Environment of censorship
Nov 23rd, 2019 at 4:52pm
 
How long can Ozpolitic continue with such control?

see here including a video:

http://www.unz.com/article/social-media-censorship-reaches-new-heights-as-twitte...

It’s an open secret. The deep state is working hand in hand with Silicon Valley social media giants like Twitter, Facebook and Google to control the flow of information. That includes suppressing, censoring and sometimes outright purging dissenting voices – all under the guise of fighting fake news and Russian propaganda.

Most recently, it was revealed that Twitter’s senior editorial executive for Europe, the Middle East and Africa is an active officer in the British Army’s 77th Brigade, a unit dedicated to online warfare and psychological operations.

In other words: he specializes in disseminating propaganda.

The news left many wondering how a member of the British Armed Forces secured such an influential job in the media.

The bombshell that one of the world’s most influential social networks is controlled in part by an active psychological warfare officer was not covered at all in the New York Times, CNN, CNBC, MSNBC or Fox News, who appear to have found the news unremarkable.

But for those paying attention and for those who have been following ’MintPress News’ extensive coverage of social media censorship, this revelation was merely another example of the increasing closeness between the deep state and the fourth estate.

Amazon owner, and world’s richest man, Jeff Bezos was paid $600 million by the CIA to develop software and media for the agency, that’s more than twice as much as Bezos bought the Washington Post for, and a move media critics warn spells the end of journalistic independence for the Post.

No replies yet?

Just as an aside - another popular site got taken down
due to losing its server - probably caused by the Govt.
It's known as     https://gab.com.
Anyway - gab came back up again as it is now hosted from multiple sites/servers.

The same action could happen to Ozpolitic and many other sites.
If opinions are on sites that don't agree with the Govt. of the day, they get closed down.

Bobby went to the library to find some books on paranoia ...

He asked the librarian where they were ...

She said: "They're right behind you."  Wink

It's kind of ironic considering Bobby banned a couple of posters from his forum that he didn't agree with

The Right Wing only believe in free speech when they agree with what is being said.

Only one person is banned - that is Barryfromthebush
who I think is now banned from the whole site -
he was just a troll, sock puppet.
