Most of the whistle blowers are given zero airtime because they are showing how politicians and corporations collaborate to profit from the general population. Outstanding whistleblowers like Julian Assange is in jail all their lives for showing how people in power are abusing their powers. Edward Snowden had to escape to Russia because he showed how the government spies on people infringing upon their rights.

Surprisingly the new facebook whistleblower was given a lot of publicity and even given the covetted 60 minutes interview. The reason is very straightforward although most people will not see it. The reason she got publicity was because she is encouraging more censorship more control which is what the corporations and politicians want so that they can continue to enjoy their lives in their billion dollar yacht while the general populations fights for $100.

The media makes it seem like they are on the side of the people by showing this whistleblower while in the back end, they have created another campaign to restrict freedom and encourage censorship. Even FB is probably in on it as they have been criticized for their censorship but now they have more reason to censor because the whistleblower is saying they do not control enough. Facebook even turned off their service for 6 hours to make it seems like they were trying to hide something due to the whistleblower's revelations. There is no way something like that could have happened without any hacker intervention. FB has 40 plus billions in profit they have redundant infrastructures to prevent outages like what happened. Even a small million dollar company can easily place redundant infrastructure to prevent such outages. 

Inspite of their underhanded tricks you have to be amazed at how they work this system while keeping the rest of the people dumb and feeling like they are doing it for the people. The people will end up asking for more restrictions and more censorships!

Snowden, Manning, Assange were whistleblowers against the government. Haugen was a whistleblower against Facebook that is a publicly owned company. I think that is why the media has more coverage regarding this.

People are willing to ignore this as a non issue thinking FB is a publicly owned company. If you look into it a bit closely, you will see that FB along with mainstream media is the marketing wing of the government. Look at all the policies that FB upholds. If you say anything contrary to the govt dictates, FB will censor you. So will google and twitter.

JFK was way before I started becoming conscious of these things. But most likely his policy was going to reduce the power or profit of corporations or banks, who are the most powerful people in this universe. They would not let me go easily. If you do some research you will no doubt find what policy led to his assassination.

Bro people already know and they don't care. What Snowden reveled should have made people mad and things had to change but nothing changed. And what Manning leaked and all the shit that there is on wikileaks. The information is out there but people do not care. I hate Facebook and I have deleted all social media since 2018. I just hate all these social media companies and their practices.
