Anti-vaxx people are really Russian bots
By Jon Rappoport
Well, well. The virulently pro-vax forces have just
discovered their opponents are really, wait for it, Russian bots,
launched to promote societal discord and polarize conflict.
That settles it. Nothing to see, move along. The arguments
rejecting vaccine safety and efficacy were just bot-nonsense. No need to
understand what they were saying. It was all a sham. Vaccines are
wonderful. Everybody knows that.
On California Senator Richard Pan's website---Pan sponsored
the mandatory childhood vaccination bill in CA that became law---we find
this:
"Dr. Richard Pan, a pediatrician and state senator representing the Sacramento region, responded to the study, Weaponized Health Communication: Twitter and Russian Trolls Amplify the Vaccine Debate, published in the American Journal of Public Health."
[Senator Pan states] "This research provides evidence that
foreign and domestic agents are manipulating social media through bots
to discourage vaccination to promote their own agendas; Russian trolls
for sowing political discord and commercial and malware distributors for
marketing. In addition, the researchers concluded that a significant
proportion of anti-vaccination messages are organized 'astroturf.'
Manipulation of social media to promote anti-vaccine messages by outside
agents poses a serious threat to the health and safety of Americans..."
The devious implication? There is no serious anti-vaccine research, it's all bots and Russians.
I know at least a dozen serious independent vaccine
researchers who have found huge holes in conventional vaccine
mythology---but guess what? It turns out they're non-human bots. Who
knew I was sitting having coffee with a bot? Wow. Amazing what you learn
when you listen to Authorities.
Senator Pan is pushing the envelope by sponsoring a new bill in the CA senate. Here is what I recently wrote about that:
California used to be trumpeted as the cutting edge of American culture.
It still is, except the culture is now all about censoring free speech.
California Senator Richard Pan, who was behind the infamous 2015 law mandating vaccinations for schoolchildren (SB277), has stepped up to the plate and introduced another bill.
This one would clamp down on criticism of ANY Official Story.
The bill is titled "SB1424 Internet: social media: false information: strategic plan."
It targets social media based in California. But as you read
the bill, you see it appears to define social media as any Internet
blog, website, or communication.
SB1424 is brief. Read it:
This bill would require any person who operates a social
media, as defined, Internet Web site with a physical presence in
California to develop a strategic plan to verify news stories shared on
its Web site. The bill would require the plan to include, among other
things, a plan to mitigate the spread of false information through news
stories, the utilization of fact-checkers to verify news stories,
providing outreach to social media users, and placing a warning on a
news story containing false information.
(a) Any person who operates a social media Internet Web site
with physical presence in California shall develop a strategic plan to
verify news stories shared on its Internet Web site.
(b) The strategic plan shall include, but is not limited to, all of the following:
(1) A plan to mitigate the spread of false information through news stories.
(2) The utilization of fact-checkers to verify news stories.
(3) Providing outreach to social media users regarding news stories containing false information.
(4) Placing a warning on a news story containing false information.
(c) As used in this section, "social media" means an
electronic service or account, or electronic content, including, but not
limited to, videos, still photographs, blogs, video blogs, podcasts,
instant and text messages, email, online services or accounts, or
Internet Web site profiles or locations.
Getting the picture?
It's a free speech killer.
If it passes, agencies of the California government will
develop numerous regulations for enforcement, including penalties for
"speech criminals."
Saying this bill violates the 1st Amendment of the
Constitution is a vast understatement. The last time I looked, the
Founders mentioned nothing about fact checkers or warnings attached to
speech.
Can we look forward to this?
"Open borders and a flood of immigration into California are
destructive to---wait. My statement has been precluded by warnings and
fact-checker overrides..."
Or: "VACCINES ARE DANGEROUS. Ahem, I am making a debatable
assertion and I must warn you that official experts strenuously disagree
with me, and furthermore, the California Fact Checkers United, a
division of Merck-Snopes Thought Police, has determined that my
assertion is groundless and harmful to children's health..."
There needs to be a relentless tsunami of protest in
California over this Orwellian bill. I know of a number of Internet news
operations in the state. They must jump in and lead the way.
In case you believe there are too many websites and blogs
based in California to enforce a new draconian law, let me explain how
the game works. Behind closed doors, the state government would decide
to focus on a few big issues. For example, gun control, vaccines, and
immigration. Enforcement agencies would go after the biggest Internet
operations expressing politically unacceptable points of view on those
subjects. At first. A spread of smaller operations would feel the heat
later.
So-called fact checkers would come from government supported
groups who agree with Official Positions. In other words, they wouldn't
be fact checkers at all. They would be prime news fakers.
When it comes to the issue of vaccines, for example, they
would cite the notoriously biased "experts" at the Centers for Disease
Control, never mentioning that the CDC buys and sells $4 billion of vaccines a year.
If, 10 or 15 years ago, someone told you a bill like SB1424
was going to come before a state legislature for a vote, you would have
thought you were listening to a Hollywood pitch for a sci-fi movie
script.
But now it's real. It's here. Believe it.
CRUSH IT.
