IT would be hard to find a better example of how the new elites act as the gatekeepers of the truth than to look at how Facebook attempts to control public debate.
Last week I had a notice sent to my Facebook account explaining, “We have removed a post with false information about Covid-19”. Apparently, Facebook don’t want, “false information that can cause physical harm” littering their site. This includes, “information that recognized health organizations say could mislead people”.
I tried to find out what the post was that I had commented on but of course it’s gone, so I have no idea what it was. What made this notice all the more peculiar was that, “The false information appeared in a photo”. I’ve wracked my brain to try and think about what this could be and how a photograph could be so dangerous. I’ve no idea.
