I got this off of SAIDIT's front page.

I don't know if this site is right wing, but I (who am not right wing) am also very alarmed by the new Democratic party push to censor speech, which they're doing in cahoots with Big Tech.

For years now, Big Tech has censored legitimate criticism of gender ideology and the gender lobby, but now it seems they have the Democrats backing them up.

People pushing this don’t seem to understand censorship is a double-edged sword and that the pendulum swings the opposite direction too.

Not if you can successfully push the other side out of power. They are trying to do it it, make no mistake and the media is going right along with it. Any questioning of election results in their favor anywhere is verboten. Any wild conspiracy theories about Russia or voter suppression = totally valid. Any criticism of Biden and Dems in general is met with utter contempt, and the media just takes it lying down when Psaki just spews word salad with deflection dressing at them. They just nod right along and can claim they are "asking the tough questions". The other day, someone asked about Yellen's apparent conflict of interest in the Gamestop mess b/c she has raked in almost a million bucks in speaking fees from Citadel, one of the affected hedge funds. The response from Psaki ? She opened by reminding everyone that Yellen is a woman(gotta put the identity politics out there first thing !), that they're keeping an eye on it, and that OF COURSE Yellen would have raked in big bucks from these people, so it's really NBD. Response form most of the media ? Chirp, chirp, chirp. They know they have a subservient press corps b/c they scream racism, fascism, whatever-phobia, and the media just repeats it word for word. Look at the hypocrisy surrounding the use of the national guard. Cities on fire for months and months, calling them out is the mark of a fascist dictator. The shitshow at the Capitol was done and over with in a matter of hours, plenty of people rightfully are going to jail (unlike BLM/Antifa riots where it is mostly a revolving door of arrest, release, drop charges) yet thousands of troops are still there for threats that they cannot articulate.

All you need to know about how this will go down is that Biden appointed a new person to head up the DOJ's criminal division, which is currently investigating his son Hunter. The person appointed ? Hunter's defense attorney's former legal partner, who also worked in the Obama-Biden White House. Nothing shady there, and not a single peep from mainstream media.

It is easy to push the other side out when the media is doing half of the pushing.

This morning the clouds parted and handed me an epiphany, or rather the perfect description of our system. We currently live in a diabolarchy.

Silicon Valley is the second greatest threat to Americans' freedoms, after Wall Street.

Wow. This is beyond disturbing, this is horrifying. Expressing your opinions on a law is "inciting violence?" How is that the same as planning and scheduling an actual riot?? They're just opinions!

If this is true then we're really going to have an uphill battle ahead of us. Thanks for sharing. Perhaps it is more timely and relevant than ever to talk about cybersafety on the internet, and how we can safely go about promoting our sub without getting banned and targeted.

Zuckerberg belongs in jail.
