Apparently, publishing a study that the vaccinated have a 1300% greater chance of getting COVID than the unvaccinated who have acquired natural immunity, is now worthy of censorship.

Should people like Alex be censored? No. However, the censorship is a reality to be dealt with. Anybody on twit, screwtube, Fakebook who is depending on them for ‘communication’ & isn’t already posting on a non-censoring platform as well .... not smart.

I have a permanent suspension from Twitter and don’t even post. They mustn’t like someone I followed or they made a mistake. I sure as hell ain’t making an appeal for them to reverse it.

He’s said on Tucker’s show many times that this was inevitable.

No public utility should ever have a censorship policy.

Twitter, Facebook, etc. should ban folks who explicitly call for violence. Otherwise, they should just add a disclaimer to any post they think is incorrect. Something like: “We believe that one or more statements in this post are incorrect. Please do your own due diligence.”

But no. Twitter, etc. have decided to take a hard, fascist approach instead - silence anyone who disagrees with the party line.

Frustrating and idiotic, the suppression of information, regardless of what the clueless YouTube boobs think, is a tell. What does it tell? That they support the use of this disease to effect an authoritarian domination of the government, economy, and society of the United States.

I am not suppressing the dubious blanket statements regarding the safety and efficacy of the various available vaccines. So, why do they care that I might think otherwise?

Because the supporters of a One Party State are using the draconian restrictions and strange vaccine fascism to force Americans to live literally as caged animals, at the pleasure of the corrupt leftist elite. Effective free speech is a threat to that plan, and so censorship is their reflexive reaction.

If the Democrats have their way, spreading “Misinformation” and “Disinformation”, according to their constantly changing definitions, will become crimes, much worse than the vandalism, arson, assault and murder their allies in the BLM and ANTIFA have and continue to perpetrate. This is my definition of tyranny, and the Democrats are all in about this, and cannot walk back this evil. The die is cast.

His reporting doesn’t fit the official narrative, and if the facts contradict the narrative, the facts lie.

If you still have a Twitter account you are responsible for Twitter being able to black list people over unproven conjecture. Both sides of the covid argument are unproven.

“Think of it – at best – as a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy and terrible side effect profile that must be dosed IN ADVANCE OF ILLNESS.”

It’s getting so we can tell who is parroting which influencer by what they repeat in the chat.

Besides Berenson being wrong about vaccines, (just as he was wrong in so many of the stories he wrote for NYT and the Hill) to respond to his talking point above, monoclonals and folk remedies like ivermectin, hcq or vit c, and zinc, are also used primarily in advance of illness and have a markedly narrow efficacy.

Vit c can’t prevent covid alone, zinc can’t either. HCQ keeps getting tossed from studies in favor of alternates.

Monoclonals are very temporary, like fix-a-flat, and can have some pretty hairy side effects. And if the number of calls to poison control centers and ER visits for ivermectin horse paste overdose are any indication, so does ivermectin, which, at best guestimate is only about 70^ effective on wild virus and nobody knows on Delta virus.

So Berenson had a pretty weak argument at best, or is intentionally deceptive to get monitized views at worst.

Looks like Wikipedia is taking guidance from Twitter. I just check Berenson's page on Wikipedia and it says "Alex Berenson is an American writer and a proponent of COVID-19 misinformation."

Being banned from Twitter means you are telling the truth.

Have you noticed how strikingly similar both the mindsets and actions are between the suicide bombers at Kabul’s airport, and the anti-mask and anti-vax people here?
They both blow themselves up, inflict harm on those around them, and are convinced they are fighting for freedom.
