If only there had been a conservative news organization that, five years ago, established a dedicated team of reporters to cover Silicon Valley's growing attacks on free speech.

(breitbart.com/tech/)
If only there had been whistleblowers, and leaks, and smoking guns proving that the leaders of Silicon Valley were determined to stop the President and his supporters from effectively using the internet to communicate with voters.

If only there had been whistleblowers, and leaks, and smoking guns proving that the leading big tech companies didn't care about interfering in democratic politics.

If only the whistleblowers told us that Trump was always the target.

If only there was a whole book about this!

The biggest "if only."

If only America's institutions, bureaucrats, and elected reps were interested in defending the public, and defending democracy from corporate abuses of power.

If only they weren't in league with them.

If only they weren't all part of the same club.

It's not like they put this all down in writing or anything.

I've seen a lot of media-democrat outrage spirals so I know how they go... thread:
Day 1: Media gaslights conservatives into engaging with their concerns in good faith. Dead Syrian refugees, George Floyd, etc. Anyone who offers a contrary opinion is immediately destroyed. The smart conservatives stay silent. Cowardly ones grovel.
Day 2: Either more facts emerge, or the media-dems overreach, revealing the horrifying breadth of its agenda, the depth of their plans to control the population, eliminate rights and liberties, and otherwise reshape society. Dissent starts to emerge.

Journalists really are to blame for this.

The YouTube ad boycott, the Facebook ad boycott - that was all them.

The transformation of tech companies into weapons of the ruling elite would not have happened without constant pressure from the media.
There were always people inside the tech giants who wanted censorship. But numbers swelled because of agitation from the media, and media-inspired ad boycotts immeasurably strengthened their hand. More than Democrats, more than the tech companies themselves, the media did this.
Panics over "fake news" and "misinformation" didn't start inside the tech companies. They started in the media, were picked up by the most radical employees inside the companies, who went on to craft the policies that would placate the media -- until the next panic.

September 2020:
My book exposes a four-year plot to remove the President of the United States and his movement from the internet.

January 2021:
Facebook, Twitch, Snapchat, indefinitely ban the President of the United States.

We all knew it was coming.
Because of this rabid desire to censor the president, everyone's online freedom was destroyed in the process.

And you are not going to get it back, because everyone in power, including elected Republicans, a) wanted it to happen and b) want it to escalate.
How many Republicans are speaking out against today's censorship?

The DOJ filed a landmark antitrust case against Google today.

No tech company has been caught red-handed trying to interfere in American elections than Google.

Let's recap...THREAD:
ITEM 1.

Video leaked to Breitbart shows Google execs calling Trump's election "offensive", an exec threatening to make populism a "blip."

Use of their anti-extremism search manipulation tool, "Jigsaw," is discussed in the context of the Trump movement.

ITEM 2.

"The Good Censor"

A smoking gun document -- Google's own researchers admit the internet has been captured by a handful of corporations (including them) that are now censoring news and political speech.

UPDATE:

After we published this article, a Facebook spokeswoman reached out and said all four pages are being taken down. Soz, Assata Shakur fans!
By banning defenders of Kyle Rittenhouse, who has not been convicted of any crime, Facebook must now ban any page or profile celebrating convicted murderers or terrorists.

You know, like all those leftists from the 1970s.
I'm not saying you should do this, but you can now track down every support page for leftist terrorists or black nationalist cop-killers, report them to Facebook, and get them banned, deplatforming 1000s of leftists in the process just like they've done to you for four years.
