received a clarifying memo that says the truth needs to be bottled up and buried in the backyard.
They’re even going after carrots now. On today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show, I broke down an article by Didi Rankovic:
Facebook Deletes Group That Used Carrot Emojis as Code Words for the “Vaccine” After BBC Complains
After the War on Memes, the War on Emojis seems to be upon us. Leading the charge for now is Facebook, and the BBC.
The latter has been flagging Facebook groups that use the carrot emoji as “code” to represent the word “(Covid) vaccine,” in the context of posting testimonies about alleged harm from these vaccines. And the emoji is apparently used in a bid to avoid widespread censorship of the topic on the giant platform.
Facebook has responded, the BBC suggests, by removing several groups with hundreds of thousands of members after the media outlet reported them. But, the BBC is still on the case and is reporting that “the groups have since re-appeared in our searches.”
One of the large groups targeted by the broadcaster was formed three years ago as a way to share funny content but has recently put more focus on the vaccine.
Yet another with a quarter million members instructed them to use code words rather than “Covid, vaccine, booster” – and even in stating these rules, had to resort to referring to “c-word, v-word and b-word” – aware that Facebook’s automated censorship system deletes any form of Covid vaccine skepticism.
But the BBC was there as a “human moderator” for the giant, and Qatar’s Hamad Bin Khalifa University associate professor Marc Owen-Jones also played a role in identifying that something “very odd” was happening in a Facebook group they got invited to.
In it, people were sharing stories about alleged Covid vaccine victims that they knew, but instead of using the word “vaccine,” they went for the carrot emoji. Eventually, the professor figured it out, tweeting that this was “presumably to evade censorship” and to “evade, or apparently evade” Facebook’s “fake news” algorithms.
It is not “fake news” per se that the vaccine can cause harm, as there are documented cases; however, the BBC reporting suggests that the stories shared on the affected groups were “unverified claims.”
Not that everything posted on Facebook has to be a “verified claim,” but the giant said these groups were deleted because they violated its “harmful misinformation policy.”
Facebook added: “We continue to work closely with public health experts and the UK government to further tackle Covid vaccine misinformation.”
And, apparently, they also work with mainstream media.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!

The premise upon which the move is based is insane… Only the insane cannot recognize insanity. I’m not insane. I recognize insanity when I encounter it. “Insaniacs to the left of me, insaniacs to the right here I am”. One may draw one’s own conclusions. Ever see the movie “five million years to Earth? The one from the ‘vacuum tube age? Or the documentary, “Idiocracy”?
There are millions more emojis where that came from. This week = apple. Next week = banana. Etc. They can’t keep banning all those emojis.
