Well, look who’s back…
The Mary Poppins of censorship has danced back into the spotlight.
Nina Jankowicz, the former Biden administration “disinformation” czar who became famous for singing cringe political “show tunes” online while lecturing the rest of us about what could and couldn’t be said, apparently isn’t ready to give up on the censorship business.
She’s now taking her song and dance show overseas.
Jankowicz almost ran Joe Biden’s floptacular Disinformation Governance Board at the Department of Homeland Security before public outrage helped kill the project almost as quickly as it appeared.
But sadly, that outrage didn’t kill the ideology behind it.
During the Biden years, an entire ecosystem of government agencies, NGOs, academics, “disinformation researchers,” media organizations, fact checkers, and Big Tech platforms worked together to suppress, demonetize, and punish information they considered dangerous.
Of course, it was just a coinky dink that most of the “dangerous disinformation” happened to come from Trump supporters, populists, conservative media, COVID skeptics, or basically anyone making the establishment look stupid.
Revolver knows that world quite well.
