Looking past the endless barrage of yellow journalism in the traditional press, let's take a close look at Twitter. Last year, Twitter manually added tags to accounts deemed "foreign state media". Mysteriously, accounts like Radio Free Asia and Radio Free Europe, which are CIA cutouts directly funded by the US government, do not get such tags [1]. Look up RT, CGTN, etc for examples of this tag in action. Also last year, independent journalists dropped a bombshell report [2] on leaked documents detailing an anti-Russian disinformation operation that involves Reuters, BBC, and other "independent" news media groups. If you try to post [2] on Twitter, your post will be permanently marked with a visual warning banner about "hacked materials". AFAIK it is currently the only link that generates this response from Twitter. Ironically, this virtually guarantees its credibility, rather than simply dismissing it to the trash heap of crazy Qanon theories, etc. Finally, over the past few years Twitter has been officially releasing information on "disinformation" operations that occur on Twitter. Most recently, Twitter endorsed a report from the """independent""" (read: entirely funded by weapons manufacturers and Western governments) think tank ASPI which alleged to uncover a massive Chinese disinformation operation. I won't comment on the veracity of that report and encourage you to read it yourself and judge the quality of their "scientific" method. Regardless, it shows a clear alliance between Twitter and these special interests in the intelligence community. The related blog post from Twitter [3] is more worrying, because it suggests that your account can be removed if it engages at all with what is deemed to be a "disinformation campaign". Which might include liking or retweeting an apolitical tweet from an account marked "foreign state media", etc. [1] - https://twitter.com/RadioFreeAsia?s=20 https://twitter.com/RadioFreeAsia?s=20 [2] - https://thegrayzone.com/2021/02/20/reuters-bbc-uk-foreign-office-russian-media/ https://thegrayzone.com/2021/02/20/reuters-bbc-uk-foreign-of...
