So. You just found out that the US Government (Democrat Party) and Big Tech are in cahoots with each other.

And you want to know more. I can help you out.

I've talked about this before. Old Crab Man has rambled.

Here for example. Did you know? Twitter delayed site maintenance at the behest of Hillary Clinton's State Department. Reason was to allow the stoking of protests in Iran.

Also Twitter worked with the Obama White House to pull off a PR stunt involving the Russian President sending his first tweet.

Just jog your almonds and ponder the implications.

May 2018. "Facebook Enlists Eric Holder’s Law Firm to ‘Advise’ on Anti-Conservative Bias" (Eric Holder was Obama's former attorney general. and very left-wing). breitbart.com/tech/2018/05/0…

" former Obama staffer who oversaw the former president’s data operations during the 2012 elections, Facebook was alarmed by the amount of data they had access to, but made a special exception for the Obama campaign because they were “on their side.”" breitbart.com/tech/2018/03/2…

Really the nitty gritty of Big Tech and the Democrat Establishment working in lockstep is the lobbying. breitbart.com/politics/2019/…

I don't know how it works in practice, but if Mark Zuckerberg is STILL open to cozying with CHINA, then the United States working with Facebook AS WELL to censor folks.... freaks me out, fam. theguardian.com/world/2016/mar…

ANYWAY according to WIRED, Mark Zuckerberg met with BARACK OBAMA about quashing "misinformation."

And this was in the aftermath of the 2016 election. archive.is/prStR#selectio…

oh yeah this one is kinda important

"Facebook Has Dozens of Ex-Obama and Ex-Hillary Staffers in Senior Positions" breitbart.com/tech/2018/04/1…

Another rabbit hole within the rabbit hole.

"Zuckerberg hires former Clinton pollster Joel Benenson" politico.com/story/2017/08/…

I mean if you want the more obvious "easy street" approach to an answer?

Sheryl Sandberg. Mark Zuckerberg's "number two" in terms of Facebook leadership.

Sandberg is a BIG OL' Hillary Clinton supporter.

^^ Hillary Clinton is important because 2016 election.

Facebook staff thought Donald Trump winning was a MISTAKE and they all had this moment of reflection about their "roles" in Trump's victory.

Helps to explain what's going on today! quite a bit. archive.is/P40PZ

Political donations and money flows are how you read the room when it comes to Big Tech's relationship with the Democrat Establishment in Washington DC. breitbart.com/local/2016/09/…

"cool now do late 2019 and 2020"

... there's several hundred pages of notes, separately, just about that.

Think of this situation like a graph. in the late 2000s, and first half of 2010s, there's less examples of politicization of Big Tech.

By 2019 and 2020 it gets more regular.

It's much cleaner this way, for now.

You people are still here? Ok

September 2019: "Hillary Clinton Dings Facebook For Allowing Trump To Publish ‘Outright Lies’ And ‘Propaganda’" archive.is/PEKXt

I guess for this next portion I can remind you all about how the Democrat Party pressured Facebook in the first place.

Because that happened. archive.is/LpUeL archive.is/Zg1Zf

Democrats grilled Facebook over other issues as well.

Like "climate disinformation." archive.is/D8lUc

So yeah everything is on the table, here. Any assertion otherwise is B.S.

and yes. When i say everything is on the table? I mean everything. archive.is/GFelq

To be clear, this was a can kicked down the road to get to where we are.

Big Tech had influencers in their pocket ready to go whenever the issue of political bias came up. These influencers quashed it. And caused this delay delay delay that led to today. thenationalpulse.com/culture/exclus…

March 2020. A watershed moment where the joining of "STATE" (by that I mean US Government) began it's convergence with Big Tech platforms.

"Facebook, Reddit, Google, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Twitter and YouTube issue joint statement on misinformation" techcrunch.com/2020/03/16/fac…

I'm reminded of when in November 2018 Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted his "blueprint" of censorship.

This is where the soft censorship scheme was born. facebook.com/notes/75144900…

"Jessica Hertz, a former Associate General Counsel for regulatory matters at Facebook, has joined the transition team of Democratic Presidential campaign Joe Biden." thenationalpulse.com/politics/biden…

Facebook Censors Hunter Biden Exposé
thenationalpulse.com/breaking/faceb…

"Stone – who has worked for four separate Democratic Party individuals or organizations over his career – admits Facebook is interfering in the U.S. election by limiting the distribution of the story."

"Facebook expert in charge of election integrity formerly worked as policy adviser to Joe Biden on Ukraine" washingtonexaminer.com/news/facebook-…

"Facebook’s Election Fact Checker Honored Biden In 2017, Employees Donated EXCLUSIVELY To Democrats In 2020" thenationalpulse.com/news/facebook-…

Do you understand yet how massively entrenched the Democrat establishment is?

I mean I could point out the connections between Facebook and China entities too but I don't want to scare you innocent, curious people too too much. thenationalpulse.com/breaking/fb-ov…

Facebook decides what's misinformation based on what groups they've funded and what's the most favorable outcome to them, btw. thenationalpulse.com/exclusive/face…

I'm going to add this Drew Holden thread about the Democrat establishment being guilty of pushing misinformation.

Because I can.

Basically the internet was free until Donald Trump won the 2016 election.

After that they decided to CENSOR social media to infinity and beyond. breitbart.com/tech/2020/09/2…

That's seriously as basic as I can describe it.

The concerns regarding "interference"?

YEAH that's a two way street. Foreign interference can happen internally within social media companies as well, it didn't just happen on the website frontend themselves. breitbart.com/tech/2020/10/2…

Facebook doesn't want to remind you how SLOPPY they were in their labeling of former President Trump's posts.

They want you to forget that part. What's important to them? Is just that it happened at all. Regardless of the merit for the soft censorship. breitbart.com/tech/2020/11/1…

ANOTHER important piece of the puzzle.

REMINDER that Facebook COLLABORATES with the other Big Tech platforms on censorship topics.

Proof being right in front of your faces here.

And Facebook can determine what you see in yours newsfeeds based on quality score breitbart.com/tech/2020/11/2…
