"You Sponsored Your Own State Censorship"

And the Fourth Estate Is Still Running Cover

One of the ugly truths about the First Amendment to the US Constitution is that it protects the right to be a total wing-nut conspiracy theorist, which - in recent years - has been redefined. Fact-checkers are, in fact, the bought and paid-for mouthpieces of the global government-industrial complex, and the people they label and target are the truth tellers.

The Fourth Estate is a propaganda asset, a bought and paid-for conduit that portrays itself as the civilized media. It is a manufactured landscape with Stepford Wives messaging. The government is your friend, and a bigger government is just a bigger friend. The truth is that your government is capacity-building foreign and domestic assets to sidestep the First Amendment to manage and, if necessary, censor public debate.

Covidia!

Nearly five years after the global psyop to run cover for the SARS-CoV 2 virus, most of the media the government bought is still hiding behind grants, training money, and ad revenue fed to it to keep it docile. Foreign assets that have successfully silenced speech are leanend into as examples of why it is a good thing. But mapped money trails found during the recent raid on the United States Agency For International Development (USAID) demonstrate the truth in the title of this substack.

“You sponsored your own state censorship.” A lot of it, for longer than you could imagine, and to depths that seem unfathomable even with DOGE digging into every agency to find the truth.

The headline is a quote from Mike Benz’s recent appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience and I’ve included a quick clip to bury the knife in the back of USAID and the global political elite it expensed - your tax dollars - to protect lies and censor the truth.

NewsGuard, which has targeted GraniteGrok and others who - as it turns out were sharing the truth and throttled because the Feds threatened the ad revenue of platforms like Twitter and Facebook, is another example of a player developed on the search engine side of this. Kill the ad revenue on one side and choke their traffic on the other.

We saw how some of this worked with the Twitter files, but that was only a patina of the rot that went much deeper - all sold as necessary censorship - paid for by taxpayers - to protect them and Democracy … from what turned out to be the truth.

As Mike Benz noted (and the exposure of USAID and others reveals), you paid for that with disbursements from USAID, and more revealed from other agencies that the deep staters who feed from these troughs want to be kept hidden. Vast sums of fiat money laundered to deep-state friends and family.

We know that HHS and others spread obscene amounts of your taxdollars across the media spectrum in the form of ad buys. Revenue that bought media silence on a wide range of COVID-related issues. An uncomfortable quiet that continues years later. A search for mRNA vaccine on our local ABC news website produces 19 results dated no later than 2021. Safe and effective. Pro-booster. There’s even an article on a rare link between it and heart inflammation in young men and boys.

I bet you'd find similar results if you did the same thing. Check your local newspaper websites. There is a dearth of truth, even as stories come out about how you paid to be lied to about it and paid to have the truth censored.

So. don’t let the raging opposition distract you with claims that delays or cuts to “humanitarian foreign aid” will result in harm or lost lives. Even if they were true, and most of them were not, the lies about COVID and the response did more damage more quickly and more often thanks to clandestine taxpayer-funded propaganda operations that hid the harm and watched people die rather than tell the truth about anything.

And that same fourth estate is still covering for them.
