These are the Defenders of Democracy?

R.F.K. Jr., now an independent, recently revealed in an interview with Tucker Carlson that: “Thirty-seven hours after he took the oath of office, President Biden’s White House opened up a portal for the FBI to begin to have access to social media posts on all the different social media sites.” The purpose of the move was to eradicate online “misinformation.” The FBI immediately called in other government agencies such as the CIA, DHS and IRS to assist in that effort.

Convinced, as are many former Democrats, that the “liberalism” of today is nothing like that espoused by his father and uncle in the 60s, Kennedy has been no mindless supporter of the Biden administration. Indeed his skepticism regarding the possible repercussions of the vaccine mandates of 2020 as well as the right of the government to impose them, is what led to the cancellation of his Instagram account in 2021. Followed by over a million subscribers, Kennedy insists that no government agency has produced any evidence that a single thing he said online was untrue. He was cancelled for simply disagreeing with the Biden government’s policies.

As reported by The Blaze on Aug. 27, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently admitted to a House Judiciary Committee that he regretted cowering before government pressure in stifling information on his platform which clearly effected the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. Hunter Biden’s extremely profitable affiliation with Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, was highly suspicious given that he had no expertise in that field. To many he was clearly providing access to his father who, as vice president, was attempting to profit from his political clout. Widespread media coverage of the Biden family’s apparent corruption would no doubt have effected the outcome of the 2020 election. Joe sanctimoniously said that he had nothing to do with his son’s business dealings though subsequently revealed e-mails have proven this to be a brazen lie. But even more disgusting is the fact that a force such as the FBI, which in a true Democracy ought to remain politically neutral, supported the Democrats in their insistence that the whole Hunter Biden fiasco was merely a matter of “Russian disinformation.” As incontrovertible evidence has shown this to be a fabrication, Mark Zuckerberg now seems sincerely sorry that, in banishing the Biden family scandal from Facebook, he was actually complicit in a fascistic abuse of government power!

Strange thing is that the contemporary, self-righteous, American Left, absolutely certain that it is right about everything, never ceases in its denunciations of Donald Trump as a threat to the U.S. Democracy, even as it abuses its power on a regular basis to silence anyone with whom it disagrees! How utterly devoid of self-awareness must one be to fancy oneself a liberal, while stifling all divergent opinions with the oppressiveness of a Fascist?
