WH in touch with Big Tech, has been ‘flagging’ problematic COVID posts

Psaki says the White House has been flagging "problematic posts" on Facebook they believe are misinformation about Wuhan coronavirus. Reminder: Fauci worked with Facebook to ban the lab leak theory, which is factual, for more than a year.

The Biden administration is telling Facebook which posts it regards as "problematic" so that Facebook can remove them.
This is the union of corporate and state power — one of the classic hallmarks of fascism — that the people who spent 5 years babbling about fascism support. LINK

Greenwald is a national treasure. One of the last true journalists.

How does this not make Facebook a state actor?

Do people not realize that FB has always been a state institution? It was developed by Pentagon. That isn't a conspiracy, it happened. Darpa developed lifelog and then ended it the same day Zuckerberg opened Facebook. Same exact day Feb 04, 2004.

She pretty much just proved Trump’s case against big tech

Facts!
Now do Twitter.

The internet itself has always been a government project.
Don't kid yourself, this is nothing new. The only way out of this is a true "Internet 2.0" decentralized internet, much like the premise of the final season of Silicon Valley.
Starlink, anyone?

Straight up censorship

So the government is telling Facebook what to do. Hmm. Can’t think of how this is ethical no matter the intentions.

“Problematic”, as in noting that people who got the goddamn vaccine are still coming down with COVID and potentially other complications as well?

For those of you wondering, this type of public-driven private enterprise is the textbook definition of fascism. This is why it is a step between communism and capitalism.
