Facebook, Big Tech genuflecting to China
Facebook-- and the other social media giants-- exhibit preposterous and revolting virtue-signaling gall while kowtowing to Communist China and its military, not least by banning all references to the “Wuhan” or “Chinese” flu on their platforms due to their “racist” and bigoted nature. These monumental frauds and charlatans often claim to be all about morality and charity, and openly despise supposedly money-grubbing Republicans, yet they will do/allow/tolerate anything if they believe it is to the benefit of their own bottom line.
If they are not the “focus of evil in the modern world,” they are aiding and abetting those that are. If they had a shred of decency/morality/integrity/humanity, they would be beyond ashamed. If they were really concerned about making the world a better place, they would “cancel” themselves.
It seems the billion-and-a-half Chinese -- and the market they comprise -- are all they really care about… even after telling us that there are far too many humans now and that this is inevitably leading to planetary destruction.
China’s carbon footprint, the largest in the world? Island-size plastic offal-heaps in the ocean, courtesy of the Middle Kingdom? Countless “artificial islands” being built in the South China Sea to be used as military bases with which to dominate sea lanes and threaten its neighbors? The imprisonment and torture of Uighurs? Tossing baby girls into the trash for decades like spent/used condoms under its “one-child” policy? Meh. No big whoop. What are you so excited about?
Yet these same entities until recently flat-out banned speculation that the COVID-19 virus may have somehow originated in a Wuhan lab that was studying coronaviruses at the time. People, President Trump included, were reprimanded, fired, or sued for evening daring to utter the phrases “China Virus,” “Wuhan Flu,” or “Kung Flu.”
China may or may not have engineered COVID-19 as a bioweapon. What is certain is that it is becoming much more technologically proficient, mostly from stealing information from the U.S. And that it is growing its navy at an astounding rate. It has simultaneously become increasingly smug and belligerent.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin purportedly said, “The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.”
Tragically, it appears he was correct.
