Or he could be attempting to do damage control for the regime by duping people who have reason to distrust the regime into believing Twitter is now more trustworthy. There are many other possibilities, too, and it\u2019s impossible for outsiders to know which is true.<\/p>\n<p>After all, the Twitter Files haven\u2019t so far released <em>that <\/em>much new information. We already knew Big Tech was colluding with federal officials to deny Americans free speech and therefore self-government. We already knew the internet\u2019s dominant infrastructure is completely rigged.

This <a href=\"https:\/\/narnia.fandom.com\/wiki\/The_Silver_Chair\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wormhole <\/a>likely goes very deep, and even what we\u2019re seeing now, quite close to the surface, is alarming and indicative enough. Perhaps the most important outcome of these releases is the broadening recognition that Twitter, Facebook, Google, et al., are part of government propaganda operations.<\/p>\n<p>This is very likely why we\u2019ve been hearing increasing alarms about \u201cprotecting democracy.\u201d The existence and prevalence of this chant online is itself a strong indicator that democracy, or the concept of self-rule through free and fair elections, as the basic bloke thinks of it, doesn\u2019t really exist anymore. At least, that\u2019s certainly the case if Big Tech, in collusion with unelected officials who are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fedsmith.com\/2021\/02\/12\/political-donations-and-federal-employees\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">almost as far-left<\/a> as Twitter\u2019s employees, selects what information voters may receive.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Twitter censorship directly or indirectly is what led to the horrendously regressive COVID policies, Biden&#8217;s presidential victory, and why we got the record inflation, energy, crime, illegal immigration and Fentanyl crises.<br \/>We are here today because of what Twitter did.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rising serpent \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 (@rising_serpent) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/rising_serpent\/status\/1602486783530487811?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 13, 2022<\/a>  <\/p>\n<p>This Twitter-capade reveals further details about Big Tech\u2019s function as an arm of U.S. \u201cnational security\u201d and \u201cintelligence\u201d agencies.
