Uninstall Firefox.
As Princeton Professor of Jurisprudence Robert George warned on my radio show, today the left fires employees for opposition to same-sex marriage. Tomorrow it will fire employees who are pro-life (“anti-woman”). And next it will be employees who support Israel (an “apartheid state”).
The reason to boycott Firefox is not that it is run by leftists. Nor is the reason to support the man-woman definition of marriage. It is solely in order to preserve liberty in the land of liberty. If Firefox doesn’t recant and rehire Eich as CEO, McCarthyism will have returned far more pervasively and perniciously than in its first incarnation. The message the gay left (such as the Orwellian-named Human Rights Campaign) and the left in general wish to send is that Americans who are in positions of power at any company should be forced to resign if they hold a position that the left strongly opposes.
And switching to Google’s Chrome might not be a good political option either.
I use Seamonkey, which though based on the same Mozilla code is now a separate and independent organization.
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either. IMPORTANT! If you donate enough to get a book, please email me separately to tell me which book you want and the address to mail it to.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

Haven’t tried SeaMonkey but Pale Moon is doing great for me. Easy to transfer and all add-on (AdBlock Plus) work. Faster too, but otherwise looks just like Firefox. And the programmer who created it, while not against gay marriage, voiced his dismay with Mozilla’s decisions.
While I was at it I swapped my Chrome for Iron. Also just as good , although I haven’t used it as much, but it made me feel better. I like Chrome and even many things from Google but for some reason I just don’t trust them.
First, one faction boycotts Mozilla for installing Eich as CEO, then a very different group wants to boycott Mozilla for not standing up to the bullies.
Almost a catch-22.
I also use Seamonkey and now find that it is not perceived as different from Firefox. This morning, using Seamonkey, when clicking on a link to an article on redstate.com, I got one of those pages that try to shame you for using Firefox (one extra click to get to the destination). It seems that the “browser ID” string which this browser sends to the web-host contains both the Seamonkey version number *and* the equivalent Firefox version number.
In my case, it looks like:
Firefox/28.0 SeaMonkey/2.25
Argh!
