Twitter intensified its war against free speech during the New Year’s weekend by censoring U.S. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who supposedly posted “false” information about the harm COVID vaccines have done.
Twitter wiped Greene’s personal account after a Tweet that supposedly violated the “Twitter Rules,” which the leftist outfit selectively enforces against conservatives.
The attempt to censor the outspoken Georgian won’t accomplish much. Greene has almost a half-million followers on the GAB free-speech platform.
Greene Banished
The New York Times offered this biased account of Twitter’s attack on Greene:
Twitter suspended Ms. Greene’s account after she tweeted on Saturday, falsely, about “extremely high amounts of Covid vaccine deaths.” She included a misleading chart that pulled information from a government database of unverified raw data called the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, or VAERS, a decades-old system that relies on self-reported cases from patients and health care providers.
Twitter said that Ms. Greene had a fifth “strike,” which meant that her account will not be restored. The company had issued her a fourth strike in August after she falsely posted that the vaccines were “failing.” Ms. Greene was given a third strike less than a month before that when she had tweeted that Covid-19 was not dangerous and that vaccines should not be mandated.
Remarkably, the Times claimed that “there is currently no evidence of widespread major side effects from the coronavirus vaccines” and claimed that only the Johnson & Johnson vaccine is problematic because it causes blood clots.
In fact, the latest data from VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, show significant problems with the vaccines.
It reports more than 700,000 post-vaccination adverse events, including almost 10,000 deaths. Though a post-vaccine adverse event does not mean the vaccine caused that event, the number reported to VAERS certainly constitutes evidence that something is wrong with vaccines.
And as The New American reported in mid-December, 183 athletes had died after receiving a virus vaccine, and the virus had slammed 97 percent vaxxed Cornell University.
As well, pioneering mRNA scientist Dr. Robert Malone tweeted data from Pfizer that showed its “inoculations cause more illness than they prevent,” as the Daily Mail reported. He also tweeted a study that showed “93 percent of people who died after being vaccinated were killed by the vaccine.” Those unwelcome revelations inspired Twitter to kill his account.
Those facts aside, Greene’s personal account is gone; her congressional account remains because that account, the Times reported, has not violated Twitter’s “rules.”
“This is beyond censorship of speech,” Greene wrote on GAB:
I’m an elected Member of Congress representing over 700,000 US tax paying citizens and I represent their voices, values, defend their freedoms, and protect the Constitution.
But apparently they too think the CDC managed #VAERS system on our own government websites are misinformation.
And to date there has been ZERO investigation into reported Covid deaths from government mandated #covid vaccines.
Who appointed Twitter and Facebook to be the authorities of information and misinformation?
On Facebook, Greene noted Big Tech’s obvious double-standard in applying its “rules.”
“Maxine Waters can go to the streets and threaten violence on Twitter, Kamala and Ilhan can bail out Black Lives Matter terrorists on Twitter, CNN and the rest of the Democrat Propaganda Media can spread Russia collusion lies, and just yesterday the Chief spokesman for terrorist IRGC can tweet mourning Soleimani, but I get suspended for tweeting VAERS statistics,” she wrote:
Twitter is an enemy to America and can’t handle the truth.
That’s fine, I’ll show America we don’t need them and it’s time to defeat our enemies. They can’t successfully complete a Communist revolution when people tell the truth.
Trump Banned
It was only a matter of time before Twitter jettisoned Greene. The leftist outfit permanently banned President Trump on January 8 of last year after the mostly peaceful protest at the U.S. Capitol.
Trump’s crime was two tweets:
- The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, AMERICA FIRST, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will have a GIANT VOICE long into the future. They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!
- To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th.
Twitter falsely claimed the two tweets violated the “Twitter rules” against the “glorification of violence.”
“These two Tweets must be read in the context of broader events in the country and the ways in which the President’s statements can be mobilized by different audiences, including to incite violence, as well as in the context of the pattern of behavior from this account in recent weeks,” the leftist outfit claimed.
During that protest, a police officer, without warning, shot to death a pro-Trump Air Force veteran, Ashli Babbitt.
