Barack Obama and Hillary are pushing for government censorship. To hell with individual rights and the Constitution.
In a speech at Stanford, Obama called for more government oversight over the Big Tech industry that is already trampling all over Americans’ rights to free speech. Obama was a big part of this censorship. The New York Times reported:
Former President Barack Obama on Thursday called for greater regulatory oversight of the country’s social media giants, saying their power to curate the information that people consume has “turbocharged” political polarization and threatened the pillars of democracy across the globe.
Weighing in on the debate over how to address the spread of disinformation, he said the companies needed to subject their proprietary algorithms to the same kind of regulatory oversight that ensured the safety of cars, food and other consumer products.
He then went on to use a lie to make his point:
Mr. Obama spoke at a conference organized by Stanford’s Cyber Policy Center, which is dedicated to the challenges the digital world has created for democracy in the United States and beyond. He cited his own effective use of social media as a candidate but also his frustration with how Russia’s president, Vladimir V. Putin, used social media to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
After the 2016 Election, Big Tech totally censored conservative opinions. Project Veritas confirmed Facebook’s bias and actions. Most Americans hate the communist policies and attitudes that Obama portrays and that Big Tech uses against Americans.
