Said it once, and I'll say it again: #StreisandEffect trending on Twitter is the highlight of this election season.

And if people start getting suspended for sharing the information relevant to this story I will be totally unsurprised.

In general, social media censorship has been ramped up for weeks, especially noticeable during the #Assange extradition hearing.

First the corporate hack-media refused to cover the #Assange story, which would have been their best legitimate shot of hitting Trump effectively for jailing a legit journalist. The same journalist that the legacy media idiocracy blamed for "installing" #Trump to begin with.

Then you see independent journalists like @VanessaBeeley attacked - journalists who also report skeptically on the role of the US and UK in the middle east. The #Assange precedent already in action, presumably.

Now #Twitter and #Facebook are censoring the NYPost's story to a never-before-seen-degree. Why? I imagine, to protect themselves from being hauled in front of Congress for InstallingTrumpforPutin2.0™ - should #Trump win.

This is where we are: social media platforms heavily censoring to cover their backsides from a rabid plutocracy that can't stand to face its own literal & figurative demons. Prosecution of journalists for reporting on IC lies and war crimes. List. Goes. On.
