The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was the ‘man behind the curtain’ that directed Facebook’s censorship campaigns against people ‘questioning the science,’ while surreptitiously amplifying government propaganda regarding its Covid pandemic policies.

Such are the new revelations from a lawyer who is suing the Food and Drug Administration for hiding its Pfizer clinical trials data from the public: Attorney Aaron Siri.

Facebook needs to lose it's Section 230 liability protection because they're clearly a content provider and not simply a content carrier.

Facebook also needs to be fined and its executives charged for every penny of illegal political contributions-in-kind.

So, far from being a private entity, Facebook is an agent of the government. If that is the case, their decisions about banning folks are not a private matter, but a public issue.

Goebbels had radio and print to work with, but that's it

he could only dream about spreading propaganda with technologies like broadcast TV, internet sites, e-mails, social media, phone alerts, etc.

Here we see proof of Facebook working as a direct political operative for the CDC.

Imagine that. "The science is settled" required censorship and propaganda as strategic elements in the "rollout" of experimental mRNA injections still shielded from product liability because....

Emergency!

I beg to differ. He had the muscle to back it all up along with a compliant population more than willing to go along.

Isn't that what we have now?

Didn't see a whole lot of people revolting over losses-of-freedom like lockdowns, masks, passports, etc. ...

Actually, this brings up a whole different angle besides Section 230. If Facebook is acting as an agent of the Federal government, then they could be bound by the 1st Amendment, which would restrain them exercising nearly any speech control on their platform entirely.
