Social media networks versus democracy

Ophir Dayan commented in Israel Hayom on the censorious reaction of social networks like Twitter to the NY Post's discovery of Hunter Biden's corrupt activities:
These revelations, which cast a dark shadow over the credibility of Biden and strengthen the suspicions of corruption and misuse of power in order to promote his son's business were supposed to shake the election and cause an earthquake. But it seems that social media networks have taken upon themselves a historic role: to keep Joe Biden safe until the election.

Using the somewhat weak excuse that the article used a hacked email server (in fact, Hunter's computer was apparently left in a lab and never picked up), Twitter decided to censor the article, freeze the Twitter accounts of the White House spokesperson and of the New York Post, and even lock the account of the Trump campaign.

No one is surprised that the liberal American media is working for Biden and his running mate Harris
. No embarrassing statement of theirs or revelations on corruption will change the strategic decision of the mainstream media to put the Democratic candidate in the White House. What's bothersome is the possibility that the social networks, possibly the most influential media giants of our time, are meddling in elections and that Silicon Valley is using its heavy artillery against the Right and the Conservative camp – in the US, and the rest of the world.
It's very troubling indeed.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
