Een
belangrijk Twitteraccount, @Unity4J, waar men zaken publiceert ter
verdediging van journalist en WikiLeaks oprichter Julian Assange is geblokkeerd door
Twitter…… De beheerders van het account hebben van Twitter geen reden voor de
blokkade ontvangen……

Het is
dan ook steeds duidelijker dat de VS overheid, of beter gezegd de
Trump administratie en de geheime diensten (de belangrijkste: CIA, NSA en FBI) in de VS plus rechtse denktanks als de Atlantic Council (lobbyorgaan voor de NAVO en de rest van het militair-industrieel complex) en zelfs het Pentagon, een wel heel
dikke vinger in de pap hebben als het gaat om platforms als Twitter en
Facebook, waar Google in feite ook wordt gecontroleerd door organen als de al genoemde geheime diensten in de
VS……..

Politieke
zaken mogen blijkbaar alleen gepubliceerd worden op Twitter als dit door
zwaargewichten als Trump gebeurt en als het van de (uiterst) rechterkant van de politiek komt…. Daarover gesproken: ieder ander
met veel volgers, die woorden zou gebruiken en haat zou zaaien als
Trump, zou al lang van Twitter en Facebook zijn gegooid……. (althans dat mag je hopen….)

Laat Twitter weten dat je het account terug wil zien op Twitter, kopieer het volgende en post het ajb op Twitter: @TwitterSupport & @Jackpleasere-instate@Unity4J
asap!

Lees het
volgende artikel van Caitlin Johnstone en geeft het door mensen,
het internet is van ons allen en Julian Assange zit vast omdat
hij zijn werk als journalist wel serieus nam en de waarheid naar
buiten bracht, hij dient dan ook onmiddellijk te worden vrijgelaten!!

Assange Defense Account Deleted By Twitter

by Caitlin
Johnstone

One of the biggest
Twitter accounts dedicated to circulating information and advocacy
for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, @Unity4J, has been completely
removed from the site. The operators of the account report that they
have been given no reason for its removal by Twitter staff, and have
received no response to their appeals.

Any
Assange supporter active on Twitter will be familiar with the Unity4J
account, which originated to help boost the wildly successful Unity4J
online vigils in
which well-known Assange defenders would appear to speak out against
his persecution. As of this writing, the account has been gone
for a day and a half.

“About 8:45am CST on
Thursday July 11, one of our Unity4J Twitter team members went to
retweet on the account and noticed that the account was no longer
accessible,” reports pro-Assange activist Christy Dopf, one of
the operators of the account. “When each of us also attempted to
access the account we all received the same message ‘Account
Suspended’. Twitter did not send us a reason or violation for the
suspension. So an appeal was submitted. We did receive correspondence
that Twitter got our request and the case is currently open.
Unfortunately we do not have a timeline on how long this could take.”

I’m back on Twitter after the outage but @unity4J is still suspended – we did not receive an email or a reason for the suspension. Appeal process started. #FreeAssange #Unity4J pic.twitter.com/a14DqZaoGt

Speaking for myself as a
vocal Assange supporter on Twitter, I can say that I’ve been
following the @Unity4J account closely since its earliest days and
I’ve never once seen it post anything other than highly
professional-looking advocacy for Julian Assange. I’ve certainly
never seen it post anything that could be construed as abusive,
misleading, or otherwise in violation of any of Twitter’s posted
rules.

This
account’s deletion is just the latest in a long string of apparently
biased actions against WikiLeaks and Assange by the immensely
influential social media platform. That bias was made abundantly
clear with Twitter’s ridiculous refusal
to verify Assange while
he was posting from his own account despite his undeniably being a
significant public figure, and despite the fact that Twitter was
well aware that the account was authentic.
The platform has been receiving consistent
complaints among
Assange supporters of using shadow bans to marginalize their voices,
as well as unfair posting
locks and restrictions.

“It seems that
Assange supporters have been targeted for suspension over the last
few days and weeks, including the suspension of individuals (Yon
Solitary, Monique Jolie) as well as accounts like Unity4J,”
Unity4J co-founder Elizabeth Lea Vos told me today. “All of
these suspensions are unacceptable, but I find the Unity4J suspension
especially egregious because it was an amplifier of events across the
board, not only actions run by Unity4J. It never broke the
twitter rules and it was an activist account supporting a journalist
who’s been silenced or ‘disappeared,’ so this suspension is an
extension of that suppression. Assange asked us to become his voice,
and platforms like Twitter appear to be actively working against the
possibility of that effort.”

Pro-Assange activists
have been speaking out against @Unity4J’s removal.

“The
main Twitter account defending Julian Assange, and therefore press
freedom and freedom of speech, has been suspended,” tweeted comedian
and Redacted
Tonight host
Lee Camp. “@Unity4J – suspended for defending a hero.”

“HELP!!
Twitter suspended @Unity4J The global #FreeAssange supporters
account!” tweeted Assange’s
mother Christine Assange. “Its a central point for updates,
interviews and actions re my son politically persecuted journalist
JULIAN ASSANGE! Please demand @TwitterSupport and @Jack
re-instate it. Many thanks #Unity4J”

“I
have no doubt that @Unity4J’s twitter account was suspended because
it was a hub of useful information on solidarity events and actions
in support of Assange, WikiLeaks, Chelsea Manning and more.
Horrendous censorship to suspend the account,
@TwitterSupport,” tweeted Elizabeth
Lea Vos.

“If
@Unity4J is not restored, it is proof that Twitter would have sided
against the Free Mandela movement, and every other mass liberation
movement of a ‘terrorist’ turned Nobel nominee,” tweeted Unity4J
co-founder Suzie Dawson.

Many
other Assange supporters have been flagging
the attention of
the Twitter Support account and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey objecting to
the unjust silencing of a perfectly legitimate activist account, to
no avail thus far.

HELP!! @Twitter suspended @Unity4J

The
censorship of political speech on online media platforms is a large
and growing problem.

Twitter has been better about this than the far
more sycophantic Facebook and Google, but the discrimination against
anti-establishment political speech is undeniable at this point. I
myself was removed
from the platform last year just
for saying the world would be better off without warmongering US
Senator John McCain in it, and was only restored after protests from
high-profile Twitter users.

In
a corporatist system of government, in which there is no meaningful
separation of corporate power and state power, corporate censorship
is state censorship. With giant Silicon Valley corporations aligning
themselves with shady state-funded propagandistic think tanks like
the Atlantic Council, being admonished
on the Senate floor that
they must help quash political rebellion, and being targeted
for narrative control influence by
the US military, there’s vanishingly little difference between what’s
happening more and more to political speech with these tech giants
and what happens in overtly totalitarian governments. The only
difference is the stories people choose to tell themselves about it.

The time to speak up
about this silencing is now. Your voice is next.
