I am sure we have all heard of cases where entities, usually social media platforms, remove or silence people for allegedly spreading "covid disinfo". To me this is just such bullshit. Why do the people behind these outlets feel that they are qualified to judge whether something is disinfo or not? Besides, that is the whole point of having a public discourse about it. So we can find out for ourselves what's truly disinfo and what isn't. But these platforms and the people behind them have already made up their minds. They are not interested in having a genuine debate. They also think they can unilaterally decide what's truth and what's falsehood.

And when a platform does not allow for true debates and instead promotes certain views and narratives to the exclusion of others, they can be rightfully considered propanganda mouthhpieces. They can no longer claim that they represent a forum where all views are given a chance to be considered.

Question to you: who gets to decide what's disinfo? Do you want twitter or facebook deciding that for you? Why do these establishments act like they have the monopoly on truth?

You are a couple years late to this conversation.

Was it may or June 2020 when that large panel of doctors came forward with their findings and got wiped clean off the internet within hours of releasing the video? It happened so quickly it almost seems like a dream that may or may not have happened because most people got to see it once before it disappeared. Bright sunny day, outdoor press conference with physicians. You know what I’m talking about.

Lol I guess. I can be a bit of a reactor sometimes. Apart from hitting on hot guys, I don't really take the initiative.

I am actually not aware of this vid. Do you still have a link to it? You can post it on bitchute for others to see.

Like I said it was actually removed from the internet within hours of being released. Had millions of views and then poof. I am 100% certain many users will remember this.

Is there a way to reach these users and try to get them to talk about the vid and more importantly how it was scrubbed clean off the internet so fast.

Or alternatively, we can reach out to dissenting physicians and have them talk about their objections and make a new vid about it.

We need it because people are too stupid to understand what's disinfo and what's not. If we valued critical thinking in this country, we could have nice things.

Who are you to say that people are too stupid to figure out things for themselves? Who do you think you are?

You would know the users here more than I do.

I'm a person with common sense. The CDC had to put out advisories to not ingest disinfectants because we had an increase of people poisoning themselves. Until people stop doing stupid things, we'll need organizations to stop the spread of ideas that can kill you.
