The only way to change this is to jettison FB and twatter and all the rest of the censorship. As long as people continue to use these horrid platforms, they will continue to control the narrative.

I agree, but the problem is if we ever want to expand our base and reach more normies, we have to have access to those big sites, where we can potentially wake new people up. Thanks.

Donald, I don't know if you've thought of or tried this yet. Videos or audio podcasts on some of the "FREE" platforms could help spread your message. This current post is long enough to expand into a podcast or a video. Brighteon.com and Rumble I think are good places to post videos. There may still be some freedom left in RSS feeds too. Just one more possible avenue to get your message out without the stupid censorship.

I think that if free speech was a concern or a priority to Elon Musk. Every banned Twitter account would have been reinstated by now. I think that guy is controlled opposition anyway. He sort of reminds me of Donald Trump with his conversational hypnosis. I think conversational hypnosis could be the official definition for people speaking exactly what people want to hear. Having no intention of righting any wrongs or imparting any benefits to the listeners before their lips start moving. Though I don't or never made any money off the net. There are still a few spots on the web where an audience can be reached. Minds and MeWe come to mind.

Good suggestions, Mary. Thanks!

I didn't think of this yesterday. It's something that someone else may be doing already. It would be a time saver in getting the same message out on video and audio. With the right tech I think audio can be ripped from videos. So there's the video and audio podcast done in one speaking session.

Just found out a few minutes ago that audio can be extracted from the free VLC media player. I love that player and never had any buggy issues to deal. It's my default media player.

accts are re instated every day. rumble was purchased by a bigcorp. they require a phone # to comment or "like". bitchute is another alt platform. i mentioned both of these to donald almost a year ago, several times.

I ordered Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963 and just started reading this weekend. I started with the chapter on human experimentation and my eyes nearly fell out of my head. I look forward to reading more and will share with others.

I really appreciate that, Becky. Thanks!

You should get on rumble. It's growing by leaps and bounds and is an alternative to YouTube.

So sorry DJ is shadow banned. I enjoy listening to him, how can we stop this? He is innovative, interesting, and full of information. I am so disgusted with these social media platforms. Keep the faith, can’t wait to read your new books.

Thank you, Robin!

How do I promote myself in a rigged system?

Easy peasy... Just title everything as Trans makeup tutorials then use code. The Illuminati is blush. Rothchilds are obviously red lipstick. Covid is a mud mask, etc.

Good luck on being the next sensation, Donna!

You're not really being satirical, Ranch. Thanks!

I just followed you on Twitter; will enroll in Goodreads to give 5-Star there; and will finally purchase the Audible version of your "Hidden Histories" (which I've had in my save for later collection). Sadly, Amazon banned me from submitting reviews of anything (I don't know why - many have been similarly banned for no reason).

Perhaps I'll meet Billy Ray one day. I imagine he can't be too far (me in Queens, NY).

Thank you so much, brother!

I'm in the middle of going broke, closing factory and moving my life to a property belonging to an old mate, so nothing to give I'm sorry. I did go and rate your books though. Maybe in future I might be able to order some for my library. I will be having more time for reading and hopefully better able to afford to do some things I can't right now.

Facebook has me shadow banned for many years now. I am always running afoul of their Factfuckers and ridiculous rulings. Twitter has had me suspended for years. The excuses used were rubbish and would not even register under current rules, supposedly. Yet upon appealing them recently, I got the standard response saying, paraphrased, that I was suspended for good reason and nothing was going to change, I am an unperson forever more. Musk is full of shit. Just a few high profile accounts reinstated and the idea is to give Twitter a new mask. Now many can assume it is free speech and anyone like me who is suspended must be so bad after all. A load of garbage.

No reason why you shouldn't do whatever you can to get past the censorship. I just don't think there's much to be done.

Rating my books was the kind of thing I was asking for, Rabbitnexus, and I truly appreciate it. I should have noted in the article that people can suggest their library add my books to their collection. Doesn't cost anything, and I get the same sale I would if they purchased it. And it gets in the hands of more potential readers. I understand what you're saying, my friend. Thanks!

The one star bandits gets me. That sort of crap pisses me off. I get it in business too. Some importers of cheap crap do that to our product online I've found and then you get complete dickheads who crap on you for the wrong reasons. We got a one star review from a customer pissed off with our "unsealed carpark" -- which was bullshit. Our carpark is good, large and sealed. This prawn parked next door in the neighbor's parking lot.

Is this a promotion to follow you on Facebook? Can that be done, even though you can't accept more friends?

Expand full comment

Not looking for more friends on Facebook- I'm at the limit. But they come and go, so if anyone wants to try, that's fine. I'm concentrating more on the other platforms, which I mentioned in the article. And my web site, which I should have mentioned, is donaldjeffries.media. Thanks.

Hey Donald have you tried to reach out directly to Elon Musk on your Shadow Ban? It's worth a try.

Expand full comment

I have. Shockingly enough, he didn't reply. He does have a million or so more followers than me, so he probably has to wade through a lot of tweets. Thanks.

That's a shame.

There is a price to pay for being a truth teller; scorn, rejection, ostracization and poverty. I'm sure you've paid that price your whole life (well, maybe not the poverty part). I know I have. The price went up for most truth tellers over the last three years (but not for me, as I had already dropped so I far out of American life, there was nothing they could take from me). Social media is a black hole of time wasting...yet I know you need it for business. I have been listening to you for two years, and you have become for me, the voice of Everyman...the original John Doe. I hope you take that as a compliment.

Even Amazon and Google reviews, and YouTube comments are shadow banned. One wonders why they let the reviewer/commenter linger with the belief that their effort is worth their time? Because if everyone realized the system was rigged, everyone would stop playing.

I do take that as a great compliment, Kris. The truth has never been popular. Thanks!

how do you explain over 3000 listeners for project veritas twitter space? i am sure there are more listeners than that evening. how do you explain very controversial people not shadowed? these are people who are not household names & do not have funding. i have no explaination either! one thing i can explain: you rarely mention the persons name who you interview. when you do, there is no indication of the subject. that in itself does not bring reactions or comments, most people just scroll by. youtubers/FB ers/tweeters give us a title. the publicist has no idea about packaging.

Expand full comment

I don't know why Project Veritas, Whitney Webb, Louder with Crowder, and many others have grown and aren't censored. Those kinds of things lead to allegations of controlled opposition, etc. I would promote my programs more, but how can I when both Facebook and Twitter block the posts from most people? I always appreciate your interest, Laura.

They have to let some through. Otherwise it becomes too easy to see the censorship. They always have controlled opposition, also pysop gate keepers. The most well heard from 9/11 Truthers for example, were always the clowns who had bought into the CIA fake of "No Planes" They were allowed to be fairly prominent, to the extent they were the main thing heard about 9/11 Truth. Tarring the whole movement by association. There are some who cover some hot issues, but still buy into the establishment lies in crucial ways. Joe Rogan for example. By allowing some dissidents to be seen, and these are battled openly and treated as the most marginal ideas, the most extreme if you will, they make the really hard stuff vanish for most people's awareness.

Donald, I understand your frustration. Personally I walked away from algo-infested FB and Twitter years ago and have no intention of going back. In the end, to change "the narrative," it isn't how many readers, but who those readers are that matters.

Substack has been good-- so far. For getting out word of mouth nothing beats something actually printed on paper-- books still sell. There is also ye olde grapevine. It might seem that FB and Twitter (and I'd add, Whatsapp) have superceded that, but not entirely.

FB and Twitter, by sophisticated design, suck up your time.

Don't think I don't see the B.J. Fogg stuff here in Substack, too. I mean to say, Substack is addictive by design. But I do appreciate it as a platform for free speech, and I appreciate your blog. Cheers!

You may be shadow banned Donald, but you are important enough that "they" have assigned you your own personal troll.

Donald this is great. Thanks. I'd like it if you'd post your schedule weekly. I didn't even know you had a YouTube channel. Sometimes I get notification from your Twitter. I'm new on Twitter and don't do much with it but I'm shadow banned there too.
