🇬🇧 The Transatlantic Censorship Blob 🇺🇸

Britain's prime minister, Keir Starmer is frantically trying to cozy up to the incoming Trump administration.

One little problem: a nonprofit founded by Starmer's top aide wants to censor Americans and "kill Musk's Twitter."Image CCDH was founded in 2018 by Morgan McSweeney, currently chief of staff to UK prime minister Keir Starmer.

He's also embroiled in a foreign interference controversy after it emerged that the UK Labour party paid for him to fly to the DNC and meet with Harris.

Would be less of a big deal if 100 Labour party activists hadn't campaigned for Kamala in the swing states...Image

These alternative networks create a "populist expertise" offering "interpretations of the world that differ from mainstream sources." Image

The rot at Google has been apparent for a while.

An anon Google employee, speaking to me in 2017:

“the diversity gospel has been woven into nearly everything the company does.”
Image “Pro-censorship voices have the management’s ear. The anti-censorship people are afraid of retaliation.”

“Our leadership (Sundar in particular) is weak, so he capitulates to the meanest bullies on the block.” Image

"Trusted Messengers"

A head of 2024, the censorship industry is adopting a more targeted approach, focused on key demographics.

Central to their plans is the cultivation of "trusted messengers" who can overcome so-called disinformation spreading in particular communities.
foundationforfreedomonline.com/grassroots-cen… "Trusted Messenger" is a marketing term, describing a person or institution with public trust. It's popular among NGOs and government agencies trying to win people over to their agenda.

During COVID, the government sought out "trusted messengers" to overcome vaccine skepticism. Image

'Civic Listening': Political Informants, Rebranded

Paranoid that someone is spying on your based groupchats? You should be..

Government-funded online censors are cultivating a network of informants to monitor "disinformation" on private messaging apps🧵
foundationforfreedomonline.com/civic-listenin… Every modern regime that has tried to police the opinions of its citizens has ended up fostering networks of informants, aka snitches.

At its height, the GDR's Stasi had 1 informer for every 50 citizens.

But that's just a German thing, right? It couldn't happen here...Image

"Net Zero" is coming to the video games industry. But what is Net Zero and why should you care?

The subheading of this CNET article carries the core concept.

"What will games have to give up?"

Spreading into every industry, Net Zero makes the same demand.

Sacrifice.
🧵👇 Image "Net Zero" is everywhere, but it always makes the same demand: lower your standards!

Lower-quality protein: bugs instead of steak.

Lower-quality stoves: electric instead of gas.

And now, lower-quality video games.

Your guide to virtue-signaling at #EURO2020

Of the remaining teams, the worst are England and Belgium. Switzerland are also bad.

Wales, like the rest of the British teams, were also big on kneeling. They were knocked out today👌
thesun.co.uk/sport/15221988… Denmark, which knocked out Wales (4-0 lmao) seem ambivalent on kneeling. They don't care much either way.

Other remaining teams in this category: Italy (some players kneeled, some haven't) France (initially planned to kneel, but noticed the fan feedback), Germany. #EURO2020

"Global elites" is a misunderstood term. They aren't primarily the politicians. They're the NGOs, corporations, media conglomerates, academic institutions, pressure groups and bureaucrats that shape the views and policies of politicians. They aren't always successful. Politicians range from those who are 100% agents of that ecosystem (Buttigieg, Clinton, Blair) and those who are 100% independent of them (Orban, Salvini, Bolso).

But there are also plenty of politicians who are in between those two extremes. Boris Johnson is one example.

The irony: Europe, without a First Amendment, may end up with more internet freedom than the US.

In Europe, governments decide definition of hate speech, extremism, etc. They are bound by legislative processes.

In the US, Silicon Valley decides. And it is not bound by anything. Called it.

Even foreign politicians who are the complete opposite of Trump in terms of style/policy aren’t happy to see Silicon Valley silencing a world leader.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
