White House Flags COVID “Misinformation” Posts For Facebook To Censor

Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary said they are identifying “problematic” posts on Facebook which they want to be removed from the platform. This all concerns COVID-19.

Psaki has more to say,

We are in regular touch with the social media platforms and those engagements typically happen through members of our senior staff and also members of our COVID-19 team — given as Dr. Murthy conveyed, this is a big issue, of misinformation, specifically on the pandemic,” Psaki said.

She added: “We’ve increased disinformation research and tracking within the Surgeon General’s Office. We are flagging problematic posts for Facebook that spread disinformation.”

So the White House is now helping Facebook do their job. This is unbelievable.

Notice, Psaki said they are working with the Surgeon General.

This is what he had to say.

Misinformation poses an imminent and insidious threat to our nation’s health,” Murthy said during remarks to reporters Thursday at the White House. “We must confront misinformation as a nation. Lives are depending on it.”

Here is Twitter’s response,

“We agree with the surgeon general,” Twitter said in a statement. “Tackling health misinformation takes a whole-of-society approach.”

“A whole-of-society approach”?

Look, there is a ton of misinformation out there. There is no debating that.

I have seen horrible misinformation about the vaccine from those who just hate the idea of being vaccinated. Hey, just because we think its a horrible idea doesn’t mean we should latch onto everything that comes our way that agrees with our sentiment, right?

If something is truthful, then hey, perfect. However, making up lies or stitching together untruths to fit our beliefs makes us no better than the enemy.

Now back to that enemy, which apparently is our own government at this point.

They continually contribute to “misinformation”.

It was Biden just the other day who said the Delta Variant is far more contagious and deadly than the original strain. That is a lie according to a British medical journal. See our article, Celebrate “Deadly” Delta Variant, It Has A 99.9% Recovery Rate! for more on that.

So we have misinformation on all sides and meanwhile, the American people are only getting a shred of truth. We live in a sad world folks, do not let it consume you, but fact check everything you are presented with, and don’t forget, to turn it off, and go for a walk.

I see the sun out there.
