A federal judge yesterday ordered the Biden administration to halt a wide range of communications with social media companies, siding with Missouri and Louisiana in a lawsuit that alleges Biden and his administration violated the First Amendment by colluding with social networks “to suppress disfavored speakers, viewpoints, and content.”
Agreed. I misinterpreted it, but my main points still stand.
What exactly was your main point then, if not that he was forced to resign? Everything else you posted seems to be in service of defending that claim.
My main point was that the Whitehouse shouldn’t be allowed to censor people (via the FBI) by calling certain information “misinformation” (especially when they had little to no evidence to support their own narrative) by forcing social media platforms to carry out said cencorship (or really in any way in all honesty).
The current administration came up with a narrative, and stifled any and all debate, including that of the then CDC director who they subsequently sidelined simply for saying we should investigate both possibilities on the origins of the virus.
And you’re still wrong! There is no evidence that the government forced social media companies to do anything, and the article you provided doesn’t even make the claim that anyone was forced to do anything.
I didn’t say that article claimed that. This information is already known, and it’s why there is a case in the first place. The Twitter files came out and corroborated that it had been going on for quite a while.
So you don’t have any source for your claim that social media companies were literally forced to take actions directed by the government?
