I’m re-running this post by Jill, our webmaster, as a public service to new readers–or as a cry for help, take your pick.
Not one new follower since May 11. That’s got to be wrong.
I looked into signing up with Parler, but I didn’t understand the instructions (when I read about tech stuff, it just doesn’t stick to my brain) and anyway they wanted my cell phone number and I don’t have a cell phone.
I’m pretty sure I’m being sabotaged. And not the only one, either.
As I mentioned yesterday, throughout the ten-year history of this blog, we regularly picked up a few new followers every week. That’s how we got to 1,700 of them.
But we have added NO new followers since May 11.
Yesterday I asked for readers to try to follow this blog. Just click the “Following” button on the bottom right-hand corner of the page. The results:
Zero new followers.
Zero comments from anyone who tried to do it and it didn’t work.
Zero comments from readers who tried it and were told it worked, without any sign of it happening on this end.
And of course the viewership numbers are way below what they used to be. It’s very, very frustrating.
I’m convinced Big Tech is messing with us to cut conservatives off from one another, to silence us without resorting to out-and-out banning, because that might be a step too far and might force Congress to take action. Probably the only thing to do would be to somehow get this blog onto one of the new platforms that isn’t owned by the Far Left fascists at Google.
Please, somebody, let me know–have you tried to follow this blog, and weren’t able to do it? What happened when you tried?
It’s taking forever, but now we have just under 1,000 comments to go to reach our milestone of 75,000. And the lucky winner who posts No. 75,000 will win one of these really cool T-shirts. It’s in MAGA red, to make leftids grind their teeth, and the caption says, “If they have to kill us, they’ve lost. –Lee Duigon”.
Or you can win an autographed copy of one of my books.
Please follow this blog. The bad guys at Google will hate it if you do; they’re trying to bury me, and doing a pretty good job of it. Well, not just me: they want to stifle all conservative bloggers, and they do it by manipulating the search engines to make our blogs and comments hard to find.
Time was we’d rack up another 1,000 comments in a couple weeks. Now it’ll probably take months. *sigh* At the rate we’re going, I’ve got enough shirts to last the rest of the century.
I’m not asking you for money, I’m not even asking you to buy my books (although that would be very nice and I’d be very happy to see it). I’m just asking you to visit as often as you can while I tread water.
