Portland, Oregon Based Blues Singer Curtis Salgado Censors Critics?

DysfunctionalRelations — Sun, 27 Aug 2023 15:37:18 -07:00

Notorious Portland, Oregon based blues singer Curtis Salgado appears to be censoring critics online. This author learned of this recently after receiving a warning from Reddit not to share personal information after they blamed me for an auto-shared link to a short profile of Salgado which was created as part of a research project on celebrities with specific medical conditions many years ago. The profile cited an old article from The Oregonian which talked about Salgado using his fame to help other people with the same condition (https://blog.oregonlive.com/breakingnews/2007/04/salgado_concert_today_highligh.html). Perhaps other aspects of the site in question make burying its content important to Salgado or maybe he simply hired a reputation management company to suppress anything he finds undesirable for any reasons and they thought it worth their time. It may have even been an offended fan for all this author knows. Either way a associate/fan of Salgado crossed a line by censoring articles based on his high profile public activities or perhaps somebody just wanted to bait this author into publicly attacking a celebrity by filing complaints about a URL mentioning a celebrity. Reddit actually removing the link and issuing a warning is most disturbing because it means posting links to information available from the mainstream media can get you in trouble now. The article the removed link to missed a major relevant factor of Salgado's history. According to Willamette Week he is a convicted sex offender (https://www.wweek.com/portland/blog-31253-oregon-lawmakers-honor-musician-and-sex-offender-curtis-salgado.html). WW didn't go into any meaningful details about Salgado's crime other than describing the laws he violated as those which punish "adults who have sex with minors." His conviction was in 1996. The video below features Salgado talking about his experience living with Hepatitis C. He is raising awareness for the Caring Ambassadors Program which helps people with Hepatitis C (https://caringambassadors.org/). CONCLUSION Curtis Salgado has no business burying negative articles about himself. He gave that up as a legitimate activity in 1996 when he became a convicted sex offender. On top of that he is a public figure. Public figures have no business going after content from small websites based on their own public statements. However, this could be a false flag operation.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Bugs/Glitches

Mr.CorrectTruth — Tue, 17 Nov 2020 20:11:52 -08:00

Playing Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War the past few days on an Xbox One X has been frustrating due to bugs. Two specifically come to mind and one is game breaking. The first less severe bug that I noticed was crosshairs on weapons not working in multiplayer. When this happens you can see the crosshairs partially, but they become pixilated and at times invisible. This can be very frustrating when you aim down your gun at an opponent and have to guess at where the center is. This is not game breaking, but annoying none the less. The second bug is game breaking. A few minutes ago I was hit with a napalm strike in multiplayer and the game froze. I looked at a frozen screen of my character being blown up for about a minute until my console crashed. There are of course other glitches in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. 11 of them you can learn about in the video below. You can also check out the link on this page to learn about the calling card glitch.

Additional Audio includes the GTA IV Old Bitch Ring Tone, the Wilhelm Scream, and The Sentinel By Judas Priest
