I decided a while back that I\u2019m just going to document all the weird censorship activities that I personally encounter from giant social media corporations in order to have information available to the public so the hive mind can connect the dots on all the myriad ways that anti-establishment voices are being silenced. A lot of the tactics that these corporations are using to stifle dissent depend on the fact that they\u2019re occurring within individual social media accounts, and the only way to learn more about how those tactics are being used is for all of us to publicly share our own experiences with them.<\/p>\n

It might look a little unusual, but in my opinion by making as much anti-establishment noise as I can and then documenting all the ways my voice is silenced and marginalized I\u2019m performing a useful journalistic service to the new media landscape. In a corporatist system of government, wherein corporate power is not separate in any meaningful way<\/a> from government power, corporate censorship is government censorship. It\u2019s important to learn how these quasi-governmental surveillance-based Silicon Valley corporations are protecting the establishment on which their plutocratic dynasties are built.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before I go on, let me remind my audience that last year Twitter openly admitted<\/a> to censoring the #DNCLeaks hashtag in the lead up to the 2016 election to prevent it from trending, which Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey blatantly lied about<\/a> doing at the time. Let me also remind you that Twitter, along with Facebook and Google, was asked on the Senate floor<\/a> a few months ago to take measures to \u201csilence\u201d rebellious voices in order to \u201cprevent the fomenting of discord\u201d in America.<\/p>\n
