Censors Under Fire

There's a congressional hearing going on in the US. The stated aim of it is to discover the extent to which censorship has been used to suppress opinions on topics ranging from Hunter Biden's lap top to gender reassignment therapy for children and vaccine policies. However, the primary objective is no doubt to shield politicians from any blame when it comes to the various backlashes that are about to unfold.

I predicted back in 2021 that this would happen. Politicians will turn on the censors to deflect blame from their own complicity in the damage that they have wrought. My advice to the censors was to get out of dodge, and this too has happened. The rats were leaving the ship back in mid 2022. There's been a vaccine pivot. Opinion makers have changed colours on all sorts of subjects, leaving the abandoned herd to fend for itself.

My prediction for the current hearing is that nothing will come of it in terms of direct punishment. No-one will go to jail. However, justice will nevertheless be served. Censors are known to live short and miserable lives, and there's no reason to believe that this pattern won't repeat. In fact, justice may be served with a vengeance this time around because most censors have taken the remedies that they spent their days defending.

The people most likely to be up to date on their vaccine program are censors. They are fully boosted, and there's moral pressure for them to continue taking the boosters simply to prove to everyone that their belief in the health benefit of the mystery serum is genuine. They're facing Céline Gounder's dilemma. They know by now that the vaccine is dangerous, but to admit this is to commit social and economic suicide, so they continue taking the boosters in the hope that it will somehow not affect them negatively despite all the evidence to the contrary.

As the saying goes Karma is a bitch.
