WORLD—There’s good news for the internet: studies show it’s now just a few bans away from finally only having good opinions on it. Much of social media had become dominated by racism, conspiracy theories, and people who are just plain wrong about things, but by simply kicking off people who pretty much everyone agrees is bad, studies show soon only good discussion will dominate the internet.
“There are literal Nazis on social media now,” said researcher Douglass Simmons, “but we have a tool the Nazis didn’t have: banning unpopular speech. By applying and expanding this tool, we can make the internet a place everyone—everyone who is left, anyway—can enjoy.” This new internet is made by a coalition of liberals and their natural ally: large corporations. Together they plan to work together to cull just the really bad opinions and then stop when just the good viewpoints are left.
As for the people with unpopular views, they’ll be further marginalized and, presumably, react by getting better opinions—though researchers admit it will be hard to know for sure as now no one will ever hear from them again.
Go here to read the rest. When Big Tech is clearly working in lockstep with an incoming administration eager to define its opponents as domestic terrorists, the polite word for this is censorship, the impolite word is tyranny. Freedom in this country is rapidly becoming a haves and have nots situation, based entirely on political beliefs. It is almost as if the incoming Puppet Masters Administration and Big Tech are acting at the behest of China to make certain that a US, fighting a domestic war, leaves the world stage to Peking. You are living in a bizarre time indeed when conspiracy theories make more sense than an increasingly daft reality.
Big Tech works for China along with most large corporations who do business there. The Democrats have sold out to China. And the Vatican too. Who should be surprised? Next the Ant-Christ? Seems like it.

Amazon is trying to shut down Parler completely. I do hope their CEO has contingency plans for web hosting. It does seem to me egregious that you can have this collusion and that commercial contracts can be cancelled with essentially no notice.
