0:00 Intro
Including brief commentary on The Better Way Conference, and the legend I got a signed copy of a book from.

1:54 The only time I've ever been algorithmically censored on Telegram, and my anecdotal conclusions as to why (since it didn't TELL me why). SPOILER: It was when I used a more specific term when criticizing the Israeli regime, and I used that term to specifically call out that I was not talking about Jews in general, or Israelis in general, but instead the much smaller subset of people responsible for the more extremist and supremacist outlooks and actions.

6:22 The 2021 Intercept article that backs up my anecdote.

Despite fact facebook gave the impression in 2021 that such policies of equating the more specific term with the general term, in reality the policy existed at least since 2019.

15:58 Aside, on World Economic Forum Young Global Leaders (asshats Zuckerberg and Katherine Maher, both with their clear censorship agendas and actions, are two), and how in no way, shape, or form are their allegiances EVER towards the principles of their own country.

24:16 Quote from facebook guidance for content moderators.

26:49 The (convenient) irony of how their fake example for when content moderators should censor is an exact scenario of when a regime responsible for such actions would justifiable be criticized (when property rights of others are demolished literally and figuratively).

28:23 An Electronic Frontier Foundation director's opinion on matter.

29:41 More proof of ipso factor First Amendment violations, as facebook admits it both listens to government attempts to DELETE posts or accounts based on viewpoint, and follows through on some of them.

30:06 My aside on 2020 "Constitutional Scholars" from the left, and their willing ignorance on the likelihood (which beared out) that government really was coordinating with the government in their censorship.

32:19 An example of literally WHY the shadow-banned more specific term they're banning is important - an article from a Jewish independent news site at least implying criticism about an Israeli-intelligence influenced app to encourage Jews to crowd report posts and comments for deletion. (ALMOST like its valid to point out that they don't all agree with each other, by using a term to differentiate those with more extreme views. WHOOOOAAA.)  

32:53 My personal story of being blindsided with being name-called anti-Semitic when all I was doing was empathizing with the terrorizing ordeal of humans having their residential homes bulldozed.
