Transcript

00:00:00.000 I saw the substack being shared by a number of con ink people and I realized, man, this is either intensely dishonest or we're dealing with morons.
00:00:11.400 Well, take your pick. Racket News on their substack had a report on the censorship industrial complex and they had listed the top 50 organizations to know the citizens starter kit to understanding the new global information cartel.
00:00:28.280 It's written by Susan Schmidt, Andrew Lowenthal, Tom Wyatt, Technofog, and four others.
00:00:34.480 So this was an introduction by Matt Taibbi, right? So they've done some good things in regards to the censorship industrial complex.
00:00:41.940 The Twitter files were coming out. That's something, you know, Elon did, right? That was interesting.
00:00:45.860 By the way, that's another reason we didn't mention before why maybe he was blackmailed to some kind of capacity to get this new shitlib CEO of Twitter.
00:00:54.000 But regardless, check out this graph here. I can pull it up in full screen here.
00:00:58.280 And we can spend a little bit quickly looking at it.
00:01:00.660 Now, it's of course that there are some groups mentioned here that you should definitely know about and some of them are good.
00:01:05.580 But as I was looking around at these 50 organizations, something struck me and it was very fascinating, right?
00:01:12.000 Of course, they have the big tech companies. Everyone knows that. That's the usual suspects, right?
00:01:16.440 Google, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, YouTube, etc. LinkedIn, which of course started by the pedophile we just talked about.
00:01:23.240 They have various NGOs. They have fact checkers. They have think tanks, for-profit groups. They have academic initiatives and, of course, government and foundations as well.
00:01:33.840 But guess what? As I was looking around on this, it's not that some of them are inaccurate. It's a conspiracy by omission.
00:01:40.120 ADL? SPLC?
00:01:41.240 Exactly. How can these people with a straight face not list the ADL, the SPLC?
00:01:47.600 Huge ones. Huge. Those were the ones behind our banning and censorship.
00:01:52.680 Of course, who's telling these government agencies what to do? We literally have footage of the FBI director.
00:01:59.520 Yeah, they openly talk about that.
00:02:01.180 What's his name again? Christopher Wray, sitting with Jonathan Greenblatt, thanking him for basically providing the information of what groups to target.
00:02:10.400 The one dot that maybe one of your members has is brought forward with the one dot that we might have so that we can disrupt the attack.
00:02:20.300 So the eyes and ears part of it is huge.
00:02:22.580 Well, I know many of us, you know, we look at the IMA bombing in Argentina or even the bombing in Oklahoma City.
00:02:28.940 We worry about this lone threat, whether it's Iranian sleeper agents or domestic extremists.
00:02:34.760 And when we've had so many issues on a day-to-day basis, it is the FBI that works directly with the ADL every day.
00:02:43.080 And we could not do our job, if you will, of fighting anti-Semitism without them doing their job of protecting our community.
00:02:50.320 So, Director Wray, we are we are in your we really, really have the deepest appreciation for you and all of your professionals.
00:02:57.160 Thank you for the work that you do.
00:02:58.720 Thank you, Jonathan. Thank you for what you do.
00:03:01.560 Oh, yeah. And YouTube, Susan Wojcicki talking about meeting with, you know, Greenblatt as well.
00:03:07.340 Oh, yeah.
00:03:07.600 And like, I don't see they're everywhere. They're the biggest culprit.
00:03:11.400 The struggle for Wojcicki is policing the site while keeping YouTube an open platform.
00:03:18.280 You can go too far and that can become censorship.
00:03:21.300 And so we have been working really hard to figure out what's the right way to balance responsibility with freedom of speech.
00:03:29.160 We work with YouTube to get them to change their algorithms.
00:03:33.360 We work with Facebook on trying to use a redirect method.
00:03:36.920 When you talk about globalists, another phrase used by right wing extremists.
00:03:42.060 We work with Google on using AI to try to interrupt cyber hate before it happens.
00:03:47.620 But the private sector is not legally beholden to the First Amendment.
00:03:52.480 You're not operating under some freedom of speech mandate.
00:03:56.440 You get to pick.
00:03:57.280 We do, but we think there's a lot of benefit from being able to hear from groups and underrepresented groups that otherwise we never would have heard from.
00:04:05.840 Liar!
00:04:06.580 Why is not Apple here, by the way, under big tech?
00:04:08.900 Apple censors like crazy.
00:04:10.340 He received an ADL award recently, right?
00:04:13.100 The Tim Apple, Tim Cook, you know, going, you know, was it groveling to the ADL?
00:04:20.280 Apple was the first company to remove Alex Jones's hateful, anti-government, conspiratorial rants from their platform.
00:04:34.740 We've seen the terror of white supremacy.
00:04:37.880 It's a moral issue.
00:04:39.540 Apple then donated money to help ADL fight hate.
00:04:44.920 Tim Cook with ADL's first Courage Against Hate award.
00:04:48.460 Tim, we are grateful for your leadership.
00:04:51.180 Then we have a duty to heal the world.
00:04:53.400 What we at Apple do to shape this better future.
00:04:57.340 And so we try to stay rooted and to keep our devices connected to the humanity that makes us, us.
00:05:07.380 One of the most important is how we honor a teaching that can be found in Judaism.
00:05:13.760 This mandate moves us to speak up for immigrants and for those who seek opportunity in the United States.
00:05:22.640 But because our own humanity commands us to welcome those who need welcome,
00:05:29.400 it moves us to speak up for the LGBTQ community.
00:05:33.820 That's why we only have one message for those who seek to push hate, division, and violence.
00:05:42.680 You have no place on our platforms.
00:05:49.300 You have no home here.
00:05:52.020 From the earliest days of iTunes to Apple Music today,
00:05:56.120 we have always prohibited music with a message of white supremacy.
00:06:00.280 And as we showed this year, we won't give a platform to violent conspiracy theorists on the App Store.
00:06:15.900 Because it's the right thing to do.
00:06:21.360 Thank you so much for this award.
00:06:23.680 We are inspired by your legacy.
00:06:26.120 We are honored to be your partners.
00:06:29.780 And we will never stop working to drive out fear with the hope of a better tomorrow.
00:06:36.940 Thank you very much.
00:06:38.280 Thank you.
00:06:40.160 Thank you.
00:06:40.860 This Jewish interest group, which is like far left when it comes to America,
00:06:44.880 and then they're staunchly, you know, hard right for Israel.
00:06:49.180 It's incredible.
00:06:50.200 Someone needs to take this work and expand on it and add all those other ones.
00:06:54.480 Exactly, right.
00:06:55.300 So again, okay, maybe it's a good start.
00:06:57.900 But I couldn't help feeling like, this is a deflection here.
00:07:01.260 How could you miss the obvious?
00:07:02.920 It's very much a deflection.
00:07:04.600 And there are some others, but that's some of the big ones that I would include, right?
00:07:08.600 No, this is shameful.
00:07:10.240 Racket News needs to be partially shamed for this,
00:07:13.620 and they need to be bullied into including ADL and SPLC on this list.
00:07:18.380 Shame on you guys.
