The Death Of Free Speech: Twitter Ramps Up Censorship Of 'Hate Facts'

Twitter is banning conservatives and others who don't subscribe to the leftist mentality plaguing social media.  Using the excuse that people are posting "hate facts," the social media outlet is just shutting down accounts that post any truth that doesn't fare well for the liberal agenda.

By now, it should be well understood that the terms "hate facts" and "hate speech" are nothing more than buzzwords used by the left as an excuse to suppress the speech of those with which they disagree.  This is becoming more and more apparent as we devolve quickly toward a fully totalitarian system too.

Breitbart reported that the most high-profile individual to be banned on this basis was Islam critic Tommy Robinson, who received a permanent ban from Twitter after he posted statistics showing that Muslims are vastly overrepresented in child grooming gangs in the U.K. Robinson is now taking Twitter to court to prove that "facts are now treated as hate."

The censorship of British accounts, including those of the Britain First team, is tied to increasing pressure from European governments for social media platforms to censor their users. Robinson claims that 10,000 Twitter accounts have been closed at the request of the U.K. government over alleged "hate."

Facebook has banned the conservative political group Britain First for breaking its rules that prohibit "hate speech" on the social media platform.  Facebook said they had "repeatedly posted content designed to incite animosity and hatred against minority groups."

Britain First described itself as "a patriotic resistance and 'frontline' for our long-suffering people" that will "restore Christianity as the bedrock" of national life and put British workers first. -SHTFPlan

There are now concerns that the accounts of American users are also being shut down at the request of European governments. Nick Monroe, an independent journalist based in America, says he was banned from the platform after he began an investigation of Tell MAMA, an "anti-Islamophobia" organization based in the United Kingdom. Monroe's account was eventually restored without explanation only after he publicized his story, and Breitbart contacted Twitter for comments. 

Even when European politics aren't involved, Twitter still punishes conservatives for making factual claims. Conservative twitter user Mark Samenfink had his account locked after claiming that black-on-black homicide was more common than other types of homicide and implying that Islamic terror attacks were more common than non-Islamic terror attacks.  

But these facts fly in the fact of the globalist and liberal agenda of complete government control over everyone, so Twitter is doing it's part to suppress factual information, just like Google, and Adolf Hitler in Nazi Germany.

Twitter also refuses to address attempts by left-wingers to scam its reporting system. Pro-Israel account Ozraeli Dave was hit with a temporary suspension over a tweet in which he called out an anti-semitic tweet from another user. Facebook has used this tactic as well, suspending a conservative comedian for posting violent hate messages he's received from liberals.

Williams stated that despite multiple reports drawing Facebook's attention to the screenshots and the abuse he keeps receiving, Facebook failed to act. "Facebook said that they reviewed the screenshots and said that none of the threats violated Facebook's guidelines," said Williams. -SHTFPlan

In January, Twitter employees were caught on camera boasting about discriminating against pro-Trump, conservative accounts. One employee discussed shadowbanning political accounts, a practice that Twitter has continually denied using, while another claimed that accounts that expressed an interest in "god, guns, and America" were likely to be flagged as "bots." 

Another employee, Mo Norai, explained that Twitter moderators regularly discriminated against accounts deemed to be pro-Trump.

"The things that are going to be blocked are not going to be fake stories. The things that are going to be blocked and censored, the things they are going to keep from people is going to be stuff they just don't want you to focus on or know about." - Melissa Dykes
