Technocrats at Google have silenced YouTube users and content providers after it surrendered to an avalanche of Leftist demands for the “frees speech” platform to enforce “right-think” and “right-speak” about the recent U.S election.
In early November the NBC reported that YouTube was holding firm, and staring down ‘growing criticism’ for allowing boisterous disagreement and analysis.
According to NBC, ‘YouTube wanted to give users room for “discussion of election results,” even when that discussion is based on debunked information.’
Fast forward to December and YouTube has given in to the pressure, now determining to censure any thought or spoken word that challenges the election result, the pure farce that is the office of “President-elect,” and election fraud.
The New York Times, not without smug adulation for the ‘reversal’ noted that YouTube has decided to backflip on its steadfast decision because it wanted to stamp out ‘misleading information’ and ‘false claims.’
YouTube defended both its decision to hold out against criticism for so long, and for its capitulation, saying, in essence, “we’ve let people have had their say. Since a large portion of states of ‘certified their results,’ fraud or no fraud, it’s now time to move on, surrender, and acknowledge Joe Biden’s, legit or not, ascendency to the throne.” (paraphrased from the NYT)
The anti-freedom of speech about-face is a complete 180 from YouTube’s previous policy which allowed commentary on the 2016 election loss by Hilary Clinton to Donald Trump. The most notable of which was Leftist commentary, and false claims about concretely debunked Russian collusion.
With YouTube’s capitulation, Big Tech appears to be moving further towards a system of indoctrination which resembles the one used by the Chinese Communist Party, who, through the inherent Marxist culture of suspicion, with the power of mass surveillance and its Golden Shield firewall, controls how Chinese people use the internet; what citizens see, search, hear, read, or learn.
YouTube’s decision to censure the expression of dissent, analysis and information further reveals the hypocrisy and bias already entrenched in the Technocrat’s billion-dollar playground.
They wanted to stop interference in the election but played election interference for the Democrats.
They were quick to censure President Trump and block reasoned, commentary on COVID-19 treatments, but allowed the CCP’s Lijian Zhao to keep up a tweet falsely depicting an Australian soldier slicing the throat of an Afghan child.
If this image isn’t punishable under Big Tech’s Eula regarding “misleading information” or “hate speech” what is?
Zhao’s false and offensive tweet was posted on November, 30th. It’s still active, hasn’t been fact-checked, or tagged. Neither has the account been suspended, and reports to Twitter about it have gone unanswered.
The lack of action taken against Lijian’s false and misleading tweet strongly indicates that Big Tech globalists are in bed with the CCP.
And like the CCP, they’re now blocking and censuring any content which questions the ideological paradigm.
It would appear that the insidiously wealthy Technocrats of Silicon Valley don’t want you to disagree or question the narrative.
Blocking questions, analysis and opinion about the U.S election is equal to them participating in a cover-up.
It’s worth pondering: Why would technocrats silence dissent, analysis, free and open debate, if the alleged Democrat “win” was legal?
