One of the thousands of examples of an expert being silenced on Corona issues
If you know science, you don't ever do this.
If you’re aware enough to be reading this, you’ve almost certainly heard about how so many scientific and medical experts have been silenced or censored because they dared to challenge any of the fear porn or pro “vaccine” narratives on Corona. In some cases those experts refused to be silenced and found other routes around the censorship. In probably many more cases experts were pressured behind the scenes and opted to go along with the narratives in order to keep their jobs.
Far beyond the single story above, the big picture issue is the censorship itself and the reasons it’s been happening. You don’t need to silence people if your arguments are sound, and you don’t silence people unless you are a fascist, communist, or some other brand of authoritarian. Anyone and everyone out there thinking that silencing people to “stop misinformation” is just fine needs to grasp this. Of course 95+% of those people are hard core leftists themselves, and/or brainless left wingers. Anyone who thinks “science” involves silencing experts who disagree with any particular idea wouldn’t know science if it fell on their head.
Left wing tech companies that are supposed to be platforms (not publishers) joining in with the censorship is an extremely bad sign. That just shows you that FascistBook, Twatter, LinkedIn, etc. are all controlled by left wing authoritarians who don’t give a damn about the 1st amendment.
There is nothing in the 1st amendment that gives governments or anyone else the power to decide what is and what is not “misinformation”. All of the censorship, “fact checking”, etc., that you have seen over the past 2 years of Corona madness (plus even prior to that since Trump was elected and left wingers realized they needed to exponentially ramp up their propaganda), is horridly anti-American and a violation of the Constitution. And on that latter point, I’m sure the founders did not intend for employers to have the ability to effectively circumvent the Bill Of Rights by firing employees whose views those employers do not like.
At this point we need to see a lot more of these apologies, and then we need to see severe consequences for all those who have perpetrated the crimes against humanity.
I do realize the term ‘left wing authoritarians’ is redundant.
