Poland Just Stopped Big Tech Censorship in Its Tracks With Single Shot: We Can Do the Same
If there is no violation of Polish law, social media companies cannot remove content or block accounts, according to the draft of the “Act for the Freedom to Express One’s Views and Obtain and Disseminate Information on the Internet.”

It’s not against the law to be stupid.

Odd way to begin an article/op-ed about the pervasiveness of politically-predisposed censorship on Jack Dorsey’s Twitter, Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook, and on a stealthier but just as insidious basis, Sundar Pichai’s Google, among other social media platforms.

Not at all.

Now that we’ve settled that, let’s cut to the bottom line:

If you’re (third-person, of course) stupid enough to believe everything you read or see on the Internet, you’re stupid enough to suffer the consequences of having read or seen it.

While I fully understand that the stupid actions — or inactions — of stupid people can affect other people — smart, stupid, or somewhere in the middle — so what? Meaning, are we not also affected on a daily basis by the actions or inactions of people who are not stupid, yet make stupid or at the very least unwise decisions? Of course we are. Guess what? It’s called “life.” It’s why the bumper sticker “stuff happens,” or something like that exists.

Seems to me, it all works out. To beat a thoroughly beaten and thoroughly dead horse, it is what it is. Besides, and here’s the real question — perhaps the most critical question of all, as we look ahead to future presidential elections, and even more important issues:

Why is it the job of Jack Dorsey, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, and other left-wing Big Tech gurus to decide what Americans see or don’t see?

And here’s an even more important question: As long as the content is legal?

Watch:

Jack’s Note: This so called ‘deal’ is, as far as I understand, still in great peril due to the fact that ALL the EU nations must ratify it before it becomes law. I see no chance that will ever happen.
