Social media footage shows rare anti-Xi Jinping protest in China

by

Chinese authorities have censored discussion of a rare protest in Beijing in which large banners were unfurled on a flyover on Thursday calling for boycotts and the removal of Xi Jinping, just days before the Communist party congress, China’s most important event of its five-year political cycle.

‘We want food, not PCR tests. We want freedom, not lockdowns. We want respect, not lies. We want reform, not a cultural revolution. We want a vote, not a leader. We want to be citizens, not slaves,’ said one banner, while a second called for a boycott of schools, strikes and the removal of President Xi.

Canada Election: Elizabeth May decries “deeply shocking” revelations about PPC

by

Speaking with reporters in Prince Edward Island on Monday, Green Party Leader Elizabeth May decried what she called the “deeply shocking” news, revealed by Global News, that former leader of a U.S. neo-Nazi group, a former Soldiers of Odin member, and a Pegida Canada official were among those whose signatures were submitted to Elections Canada last year to officially register the People’s Party of Canada.

All three of their names appear on Elections Canada documents, obtained by Global News, that confirmed a minimum of 250 party members had signed membership declarations. The forms were required to obtain party status for the PPC and its leader, Maxime Bernier.

BIG TECH OUT OF CONTROL: Conservatives slam Twitter after social media platform bans Trump

by

Donald Trump’s Twitter account has been permanently suspended “due to the risk of further incitement of violence”.

Tweets from the US president’s @realDonaldTrump handle have been wiped, with his account now showing the words: “Twitter suspends accounts which violate the Twitter Rules.”

The Twitter Safety account posted shortly afterwards, saying: “After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence.

It comes after Mr Trump was similarly banned from Facebook and Instagram following riots at the US Capitol on Wednesday.

Twitter said two of the president’s tweets posted on Friday had violated its glorification of violence policy.

The move has outraged conservatives, who claim Twitter’s decision sets a dangerous precedent when it comes to free speech.
