Then, without so much as a warning, his account was\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/media\/418376-conservative-jesse-kelly-warns-tucker-carlson-after-twitter-ban-they-will-come\">removed permanently<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0from the platform.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">This is just the latest iteration of Twitter\u2019s Orwellian censorship program. It began by targeting white nationalists and conspiracy theorists but has quickly caught up to the more mainstream right. Meanwhile, ANTIFA accounts that promote violence and espouse anti-American terrorism are protected by the platform.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Kelly, who frequently appears as a Fox News contributor and has a talk radio show about politics that airs in Houston, appeared on \u2018Tucker Carlson Live\u2019 last night to expose the dangers of Twitter\u2019s Big Brother push:<\/span><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/89ZGedTUFX0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cWhy did Twitter take you off its platform?\u201d Carlson asked Kelly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">He responded by saying: \u201cNobody knows. Twitter kicked me off the platform because I was a mainstream voice on the right that spoke the truth. They\u2019ve given me no explanation [after] they told Congress they would give explanations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Kelly made the point that we are all Alex Jones now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cThey did exactly what I said they would do,\u201d Kelly added. \u201cThey came for Alex Jones first because he\u2019s a nut job and they wanted to see how the right would react. They got him and I knew they were coming for me. And they will come for you too.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">This blind censorship push by the wanna-be thought controllers of Silicon Valley is also impacting individuals on the Left. Meghan Murphy, a feminist writer known for expressing dissident opinions on transgenderism, has been\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.feministcurrent.com\/2018\/11\/20\/twitter-wants-shut-right-wants-join-dont-think-either\/\">punished repeatedly by the platform<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0for attempting to create a dialogue. She explained:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">After dutifully deleting the tweets in question in order to gain access to my account again, I tweeted, angrily, \u201cThis is fucking bullshit, @twitter. I\u2019m not allowed to say that men aren\u2019t women or ask questions about the notion of transgenderism at all anymore? That a multi-billion dollar company is censoring basic facts and silencing people who ask questions about this dogma is insane.\u201d This tweet went viral, racking up 20,000 likes before Twitter locked my account again on Monday morning, demanding I delete it. This time they offered no explanation at all \u2014 not even a vague accusation of \u201chateful conduct.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">A bipartisan consensus of anger is developing toward these social media corporations as they become more Draconian in their censorship measures. It has come time for President Donald Trump to secure the existence of the digital public square from sackless beta males like Twitter CEOs Jack Dorsey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/theschpiel.com\/tech\/twitter-goes-full-anti-american-by-censoring-military-hero\/\">The Schpiel<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Big tech&#8217;s big brother operation is out of control<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":170486,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[42],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-179734","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-controlling-the-news-andor-the-free-exchange-of-ideas-and-information"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179734","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=179734"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179734\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":179736,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179734\/revisions\/179736"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/170486"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=179734"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=179734"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=179734"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
