[SEE ALL THE TWEET LINKS AT SITE....TOO MANY TO POST..............]
The Twitter files on the government's coordination with Twitter to silence experts and control the narrative around Covid just dropped and I just have to say, the "conspiracy theorists" are batting 1000.
It's not surprising that these things were happening.
Anyone who was paying attention KNEW that the government was pressuring Twitter to censor inconvenient facts if they contradicted the official state narrative.
David Zweig – a journalist who has written for The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, New York Magazine, The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Wired – documents the ways in which Twitter gave up its responsibility to free speech and caved to government pressure and used improper methods to censor legitimate and true speech.
Check it out:
It wasn't unique to the Biden administration to work with social media to control the public narrative, the state agencies under the Trump administration did the same thing.
The Trump administration worked to calm people who were panic buying and making runs on grocery stores. And this also shows that the government, to no one's surprise, was not just working with Twitter.
Then we have the Biden admin come in to really push the vaccines and squelch anyone who spoke out against the Fauci ouchie, and target #1 was Alex Berenson.
We've known for a few months that Twitter unfairly targeted Berenson and that the government was in on it. This just reveals that, in order to push the vax, the government was aiming specifically at him.
The report continues:
The Biden administration was so censorious that they thought Twitter, which was busy nuking accounts for sharing CDC data, wasn't doing ENOUGH to censor tweets.
TWITTER was more pro-free speech than the BIDEN ADMINISTRATION.
Let that sink in.
Of course, this doesn't mean Twitter was defending speech.
They reviewed and then suspended a Harvard medical expert, not because he was wrong, but because he disagreed with the CDC's jab recommendation.
In the same way MANY doctors and experts worldwide disagreed with indiscriminate vaccinations.
And this sort of thing happened over and over and over again.
The tweet was locked for citing CDC data to debunk a FALSE tweet that Twitter left up.
It wasn't about stopping misinformation.
It was about pushing an agenda.
They suspended this account from Twitter because they said something that was simply true.
But they have to control the narrative.
The mind rot on display here, from Twitter and the government, is beyond comprehension.
Lastly, check out how Twitter handled decisions relating to President Trump.
These folks at Twitter had been watching too much CNN, I guess.
I remember the mainstream media blowup when Trump, rightly, told people not to be dominated by Covid.
This was seen by some on the wacky Left as a dangerous message and the people in charge of Twitter bought into that same nonsense.
At the end of the thread, Zweig asks all the right questions:
What might have been if Twitter, and other social media companies, had allowed free speech to happen and didn't simply comply with the government's agenda-driven message?
Unfortunately, we'll never know.
The real question for the future is this: How do we stop it from happening again?
The only justice will be vigilante justice.
Good.
How many shares of Pampers Depends does Elon Musk have. The dividends must be massive, especially in liberal/lefty neighborhoods.
He let fauci give us mail in ballots, lockdowns, travel restrictions and gave big pharma the power arp speed to how many taxpayer dollars, endless covid checks to stay home. He also did a bumpstock ban and Syrian immigrants.
More freedom lost forever under him than any prez in my lifetime.
And never once, with all the new data has he apologized for recklessly handing over permanent power to dems.
He is either, complicit or incompetent.
To give him cover for these things is not rational.
Men stand up, admit wrongs and stay away from them as far as humanly possible.
There is no need to make ergot resistant corn as ergot does not grow on corn.
“It wasn’t about stopping misinformation.
It was about pushing an agenda.”
Arbitrarily censoring medical info, or widely endorsing medicine that’s in the experimental stage seems irresponsible at best. When that censoring results in millions of deaths it could be easily mistaken for manslaughter.
100% agree
Because they didn’t even fit the CDCs own definition of a vaccine until the CDC rewrote the definition and redefined it to include thse genetic engineering injections.
So calling it a Vaccine is criminal fraud and misrepresentation from the get go.
that is outrageous. if she’s open to discussing the nutrient route to get her back on track I’ll gladly talk with her. There are a number of supplements and minerals that will combat all the side effects she’s experiencing.
Yeah, thanks
Yup! We have an abundance, actually more like a surplus of, dumbassery across the fruited plains, over the river and through the woods. 😵
To hear stories like this makes me want to see more Melvin’s from Office Space...
I just wanted my stapler. Now the place is on fire.
And nothing. It’s so gross.
But it goes back to a meme that came out when all
This crap was going on.
It was a pic of folks at a Nazi rally from the 40s. Caption was: no we know who would have complied
Sad folks can’t think for themselves and are still driving around in their cars, with a mask on, alone.
Trump loved the swamp when he thought it could help his election. The jabs were/are unneeded. But, due to false fears induced by his admin, the idea of them was popular. He is a populist, not a Freedom fighter.
I still think Trump has time to repent his Covid sins. It is sad he hasn't to this point.
Gov Ron is doing the right thing, digging into the potential criminal aspects of Trump's pals in BigPharma. They don't get their hallowed immunity if criminal activity is proved.
Why do you think they aren’t vaccines?
When you havevto change the definition of something to make it something it isn’t it.
Ping, AMEN! They had to change the definition of vaccine and thus being in the Sun or taking Vitamin A or C or D is now a vaccine according to their definition.
Correct. "Government" is never held accountable. Not through juridical processes, that is. Think Ceaușescu. Think Mussolini at the Milan Esso station. It's only ever that, or nothing.
That there are grownups that don't appreciate that reality continues to surprise me.
Which is, fundamentally, part of the real problem - the name associated with them. They’re not vaccines. Whatever they are, they’re nothing like traditional vaccines. They don’t stop transmission. They don’t last very long. They’re only 30% effective. They’re responsible for harming people and the younger you are the less benefit to risk ratio you have.
