The Missouri v Biden case exposed the Censorship Industrial Complex,
BUT “We The People” can only be silenced when we comply with the censors.
In a shocking and eye-opening interview with Tucker Carlson, Mike Benz (Foundation for Freedom Online) analyzed the most important issue of our time: censorship. America’s Frontline Doctors has been fighting censorship since 2020. The Censorship Industrial Complex (CIC) is a total inversion of the idea of democracy itself. Under the CIC, the will of the voters is replaced by the authority of “democratic” institutions. In other words, elite establishments who have created the CIC, use it to subvert democracy in the name of protecting it. These self-proclaimed “holy” institutions are threatened by opposing voices like AFLDS and all those refusing to comply with their propaganda.
The fundamental nature of war has changed. When you can control the media and social media ecosystems that ultimately control elections, the ability to win through military conflict is no longer necessary. NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) used tanks for 70 years, but now their weapon of choice is conducting organized political influence operations over social media.
The Censorship Industrial Complex is made up of four key pillars. These are Censorship, Propaganda, Forced Compliance, and Unpunished Defamation. In order to fully understand how the CIC operates and how to defeat it, we must first understand the functions of each pillar.
The Weaponization of Censorship
As broken down in Dr. Gold’s recent speech at the International Crisis Summit, the quickest definitive summary of the CIC in action is found in Missouri v Biden (now Murthy v Missouri). This case was heard by SCOTUS on March 18. Dr. Gold and AFLDS, along with several freedom organizations and doctors filed amicus briefs in support of the two state attorney generals who found overwhelming factual evidence of government censorship including weekly emails, phone calls, and meetings from multiple federal agencies to all the social media companies. In total, 16 states on the side of free speech have joined in their support for the affirmance of the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals Ruling. AFLDS is asking the High Court to permanently ban our government from interfering and colluding with Big Tech companies to suppress free speech, especially in the social media arena.
At first, the government started out with pre-rollout calls to all the social media companies. They argued with Facebook and Twitter over their own policies in order to illegally outsource censorship to private companies. These requests from the government very rapidly escalated to demands, and then to financial threats for those that didn’t comply. Weak resistance soon became complete compliance.
Our federal government required social media companies to provide periodic COVID-19 reports, product changes, and changes to their algorithms in order to prevent “misinformation” from going viral. Social media companies would then flag accounts and posts to reduce reach, suspending or deplatforming those speaking out against the government-approved narrative. A key example of this egregious censorship is from July 2020 when the AFLDS viral White Coat Summit received 20 million views in 8 hours before being taken down from all social media platforms. Along with AFLDS, some of the biggest targets of censorship included Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, among others.
The level of weaponized censorship that exists today is alarming and unlike anything that we have ever seen before in this country. There are now established communication pathways between government agencies and Big Tech companies. What first started out with government agencies censoring unapproved COVID-19 narratives soon expanded to targeting topics such as gender-affirming mutilation, climate change, and election integrity. There is no limit to the damage that the Censorship Industrial Complex can inflict on America and across the globe.
Silence is Not an Option
America’s Frontline Doctors, much like the courageous attorney generals and fellow freedom advocates standing up to the Biden Administration, recognize that the Censorship Industrial Complex can only be empowered through our compliance. Each and every voice silenced pushes our great Nation one step closer to tyranny and the total erosion of free speech. We cannot and must not turn a blind eye to the corruption brought to light through the Murthy v Missouri case. Now is not the time to be silent. The loudest voices for freedom must make their voices heard.
With the outcome of Murthy v Missouri now firmly in the hands of the Supreme Court, we must recognize that this pivotal moment for free speech was only made possible by those who refused to back down to tyrants.
Stay tuned - We will keep you updated on the status of Murthy v Missouri and continue to expose the tyranny of the Censorship Industrial Complex.
