RE:RE:It's just theorySeriously tannin? You are incredibly naive or easily fooled (manipulated).
Accurate information can be hard to come by these days. Last week, Mark Zuckerberg admitted that the FBI interfered at Facebook on behalf of the current administration. Sadly, this feels like old news by now.
Government censorship and false media narratives are nothing new.
- The Sedition Act of 1798 – The law criminalized the “writing, printing, uttering or publishing [of] any false, scandalous and malicious writing or writings about the government of the United States.”
- The Civil War – President Lincoln took control of the telegraph lines, suspended habeas corpus, and issued an order that prohibited newspapers from printing war news without approval. Newspapers that criticized Lincoln were shut down, and individuals who delivered anti-war speeches were arrested.
- The Espionage Act of 1917 – During WWI, this law criminalized any attempt to harm the war effort. It also gave the postmaster general the power to ban any mail “advocating or urging treason, insurrection, or forcible resistance to any law of the United States.”
- The Sedition Act of 1918 – This was an amendment to the Espionage Act, which prohibited “uttering, printing, writing, or publishing any disloyal, profane, scurrilous, or abusive language intended to cause contempt, scorn … as regards the form of government of the United States or Constitution, or the flag or the uniform of the Army or Navy.”
- Pearl Harbor – After the Pearl Harbor attack, President Roosevelt gave the FBI emergency authority to censor all news and communications.
- Vietnam War – There were multiple accounts of assaults and interference with free speech protests.
- The Pentagon Papers – The Nixon Administration obtained a court order barring The New York Times and the Washington Post from publishing the Pentagon Papers in 1971. The case went to the Supreme Court, where it was found the government could not prohibit these news sources from publishing these documents.
- Section 215 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act – After 9/11, this law gave government officials the ability to read business records, library records, healthcare records, logs of internet service providers, and other documents and papers.
- Today – Social media is monitored and targeted, and information is collected by the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, and the State Department
I highlighted them in the hope you do not pass over the information so easily.
Back to Zuckerberg:
Just last week, Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, told the most listened-to podcast host in the world, Joe Rogan, the reason why so few Americans heard anything about the scandal with Hunter Biden’s laptop prior to the 2020 Presidential election:
“The FBI, I think basically came to us — some folks on our team and was like, ‘Hey, um, just so you know, like, you should be on high alert. There was the — we thought that there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the 2016 election. We have it on notice that basically there’s about to be some kind of dump of — that’s similar to that. So just be vigilant.’ […] We just kind of thought, Hey look, if the FBI, which, you know, I still view as a legitimate institution in this country, it’s a very professional law enforcement. […] They come to us and tell us that we need to be on guard about something. Then I wanna take that seriously.”
So, when The New York Post originally published information on Hunter Biden’s laptop, Facebook deemed it misinformation at the time, even though, according to Zuckerberg, “I mean the fact-checkers looked into it, no one was able to say it was false, right. So basically it had this period where it was getting less distribution.”
If this feels a little like campaign meddling by the FBI, well…YOU be the judge.
What’s interesting about this is that the story of Zuckerberg on Rogan’s podcast appears to have been suppressed—not just on Facebook, but in the media in general.
Read that once more tannin. Are you seriously that blind?
