Power may flow from the barrel of a gun ultimately, but downstream of that, it flows from control of communication. It is /absolutely/ partisan, indeed even counterrevolutionary, to let everyone have their say. At least where any significant number of people can hear them. And that's where shadowbanning comes in… Darin<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>OK so how about this: make everything open to scrutiny.
