DISINFO: Big Tech and the neo-liberal establishment do not value democratic principles
SUMMARY
Under the pretext of fighting extremist content on social media, the Big Tech and the neo-liberal establishment seek to undermine any opportunity to counter their dominance on social media. The democratic principle of freedom of speech is no longer their value.
RESPONSE
Recurrent pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about global elites secretly ruling the world. This narrative aims to question the legitimacy of democracy and Western institutions.
Several private social media platforms have acted against violations of the terms of use, when groups and individuals have called for violence and riots.
See other examples of these disinformation narratives, such as claims that the result of the US 2020 election doesn’t matter because the real ruler is the Deep State, which will kill any US president that confronts it and is moving the country towards war with Iran and Russia; that Hillary Clinton published the Deep State strategy for the world; or that Covid-19 vaccines will lead to full spectrum dominance.
