Censorship

Censorship articles deliver in-depth analysis of the global censorship industrial complex — the coordinated efforts by governments, Big Tech, agencies, and institutions to suppress dissent — and their devastating impacts on public health, free trade, individual liberty, free speech, open dialogue, scientific debate, and policy reform.

We expose mechanisms like government-sponsored censorship, social media suppression, digital authoritarianism in the West (e.g., UK, Canada, Germany, France), disinformation laundering through agencies (CISA, DHS, Treasury), fact-checking industrial complex, self-censorship in science and medicine, COVID-era narrative control, online scrubbing, and threats to mental health discourse, university independence, and sovereign media. Brownstone critiques how these practices distort medical judgment, erode trust in institutions, enable technocratic overreach, and undermine personal freedoms and evidence-based policy.

All censorship articles from Brownstone Institute are translated into multiple languages to promote global access, foster international resistance to suppression, and empower readers worldwide to defend free expression and challenge centralized control.

To sum up by using a currently popular term, Biden and his DOJ would ‘weaponise’ the TikTok ban to the hilt, to the detriment of the citizens of the US as well as American democracy. And make no mistake: democracy may never recover from what threatens to become nothing less than McCarthyism on steroids. While one has access to the means for resisting this conspicuous act of usurping the constitutionally ‘guaranteed’ rights and freedoms of the American people, one must avail oneself of these – before they disappear.

At her confirmation hearings, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson claimed she lacked the expertise to define “woman.” Just two years later, she did not hesitate to redefine the First Amendment and free speech as she advocated for the regime to bulldoze our Constitutional liberties provided they offer sufficiently sanctimonious justifications.

Initiated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and led by the Stanford Internet Observatory (SIO), the Virality Project sought to censor those who questioned government Covid-19 policies. The Virality Project primarily focused on so-called “anti-vaccine” “misinformation”, however, my Twitter Files investigations with Matt Taibbi revealed this included “true stories of vaccine side effects.”

It is not just the Court’s power to remedy usurpations of our liberty, but it is its duty. The Chief has been derelict in the past, deferring to the capricious whims of political opportunists, but Murthy v. Missouri offers the Chief an opportunity to reaffirm his Court’s commitment to the Constitution.

In two weeks, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Murthy v. Biden (formerly known as Missouri v. Biden) to consider whether to uphold an injunction that bars the White House, CDC, FBI, CISA, and Surgeon General’s Office from coercing or encouraging social media companies from censoring constitutionally protected speech.

A positive ruling for the plaintiffs doesn’t solve every problem but at least it will mean that freedom still stands a chance in this country. A ruling for the defense, which is essentially the government itself, will give license to every federal agency – including those that operate in secret like the FBI and CIA – to threaten every social media and media company in this country to delete any and all content that runs contrary to the approved narrative.

Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) threaten to replace the cash we use with programmable, trackable, and censorable tokens controlled by governments. Your financial choices could be suppressed, and privacy eliminated. Based on what I’ve learned and experienced directly, this could happen before the 2024 election. The best way to stop it is through direct action, not through politics.

On Wednesday, February 14th a highly controversial law was pushed through the National Assembly in France, potentially turning a critic of mRNA treatment into a criminal. The draconian law, which was quietly passed with virtually no debate, could throw anyone who advises against the use of therapeutic or prophylactic treatment (including experimental mRNA gene therapy) into prison for up to 3 years and pay a hefty fine of 45,000 Euros.
