Ive been following a few stories lately and it seems that everything we all feared as free speech advocates has come true.
The left has taken control of our ability to disseminate information freely.
This happened gradually, one step at a time, it slowly creeped up on us in order to not alarm us greatly, but now its finally here.
Silicon valley, big tech companies are openly leftist and participate in left wing activism. That includes silencing right wing voices.
I wrote a post a few weeks back with undercover work by a Veritas where it shows Facebook moderators openly talking about how they are directly targeting any content related to Trump, conservatives and republicans.
But that was undercover journalism at the time. Now, they feel so confident that they even go out and openly say it:
Free speech is bad.
Heres a link to a New York Times article where the author does her absolute best to attack freedom of speech. Does seems she wants to have someone "regulate" speech on the internet. Preferably someone of her political beliefs.
The article is titled:
The Problem Of Free Speech In The Age Of Disinformation. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/13/magazine/free-speech.html
How have we ended up in this bizarro world? Seriously. You have left wing journalists calling for censorship. Editors of major mainstream journals going out their way, contacting social media companies to censor their ideological opponents.
Look at this absolute horseshit #Youtube posted on their blog. https://blog.youtube/news-and-events/harmful-conspiracy-theories-youtube
Quote:
Managing misinformation and harmful conspiracy theories is challenging because the content is always shifting and evolving. To address this kind of content effectively, it’s critical that our teams continually review and update our policies and systems to reflect the frequent changes. Today, we are taking another step in our efforts to curb hate and harassment by removing more conspiracy theory content used to justify real-world violence.
Is misinformation what you say it is? Is a harmful conspiracy theory what you say it is?
This written here can apply to anything. "Justify real world violence?"
ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING CAN ACT AS MOTIVATION FOR VIOLENT ACTION!
There is a difference between calling for violence against someone and stating what you believe in.
Calling for violence is already covered by law.
Has everyone forgotten this quote!?:
"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"
Lets move to Twitter a bit.
There was a story that came out few days ago about leaked photos and emails from Joe Bidens scumbag son Hunter Biden. Emails about him being payed hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly just to maintain a connection between the Ukrainian energy company to his VP father at the time. You have photos of him smoking a crack pipe, theres a sex tape. Stuff like that.
What Twitter did after the article from new york post was released was ban sharing of the post, it locked the New York Post twitter account and said that they will not unlock it unless they delete all the posts related to Hunter Biden. They even changed policies in wake of this to justify the ban. Facebook also followed and demoted the post attempting to hide it pending the leftist "fact checkers" to come in.
This is beyond absurd and dangerous...
They are calling Trump a danger to democracy. They are calling him a tyrant while it is the left that is acting tyrannically.
Never has there been a time where free speech platforms like Threespeak, HIVE have been as needed as they are now.
