Last week we saw Facebook and Twitter impose censorship on a New York Post story. The story is regarding Hunter Biden. Facebook has an audience of 2.7 billion people worldwide. Twitter is the largest news source worldwide today.
Big Tech has been attacking conservatives for years but more recently they have shifted gears. Now they include classic liberals as the enemy too. Censorship is vast and fully surfacing following the suppression of the New York Post.
Heh! Reports are coming back that said Progressive is unhappy that said Conservatarian is using her words in order to comment on them. Free Speech much? Naw, she’s the California version of NH State Rep Jan Schmidt – you know, the Bernie-Bro that hates the idea that ANYONE disagrees with her monoculture foreign political philosophy …
Way back in 2017 (it seems almost ancient history now) I wrote this “editorial” for another blog. I don’t claim to be prescient, but it was obvious even back then that “social media platforms” were out of control.

Well, one of them will be a heavyweight – the other will be suffering from sleeping in his basement these many months. Either way, I’ll be tweeting my way through the lambasting. Yeah, I don’t think Biden can keep up with Trump but that’s why the game is played – to find out.
I suppose I’ve now triggered her and she’ll start screaming “Harassment!” just like the sponsors of the now down in flames HB1159 (the “shut the ‘Grok down” bill). All because a loyal reader pointed me to a few of Gracie Gato’s tweets – and this one tells us where she’s at as far as NH …

Bob Forsythe is a Republican NH State Rep that has a number of charges against him including domestic violence. For the last few days, the political establishment on both sides of the aisle has been calling for him to resign even as he was running for re-election. Yesterday, he did.
