REPORT: The DNC Wants Phone Companies To Police Text Messages For Vaccine Misinformation

The Democratic National Committee reportedly wants Short Message Service (SMS) carriers to step in and police private text messages as part of a new push against COVID-19 vaccine misinformation.

Allies of President Joe Biden, including the DNC, plan to “engage fact-checkers more aggressively” and work alongside phone companies to combat misinformation about vaccines shared via social media and private SMS messages, according to a Monday report from Politico.

White House officials are particularly frustrated with the characterization by some Republicans of their door-to-door pro-vaccination campaign, according to the report.

That would make the phone companies state actors, and their actions therefore unconstitutional.

Truth is relative, not absolute.  If I believe it, it's true.

"misinformation"

Facebook hid my post that linked to the WHO's recommendation for people under 18 because it didn't recommend people under 18 get vaccinated.

That's interesting. Who really knows what is accurate information regarding the vaccine, or the virus for that matter, since it updates pretty regularly?

Texts are being read by others?  Could a massive texting of certain messages or words overwhelm their systems?

Just for an interesting mental juxtaposition, imagine the reaction on CNN, MSNBC and other outlets if this Politico story about what the Biden admin and the DNC are asking cell phone carriers to do:

The story caught the attention of GOP Rep. Thomas Massie:

Yes, we can allay the concerns of the excessively paranoid by ... tracking the content they send via text message.

Or more likely, publishers. The minute they edit content, they are publishing, not merely providing a platform.
And that opens them to suit.

I'd like every US politician who has risen in support and encouragement of freedom-loving Cubans to now do the same for freedom-loving Americans.

I'd like the RNC to join the Trump lawsuit against big tech --- and mean it.

Paging the GOP:  I'd like to know who the hell is being targeted here by our fourth branch of government:

A year ago Dem "leaders", including LIEden and Kammie, were telling Americans the Trump Vaccine could not be trusted. What a difference an election makes.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

The democrats consider they are in near complete control and not getting in lockstep is treason and people will be treated accordingly or purged-incarcerated.  Freedom of speech is becoming less than in some third world countries, our economy shaky.
Isn't it WONDERFUL SO MANY NEVERTRUMPERS CONVINCED SO MANY STOOGES/CLUELESS THAT bIDEN HAD TO BE BETTER THAN TRUMPS 2ND TERM IN OFFICE ? ? ?  Well how about it, is this better ? ? ?  The least you can do it thank NeverTrumpers, eh?

IMO it's time to quit blaming one another which at this point is really unnecessary and accomplishes absolutely nothing.  Coming together and finding a solution to avoid having another stolen election is much more important and moves us in a much needed direction. Just sayin'

Calling both sides equal is like calling Jesus Christ equivalent to Satan.  You won't see it by me.  Both sides are politicians,morally differing, apart. Lockstepping is not heavily favored in the Republican party.

NONSENSE. Its the very damn same.

Call me when the Republicans learn what fiscal conservatism and libertarianism are. Because without em there is no dang difference except who's ox is getting gored.

Massive debt and liberty lost under Republicans, just like the Democrats are doing now.

Maybe if Tumpy went the other way by 10 or 20 trillion bucks... Maybe if Tumpy committed to smaller government.
But he didn't. He gave the Democrats bigger and more shameless government to work with.

And if you don't see it, we are doomed, and you are blind.

No, I am facing y'all. Saying what I have all the damn way along. And I am right, as time will tell.
