White House Instructed YouTube To Take down Any Content Contradicting the World Health Organisation

Indeed, censorship is a full-on industry now, with hundreds and thousands of cut-outs, universities, media companies, government agencies, and even young people in school studying to be disinformation specialists, and bragging about it on social media. We are just one step away from a New York Times article – as follow-ups to their recent praise of the Deep State and also government surveillance – with a headline like “The Good Society Needs Censors.”
Incredibly, the censorship is so pervasive now that it is not even reported. All these revelations should have been front page news. But so captured is the news media today that there are very few outlets that even bother to report the fullness of the problem.
Not receiving nearly enough attention is the new report from the Committee on the Judiciary and the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government of the US House of Representatives.
Running nearly 1,000 pages including documentation (however many pages are purposely blank), we have here an overwhelming amount of evidence of a systematic, aggressive, and deeply entrenched effort on the part of the federal government, including the Biden White House, and many agencies, including the World Health Organisation, to tear out the guts of the Internet and social media culture and replace them with propaganda.
Among the well-documented facts are that the White House directly intervened in Amazon’s own marketing methods to deprecate books that raised doubts about the COVID vaccine and all vaccines. Amazon responded reluctantly but did what it could to satisfy the censors. All these companies—Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Amazon—became acquiescent to Biden administration priorities, even to the point of running algorithmic changes by the White House before implementation.
When YouTube announced that it would take down any content that contradicted the World Health Organisation, it was because the White House instructed them to do so.
As for Amazon, which is like every publisher in wanting full freedom to distribute, they faced intense pressure from the government.
These are just a few of thousands of pieces of evidence of routine interference from the government against social media companies, either directly or through various government-funded cut-outs, all designed to enforce a certain way of thinking on the American public.
What’s amazing is that this industry was allowed to metastasize to such an extent over 4-8 years or so, with no legal oversight and very little knowledge on the part of the public.
