When Media Becomes An Instrument Of Genocide
1. THREAD:
THE TWITTER FILES: HOW TWITTER RIGGED THE COVID DEBATE
– By censoring info that was true but inconvenient to U.S. govt. policy
– By discrediting doctors and other experts who disagreed
– By suppressing ordinary users, including some sharing the CDC’s *own data*
Much more to The Twitter Files: Covid Editon than this introductory thread.
Follow-up piece to come next week, featuring leading doctors & researchers from Harvard, Stanford & other institutions.

Does anyone think there will be a tsunami of angry, betrayed people? Or will they STILL not hear and see the truth?
I know Trump fans won't be happy with this one, but you guys need to realize that no one is here to save you. Not even the ones you have to root for for some unknown reason.
