Meet The Partisans Who Wove The Censorship Complex’s Vast And Tangled Web
While federal funding is not solely responsible for the rapid expansion of the Censorship Complex, it is the most troubling because our government is using our money to censor our speech.

Here's Who Wove The Censorship Complex's Big, Tangled Web
Federal funding isn't solely behind the Censorship Complex, but it's the most troubling: our government using our money to censor our speech.

While the “Twitter Files” and the Washington Examiner’s coverage of the Global Disinformation Index have revealed an expansive Censorship Complex that seeks to silence Americans for money, politics, ideology, and power, much still needs to be unraveled.
A search of government contracts and grants for the eight fiscal years from 2016 through today for the keywords “misinformation” or “disinformation” reveals 538 federal government grants and 36 contracts were awarded to a wide range of academic institutions and non-governmental organizations.
Mapping out the connections among the various award recipients, the government, and the pro-censorship left will require more work. But this simple snapshot confirms taxpayers’ money is funding the expansion of the Censorship Complex, as the prior eight fiscal years, from 2008 to 2015, reveal the federal government awarded only two federal contracts and seven federal grants for “disinformation” or “misinformation” research.
Likewise, an initial investigation into the nonprofits and academic institutions mentioned in the “Twitter Files” reveals government grants, donations from other liberal nonprofits, and money from leftist billionaires funded the expansion of the Censorship Complex. Research also shows the non-governmental organizations pushing the disinformation narrative are uniformly directed and run by former government employees, left-wing media types, and left-leaning or anti-Trump individuals.

Commentary:
Awesome investigative journalism.
”In your face” is our Maoist Communist masters' favorite tool to rattle the chains of tyranny that they have wrapped around our necks...
Our masters know that the pathetically servile and indolent American people will just continue to roll over and spread their collective cheeks...
American citizens now understand that the First Amendment calls for them to: Bow down!... Obey!... Snitch!...
The men that stormed the beaches of Normandy, islands in the Pacific, n Korea and the Jungles of Vietnam are past history. Their children and grandchildren have been brainwashed subtlety from young ages in our schools and Universities. Wat we believed was education was indoctrination.
Meanwhile, our Forth Estate as become the Fifth Column and the MSM dictates wat we can and cannot read or express.
Welcome to te combined version of Orwell's 1984 and Huxley's Brave New World.
