NPR admitted the obvious, Big Tech has the power to influence elections. Zuckerbucks, Zuckerboxes were just a small part of what they can do. By eliminating the right from their search feature, only the Left gets their viewpoint out in the public square.
“Whether or not Facebook decides to reinstate former President Trump’s account in the coming months will likely have major consequences for Trump’s political power and possible future campaign,” NPR wrote on Twitter.
“Being on Facebook is crucial for modern-day political campaigns,” NPR explains in the accompanying story. A Big Tech blackout would mean a drop in fundraising and “a significant revenue valve would be shut off for Trump, imperiling a 2024 presidential bid, if he decides to run again.” This could also trickle down to negatively affect the midterm candidates he plans to endorse, they write.
It’s pathetic that our publicly paid for network took this long to somewhat admit the truth.
Interesting way of admitting how much election interference and election meddling against Republicans that our tech companies can do and have done! https://t.co/EzQMD3lWO2

It’s OK for media to carry Political Speech, but only if the playing field is fair. The 230 law protects the Media from being sued for content, it does not protect them from bias. The Constitution and Civil Rights Laws protect political speech and so the editing or “cancellation” of that speech is illegal. The editing or “cancellation” of speech are technically a campaign contribution because it is picking one side over the other. Media like Facebook and Twitter should be sliced and diced and the owners fined into poverty for Civil Rights abuse. As a Public Square, you either allow all political speech or none!
Everywhere that alien/human hybrid Zuckerborg face or that bird’s nest grill comrade Dorsey.
Where is Emmanuel Goldstein when you need him?
