I find it very helpful to have info summarized so; also good if you're having information overload.

"Censorship & self-censorship act together in this society to ensure that independent thinking & creativity cannot exist without bowing to authority." 👀

🧵Back in 2014, Chinese dissident @aiww wrote a powerful essay, "On Self-#Censorship" exploring life under the #CCP. (1/22)
"Killing the chicken to scare the monkey."

Not 100% clear yet what this means? I wasn't either. I had forgotten this saying & essay until recently when I landed in a space with @ooana & @shelley_curious, where I was issued a challenge: "explain this Chinese saying." (2/22)
In the essay, Ai Weiwei *beautifully* explains how #censorship & self-censorship work together to enforce conformity & the will of the state. Here he was talking about #communist #China, but I'm sure you'll find the explanation familiar, especially post-#TwitterFiles👇 (3/22)

As I'm prepping for this evenings 8pm first ever LIVE @KashsCorner, I'm as usual doing so by looking at @themarketswork's and @HansMahncke's exceptional work at @EpochTVus's "Truth Over News." If you don't follow their work here, DO IT RIGHT AWAY. 🧵[1/n]
I was a relative newcomer to the ins & outs of #Spygate when we started @AmThoughtLeader in 2019. I had the incredible privilege to have the whole picture explained to me directly by @themarketswork, who took me under his wing, patiently explaining🧵[2/n]
...all sorts of intricacies of what @elonmusk recently dubbed "Confusing-gate." @themarketswork's attention to detail, rock solid certainty on items that deserved such designation, while also making clear that other elements were educated guesses, 🧵[3/n] theepochtimes.com/jeff-carlson-o…

Unanimous SCOTUS: “The line between a forum for private expression and the government’s own speech is important, but not always clear… For years, Boston has allowed private groups to request use of the flagpole to raise flags of their choosing…" 🧵[1/n]
theepochtimes.com/bostons-refusa…
"As part of this program, Boston approved hundreds of requests to raise dozens of different flags. The city did not deny a single request to raise a flag until, in 2017, Harold Shurtleff, the director of a group called Camp Constitution, asked to fly a Christian flag…" [2/n]
"Boston refused." The Supreme Court concluded that “on balance, Boston did not make the raising & flying of private groups’ flags a form of government speech. That means, in turn, that Boston’s refusal to let Shurtleff and Camp Constitution raise their flag…" [3/n]

Notable: Members of the UK's Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Behaviour express regret about ‘unethical’ methods; Use of fear to control behaviour in #COVID19 crisis was ‘totalitarian’, they admit. 🧵[1/n]
archive.fo/7azQ8
"SPI-B [Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Behaviour] warned in March last year that ministers needed to increase “the perceived level of personal threat” from #COVID19 because “a substantial number of people still do not feel sufficiently personally threatened”." [2/n]
"Gavin Morgan, a psychologist on the team, said: “Clearly, using fear as a means of control is not ethical. Using fear smacks of totalitarianism. It’s not an ethical stance for any modern government. …all this has given me a more pessimistic view of people.”" [3/n]

"Dimon’s statements disavowing responsibility show that #WallStreet firms will continue to funnel US money into Chinese companies regardless of the risks, collecting their fees with glee…"

Thread [Paragraphs worth pasting in full, 1/3] 🔥 by @joshrogin.
washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/…
[2/3] "Gensler’s response, in which he promised to push for more disclosure from Chinese companies, shows that the #SEC still doesn’t understand that #XiJinping has no intention of allowing that to happen.

The #CCP’s recent actions show clearly that the risks of investing…"
[3/3] "…in Chinese companies that have no real accountability & transparency are growing quickly—and steps to protect US capital markets must be hastened… #WallStreet firms & regulators who ignore this now are failing in their responsibility to protect the American people."
