Macron wants more Twitter censorship to stop people saying “crazy things” about vaccines, pandemics, and war
By Cindy Harper | Reclaim The Net | December 2, 2022
French President Emmanuel Macron criticized Twitter’s owner Elon Musk for relaxing content censorship policies on the platform, arguing that content on Twitter needs more regulation. Macron made the comments in an appearance on ABC News ahead of his visit to The White House.
Macron said that democracies are under “very strong pressure” from forces like social media where users can say “crazy things about a vaccine, a pandemic, the war.”
This week, Musk said he would relax content moderation policies surrounding topics like the coronavirus.
Good Morning America and ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos said, “He’s making it worse, isn’t he?”
“I think this is a big issue,” Macron responded. “I think it deserves to be largely engaged. What I push very much for, want, is exactly the opposite – more regulation.”
Macron further argued that speech in a democracy has to be “based on respect and political order.”
The French President added: “You can demonstrate, you can have free speech, you can write what you want – but there is responsibilities and limits. The limits is you cannot go in the streets and have racist speech, or antisemitic speech, you cannot put at risk the life of someone else. Violence is never legitimate in democracy.”
Macron also criticized former US President Donald Trump, whose Twitter account was recently restored after an almost two-year ban after the January 6, 2021, riot at the US capitol.
“When in one of the biggest democracies and oldest democracies in the world, you can have a leader and supporters deciding on purpose to refuse the results because this is the one they didn’t want to see, this is just the beginning of the end of the democracy,” Macron said.
Earlier this week, regulators in the European Union warned Musk that Twitter could be banned in the region or face fines if it does not enforce content censorship policies. Musk was also warned about the arbitrary reinstatement of previously banned accounts. The new owner said he would grant “general amnesty” to banned accounts that had not broken the law or spammed.

The lies about the 1967 war are still more powerful than the truth
By Alan Hart | June 4, 2012
In retrospect it can be seen that the 1967 war, the Six Days War, was the turning point in the relationship between the Zionist state of Israel and the Jews of the world (the majority of Jews who prefer to live not in Israel but as citizens of many other nations). Until the 1967 war, and with the exception of a minority of who were politically active, most non-Israeli Jews did not have – how can I put it? – a great empathy with Zionism’s child. Israel was there and, in the sub-consciousness, a refuge of last resort; but the Jewish nationalism it represented had not generated the overtly enthusiastic support of the Jews of the world. The Jews of Israel were in their chosen place and the Jews of the world were in their chosen places. There was not, so to speak, a great feeling of togetherness. At a point David Ben-Gurion, Israel’s founding father and first prime minister, was so disillusioned by the indifference of world Jewry that he went public with his criticism – not enough Jews were coming to live in Israel.
So how and why did the 1967 war transform the relationship between the Jews of the world and Israel? … continue

Stopping the truth as it’s something that they don’t wish to hear, all was okay with the 2 injections for Covid except when the third booster given which for me was Pfizer and half hour after injection lost sight in Right Eye and Reported on NHS Yellow Report Form, having operations which at the moment doing nothing for me, the latest I am now informed can result in the patient having blood clots.

Now here is proof positive that totalitarianism is knocking at the door. Macron sounds like the wolf, lobbying to get himself appointed as the guardian of the henhouse. Notice the “sincere” words of “concern” that come out of his mouth, where he says……democracies are under “very strong pressure” from forces like social media where users can say “crazy things about a vaccine, a pandemic, the war.”
Why…every intelligent person knows that covid is a deadly infection, that the vaxxes continue to be 100% safe and effective (especially after booster #5), that the excess mortality and SADS are caused by anything EXCEPT the vaxxes, that the Ukraine war is one of honest, responsible and pure justice against the big bad Putin. And the dumb clucks (European Union) rush to cackle their agreement and approval. Macron, Trudeau, Biden, George Steponallofus and other members and lovers of the WEF have a self adopted moral right and duty to be concerned over people’s right to think and speak freely. Macron goes further …“I think this is a big issue,” Macron responded. “I think it deserves to be largely engaged. What I push very much for, want, is exactly the opposite – more regulation.” For the good of the people, to be sure. Only he and his collaborators toward the great reset really know what is correct, appropriate, wholesome, and can be ALLOWED to come out of your mouth. I believe that the animal clearly looks, sounds, quacks and swims like a duck. Why do the masses still think that it is a giraffe?

One thing happening for sure, Elon is exposing the deceivers. If Twitters majority of revenue comes from advertising, being banned in corrupt countries is not significant. The only link he is missing to bypass all the nonsense is a phone. Starlink and twitter can supply the rest

If Musk can be trusted…a big if and to be determined…..I hope that he does build his own phone and restore some freedom and independence from those who have a stranglehold on data. But I also keep the Apostle Paul’s statement in mind, namely “the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil”. Also the political science axion that “power corrupts”. Examples abound, and are mentioned daily in the news.

Yeah, trust has to be earned. Elon could be a psyop just like all social media. Most wealthy people don’t give away their money without a return. People need to realize that social media is a platform to not only store information that will be used against you but is also a warrantless search and circumvents due process of the constitution. If his efforts eliminate this then its a good thing and surely explains the governments assault

Politicians complaining when public opinion goes against them, is a sure sign that the politicians are in the wrong. There is mounting evidence that these vaccines are ‘unproven’ and dangerous, resulting in very nasty after effects, including death.
Stop relying on the totally corrupted MSM, and listen to the experts that are ringing alarm bells against these unproven and very dangerous vaccines.

Thanks raggs I saw it. I didn’t know you were talking about that one! It’s a keeper. The same producer made ‘Sacrificing Liberty’ docu series. It’s the last documentary made about the USS Liberty with the last survivors telling the story. Really well done.
