Wait, you're telling me that the British political party that could most adequately be described as "soft commies" are trying to censor and destroy the businesses of people who think differently than them??
Paul D. Thacker is an investigative journalist who previously worked with the U.S. Senate Finance Committee on cases of corruption and/or lack of integrity in universities, corporations, and federal agencies.
Here's what he reported about the UK Labour Party's hatred of Elon Musk (and free speech?):
No, you're not seeing things.
The leftists in the UK really had a document with "Kill Musk's Twitter" at the top of their "Annual Priorities" list.
And they REALLY mean it!
The Internal Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) is run by political strategist Imran Ahmed, an activist for the Labour Party who is frequently quoted in British media as a pundit.
The CCDH is supposedly non-partisan, just like BLM or Planned Parenthood are "non-partisan."
You'll notice "Klobuchar" highlighted on the first document I shared, presumably a reference to U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota.
In fact, the CCDH has quite a few regular meetings with U.S. Democrats (birds of a feather!):
The CCDH gets a lot of its funding from celebrities (stop buying tickets and merch from people who hate you):
Understand, the CCDH isn't merely affiliated with the Labour Party, which currently runs the UK government. They are integrated together.
From Thacker:
The Center for Countering Digital Hate is the anti-disinformation activist ally of Prime Minister Keir Starmer's Labour Party, and a messaging vehicle for Labour's neoliberal think tank, Labour Together. Both the CCDH and Labour Together were founded by Morgan McSweeney, a Svengali credited with piloting Starmer's rise to Downing Street, much as Karl Rove is credited with guiding George W. Bush to the White House.
How close is McSweeney to, say, the prime minister?
He's his chief of staff.
McSweeney is an ascendant figure, having just been promoted to Starmer's Chief of Staff in something of a palace coup after the abrupt resignation of longtime Labour fixture Sue Gray.
To translate: A foreign government is using an "anti-disinformation" organization to try to kill the free-speech platform of an American businessman who is a vocal ally of the chief political opponents to the current U.S. administration.
It's crucial to understand that CCDH, Labour Together, and Keir Starmer's Labour Party exist as a single package, with McSweeney at the helm.
Oh, did I mention that the CCDH has U.S. tax-exempt status?
The CCDH documents carry particular importance because McSweeney's Labour Together political operatives have been teaching election strategy to Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, leading Politico to call Labour and the Democrats 'sister parties.' CCDH's focus on 'Kill Musk's Twitter' also adds to legal questions about the nonprofit's tax-exempt status as a 501(c)(3) organization.
Imagine the headlines if this were a Russian NGO that was trying to crush the business of an American who supports Kamala, especially if Russian politicians allied with that NGO were traveling to America to actively campaign for Trump!
Back to our story:
According to the IRS, CCDH could lose its special tax status if 'a substantial part of its activities is attempting to influence legislation.' Yet, CCDH's third item on its annual priority list is 'Trigger EU and UK regulatory action' and the group previously employed the firm Lot Sixteen to lobby congressional offices on 'misinformation' in Washington.
This "misinformation" campaign has hurt U.S. outlets for the crime of wrongthink.
In the U.S., a now-defunct CCDH offshoot called Stop Funding Fake News led multiple successful boycotts of media figures across the spectrum, from Zero Hedge during the BLM riots to The Federalist. The formula often involved collaborating with a mainstream media outlet to level an accusation of bigotry, followed by a pressure campaign against advertisers to shut off revenue to the target.
Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist said at the time, "NBC News colluded with a foreign left-wing group in an attempt to destroy us because it disagrees with our political commentary and media criticism."
Now, this British censorship agency is trying to shut down ALL free speech in America:
Now, CCDH's growing Washington office is working on similar plans to 'kill' the online presence of Democratic rivals like Musk by attacking X's advertising revenue, a tactic first perfected in London against The Canary. CCDH is also laying the foundation for broader regulatory changes in the direction of platform censorship.
'60 meetings on the Hill,' reads one CCDH task assignment from early 2024. "Meeting with 16 congressional offices over the next two weeks to give updates on the Elon lawsuit," reads another, referring to Musk's since-dismissed lawsuit against CCDH accusing it of manipulating data to make a case for proliferation of hate speech on X.
CCDH also held meetings with federal legislators while pushing for 'change in USA' toward a censorious proposal it calls the 'STAR framework,' which would create an "independent digital regulator" that could 'impose consequences for harmful content.'
The Brits are trying to silence us Yanks!!
(Are you starting to understand why Biden's team pushed so hard to start a "misinformation board"?)
Elon Musk had thoughts:
In America, we have a long history of telling meddlesome Brits to go pound sand.
Go get 'em, Elon. 😤
