EU, Congress, and Silicon Valley Caught Political/Ideological Fade, Now Censoring Alt/Indy Media

How the Biden Administration Can Help Solve Our Reality Crisis

Reporter wants to install a "Reality Czar" to fight what they call disinformation.

Sounds very much like 1984 Ministry of Truth

Unless this czar were to take full control of every so-called ideological state apparatus to push government-approved narratives only, it wouldn't be similar at all

Having less newworldafros online is a good thing. I welcome the Ministry of Truth.

Exactly. I'm tired of people comparing everything to 1984. And doing it wrongly at that. I thought the article made several great points. It even touched on a way to do some of this without expanding state power.

This was also a good closing point:

“We have to treat this like we would any other social service,” Mr. Picciolini said. “We have to destroy the institutional systemic racism that creates this environment. We have to provide jobs. We have to have access to mental health care and education.”

In other words, if President Biden wants to bring extremists and conspiracy theorists back to reality, he can start by making that reality worth coming back to.
