🚨Harvard surveyed 150 misinformation experts and determined they "strongly leaned toward the left of the political spectrum."

Less than 5% identified as "slightly right."
Do you recall when the terms misinformation and disinformation were introduced into public discourse?

This introduction coincides with the government's efforts to suppress populism and domestic dissent, particularly following Brexit and the election of Donald Trump.

The government's role in censoring American citizens is meticulously detailed in a thought-provoking conversation released yesterday between Tucker Carlson and Mike Benz, accessible here:

The terms misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation were popularized as justifications for government actions aimed at censoring criticism directed towards institutions such as NATO, the EU, and the Pentagon.

The advent of the internet and the promotion of free speech online played a crucial role in the rise of independent journalism, the erosion of trust in institutions and corporate media, the Brexit movement, and the election of Trump.

In response to these developments, Western governments and their institutions established an entire industry focused on combating misinformation and disinformation, effectively serving as a mechanism to censor online speech.

Mike Benz characterizes this phenomenon as akin to military rule, asserting, "It's the inversion of democracy."

The government directed its psychological tools, previously employed abroad to overthrow foreign governments, inward against its own citizens, resulting in COVID-19 and the 2020 election being the most censored events in American history.
