One of Joe Biden’s senior advisors told a reporter this week that social media companies should be cracking down on and censoring anyone who speeds information critical of the administration’s so called ‘green energy transition’.
National climate advisor Gina McCarthy made the comments in an interview with a reporter for Axios, stating “Now it’s not so much denying the problem. What the [fossil fuel] industry is now doing is seeding doubt about the costs associated with [green energy] and whether they work or not.”
She continued, “We need the tech companies to really jump in,” on “disinformation,” noting that criticising a green energy transition upheaval is “equally dangerous to denial,” and adding “we have to move fast.”
The Axios interviewer just nodded in agreement without any pushback.

The Wall Street Journal reported on the comments, noting “Some conservative scholars argue that Big Tech companies could be sued as “state actors” for violating users’ First Amendment speech rights when they censor content at the behest of government officials. Ms. McCarthy is helping make their case.”
As we highlighted recently, Joe Biden has admitted, using rhetoric identical to Davos ‘great reset’ elites, that unaffordable gas prices in the U.S. are part of a deliberate “transition” to green energy.
I thought he was fixing that? https://t.co/UdiTHrYNb1

[ZH: Perhaps they have good reason to tamp down this groundswell of realization as the cost of the “net zero” Grand Reset transition will be $150 trillion (with a ‘T’).
In case you believe that is just ‘conspiracy theory’ wonks spreading disinformation, it was actually Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen at her keynote address at COP26
Glasgow and COP26 is a pivotal moment at the start of this decisive decade of climate action. The climate crisis is already here. This is not a challenge for future generations, but one we must confront today.
Rising to this challenge will require the wholesale transformation of our carbon-intensive economies. It’s a global transition for which we have an estimated/B> price tag: some have put the global figure between $100 and $150 trillion over the next three decades. At the same time, addressing climate change is the greatest economic opportunity of our time.
These numbers are simply staggering, and as Yellen concedes, “The gap between what governments have and what the world needs is large, and the private sector needs to play a bigger role.”
Imagine the ‘shared sacrifice’ that you will all be asked to pay in the name of funding this farce? Now that is a good reason for government to silence anyone who dares tell the truth.
The Democrats are rushing now to so damage and destroy the fossil fuel infrastructure (Oil/Coal/Gas) that even Donald Trump will not be able to repair what's left when he returns.
Now, they want to silence anyone who is warning against it.
They must be stopped NOW!
So we’re transphobes if we oppose puberty blockers or wind farms?
Cool.
And if the government decides to launch an investigation and or prosecution against companies that do not comply, that's not the government censoring speech, that's just the government using their rightful government powers to investigate and prosecute lawbreaking.
See how this works Semimojo?
If "private" companies have that power, the government will force them to use it in a manner that meets government approval.
If you don't like what I say....You give your opinion...that's how it works.
Greenies refuse to do the math.
Now they want to silence anyone who actually does the math.
No surprise there. No surprise at all.
These people are all fascist-lite. And they yearn to drop the “lite” part.
Awww, lookie. A twenty-something college trained fascist. How cute.
There be too much truth telling going on in social media. We can’t have no truth telling. SHUT IT DOWN !!! TRUTH TELLING DANGEROUS
Didn't see it on search.
This is an important story.
Maybe more people will see it.
Translation : Censure our critics because we have no answers 🤪
And that goes for opposition to BLM, Abortion, Illegal immigration, gun control...
You would think that even some more liberal minded people might have some nagging concern about all of this. But I don't see it.
It’s hard to believe how brainwashed these “green” people are!
Oh yeah? Transition this!
No. If you don't like what I say, I'll kill you or have one of my government organizations do it for me...that's how it works!

Egads!
A dead-eyed skunk interviewing a full-on butch dyke.
No wonder things are going so poorly. Look who is in charge.
I think you got it backwards. The fascist is the sour-puss hag on the right.
I wonder how the democrats would like it if the right censored, silenced, and otherwise treated them the way they treat anyone they disagree with.
