Strike

I received this email from Orthodox Ethos, an Orthodox channel, who amongst other things are also prolific book publishers under the name Uncut Mountain Press:

Attention!

Due to ongoing censorship on Youtube, The Orthodox Ethos received a strike on their channel for discussing the covid vaccine during a question from a viewer. They are forbidden from livestreaming videos for one week

Ah fascism: the seamless and heartwarming union of Big Government and  Big Business - Big Business here represented by the ethically and intellectually perfect duo  of Big Pharma and Big Tech. Together these forces are protecting democracy from its enemies.

 The meaning of words though, as we all know, has now become quite flexible, and it is possible that ‘democracy’ is now identifying as something a bit different from what it used to. I’m not sure but I think maybe fascism now identifies as democracy and vice versa - I’d have to look it up though.

And to add, since Youtube is owned by Google, then of course the same attempts to edit reality are applied with great enthusiasm to the parameters of that search engine.
