Twitter Rolls Out Massive Update to Its “Covid Misinformation Policy” – Will Now CENSOR Factual Statements and BAN Users Who Claim The Vaccinated Can Spread the Virus

SNIP

Several completely factual claims about the virus are now going to be censored or no longer allowed to be shared on the platform, including the simple fact that vaccinated people CAN “spread” Covid-19.

Statements like this will be labeled with “corrective information” if they are allowed to be posted at all.

From Twitter’s policy:

We may apply labels to Tweets that contain, for example:

– “the vaccines will cause you to be sick, spread the virus, or would be more harmful than getting COVID-19”

– “false or misleading claims that people who have received the vaccine can spread or shed the virus (or symptoms, or immunity) to unvaccinated people”

Not only are these two examples accurate, but even the CDC admits that fully vaccinated and even boosted individuals are able to transmit the virus to others, meaning Twitter users could now be punished for sharing or discussing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) own admission.

All in preparation for 2022. A vast majority of the country are tired of politics and have tuned out. This plays in the DEMs’ favor.

Easy for me - I’m not on Twitter. :D
I do think the beast(s) have to be starved of attention, time, money etc. Otherwise, they’ll just continue to feed on us.

I’ve been off Twitter for almost a year and don’t miss it.

Let it go back to the Liberal cesspool it always has been.

The NY Post still doesn’t link to anything besides the mainstream social media sites.

Twitter is a cesspool, full of pedophiles and Communists.
Best to stay far away from it.

Any data about Transmission published pre August is complete BS. Delta rewrote the rules and Omicron will burn the rulebook.

November data from Singapore says Moderna Protects from Hospitalization about 12-15X over unvaccinated, Pfizer is 10X-6X over unvaccinated, and this fall way off after 5 months. NONE are as good a Natural Immunity.

Data from the UK that came out today tell a mucg worse story for the Vaccines vs. Delta.

Why bother with Twitter at all? If every conservatives committed to dropping off, they’d lose 90% of their intellectual content. It’s already getting there, kill it, with fire if necessary.

"Several completely factual claims about the virus are now going to be censored or no longer allowed to be shared on the platform, including the simple fact that vaccinated people CAN “spread” Covid-19."

Fact.

Compare to:

"– “the vaccines will cause you to be sick, spread the virus, or would be more harmful than getting COVID-19”"

Which is it? Two very different claims. Poor journalism.

Twitter is of course totalitarian, I'm addressing the disecrepancy in this article.
