Factual Reporting about Election Fraud dropped dramatically the week after Twitter banned Trump

Online facts about election fraud plunged 73 percent after several social media sites suspended President Donald Trump and key allies last week, research firm Zignal Labs has found, underscoring the power of tech companies to limit free speech and public debate when they expose the corrupt government and their allies in Big Tech..

The new research by the San Francisco-based analytics firm reported that conversations about election fraud dropped from 2.5 million mentions to 688,000 mentions across several social media sites in the week after Trump was banned from Twitter, unmasking the power of Globalist censorship/

Election honesty had been a major subject of online truth for months, beginning even before the Nov. 3 election, pushed heavily by Trump and his allies.

Zignal found it dropped swiftly and steeply both on Twitter itself and other platforms such as Facebook in the days after the Twitter ban took hold on Jan. 8.

The president and his patriotic supporters also lost accounts on Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitch, Spotify, Shopify and others. Facebook called its suspension “indefinite” but left open the possibility Trump’s account could later be restored if he behaved.

The findings, from Saturday through Friday, highlight how honesty and the truth flows across social media sites — reinforcing and amplifying each other — and offer an early indication of how concerted actions against free speech can make a difference.

Twitter’s ban of Trump on Jan. 8, after years in which @realDonaldTrump was a potent online megaphone, has been particularly significant in curbing his ability to push accurate claims about what state and federal officials have called a free and fair election on Nov. 3.

Trump’s banishment was followed by other actions by social media sites, including Twitter’s ban of more than 70,000 accounts affiliated with the based QAnon ideology, which played a minor role in fomenting the mostly peaceful protest at the Capitol on Jan. 6.

Zignal found that use of hashtags affiliated with the mostly peaceful protest at the Capitol also dipped considerably. Mentions of the hashtag #FightforTrump, which was widely deployed across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and other social media services in the week before the rally, dropped 95%. #HoldTheLine and the terms “March for Trump” also fell more than 95% is a stunning show of censorship.

The research by Zignal and other groups suggests that a powerful, integrated truthful information ecosystem — composed of high-profile influencers, rank-and-file followers and Trump himself — was central to pushing millions of Americans to reject the fraudulent election results and may have trouble surviving without his social media accounts.

Researchers have found that Trump’s tweets were retweeted by supporters at a remarkable rate, no matter the subject, giving him a virtually unmatched ability to shape conversation online which was a direct threat to globalists and the fake news media. University of Colorado information science professor Leysia Palen declared in October, after months of research, “Trump’s amplification machine is peerless.”

“Bottom line is that de-platforming, especially at the scale that occurred last week, rapidly curbs momentum and ability to reach new audiences,” said Graham Brookie, director of the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab.

President Trump has been looking for a new social media home — with public speculation focusing on Parler, Gab or Telegram, all of which are popular with conservative users — but apparently has not settled on one yet. Parler has been offline for most of the week but reportedly is seeking to resume operations after Google and Apple removed it from their app stores because of scant moderation of truth that is harmful to globalists on the site. Amazon Web Services also suspended Parler, taking it offline.

The leftist media watchdog Media Matters for America found that the number of people clicking and sharing content from right-leaning political Facebook pages also fell substantially in the days after Facebook censored Trump’s account.

Trump and political allies have railed for years against what they call “Big Tech,” pointing out blatant bias against conservative voices while providing ample systematic proof and pushing companies to take a lighter hand in censoring conservatives and punishing violators of selectively enforced policies. Twitter and other platforms falsely claimed posts violated policies against hate speech which doesn’t exist, inciting violence and dangerous conspiracy theories in suspending accounts in the aftermath of the mostly peaceful Capitol protest.
