Anything that is a threat to the information hegemony of these establishment power centers must be discredited or destroy:
Hence, the internet must be censored of all dissent; the #TwitterFiles are a nothing burger you must ignore; independent media is "far-right" fascism, etc.

I remember arguing with my college friends on FB (who are mostly NYC liberals), and reminding them that UC Berkeley was once the home of the free speech movement back in the 60s, and here we are today, where they won't let him speak. They didn't GAF. They were glad he was shut down.
But, even before that, I remember many comedians were already canceling college engagements because the students were getting too sensitive to the things they were saying.
So when exactly did liberals completely give up on free speech? Was it the millennial generation that got super sensitive from college brainwashing? Was it really Gen X liberals, who also seem to be in full support of censorship?

Michael Shellenberger's opening statement on the Twitter Files and the censorship industrial complex:
"The censorship industrial complex combines established methods of psychological manipulation some developed by the US military during the global war on terror, with highly sophisticated tools from computer science, including artificial intelligence. The complex's leaders are driven by their fear that the internet and social media platforms empower populist, alternative, fringe personalities and views which they regard destabilizing."

BREAKING: Twitter and Stanford accused of running a disinformation campaign to hide the truth about vaccines
Matt Taibbi (@mtaibbi): "We found just yesterday a tweet from the Virality Project from
@Stanford, which is partnered with a number of government agencies and @twitter, where they talked explicitly about that they felt encouraged hesitancy. [...] They believe that ordinary people can't handle difficult truths, so they think that they need minders to separate out things that are controversial and difficult for them."
Michael Shellenberger (@ShellenbergerMD): "This is very disturbing because what they are doing when they're putting labels on [the tweets] is that It's a form of censorship but it's also a disinformation campaign."
"This is East Germany, Stasi kind of behavior."
Michael Shellenberger on the censorship-industrial complex's Orwellian mission creep:
"You go from fighting ISIS recruiting, then to Russian disinformation, and now they are in a situation where they want to censor true information, accurate facts, because they are worried that people might behave in ways that they don't want them to. That involves mindreading at a grossly inappropriate level."

The IRS sent an agent to Matt Taibbi's house on the SAME DAY he testified to Congress.
Democrats are denouncing the House GOP investigation into the weaponization of government, but maybe that’s because Republicans are getting somewhere. That includes new evidence that the Internal Revenue Service may be targeting a journalist who testified before the weaponization committee.
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan sent a letter Monday to IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen seeking an explanation for why journalist Matt Taibbi received an unannounced home visit from an IRS agent. We’ve seen the letter, and both the circumstances and timing of the IRS focus on this journalist raise serious questions.
Mr. Taibbi has provoked the ire of Democrats and other journalists for his role in researching Twitter records and then releasing internal communications from the social-media giant that expose its censorship and its contacts with government officials. This effort has already inspired government bullying, with Chair Lina Khan’s Federal Trade Commission targeting new Twitter owner Elon Musk and demanding the company “identify all journalists” granted access to the Twitter files.
Now Mr. Taibbi has told Mr. Jordan’s committee that an IRS agent showed up at his personal residence in New Jersey on March 9. That happens to be the same day Mr. Taibbi testified before the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government about what he learned about Twitter. The taxman left a note instructing Mr. Taibbi to call the IRS four days later. Mr. Taibbi was told in a call with the agent that both his 2018 and 2021 tax returns had been rejected owing to concerns over identity theft.
Mr. Taibbi has provided the committee with documentation showing his 2018 return had been electronically accepted, and he says the IRS never notified him or his accountants of a problem after he filed that 2018 return more than four-and-a-half years ago.
He says the IRS initially rejected his 2021 return, which he later refiled, and it was rejected again—even though Mr. Taibbi says his accountants refiled it with an IRS-provided pin number. Mr. Taibbi notes that in neither case was the issue “monetary,” and that the IRS owes him a “considerable” sum.
The bigger question is when did the IRS start to dispatch agents for surprise house calls? Typically when the IRS challenges some part of a tax return, it sends a dunning letter. Or it might seek more information from the taxpayer or tax preparer. If the IRS wants to audit a return, it schedules a meeting at the agent’s office. It doesn’t drop by unannounced.
The curious timing of this visit, on the heels of the FTC demand that Twitter turn over names of journalists, raises questions about potential intimidation, and Mr. Jordan is right to want to see documents and communications relating to the Taibbi visit.
The fear of many Americans is that, flush with its new $80 billion in funding from Congress, the IRS will unleash its fearsome power against political opponents. Mr. Taibbi deserves to know why the agency decided to pursue him with a very strange house call.
