Censorship


YouTube took down the video from the two California doctors contending that the continuous lockdown was exactly the wrong strategy to deal with the coronavirus ... see: Freedom of Speech. It seems that they could not allow any opinions that were counter to Dr. Fauci’s dicta.

Now, the Masters of the Universe (Twitter, Google’s YouTube, FaceBook) are once again censorng what they don’t want Americans to see ... this time a Nigerian doctor vehemently attesting that hydroxychloroquinine (HCQ) is an effective Covid treatment ... see: RT Video.

I realize that the Masters of the Universe are private companies and therefore can censor whatever they want. But, it would seem when they have achieved such monopolistic powers over their media highways, that some constraints should be applied to their plenary powers.

And besides, Trump should have used reverse-English ... and disparaged HCQ to begin with ... and it would therefore have become the standard treatment ... possibly saving thousands of lives. So, in a way, these deaths really were the truculent anti-Trump media’s fault in the end.

One of your most bizarre conclusions to date. Your expert Nigerian Doctor also blames evil spirits and claims that Aliens (ETs) are in high government positions.

Shaking my head because you've turned your back on science and logic in the service of idiocracy.

And you missed the entire point of this post ... the title being “Censorship” ... if this dreck continues by Big Tech, pretty soon neither of us will be able to express ourselves online.

How do you know she is telling the truth about her "300 patients" I need your attention. You've seen the video Trump shared of doctors claiming scientists don't want you to know that Hydroxychloroquine cures COVID-19. So I did some digging on the doctors to see if they're credible. Here's what I found:
�� Dr. Immanuel has no privileges at any Texas hospital and claims that scientists are developing a vaccine to make you an atheist, modern medical treatments contain alien DNA, and miscarriage, endometriosis, and infertility are caused by having sex with demons in your dreams. It gets worse.
- Licensing: http://www.tmb.state.tx.us/page/look-up-a-license
- Some of her views: https://archive.fo/G7wtb
�� She claims masks are unnecessary and she and all her medical staff take Hydroxychloroquine to prevent COVID-19, but she wears a mask in her videos promoting her Fire Power Ministry -- just not when she's trying to influence public health policy. Among her Fire Power Ministry services are conversion therapy and removing generational curses from your placenta.
�� When you search for her clinic, it shows her religious gift shop in a strip mall. In her posts and videos, *she Photoshops her clinic sign over the actual sign next door*. She "runs" another clinic in Katy, TX OUT OF AN OLD HOME but again the sign says it's her ministry. Look at the photos! Would you trust this person with your health?

�� Each doctor in the video is wearing a white coat with an "America's Frontline Doctors" logo. They are organized by the "Tea Party Patriots". AFD's site was created right before the video, on July 16, less than two weeks ago, so Breitbart could say, "We're here with America's frontline doctors." Not exactly an established group. The AFD site runs out of that strip mall. The listed phone number leads to a website called "Southern Flare [sic] Urgent Care" with another photoshopped clinic encouraging anyone with COVID to pay for virtual treatment.
�� In the video, she says she's saving the lives of patients who are about to die from COVID-19. On her page, she says she accepts patients with mild cases.
�� She set up a GoFundMe for any future legal issues she may have. (GoFundMe appears to be down now.)
�� Dr. Simone Gold, with America's Frontline Doctors, claimed to be affiliated with Centinela Hospital (they have confirmed she is not a current staff member), and inferred she was affiliated with Cedars-Sinai ER -- who has clarified that she is not.
�� Dr. Gold has 4 reviews, at least one of which was made today and simply thanks her for being so "brave" in the video.
�� Dr. Jeff Barke is a Qanon conspiracy theorist who was busted in a drug sting. He is affiliated with an online school that was recently sued for fraud and was under investigation for preying on seniors. He's a member of a group that funds Republican candidates, and the Orange County Republican Central Committee. He said COVID-19 is no more dangerous than the flu, when US flu deaths are at 34,000/year and US COVID-19 deaths are at 150,000.
�� Dr. Barke founded a religious charter school using right-wing curriculum developed by Betsy DeVos-linked Hillsdale College. A charter school PAC gave his wife's campaign $245,000. Guess who is leading the fight to reopen Orange County schools during a pandemic.

Good thing that the Masters of the Universe did not censor where you found all this content.
