You know it’s over the top when even a Democrat criticizes the censorship:

Gabbard tweeted a video clip from a speech former President Barack Obama gave at Stanford University last week along with the caption:

Biden is just a front man. Obama, April 21: social media censors ‘don’t go far enough,’ so the government needs to step in to do the job. Six days later, Homeland Security rolls out the ‘Ministry of Truth’ (aka Disinformation Governance Board).”

In his speech, Biden called upon the government to take responsibility in aiding giant tech companies to police information more strictly. He also praised the tech companies for the bias policing they have already done.

Now the good news is that almost all the big tech platforms now acknowledge some responsibility for content on their platforms, and they’re investing in a large team of people to monitor it,” Obama said.
