World News See other World News Articles Title: Red Cross Demands Vaccine Skeptics be Censored on the Internet Do you remember when the censorship of a guy who made jokes about a fat woman who died of a heart attack was a single, isolated, unique situation, and no one else would ever be subjected to censorship like he was? You should remember it. Because it was only three short years ago. Now, here we are today, and key organs of the global democracy system are openly calling for tens of millions of people to be silenced because of their views on a vaccine. It sure would have been great if people would have listened to that guy who made the jokes about the fat woman when he was screaming “PLEASE, STAND UP AND OPPOSE THIS, THEY ARE COMING FOR ALL OF YOU NEXT!” But no one ever could have predicted that censorship was a slippery slope. You live and learn, I guess. AP: The head of the world’s largest humanitarian network is urging governments and institutions to combat “fake news” about COVID-19 vaccines which has become “a second pandemic” and start building trust in communities around the world about the critical importance of vaccinating people. Francesco Rocca, president of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, said in a virtual briefing to the U.N. Correspondents Association on Monday that “to beat this pandemic, we also have to defeat the parallel pandemic of distrust.” He said there is “a growing hesitancy about vaccines in general, and about a COVID vaccine in particular” around the world, pointing to a recent Johns Hopkins University study in 67 countries that found vaccine acceptance declined significantly in most countries from July to October this year. In a quarter of countries, Rocca said, the study found that the acceptance rate for a vaccine against the coronavirus was near or below 50 percent, with Japan dropping from 70 percent to 50 percent acceptance, and France dropping from 51 percent to 38 percent acceptance. He stressed that the lack of trust “is by no means a Western phenomenon,” citing the federation’s research in recent months in eight African countries — Congo, Cameroon, Gabon, Zimbabwe, Sierra Leone, Rwanda, Lesotho and Kenya — which showed a steady decline in the perceptions of the risk of COVID-19 infection. A growing number of people indicated the virus doesn’t affect young people or Africans, that the disease doesn’t exist now but did exist and the pandemic has ended, he said. “In several African countries, we have seen a common skepticism towards vaccines in general, with a common belief being that foreigners use Africa as a medical ‘testing ground.’” Surprisingly, Rocca said, some typically vulnerable and marginalized groups aren’t even aware of the pandemic, pointing to a federation survey in Pakistan which found 10 percent of respondents didn’t know about COVID-19. “We believe that the massive, coordinated efforts that will be needed to roll out the COVID vaccine in an equitable manner need to be paralleled by equally massive efforts to proactively build and maintain trust,” Rocca said. For the record, Rocca later told RT that they weren’t calling for censorship, they just want to “fight fake news.” Obviously, we all know what that means, and we are all sitting here watching tech companies silence anyone who questions the safety of these coronavirus vaccines, or even discusses any information about them in a critical way.

In the most extreme case (probably), they deleted a tweet that was retweeted by the President of the United States that just had screenshots from the CDC website.

Dear President Trump, we would appreciate it if you would issue an Executive Order allowing the average citizens to actively participate in the firing squads that will surely be necessitated after so many traitors, and vaccine facilitators are rounded up and prosecuted. (Please) !
