7 March 2020 - censorship 1

< yesterday -- tomorrow >

Now that everyone’s in favor of censorship again, let’s talk about it. The great thing about censorship today is that it is under control—no more free-range government policies and industry cartels, today the great internet monopolies have gathered in that power and, as private individuals, can act more arbitrarily than any Hays Code. Remember, facts are not censored, only lies and harmful speech like “I want to blow up these censors.” And hey, you can still start a hoax, just don’t get your friends in on it, that’s coordinated inauthentic behavior.
