At the Congressional hearing on Social Media Censorship yesterday, Michael Shellenberger lays it out. I really would LOVE liberals to defend the government telling free American citizens what they can't speak about online in regards to, say, Covid vaccines, etc.
Let your totalitarian freak flags fly. Whatcha got?

SHELLENBERGER: “Seeing this censorship industry go from, well, we’re just fighting ISIS to well, we’re just fighting Russian disinformation bots to well, now we need to fight domestic misinformation, which is just saying we need to fight against people who are saying things we disagree with online, that’s all that means. And I — I mean, it’s not a slippery slope. It’s an immediate leap into a terrifying mechanism that I — we only see in totalitarian societies of attempting to gain control over what the social media platforms are allow — are allowing. And so yeah, for me, it’s just — it starts at DHS, but we basically see almost every government agency involved in this.”
