    People! Pay attention! THIS is why censorship is so bad. THIS is the slippery slope it leads to. Censoring information is just the first step in controlling the public, and keeping them uninformed/misinformed.

    It’s the same as burning books. It’s the same as shutting down websites. It’s the same as only allowing state only channels to report news.

    Back in the 80s the USA knew about chernobyl about a week after it happened. Russian citizens didn’t know for 3-4 weeks later.

    China knew about Covid in August of 2019. They tried to supress the news until it finally leaked in November 2019.

    Now russia wants to supress information of how badly the “special military operation” is going…almost 3 years into a 3 day operation.

    So make sure you take note when people around you try to supress information, and ask WHY they want to do that. Looking at you, Florida…

    Looks like Matrix is about to see an influx of users. And they can’t shut down Matrix.
