      Missed it by this much.

      The point was that the government literally used social media sites to censor information that they didn’t like. These sites (and news networks) were made to report that it was made up, misinformation, didn’t exist, a far right conspiracy theory. Turns out it was very real.

          Are there still people denying that twitter/facebook/etc weren’t instructed to censor certain stories leading up to the last US election (hunter laptop), while leaving and even promoting actual misinformation (russia)?
