Beware the Revolutionary Oppressed
Has there ever been a truly benevolent regime which does not oppress its population?
Do revolutionary leaders not seize the same reins to their own ends?
About eight years ago Tony Gosling was being silenced on a systematic basis by the editors of the UK Indymedia website. Many people who believed that he had a right to be heard supported him and regularly challenged the censorship which was imposed on him. It was believed that UK Indymedia was far from independent and that their claim for open publishing was pretty hollow - though they would always claim that they 'hid' rather than delete undesirable posts - hiding meaning that the post was buried in a way that was only discoverable by the more savvy visitor to the site. The post itself was rendered virtually unreadable by being placed on a dark grey background with the word 'HIDDEN' tessellated diagonally.
The oppressed Tony Gosling somehow eventually found himself as an Administrator on the UK 9/11 Truth Movement forum - www.911forum.org.uk/board - and has imposed his own tyranny. Tony Gosling does not limit himself to merely hiding posts - he edits them and/or their titles, deletes them and imposes penalties which range from temporary to permanent bans for anybody who so much as posts in the wrong section. Yet, like a drunken Boris Yeltsin, posts an article entitled '£5 to drive a steam train - bank holiday fun' in a section described as 'The Bigger Picture: The Oligarchs of the global elite: their strategems, their lies; and their downfall... Looking forward, with vision, to a just world in the future.' No irony there, then?
Having recently discovered that I had been labelled a 9/11 Truth Critic, i.e. somebody who endorses the official story of 9/11, I have received an indefinite ban, ostensibly for swearing but in reality for privately criticising Goslings exclusive fascist regime.
Gosling told me once that he saw his role as 'Editor' rather than 'Moderator' (before he was promoted to Administrator), which perfectly illustrates his frustrated hunger for power. As an 'Administrator', he now has the ultimate authority but as has been seen, his subjects are fleeing. Of course, when this is pointed out to the C-in-C, he draws attention to the number of visitors the forum has - whether in oblivion or wilful mendacity of the fact that those numbers will consist almost entirely of searchbots spidering the site and spambots trying to register phoney accounts.
The 9/11 Truth forum became unmanageable some time ago - populated by fools and agents provocateurs promoting ridiculous 'theories'. I only returned to it to see if there was any sensible comment on Zeitgeist and The Venus Project's blatant NWO propaganda - it seems that Gosling has presided over the forums virtual disintegration, the forum's original mod/admin team sensibly abandoning ship and leaving the comic book dictator to entertain himself and personify all that he claims to oppose in doing so.
