Politico Upset that WhatsApp Doesn't Censor Election News

Gasp! Politico has uncovered a corner of the Web that as of yet remains uncensored and thus allows unapproved messages to reach people. This is simply intolerable, at least from the Politico POV as presented by their tech policy reporter Rebecca Kern on Friday in "WhatsApp Channels, used by millions, has no clear election rules."

Yes, we humble prols need rules, rules, RULES to guide us on how to think and to steer us away from dangerous ThoughtCrimes in this election year.

The definition of "Misinformation" is TRUE information that runs counter to the liberal narrative that they want to suppress.

The rules were unspoken when the Old Media controlled the narrative, from 1960 to 1994, at minimum.

Now, when some truth is leaking out at multiple, uncontrolled points, the Left is all for censorship.

[wildcard_redneck]

Those who would censor you have plans to murder you if they can.

[Gay State Conservative]

Politico? Yah,that figures.

[MinorityRepublican]

Weird. Zuck owns WhatsApp. I guess he’s not paying attention to it.

I doubt that Richard Nixon would have been forced to resign.

They may have impeached him. But he'll survive in the Senate. Then he'll be able to finish out his term. (If the Watergate scandal happened today)

I doubt that Richard Nixon would have been forced to resign.

I believe you are correct. Watergate was a Media coup by the Washington Post and (almost certainly) the CIA.

[MinorityRepublican]

Yeah. Time to destroy the Washington Post now. Jeff Bezos will probably lose patience with it and shut down the paper.

“ Jeff Bezos will probably lose patience with it and shut down the paper.”

Bezos owns Amazon and the Covid hysteria hugely increased their market share and put physical store competitors out of business.

"The definition of "Misinformation" is TRUE information that runs counter to the liberal Marxist narrative that they want to suppress."

No charge for the repairs.

[Uncle Miltie]

Whatsapp is essentially the phone / email / text / social media system of all of Israel. You can’t function without it.
