The End Of History, The End Of Free Speech On The Internet, The CIA, Stanford, NewsGuard, & A Lil' Guy Named Francis Fukuyama
Not sure why the colors are washed out on this one. Thx & credit to @stclairashley for Matrix-style find-the-nearest-telephone-booth IT problem-solving --- even faster than @Support lol.
Anyway, here are receipts. Here's our boy in question, Mr. End Of History himself:
Francis Fukayama has one of the most golden intelligence world CVs on earth:
-CIA heart of State Dept (Policy Planning Staff)
-Board of Trustees of RAND Corporation
-Fellow at Carnegie, led by new CIA chief Bill Burns
-Johns Hopkins, site of Event 201
-Stanford Censorship Squad
It was Fukuyama and his Stanford Censorship Squad plotters who convinced NewsGuard's CEO to bill its censorship technology as mere humble "Middleware" to be integrated into all tech platforms on the Internet to kill opposition political speech:

Basically, after Brexit & the 2016 Trump election, the CIA was pissed at its own complacency from buying Fukuyama’s “end of history” pitch, so Fukuyama set out to please his overlords w/ new “democracy” reasons to censor the Internet & win elections for globalism shills again.
Everywhere Fukuyama went — books, panels, think tank fellowships, university centers, even random book forwards for other authors — Fukuyama was relentless: THE PEOPLE are the biggest threat to democracy, especially when they are free to speak.
“A Loaded Weapon” Fukuyama called free speech on the Internet after Brexit, the Trump election, the Bolsonaro election & the Modi election.
Giving the people free speech at the speed of the Internet is like democracy shooting itself in the head, he argued.
Of course, Fukuyama & his CIA buddies, his State Dept mentors, his RAND Corporation Trustee pals, his Carnegie fellows & his Stanford Censor Squad amigos all have a very different definition of "democracy," as you know by now:
NewsGuard's CEO, in a Politico op-ed calling on Congress to mandate NewsGuard's censorship technology on private platforms, cited Francis Fukuyama's Stanford CIA censorship pals' "work" on rigging algorithms to stop traffic to alternative views on Covid

RAND Corporation, w/ Francis Fukuyama on its Board of Trustees, in parallel w/ Fukuyama's censorship work begat its own initiatives with the same objectives: pumping up NewsGuard-style "Credibility Scores" & "Disinfo Tracking" tools to kill alt news
See more in this thread on RAND Corporation's censorship tilt w/ Francis Fukuyama at the helm of its Board of Trustees:
Fukuyama's prolific censorship work & advocacy w/ his Stanford CIA crew spawned more from fellow censorship heavyweights.
Harvard's Joan Donovan, in CIA cut-out National Endowment for Democracy's journal, built on Fukuyama "Quarantining Misinformation"
