(23.2.2018) When news first broke that Medium, one of my primary blogging platforms, had closed the accounts of Trump-supporting pundits Mike Cernovich, Jack Posobiec and Laura Loomer, I tweeted the following in response:
„The only people cheering for this are leftists who haven‘t been paying attention and centrists who have. This ongoing trend of marginalizing online dissent is already impacting the far left, and will do so more and more. The #MAGA crowd are the canaries in the coal mine, lefties.“
Hours later, right on cue, prominent Mother Jones Senior Reporter Shane Bauer was singing the praises of Medium‘s recent account suspensions, and tagged Medium‘s Twitter account saying they need to take it further and include left-wing writers like myself due to my repeated criticisms of the pro-regime change Syria narrative.
