That is, Censorship Of Valid Informative Discussion.
There are things that may not be discussed and awkward types who do so will be de-platformed and persecuted.
Take Dr Vernon Coleman for example. He is a retired GP and was a prolific and widely read journalist as well as successful author of fiction and non-fiction. Until he came out as a Covid dissenter in 2020. Now look: he is banned e.g. not only from posting on YouTube (which he did for years) but even from looking at it.
He is not completely an unperson - his name is still there on the Net - so the Narrative will poison the wells ahead of your quest to find him. Here is the opening paragraph about him on
Wikipedia:
If only there were some easy way of collecting all reviews like this - it would make a handy guide to getting recommendations for reading about interesting people.
Anther man and issue is the comedy writer Graham Linehan, who controversially holds that men are not women.
Wikipedia doesn’t quite do the boot-in-the-balls-and-strangle-him thing, but carefully includes this para compiling quotes from media tpes who know which hymn sheet to sing from:
There, be warned about an obsessive has-been.
Next after Covid-19 and transgender issues comes climate change.
In 2012 an American climatologist called Michael E Mann instituted a
lawsuit against the conservative writer and broadcaster Mark Steyn and ‘rightwing’ blogger (
sic Wikipedia) Rand Simberg for defaming him. Mann had allegedly misrepresented climate data to warn of a “hockey stick” leap in atmospheric temperature; the supposed abuse of the truth was compared to the abuse of a child.
The case ran for twelve years - who among us would withstand the strain of such a prolonged action, surely an instance of the process itself being the punishment?
The jury compensated Mann to the tune of $1 from each defendant. They also imposed punitive damages of $1,000,000 against Steyn but this was later reduced to $5,000 when it turned out
Mann and his lawyers had misled the court about what Mann had lost in grant funding:
Each knowingly made a false statement of fact to the Court and Dr. Mann knowingly participated in the falsehood, endeavoring to make the strongest case possible even if it required using erroneous and misleading information.
It may seem unfair but for me, just a look at Mann’s photo on the Wiki page tells a story:
There are many other areas of public interest suffering from official oppression, lying and obfuscation: mass immigration, systematic child abuse, the alleged ‘genocide’ in Gaza, Ukraine…
Distraction, too: Some say that Sir Keir Starmer’s recent headline-hitting proposal to introduce digital ID was intended to drown-out
the story around £740,000-worth of undeclared donations to Labour Together (LT), a think tank of which the PM’s now chief of staff Morgan McSweeney had been a director at that time.
This saga may run a long while yet as it is also germane to how Starmer rose to power. It is being pursued by Muslim convert Jody McIntyre who in last year’s General Election as a newbie Parliamentary candidate very nearly ousted Jess Phillips MP from what had previously been a very safe Labour seat.
See his Twitter/X thread on LT-Gate here.
The tale is part of a bigger story, of how Labour is harming the country by pandering to a minority that seems destined to break away from its control no matter what the leadership does.
The truth is becoming elusive but those who steer us according to their preferred blinkered narrative may drive the ship onto the rocks.
We must resist “COVID”, the “Censorship Of Valid Informative Discussion.”
