Politicians, corporations, AIPAC… all so afraid of the truth they got congress to fast track legislation to ban TikTok because the youth say Free Palestine.
It’s not a foreign interest that's pushing pro-Palestine content which is undermining US foreign policy. It’s the people who are no longer falling for genocidal propaganda and have been watching the truth play out before their very eyes for months on end. We would be seeing the exact same thing on meta if they would stop silencing people, deleting pro-Palestine accounts and posts, and falsely translating Arabic to fit their imperialist and genocidal agenda.
This is about suppressing information and stomping dissent. It’s about censorship.
Maybe it’s at a higher volume now, but none of this is anything new. Content and information about protests, fascists, and police brutality has been censored for a while now. Anyone paying attention in 2020-21 saw how much censorship there was. Posts getting removed that didn’t evade any of the terms on said platforms, leftist creator accounts and journalists being banned from platforms, etc. Anything that undermines the interests of corporations and capitalism is going to be perceived as a major threat- especially when they gain traction and wide support from the actual people.
Things are not looking great.
