Fuck Google

This cuts it, I want out

The GOOGLE jackboots are at it again.  They shut me down a few weeks ago because I fit the profile of a spammer.  Despite their protestations to the contrary, my old site has been unusable since then.  But this ? This cuts it for me, and I really don't give a rat's ass what content this site carried (in fact,  by comparison to democratunderground.com, or Moveon.org,  ''thestudyofrevenge'' is all-American Fivers - here's a sample to the right).  As you can see, any jerk can holler rape, and Google's Goons will slap on a scarlet letter on them. These people really bother me.  Were you aware of how close Google is to establishing it's own internet?  Bad vibes. Very bad.

Look, I have a few bucks in my Pay Pal account, and I want out of Blogger, and I do not want to spend a second learning about the backbone.  You can see the format I use, what could be simpler?  I will want to gather all my  archives (Movable Type, Blog Spot, Blogger), and I have yet to see anyone who could pull that off. I have a Word Press  site that I haven't really looked at, other than to try and find the index file, and fail.  Of course, I have an old Movable Type account that is so screwed up, all I can do is post (can't even edit).  Anyone interested in doing an install, let me know. 


BLOGGERS - if you haven't already, paste this into the HEAD of your template.  It gets rid of the Header that allows the easily offended to go running to the thought police.

<style type="text/css">

#b-navbar {
   height:0px;
   visibility:hidden;
   display:none
   }

</style>

Is that what's going on!?!?!? We're out in GA right now and I'm unable to access http://curmudgeonlyskeptical.blogspot.com
UNLESS..(shhhh, don't tell google..) I click on terpsboy and from there access the "REAL." Wow, I never knew you were such a threat. I just like the personality and style of your blog.
Did you say, something about "pork, bacon, pigs, or ...?" BTW, just thank a Democrap for caring so much. Joyce

I don't know if it's a local (GA)thing, Rodger, but I cannot access your site through google at this time. If I search you on Yahoo, I find and connect w/your current blogspot. Also,BIG NOTE: Above info regards using IE. When switching to FireFox...You are right on target w/google search. Our son's a programmer -
and his best friend works for yahoo. I'll ask about info for you, and I'll send our son's website address if you want - to ask Q's. He already likes you for Beach Blanket Bingo :) 'Joyce

Awsome link. I particularly liked the incredibly offensive image at

If the islamofascists were troubled by Mohammed with a bomb in his turban, they will literally shit themselves when they see that!!

Google has dumped saysuncle and a bunch of other pro-self-defense bloggers from appearing in the results of it's search engine.

I would suggest going to dogpile ... google is now censoring US searches.

Rodger the Real King of France said...

Okay, I added a Dogpile search box under the header.

Hmmm. I'm afraid I'm going to have to contact Google to report some content that I find seriously offensive - specifically, that content warning. I'm serious. I don't imagine it'll have any effect (much less receive a response). But I'll do it anyway.

Google once summarized their buisiness strategy as simply, "Don't be evil." Once upon a time I believed they meant it; guess they fooled me.

I'm actually mildly surprised they didn't nuke the content altogether... But something tells me this story is just getting started; we'll see.

Dunno if this has been posted before, but one may easily add search engines to Mozilla/Firefox from Mycroft. Dogpile is now my search engine of choice. w00t!!1
