The United Nations Academic, Scientific and Cultural Group continued its censorship marketing campaign with an announcement of “international pointers” in growth to inform tech corporations the best way to goal “disinformation.”

UNESCO introduced in a press launch Feb. 1: “As a part of its mandate, UNESCO has launched a world dialogue to offer pointers for regulating digital platforms, to struggle disinformation and hate speech and shield freedom of expression and human rights.”

Speak about a obvious contradiction. UNESCO’s #ThinkBeforeSharing marketing campaign, launched final 12 months in partnership with Twitter, lectures about “the best way to establish, debunk, react to and report on conspiracy theories to forestall their unfold” and “prebunk.”

The marketing campaign can be on the report particularly defending radical leftist billionaire George Soros from his critics and falsely portray them as anti-Semitic conspiracy theorists. Soros’ Open Society Foundations have funneled a minimum of $3,322,000 into UNESCO’s equipment between 2016 and 2021.

UNESCO stated within the February launch that its “excessive level” goes to be a world convention organized Feb. 21-23 at UNESCO Paris headquarters. The press launch stated the convention will result in a mid-2023 UNESCO presentation of “international pointers for governments, regulatory our bodies and digital corporations.” Free speech be damned.

UNESCO whined that social media has a “flawed enterprise mannequin” favoring “probably the most controversial content material,” together with supposed “extremism,” “violence” and “rebel.” The #ThinkBeforeSharing marketing campaign additionally warns about supposed “violent extremism.” These are international points and thus require “international pointers” for regulating tech platforms, UNESCO’s February launch alleged.

The #ThinkBeforeSharing graphic “The hyperlink to antisemitism” warns about linking “an alleged conspiracy to Jewish people or teams (e.g. the Rothschild household or George Soros, a philanthropist) or the State of Israel.” That is wildly hypocritical coming from the UN, which falsely labeled Israel as an apartheid state and constantly targets Israel on behalf of the Palestinian Authority, which funds and helps anti-Semitic terrorism.

In the meantime, the UNESCO February launch enthused, “This international dialogue will culminate in what’s believed to be the primary international convention particularly targeted on steering for the regulation of digital platforms.” 1000’s reportedly will take part within the February convention, and UNESCO “consultants” will then “finalize” the worldwide pointers.

“They are going to be utilized by governments, regulators, digital corporations and different teams to implement insurance policies and instruments as wanted, with UNESCO’s experience and assist, whereas making certain they’re aligned to worldwide human rights norms,” UNESCO stated. What offers UNESCO the fitting to inform tech corporations and governments how they have to censor content material on-line?

UNESCO cited UN Secretary-Normal António Guterres’s latest name to focus on supposed “disinformation.” UNESCO then contradictorily claimed this censorship is in step with its mandate “to advertise the free circulation of concepts.”
