Twitter Files author lifts lid on FBI’s ‘chilling’ censorship efforts

Twitter Files author Michael Shellenberger lifts the lid on his “chilling" discovery of government agencies and the FBI’s attempts to censor people and debates on social media.
“That was really the beginning of starting to understand that there was a vast apparatus of government agencies around the world - not just the United States - thinktanks, some of them associated with universities, and other groups that were putting pressure on social media platforms to engage in outright censorship of people for just having different views,” he told Sky News Australia.

This is exactly why the FBI needs to be disbanded

I am disgusted

[@avidcollector869]

where there is power over others, there is always abuse of power over others.

Pray for our country

[@tsk1xhobezx711]

We need this but into Australian media!

[@kerravon4159]

Forget a Voice referendum, Australia *BADLY* needs a referendum to enshrine free speech in our constitution as per America's first amendment.

[@shirleybrooks1599]

Yes, we do have a First Amendment guaranteeing the right to free speech here in the United States. Unfortunately, there are some here, primarily radical, left wing, woke Academia and Democrats who think the right to free speech only applies to those who agree with them. Our country needs prayers. Hopefully you will fare much better in Australia.

There was actually a time when citizens gladly cooperated with the former "fbi".

If Twitter is now called X Then doesn't that make the Twitter files the real X files? Sometimes I get the feeling like Elon is just messing with everybody.

[@danspencer4235]

In other words, the legal structure in the US is a joke. Laws are enforced based only on how much power you represent.

[@concretedragon3113]

It's time to treat these three letter agencies the same way they treat us. We own them it's our right

[@blee30]

There should be NO fact checkers AT ALL!! No one should stop any speech, even lies. Public discourse and discussing issues allows people to believe what they choose, and look for facts and evidence. Fact checking is NOT anyone's job. It's a govt cover for censorship

[@oximoronin]

Nobody fact checked the nazis and bolsheviks. I guess that went well.

[@blee30]

@@oximoronin that was propaganda, much like our govt is doing now, but unfortunately they didn't have little computers in their hands every day to check facts. Many sites don't provide facts, but propaganda like I said, so it's up to the person what to believe. Long ago, that was called using common sense.

Like this platform is any better.

[@WvlfDarkfire]

Like they try to do with your news channel. Are they successful? Lol

[@SapienSpace]

Best action: quit the social industrial complex, delete accounts, and start meeting people in person again! Aside from Orwellian governments, with deep fake AI, this is only going to get worse, so meet in person!

A very uncommon United States journalist. Unfortunately.

Defund the fbi.

Going to Heaven is easy! We have all sinned against God and therefore need to be saved from hell. Believe that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on the cross for your sins, was buried, and rose again in order to have your sins forgiven by God. Salvation (Going to Heaven) is by faith alone in Jesus Christ without any of our good deeds. The Bible says “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9). In conclusion, you cannot be saved by good deeds. In order to go to Heaven, all you must do is believe that Jesus paid for all of your sins for you. Do you believe you are saved by grace & promised heaven because Jesus died for you? Yes__ No__.
