Free thinkers should mark down this moment as the coming out party for Big Brother, who’s coordinating with Democrats to ban opposition due diligence, expression, and redress. By insisting a “coup” was attempted on January 6, Big Media and Big Tech are openly hoisting one-party rule on America. This re-defines “forgotten America” as no Republican influence in Washington and no conservative voices heard anywhere.
The irony of the Washington Post claiming “democracy dies in darkness” has never been greater. After smearing a Catholic teen, Nick Sandman, as a “racist,” the Post settled to keep its handiwork out of the light of a courtroom. It’s no coincidence it’s coverage of January 6 neglected important truth nuggets.
The Post headline: “Trump issued a call to arms.” Odd way to report his call to “march over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”
The Post on-line clickbait: “Pro-Trump mob breaches Capitol [and] forced its way into the Capitol building.” Odd way to report a protest where many citizens simply “walked through open doors” (source: Epoch Times).
To be sure, there were violent actors, but the issue here is how Big Tech and Big Media behaved. It’s reasonable to compare these angry citizens to those in Hong Kong (2019) and Lebanon (2020), except Facebook and Twitter did not block those protesters’ anti-government allegations and video clips. Just imagine the media’s claims of “mostly peaceful protests” by Antifa and Black Bloc without individual citizens streaming the truth on social media.
This moment has been building since 63 million voters prevented a Clinton restoration in the White House. Armed only with Clinton-provided leaks, Big Media kept the Mother of All Conspiracies alive for two years, while Big Social Media added zero this has not been fact-checked warnings. I cannot recall a single conspiracy-promoting Democrat being banned by Facebook or Twitter. Are the two political parties competing on a level “information” playing field? I think not.
Social media hid Biden pay-to-play reports. Biden’s campaign sailed through the election without news media due diligence. Pelosi bull-rushed an impeachment trial and will investigate GOP members for taking rally-goers on “intelligence gathering” tours of the Capitol. Simon and Schuster canceled a Republican senator’s book because he (Josh Hawley) “incited” riots by questioning Biden’s legitimacy. Editors at Forbes urged corporations to blackball Trump White House communication staff.
Take a moment and reflect upon the forgotten Americans of the 50s and 60s. I am, of course, referring to black Americans and how Democrats (again) prolonged their aggrieved status by diluting votes and silencing voices – and what did they do? Turn their houses of worship into sentinels of political and cultural aspiration. Conservatives need to follow that example, because BIG INFOTECH is closed to non-Democrats.
It’s no coincidence that Mayor De Blasio and Governor Newsom closed synagogues and churches but allowed mass protests, that CNN felt a “stolen election” was real news in 2016 but fake news on 2020, or that MSNBC called faithless electors “insurrectionists” in 2020 but “patriots” in 2016. A conservative can survive Joe Biden, but our republic can’t survive information totalitarianism – because democracy dies in darkness.
