Twitter has not become the Utopia of Free Speech
In fact, Elon Musk’s Twitter is worse than it was before
No matter where you live or what your politics, we watched in March 2020 as websites like Twitter and Facebook censored and censured people based on their dissent from mainstream media and political narratives.
In doing so, these sites claimed they were banning accounts and removing posts that could “help the virus spread”...
As if that was ever a thing.
Only the stupidest totalitarian dictator, or perhaps a few Covidian idiots, really believes someone in Toronto reading the social media post of someone in Melbourne helps the virus spread.
Queue best Canadian accent while twirling blonde hair around an index finger:
“But don’cha know? If he coughed on his keyboard while writing the post and gave his computer the virus, the virus could be embedded in the post, uploaded to the social media site, then downloaded by the reader’s computer at the other end. Then he touches his computer and... OMG... Covid!”
Hey!... that was Covidian idiot... not Canadian. I like some Canadians. Stop misreading my words. Moving on...
Evidence shows:
People do not change behaviours just because they are told that it’s in their best interests…
Take the example of five things people are told to do after a heart attack - (i) stop smoking; (ii) improve diet; (iii) exercise; (iv) lose weight; and (v) limit alcohol. Engaging in these behaviours can reduce your chances of a second or subsequent heart attack and death by as much as 26%1 yet only a little over 4% of people actually do2. The Science ™ tries to blame this lack of change on the message - if only we’d personalised or customised the message better they might have saved themselves3, but it doesn’t matter what you say or whether you say it until you are blue in the face - if the person wasn’t going to change themselves, you are never going to change them. Sure, if you fudge a few figures and take credit for people who stopped smoking temporarily during the week or two they were in hospital you can claim 56% of people stopped smoking or that some engaged in more exercise (but look at the studies and see how some measured more exercise. For some, ‘I walked by myself to the kitchen to get another microwave burrito’ counts as a positive for exercise while completely ignoring the negative health impact of that same burrito?), but nothing gets away from the fact that 26% change no behaviours whatsoever and only 4% change all the behaviours. The adoption of healthy living advice by people with heart disease is known to be poor, and forever remains so4.
Most people, almost 96% of people in fact, are entirely apathetic to the message they read and will never change their most fatal behaviours. Amazingly, some actually say they would prefer to go out now with a heart attack than ‘drag on’5 - that is, persist in a life devoid of what they feel is fun and worthwhile while being forced to eat the bland so-called healthy diet of non-foods and exercise for 2-3 hours a day.
Evidence also shows that:
People become more interested in a message when they aren’t allowed to see (or know) that message…
The idea that censorship decreases access to a message6 erroneously assumes a passive and apathetic audience. However, much like the now well-known and often described Streisand Effect, censorship can backfire7 and doesn’t always act to supress the information as intended. Rather, in these situations it simply acts as a catalyst to draw greater public attention to that which the censors want hidden. This is an example of psychological reactance - a situation in which when people become aware that some information is being kept from them, they are significantly more motivated to seek out and share that information with others89. In this way that simple act to supress the information and the person who shared it tells people that there is information out there that they are not allowed to have, and motivates them to seek out and share it thus requiring further acts of suppression that generate greater interest. The unstoppable snowball rolls and gets ever-increasingly bigger.
Censorship through Fact Checking
We then watched as the mainstream media, funded by the same rich globalists created teams of Fact Checkers. Fact Checkers whose jobs were never about facts.
The head of the snake of Fact Checking is the Poynter Institute - who issue IFCN certificates to the fact checking industry.
But let’s not forget the type of people who fund these Fact Checkers...
Bill Gates -
And his lifetime buddy, George Soros -
And let’s not forget how the Fact Checking industry decides what are, or are not, facts
And who funds those facts?
People like Bill Gates, who is making bank from blind adoption of and adherence to the Covid-19 vaccine message due to his massive investments in buying up shares in vaccine-manufacturing pharmaceutical companies, is also:
funding the organisation that certifies the fact checkers,
funding the WHO and GAVI who decide what will be the facts,
funding the news organisations10 who spread the facts, and
funding the teams of fact checkers making decisions about who to ban or what posts to remove.
Bill Gates is the misinformation virus that somebody needs to stop. He is the thing that the whole world needs to be saved from. Not fake pandemics, strong opinions or harsh words.
And all the while organisations like PolitiFact, who are owned and operated by the Poynter Institute (fox watching hen house much?), claim to be non-profit and deny they are receiving this very tainted money (see: https://www.politifact.com/who-pays-for-politifact/ ).
Out of the list at that link do YOU see the $382,997 that I showed above was sent in 2015 by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation?
Somehow $382,997 turned into a paltry $70,000...
Ouch... those bank transfer fees must be murder in America!
And do you see the millions received from George Soros’ foundations?
I wonder why not?
The mainstream media giants and their globalist-funded fact checkers would like us to believe that these bans and takedowns, the ones on so-called medical misinformation, should be categorised not as political, but as science - that information was being objectively judged and removed by them based on scientific evidence...11
But has this ever really been the case?
Or has this simply led to an unnatural bias in the information that is available at a time when well-balanced information was so desperately needed?
As if on cue, a New Zealand judge in a recent court case to decide whether a minor child should receive the Pfizer Covid-19 injections12 brought together opinion-laden mainstream media articles and pro-vaccine blog posts as bench evidence13. He used this pro-Covid-19 vaccination information in his own self-peer-review process to draw completely nonsensical conclusions - such as:
that because an article was published on a newspaper website exposing a single incident where children were given an incorrect dose of the Pfizer mRNA injection, this meant no person or organisation had ever engaged in “an overt attempt to hide unknown adverse consequences”.
that because serial blogger Nora Colburn wrote that her own uncited review found there has never been a vaccine with known long term side effects, we can conclude the new Pfizer mRNA Covid-19 injection that relies on entirely different mechanisms to all previous vaccines, and with no long-term data, will also cause no long-term side effects.
Several eminent scientists and research teams, including groups this author is privileged to be involved with, had made social media posts and submitted pre-print academic articles that reviewed much of this ‘evidence’. Even the mainstream media articles and Nora Colburn’s unsound blog posts used by Judge Collin had been critically analysed. However, in every case these scientifically rigorous reviews and all debate of the items used by Judge Collin as evidence had been silenced by the platforms they were submitted to - stripped from the internet and wider discourse and rendered unavailable to anyone who might be engaged in the important task…
of weighing the evidence both for AND against administering the Pfizer injections for young children.
Returning to the present
The real reason I started this post was because Twitter, even in the supposedly new and enlightened era of Elon Musk, blocked my account and banned my posts again today on the newly created account that links to this substack - @LawHealthtech.
Did they do it because I posted something anti-trans? pro-abortion? racist? defamatory?
Did they do it because I posted anything?
No.
They did it the moment I clicked the like button on this post by @JikkyLeaks
Seriously... I had twice scrolled through and refreshed my feed, and liked a couple of posts... including this one by @ProfNFenton..
But the exact moment I ‘liked’ that @JikkyLeaks post my screen changed and I was informed my account had been suspended due to ‘unusual behaviour’. Several hours and a few emails with the Twitter Support people and my account remains firmly locked out.
If that is what the Enlightened Period is like under Twitter’s new and even more ignorant and self-absorbed tyrant-in-chief Elon Musk...
The world would be better off without it.
TLDR
I don’t for a minute believe that Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter was him saving free speech or ensuring online integrity or some other such altruistic measure. Remember that Elon was himself a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader. Remember that he too has paid money to be a part of The Great Reset cabal.
Remember that the WEF want to turn people into cyborgs with implanted chips and devices14. Remember that the WEF want us all to ride-share in electric connected self-driving cars that can be remote controlled and turned against us (or off) at their master’s whim all in the name of anti-carbon environmental flag-waving15. Remember that the WEF want us eating fake meats16 and living in tiny eco houses17. ANd never forget that the WEF want you eating insects18 that contain proteins that are actually toxic allergens19 to most people20.
And remember that Elon Musk has companies or investments working on all of these things… Neuralink21, remote control electric cars22, environmental flagwaving through grandious claims regarding solar23 and other zero carbon tech24, his own25 and his brother's anti-meat vegan ideology companies26, and the tiny eco houses27. He is even investing some of his vast wealth in development of insect-based human foods28.
Elon Musk is not your saviour.
He is contrived competition.
A person pretending to fight on our side while working hard to develop weapons to stock the quiver of the globalist agenda.

I use this term to describe evidence that was not introduced by either party to the case, but rather by the judge in obiter dictum to support the precedent he wanted to set and message he wanted to send. A message which was entirely based on his own fear-driven opinion.

We hear that Musk is releasing files showing FBI malfeasance, then we hear that the Twitter official overseeing their release is the consummate insider...and we are supposed to believe that Musk did not know. Good grief.
I had the same experience - locked out since 1/3/23 after posting an old White House statement about the unvaccinated looking forward to a winter of death (paraphrasing). I was instantaneously informed that my account was locked due to suspicious/unusual activity and may have been "hacked". And now, despite my best efforts (I've given them every possible email/phone number associated with the account), they respond that I cannot prove I am the verified account owner and therefore will not allow me to access/reset password. it's almost as if they are getting a sadistic pleasure from my attempts to reset it - so i've responded in kind letting them know their inability to function as rational human beings is most likely due to micro clots and mini strokes suffered due to their 4+ booster status. immature? yes. satisfying? most definitely
