The Free Press Hypocrites Want To Censor Social Media

August 16, 2018 Hunter Wallace Mainstream Media 13

Update: President Trump has responded on Twitter. This is one area where we completely agree with what he is doing.

Happening now … the so-called “free press” is publishing hundreds of editorials in which it denies President Trump’s charge of being “enemies of the people”:

“NEW YORK (AP) — The nation’s newsrooms are pushing back against President Donald Trump with a coordinated series of newspaper editorials condemning his attacks on “fake news” and suggestion that journalists are the enemy.

The Boston Globe invited newspapers across the country to stand up for the press with editorials on Thursday, and several began appearing online a day earlier. Nearly 350 news organizations have pledged to participate, according to Marjorie Pritchard, op-ed editor at the Globe.

In St. Louis, the Post-Dispatch called journalists “the truest of patriots .” The Chicago Sun-Times said it believed most Americans know that Trump is talking nonsense. The Fayetteville, N.C. Observer said it hoped Trump would stop, “but we’re not holding our breath .” …”

Here is a sample of this avalanche of sanctimonious bullshit from “journalists” who are laughably posturing as champions of the First Amendment:

A majority of Republicans disagree:

Nearly half of Republicans want the free press to be shut down:

In the last week, Oliver Darcy of CNN has been campaigning to purge Infowars from the internet and “journalists” have piled on to demand that Alex Jones be suspended from Twitter:

The Free Press has even gone so far as to justify Antifa violence against Trump supporters. They publish a neverending stream of fake news, support gangs of thugs who assault people in the streets and demand mass censorship of social media. Then these people are like “why do they hate us”?

  1. They’re not called the Jewsmedia for nothin’.

    As an aside, speaking of AntiFa©

    United Synagogue Youth have a sub organization.

    613 Mitzvah Corps

    613 Mitzvah Corps (commonly referred to as 613) is USY’s Social Action/Tikun Olam (Repairing the World) or SA/TO club.

    The club was designed for USYers who wish to be more involved in social action and learn more about social activism within the context of Judaism.

    I image their “social activism” includes active participation in Antifa© as Kommissars and Zampolits. No doubt, many an Antifa© action has been planned at a local 613 meeting, under the supervision of USY leaders.

    It would be interesting and instructive to keep an eye on local 613 groups, leading up to public events that Antifa© are sure to attend.

    It might be instructive to observe the relationship between the presence and absence of Synagogues, and the relative strength and effectiveness of the local AntiFa© chapters.

  2. An insight into human nature: in this pre-war, both sides are calling for fascism in one breath, then crying for their rights in the next.

    • Hehe, good point.

      It’s going to be an interesting situation once we get beyond the “pre-” part. Are we still going to be bitching about deplatformings and doxxings and nazi-punchings whilst we’re all running around putting bombs under each others’ cars?

      I always like think that bloodshed will wash away a lot of the bullshit, but then it’ll probably be quite the opposite. Men never lie so much as after a hunt, during a war or before an election.

    • Fascism, like tyranny, is a relative term. Laws against molesting children is tyranny against pedophiles.

    • In reality, you have actual fascists calling for freedom of speech.

      Fascism is an economic ideology and has nothing at all to do with what you think it does.

      • I hate it when people throw words around without having any idea what they really mean. Fascism is about glorifying the State, the way Mussolini did. It’s a political and economic ideology where the State is an end in itself, What is so difficult to grasp about that? And what is so terrible about it?

  3. ‘Freedom of press is freedom of speech’…..yes for leftwing Jewish media-not us. If they genuinely believe in freedom of speech, they’ll just leave alternative media alone-where free speech truly exists.
    Common sense views on social media are now making an impact, and the soon to be not so mainstream media don’t like it. Antifa masquerading as ‘balanced’ journalists-thats all they are.

  4. Methinks they doth protest too much. They’re pissed off because they no longer hold a monopoly on information/disinformation flow which they think they have a special right to hold.

  5. Joel Stein, columnist for the Los Angeles Times newspaper and regular contributor to Time magazine wrote in his column in the LA Times (Dec. 19, 2008) that Americans who think the Jews do not control Hollywood and the media are just plain “dumb.” “Jews totally run Hollywood.” Stein proudly proclaims. He then goes on to provide a long, long list of Hollywood/media chieftains-all Jews! — to prove his point.
