Big Tech is interfering in our elections more than any Russians could ever dream of.

Last week, Twitter banned the managed campaign accounts of British activist Tommy Robinson and British YouTube commentator Sargon of Akkad, who are both running in elections for the European Parliament.

"This is election interference," UKIP said.

Official UKIP MEP Campaign account @CarlUKIP of which Carl Benjamin has no access to has been suspended from @Twitter.

This is election interference, and UKIP will get to the bottom of this. @TwitterSupport

The whole manufactured scandal over "Russian interference" was just an excuse for Big Tech to work together with the government to censor anti-establishment voices.

The same "Russian interference" narrative was not only used in the US but was also recycled and used in the UK, Germany, Sweden and throughout the EU to justify the new Big Tech censorship regime we now find ourselves under.
