White House Justifies Pressuring Facebook to Censor Supposed COVID Misinformation

White House Justifies Pressuring Facebook to Censor Supposed COVID Misinformation

Shorter White House: “We had to do it, bro.”

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg admitted Joe Biden’s administration, including the White House, pressured Facebook to censor supposed COVID misinformation.

The White House told Fox News:

“When confronted with a deadly pandemic, this administration encouraged responsible actions to protect public health and safety. Our position has been clear and consistent: we believe tech companies and other private actors should take into account the effects their actions have on the American people, while making independent choices about the information they present.”

I wonder what the FBI will say since Zuckerberg also announced that the agency warned them “about a potential Russian disinformation operation about the Biden family and Burisma in the lead up to the 2020 election.”

Once The New York Post dropped the Hunter Biden laptop story, Facebook demoted related posts until fact-checkers could confirm the story.

Weird, huh?

He was complicit in this censorship. He’s just another cockroach scurrying away from the spotlight on the deep state. This cannot be forgotten.

The problem is that the government ever thought it had the right to try to enlist others for the things it had no right to do itself.

Again this is why people like Robert Kennedy because he had the courage to tell the truth at a time when that was severely penalized. While I appreciate Zuckerberg admitting he was wrong now ( as no politician ever will ) it’s easy to say it after the fact when you have no consequences.

Why doesn’t Facebook sue the government? It has standing. It would win. It would establish precedent and help defend liberty. I guess that’s why it won’t.

censorship

the only thing that changed is when trump won in 2016 and showed the cracks in the supposed air-tight system the lefty thought they had over america

so they sealed it up even further in 2020

some were allowed to be free to do as they please and pro americans not so much

we are the lost sheep in the desert of america
trying to maintain civility while opposing forces take advantage of that civility

they want bad things to happen to shift the focal point away from their takeover of the 1st amendment and the second amend to follow,

we all know it

they even trieddd to deny trump was shot at..or shot
