ANALYSIS<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 The Elon Musk ‘Twitter Files’ expos\u00e9, much-ignored and maligned by the establishment media, has shown a consistent effort by various U.S. government agencies, and several prominent Democrat lawmakers, to censor or cancel dissenting, mostly conservative views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the guise of combating \u2018misinformation,\u2019 a wholly concocted concept to justify censorship, Big Tech slowly at first, but increasingly later, got cozily into bed with Uncle Sam\u2026 and Adam Schiff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fox News\u00a0reports<\/a>\u00a0that journalist Matt Taibbi joined Joe Rogan\u2019s podcast to break down how the federal government, including the office of\u00a0Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.<\/a>, the hyper-partisan former chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, frequently contacted Twitter to have the content removed from the social media platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to note that Taibbi is not a right-wing conspiracy theorist. On the contrary, he is a left-leaning former contributing editor for Rolling Stone, and the author of several books, including \u2018Insane Clown President,\u2019 an unflattering portrayal of Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Taibbi, the relationship between our security agencies like the FBI and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and tech companies like Twitter and Facebook was a “little bit less formal” than he originally thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than playing an advisory role, the feds and Twitter created a “really intense structure” cultivated over several years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This structure included regular meetings and a system where the DHS handled censorship requests from the states while the FBI fielded international requests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taibbi said he was “especially shocked” by an email from a Schiff staffer who called for the suspension of journalists on Twitter who tweeted critically on the House Intelligence Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rogan replied that it was “bizarre” for someone in the government to openly call for censorship in unsecured, unclassified emails that could be disseminated publicly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taibbi said it represents a Big Government and Big Tech mentality of being “impregnable” without fear of oversight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not surprising, he added, because, “They’re so comfortable with the idea that the government should be involved in this censorship\u2026\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that\u2019s not all. Fox News reports:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

In a January installment of “The Twitter Files”<\/a>, Taibbi indicated Schiff’s staff asked Twitter “quite often” to take down certain tweets. A separate batch of Twitter Files that same month revealed similar requests by Schiff’s office.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An example he shared was one sent in November 2020 by Schiff’s office, which contacted Twitter hoping the tech giant would take action regarding “alleged harassment from QAnon conspiracists” against Schiff’s staff, including aide Sean Misko. The latest batch indicates Schiff’s office even fought to have unflattering pictures removed.

“This important use of taxpayer resources involved an ask about a ‘Peter Douche’ parody photo of Joe Biden. The DNC made the same request,” Taibbi wrote, proving visual evidence.

“To its credit, Twitter refused to remove it, with Trust and Safety chief Yoel Roth saying it had obvious ‘humorous intent’ and ‘any reasonable observer’ – apparently, not a Schiff staffer – could see it was doctored,” he added.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, as the New York Post reports<\/a>, things only appear to be getting worse, with left-leaning Big Tech billionaires like Bill Gates promoting even more frightening ideas to control conservatives. 

In a recent chilling interview, Microsoft founder and billionaire Bill Gates called for the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to combat not just \u201cdigital misinformation\u201d but \u201cpolitical polarization,” as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gates wants to fight this feared \u201cpolitical polarization\u201d by checking \u201cconfirmation bias,\u201d the tendency of people to search for information in a way that confirms their own embedded beliefs.

While this can be applied to anyone, left, right, or center, including COVID-19 fear mongers, climate change extremists, or Trump-Russia-collusion fanatics, it is now being used exclusively by our self-appointed tech overlords to dismiss all those who oppose and accepted,\u00a0established liberal mantras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And like all Leftist agendas, fear of the end fuels their need for control.

First, it was the fear of the end of the planet due to climate change, now it\u2019s the fear of the end of democracy due to conservative ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To these technocratic leftists, robust, free-wheeling debate in a democracy is now considered \u201cpolitical polarization,\u201d and must be quashed to save us from death.

If we don\u2019t use Gate\u2019s enlightened, benevolent AI to supply the solutions, Gates suggested, we could all die: \u201cPolitical polarization may bring it all to an end, we\u2019re going to have a hung election and a civil war.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And many leading left-wing Democrats, including Joe Biden, agree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the New York Post explains, the Orwellian Leftist censorship landscape may only get worse, even as they use a book by Aldous Huxley for their metaphor:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Others have suggested a Brave New World where citizens will be carefully guided in what they read and see. Democratic leaders have called for a type of \u201cenlightened algorithm\u201d to frame what citizens access on the internet. In 2021, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) objected that people were not listening to the informed views of herself and leading experts. Instead, they were reading views of skeptics by searching Amazon and finding books by \u201cprominent spreaders of misinformation.\u201d<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warren blamed Amazon for failing to limit searches or choices: \u201cThis pattern and practice of misbehavior suggests that Amazon is either unwilling or unable to modify its business practices to prevent the spread of falsehoods or the sale of inappropriate products.\u201d In her letter, Warren gave the company 14 days to change its algorithms to throttle and obstruct efforts to read opposing views.

<\/em>Social media responded to such calls and engaged in widespread censorship of those who held opposing views of mask mandates, vaccine safety, school mandates, and the origin of COVID-19. Many of those criticisms and views are now acknowledged as plausible and legitimate, but scientists were banned and censored. There was no \u201cpolarization\u201d allowed. The public never was allowed to have that full debate on social media because such views were declared disinformation.

President Biden joined in these calls for censorship, often sounding like a censor-in-chief, <\/em>denouncing social media companies for \u201ckilling people\u201d <\/a><\/em>by not blocking enough. Recently, he expressed doubt that the public can \u201cknow the truth\u201d without such censorship by \u201ceditors\u201d in Big Tech.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Well, in this case the fear is justified. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it\u2019s not fear that far-left Democrats and Big Tech billionaires espouse; it\u2019s the fear of losing our constitutional right to free speech, and the platforms to express them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not to mention your\u00a0right to order any book you want\u00a0from Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
