Zuckerberg testifies to caving to pressure from FBI and White House.

 CENSORSHIP FOR POLITICAL POWER ACKNOWLEDGED

ZUCKERBERG KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING


Mark Zuckerberg has testified before the House judiciary committee that Meta or Facebook was pressured by the FBI to kill the Hunter Biden laptop story leading up to the 2020 election. He also testified that he was pressured to block any analysis that questioned the MRNA vaccine or other opinions about Covid. He testified that both White House and the FBI told him that the Biden corruption story was Russian disinformation, when it was known by the FBI to be a true and accurate story since they actually had the laptop long before this pressure was exerted.

Zuckerberg has released a letter apologizing for this censorship and pledges to not engage in similar censorship. It is more likely that he is attempting to cover himself in the event that Donald Trump should be elected president. There are plenty of indications that Facebook is still engaging in government inspired censorship.

I found that I had stories on Bloomberg and Jeffrey Epstein blocked on fakebook years ago and my blog is still blocked on facebook. In the last week I have been blocked for advertising Trump yard signs on facebook marketplace and am still blocked from any activities on marketplace. These same signs and ads were placed in earlier election cycles without incident, but what changed is anyone's guess. No policy against political signs was ever listed by facebook. Facebook never actually tells you what is their problem, but just arbitrarily suspends or blocks you without any reasons. I suspect they do not want to put in writing that they are engaging in political censorship.

While Zuckerberg's revelation or I should say verification of what everyone already knew is a serious examples of government abuse of power, it is still ongoing and most likely will escalate during this election. The Washington Post and New York Times have failed to report on Zuckerberg's testimony. I suppose their handlers in the intelligence community have vetoed any such stories.

It has previously been revealed under testimony that the FBI actually had staff on on all the social media platforms. This was revealed by investigations into Twitter in the past. It seems likely that they also have staff or continuous communication with the print and cable news media. I suspect that real free political speech is a thing of the past. 

The people continually talking about threats to democracy are the very same people who are engaging in abuse of government power and are the real threat to democracy. I suspect that the majority of democrats support this activity, if it will enhance their possibility of victory.
