Blog Julio Severo in Portuguese arbitrarily shut down by Google in Brazil
By Julio
Severo
In
the first minutes of Thursday, October 23, Blog Julio Severo, established by
me, Julio Severo, in 2005 to reach Brazilians with information usually unavailable
to them, disappeared from the Internet, with no hacking attack involved. All
that was evident, from my careful verification, is that such disappearing was
provoked and decided by the owner of the Blogspot service, Google, which freely
offers to the international public a free speech platform.
The
traditional address of my Portuguese blog is: http://juliosevero.blogspot.com/
The
address is now completely off-line, with no approval from me or communication
from Google. I have never been notified about some alleged violent or pornographic
post that might have caused Google to suspend my blog for supposedly violating
its policies. Now, only my blogs in other languages, including English,
continue active.
So I
ask the public to get in contact with Google to reestablish my Portuguese blog,
which has a history of about ten years in Brazil.
It is
known that many of my articles do not please everybody — especially socialists,
pro-abortion and pro-homosexuality activists and other antifamily militants.
But freedom for dissenting voices is part of democracy.
My
latest Portuguese article, which may supposedly have provoked the shutdown of
my blog, was about the Brazilian presidential elections that will happen next
Sunday. I have supported no candidate, because they promote the gay agenda,
viewed by Christians as anti-family.
Even
in this inflamed season of Brazilian elections, I have a right to speak out
against the two candidates, and this right should not be violated for the
benefit of the parties and candidates who were criticized with adequate
civility.
Many
Brazilians have chosen to vote for Dilma Rousseff (an anti-U.S. socialist, but
only in economic, not moral, aspects) or Aécio Neves (a pro-U.S. socialist in
everything, both economically and morally), but both are radically pro-gay
agenda.
While
Brazilians, who are obliged to vote by Brazilian antidemocratic laws, will make
their political choices based only on economy, I have made my choice not to
vote, based on the intent by both candidates to disfigure, for the benefit of
the gay agenda, family, which is, before the State, the first institution
established by God. Therefore, family has precedence and absolute priority over
the State and economy. It is based on this absolute priority that I reject both
Brazilian candidates.
The
Brazilian presidential election will happen next Sunday, and the voice of my
blog, which offered a glimpse of information in the thick darkness of the
Brazilian antifamily politics, has been silenced by force, leaving the
Brazilian public with no access to a Christian viewpoint that does not support
any of the anti-U.S. and pro-U.S. pro-sodomy candidates.
The
last time my blog was shut down was in 2007, when many people, including
philosopher Olavo de Carvalho and a federal prosecutor, took action, Olavo
denouncing, and the prosecutor getting in contact with Google. In that time,
Google told the prosecutor that my blog promoted hate and discrimination
against homosexual activists. He answered them that he had never seen any of it
in my articles. Before this Brazilian official, Google gave way and returned my
blog to me.
How could you help now?
