1/ If you were wondering what the legacy media would plan for its October surprise, wonder no longer: it's here. Today, I received the following text from a reporter at @NYTimes:
2/ What, precisely, is NYT doing? It's perfectly obvious: using research from Media Matters, a radical Left-wing organization whose sole purpose is destroying conservative media (see below), in order to pressure YouTube to demonetize and penalize any and all conservatives ONE WEEK FROM THE ELECTION.
3/ That's the entire game here. Run an article in America's "most trusted newspaper" that declares pretty much every major conservative a purveyor of "misinformation" on YouTube, thus strong-arming YouTube into taking action against conservatives.
4/ This isn't about "election misinformation." Obviously. As pretty much everyone knows, I have always acknowledged that Joe Biden won the 2020 election. And if it is "election misinformation" to point out the "rigging" of the voting rules for election 2020, resulting in massive mail-in voting and ballot harvesting, then the NYT might want to talk to...the NYT and CBS News, for starters.
5/ And, by the way, even if someone *does* think Joe Biden didn’t win the election, that is still protected speech under the First Amendment
6/ But that's the point: you don't have to purvey "misinformation" to be the target. You just have to support Trump.
7/ This is totally scandalous. In 2020, the legacy media shut down dissemination of the Hunter Biden laptop story and laundered the claim that it was all Russian disinformation, all to get Joe Biden elected.
8/ In 2024, they're even more brazen: they're openly trying to intimidate YouTube, one of the most dominant news platforms in America, into shutting down anyone who isn't pro-Kamala.
9/ Again, understand the mission from these supposed guardians of free speech and American liberty: silence the opposition the WEEK BEFORE THE 2024 ELECTION.
10/ They can't get away with it, and they won't. If ever you doubted that The New York Times is part of the Democrat-Media Human Centipede (see below), doubt no longer.
11/ So, The New York Times wants comment? Here's my comment: kindly, go f*ck yourself.
