MSNBC insists they aren't an echo chamber in new promo
Self-censoring or selecting news sources which insulate from alternative points of view is a form of thought control which is voluntary. That's what I like about RT. It provides news from an outside perspective.

Twitter selectively applies it's policies so that conservatives are censored and liberals get a free pass.

The Acceleration of Censorship in America
All Russia Today does is expose the lies told by the corporate media here in the USA.
Their solution has been to brand the content of the Russian television network, RT, as “propaganda” since it presents facts and viewpoints that most Americans have been kept from hearing.

Efforts to combat fake news aren’t working, Facebook admits
It sounds to me like Facebook is looking for more effective ways of suppressing messages which counter its political agenda, while at the same time avoiding a backlash and thereby inadvertently promoting the messages they want to suppress. Quite a predicament for Facebook. It might be better if they just took a hands off approach and just let users decide for themselves what they want to view! What a concept!

Tucker Carlson and Jordan Peterson REACT to the VIRAL Cathy Newman Interview
Watch the whole thing, but the last minute contains this quote:
Someone who is trying to do good should be dangerous. Otherwise there is no force with you. There's nothing to contend with. We have this strange idea, which is especially foisted upon young men, that the pathway to virtue is through weakness and harmlessness and that's just simply not true. That's the pathway to uselessness and resentment. You should be able to be a monster and then not be one.

The only thing I would add at the end is "UNLESS THE SITUATION DEMANDS IT."

Behind the Google-Southern Poverty Law Center relationship
Hiring a hate group to censor hateful material? Google has a very one-sided view of the world. What is their company motto again? Oh, yes, I believe it is "Don't be evil." Isn't censorship and prohibiting the free expression of ideas the very essence of evil?

Like James Damore pointed out, GOOGLE IS AN ECHO CHAMBER. If you're a person with a conservative point of view, you'd better keep your ideas to yourself if you work for Google. For that matter, even a fairly middle of the road person would probably tend to self-censor in hopes of not offending any of the libtard extremists running things there. They're so one-sided that they have no clue how incredibly one-sided they are. I suppose that's pretty much the definition of an echo chamber and everything Google does proves that Damore was right.

YouTube's Censorship is Out of Control
The thought police are purging content that doesn't support Google's political agenda and world view.

Who is behind social media censorship?
This is becoming an increasingly worrisome situation.
