No, you're wrong.

YouTube isn't obligated to carry everything that ignorant dumbasses post any more than a newspaper is required to publish all of the knuckleheaded and sometimes libelous letters to the editor that are submitted. And "government control" is a far cry from "under fire." Not even close.

The government has an obligation to protect people, and social media has a responsibility to slow the spread of misinformation. Just look at the people in this thread who are of the opinion that we haven't had a worldwide pandemic and point out that only a small percentage of the entire population has died from it.

That's like saying World War 2 wasn't a big deal because only 0.3 percent of our population died in it.

We would have been done with this thing if it weren't for defiant morons who think COVID isn't a big deal and use social media to spread conspiracy theories, lies and misinformation.

Shame on you for coming down on that side.

Since you've forgotten everything you ever cared about regarding the sanctity of the fourth estate FORTY BOOOYAHHH times, I'll leave you with this thought:  every movement or belief in the history of mankind, from the reformation to abolition to the inquisition to nazis, have had one thing in common.  That thing is:  they all believed they were on the side of right.

The media was also on their side as well. When you start trading your freedoms for “safety” especially with the government supposedly providing that’s the start of a tyrannical regime. When someone says “is your freedom more important than my health?” The answer is yes. Always yes.

No they haven’t  even the science tells you otherwise. All you’re doing is parroting what CNN says and CNN is WRONG. It’s a virus that’s world wide. Just like the flu. It’s not going to magically go away. It will mutate (thank vaccines) and will reinfect people. If you have any ounce of background in virology, bacteriology, and immunology then you would know this. But you don’t. I do and so do a ton of other people who day the same exact thing I am. Only thing the vaccine will do is lessen your symptoms. You can still catch it. You can still spread it. They’ve even come out and said this.

Just because you've had a wide variety of venereal diseases doesn't make you a virology expert. Pro tip!

Should I start my own cloud platform and infrastructure as well, since Amazon won't host me?

But that's not my point, my point is the government's hand in this as stated in the article which I quoted when I first responded to you.  Are you really on page two of this discussion and you didn't realize this?  Sorry I wasted my time, carry on.

That is .002% of the population, that is hardly a pandemic.

And There is almost no chance of a health person under 55 dying from Covid.

700,000 \ 350,000,000 = .002%

Lol.  Go back to math class.  

700,000 / 350,000,000 = 0.002.  

But 0.002 = 0.2%

SEN. RON JOHNSON: We do not have an FDA-approved vaccine being administered in the U.S. The FDA played a bait and switch. They approved the Comirnaty version of Pfizer drugs. It’s not available in the U.S. They even admit it. I sent them a letter three days later going "What are you doing?" What they did is they extended the emergency use authorization for the Pfizer drug vaccine that’s available in the U.S., here that’s more than 30 days later, they haven’t asked that very simple question. If you’re saying that the Pfizer drug is the same as the Comirnaty, why didn’t you provide FDA approval on that? So, there’s not an FDA-approved drug and, of course, they announced it so they could push through these mandates so that people actually think, "Oh, OK now these things are FDA approved." They are not and again, maybe they should be, but the FDA isn’t telling me why

Because they both don't need to be. Going forward, the vaccine will be labeled "Comirnaty", as it was approved (Approvals are very specific, and include the exact labeling). Since the vaccine will no longer be labeled as "Pfizer/Biontech BNT162b2", there was no point in fully approving that. The existing stock labeled as "Pfizer/Biontech BNT162b2" can be used interchangeably. There's nothing nefarious going on here.

I agree, but the bias is clear...on both sides.

Has Ron Johnson tweeted condolences to the family of any specific covid victims that he probably never heard of until a couple hours before?

Did Twitter block such a tweet from Ron Johnson to Covid victims?  If so then your whataboutism would be relevant.

Looks like they removed the misleading tag, but I’m not sure if it was the COD specifically.  There were are few misleading comments in the obituary.  For example saying “she was of a young age and not at risk of serious illness.”   She was 37, so not exactly young.  And “lower” risk is different than “not at risk.”

Also it looks like her kids went to a Catholic preschool/school.  Catholic schools are implementing vaccine mandates for parental volunteers?  I’m pretty sure that’s not part of the mandate...

Fair enough.  The topic is about twitter labeling or not labeling things as misinformation...

Here is Johnson's pinned tweet, which he claimed would be "censored", but hasn't been despite him having a horrible misunderstanding of the data, and also basically lying by saying that the CDC doesn't track vaccinated deaths.  They could do it better, but they do it.   I guess TimmySmith should run for political office, because Johnson is using the same argument Timmy did while failing to mention that England has a far higher vaccination rate.   And even going as far as pointing out that the case fatality rate in England was low.   Yeah, it's low BECAUSE OF THE VACCINES dummy.

But yes, I agree he shouldn't be censored.
