Bokhari: Big Tech’s Blueprint to Stop a Red Wave in 2022
https://www.breitbart.com ^ | 27 Jul 2022 | ALLUM BOKHARI

Republicans think a “red wave” is inevitable in November. But the Democrats still have one big advantage: the ever-tightening grip of Big Tech censorship, which will be used to prevent undecided voters from encountering even the most mainstream conservative news in the runup to the next election. Republicans will have a strong message — but what if voters are prevented from hearing it?

In the runup to the 2020 U.S. presidential election, Google completely suppressed Breitbart News from its search results. Compared to 2016, Breibart News went into the 2020 election with a 99.7 percent reduction in visibility for its links on Google search. The censorship was so severe, no-name blogs with plagiarized headlines and content would appear in search results before the original Breitbart News articles. On searches for the term “Joe Biden,” Google cut visibility on Breitbart News links to zero.

Then, a few weeks before the election, Big Tech teamed up to suppress one of the biggest stories of the cycle: the Hunter Biden laptop story. A post-election poll found that 17 percent of Biden voters would have reconsidered their decision had they been aware of the laptop story alone, not counting the hundreds of Breitbart News stories voters didn’t have access to due to Google censorship.

Biden’s margin of victory in three swing states was less than a percentage point, making tech censorship a pivotal factor in the outcome. There is no law preventing Silicon Valley from not only repeating this plan in 2022, but scaling it up to a massive level – and that’s exactly what they are doing. The groundwork is already being prepared, in a number of ways:

Good article. Thanks to tech censorship, the average American has no idea about the transgender filth in classrooms, Hunter Biden’s laptop, open border drug smugglers, Democrat laws resulting in crime waves in our cities, and the willful destruction of crisis pregnancy centers. This is why, despite the fact that Joe has low ratings, the Dems are holding their own against Republicans in the Congressional polls.

I don’t think it will matter. The country is so effed up now, under the Dems, that people will still vote GOP.

In 1980 Americans would know what to do with a political party in power who has brought such ruin upon their lives.

I think they still do today and, but for the corrupt corporate/deep state death grip on the system, certainly would.

Big tech censorship will do nothing to put knew back in He pockets of citizens who are hurting because of the asinine e antiamerican policies of the Biden administration. Folks see the lain when they shop, buy gas, can’t buy things they once could because of covid restrictions diminishing companies and employees, causing shortages etc.

We will see what happens, but folks are hurting, and big tech censorship can’t cover that up

Unless Google can stop people from going to the gas pump or the grocery store, they’re not going to be able to contain the bad news.

They actually have fewer reasons to worry than they think. They are in good shape, and are on track to keep the Senate and several Governorships. They will lose the House only by a small margin. It will not be an Obama-era wipeout.

i read somewhere that most elections are determined at the gas pump. It seems pretty obvious to me that the democrats are going to lose biggly if that is the way it works. Big tech can’t do much about the reality that people face every time they need to fill up. A reality that did not exist under Trump.

Republicans expect a red wave, but the forces arrayed against them are formidable. Pray that God helps to overcome these obstacles.

- Big Tech censorship and cyber warfare against Republican candidates who do not follow their dogma.

- Democrats cheating on a massive scale.

- "Republican" office holders who collude with the democrats to help the democrats.

- Big media opinion shaping, lying, omissions, 24/7 propaganda against republicans.

- Unelected activist judges, bureaucrats, agencies who help the democrats by moving the election goal posts, ignoring or approving illegal behavior, changing the rules at the last minute against what the law allows.

This is a secondary issue. It doesn’t matter how overwhelming the number of votes cast for Republicans, as long as the mechanisms for manufacturing and overcounting votes exist; and Republicans have generally been too intimidated by the bad (corrupt) press to push for anything to be done to eliminate those mechanisms. Worst of all, SCOTUS effectively signed off on corrupt voting practices imposed at the state level by refusing to hear the Texas lawsuit.

All this talk of a red wave is whistling past the graveyard.

“They will lose the House only by a small margin”

hell I’m not even confident of that to be honest.

I’ll believe it when I see it.

I suspect steal is more widespread than most think.....and even then you’ll have conservatives saying “well we just lost”.

SMH

GOTCHA!!

Quit squirming. You are only harming yourselves.

Resistance if futile. You are surrounded.
