In case you haven’t noticed, the UK Guardian is a vastly left leaning news out, and they aren’t afraid to show it. They consistently take a hard left line on everything. They are also one of the leading Cult of Climastrology papers in the world. They are one of the few who consistently have articles about ‘climate change’. Well, incoming!
Thousands Sign Petition to Shut Down Guardian over Links to Slavery, Anti-Lincoln Propaganda
The British left’s flagship newspaper is facing the call to eat its own tail, after more than 12,000 people have signed a petition calling for the liberal, pro-Black Lives Matter Guardian to be shut down over its historical links to slavery and for siding with the Confederate states during the American Civil War.
The Change.org petition to the Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) already has more than 12,000 signatures with the number growing hourly, spurred on by accusations against the newspaper of hypocrisy for backing the far-left BLM while having a history connected to slavery.
The call comes after far-left activists have demanded the removal of statues of prominent figures in British history who may have profited from slavery, supported colonialism, or even have been wrongly accused of extremism.
The Guardian had published pieces in the past admitting not only did it print anti-Lincoln propaganda, but said Manchester’s working-class mill workers who refused to touch plantation cotton — in solidarity with black American slaves — should be effectively subjected to slavery themselves and forced back to work.
The then-named Manchester Guardian was founded in 1821 by John Edward Taylor, who profited from cotton plantation slavery, according to political website Guido Fawkes. After he died in 1844, the newspaper continued its relationship with the slave trade, making money from the slave-backing cotton mill owners of Manchester who paid for advertising.
During Black History Month in 2008, The Guardian published a letter revealing that the newspaper had printed confederate propaganda against Abraham Lincoln in October 1862, writing that “it was an evil day both for America and the world when he was chosen President of the United Statesâ€.
See, it doesn’t matter that this was well over 150 years: Cancel Culture never forgets, and past transgressions must be the cause of current day destruction. It doesn’t matter if the transgressor is an A+ ally: they must be destroyed. If something came out about CNN, Media Matters, Daily Kos, and so forth, the SJWs would go hard at them.
Even though I think this is nuts, and the Guardian shouldn’t be punished for things so long ago, hey, they’ve asked for this with their hardcore Modern Socialism. They refuse to allow counter-voices to be hear, especially in the climate section. They advocate for other outlets in the UK and around the world to shut down climate skeptics, and anyone else who doesn’t toe the line. So, this is rather ironic, and they’re getting a taste of what they give.
The irony here is the Manchester Guardian was hardcore Red in the 20th century.
MAKE THIS VIDEO GO VIRAL – Another day in Trump’s America
https://commoncts.blogspot.com/2020/06/make-this-video-go-viral-another-day-in.html
They are now coming for Trump’s rallies. The mayor of Tulsa learned that Even Trump can’t hold a rally without the Left Fascist coming to say you didn’t build that. You don’t own that, you can have that and you certainly can’t support anyone other than who we say you can support.
When will America fight back? This is a movement controlled by leftist from other countries. Hollywood donated millions of dollars for bail for those arrested in the riots. So far they have paid only 200k while millions ended up where?
A warlord. Yes I guess we have warlords in the USA now is in charge of Seattle and is gun running. The left is opposed to walls. The first thing they did was build a wall. The left is against ID’s and the first thing you have to do is have your ID checked at the border wall. The left is against guns, yet they patrol their new country with guns. The left is all for fair trials and yet they beat a man senseless for stealing without even a judge and jury to weight the evidence.
Mob mentality is running America. It is spreading worldwide. It is being stoked by foreign actors, and meanwhile the right in America does nothing. We hide in our basements, wearing our masks, obeying the law and watch Trump’s numbers slip to depressing levels. The silent majority?
I propose to you they will be afraid to vote in 2020. Fascism is alive in America and it is not wearing a MAGA hat.
But, but, but, if the Guardian can be taken down ’cause it supported slavery so long ago, then why aren’t the woke trying to take down the Democratic Party, given that it was the Democrats who were supporting slavery and raised the standard of the Confederacy 160 years ago?
Dana, that question has been driving me nuts for years. Any black who sides with or votes for a Democrat is siding with slavers, racists and the KKK.
Kye conflates the conservatives of slavery, racism and the KKK with the progressive Democratic Party of today. White Con Men today claim they have no obligation for the actions of their forefathers regarding slavery and racism, yet insist that progressive Democrats today are responsible for the conservative institution of slavery. Twisted logic.
Why do you suppose American Blacks are hostile toward the GOP today? (The claim that 40% of Blacks support tRump is unsupported by evidence).

The “progressive Democratic” Party of today still relies on taking advantage of blacks. The Welfare Plantation is real and is yet another manipulation of blacks into a position of permanent inequality. And the “progressive” movements of the 20th century prospered on the bodies of millions in the same way the Democrats prosper on the bodies of young black males.
White Con Men today claim they have no obligation for the actions of their forefathers regarding slavery and racism, yet insist that progressive Democrats today are responsible for the conservative institution of slavery. Twisted logic.
Not a Conservative institution. Slavery in the form of welfare dependence is is “progressive”, maintaining a permanent underclass dependent on Massa’s handouts while kept at the bottom of the socio-economic layer by poor education and mass media controlled by Leftists to ensure blacks are focused only on instant gratification of the basest desires.
It’s all very “progressive”
Twisted logic.
You certainly are.
Why do you suppose American Blacks are hostile toward the GOP today? (The claim that 40% of Blacks support tRump is unsupported by evidence).
No, polls are pretty firm on it. Younger blacks like Trump (that magic 3-letter word, JOBS) and like his tell-it-like-it-is style. That’s why the media and the Democrats are trying to keep the blacks stirred up.
Too bad it requires so many white Leftists. They’re getting busted all over the place.
Oh for God’s sake face it Elwood, the people you call “the conservatives of slavery, racism and the KKK” were fukin’ Democrats, 100% and the abolitionists were Republicans.
The Democrat party went from country slavers to urban slavers they just changed the demography of where they herd their darkies. Of course now they “pay” their people with free cheese, food, housing, healthcare etc. not paid for by them but but the taxpayers. And all they ask is devotional voting every two years.
“White Con Men today claim they have no obligation for the actions of their forefathers regarding slavery and racism, yet insist that progressive Democrats today are responsible for the conservative institution of slavery. Twisted logic.”
White “conmen” today are Republicans! Just like the Anti-Slavers of yeaterday. Do you know any Democrat conmen? Name one Democrat conservative, one. Your whole party is radical leftist, racist an America haters just like in 1861. And since I had three forefathers fighting in the Civil War on the side of the North all of whom were dyed in the wool abolitionists you obviously just want to pass the blame for YOUR SINS onto others. It goes along with your uncanny ability to project the racism and hate that fester in you onto others.
The “institution of slavery” was neither conservative nor Republican. You do realize slavery existed as far back as man’s existence, long, long before conservatives or Republicans were ever dreamed of. And slavery was institutionalized in the American South by the Democrats. The only Twisting going on here is you trying to twist your way out of being labeled what you are, a racist. Ans a member of a party that has committed human rights violations since it’s inception and still is. The entire Democrat platform from abortion to racial unrest is a massive Crime Against Humanity and you’re part of it. Period.
BTW, American blacks are hostile toward whites regardless of their party. They vot Democrat because you trained them like monkeys to do your bidding. They live in American Cities that have been controlled by Democrats for 50, 60, 70 years and are WORSE OFF TODAY then they were when the GOP got the Civil Rights Bill passed. That’s also part of your crimes. The institutionalizing of black ghettos, generational welfare, black crime, black illiteracy, black drug use, black abortion. You have murdered more
blacks than the KKK ever dreamed of. And you’re still doing it. And when a black climbs out of your stinkin’ ghettos you call him names and try to discredit him unless he a ball player or performer then he’s okay cause he’s “acting black”. You’re genocidal pigs and you know it. Someday you should think about that. Going into you golden years still as stupid and ignorant and as unwilling to see other views is not a good idea. Most thinking people by the time they reach your age have matured and begun thinking about this stuff. You seem to still be stuck on stupid.

Blacks have been fed a steady diet of socialist pie in the sky for 50 years, but Zippy was supposed to be the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Nothing changed because Zippy is whiter than even the Bush family.
Now young blacks aren’t buying the program any more.
