Investigative journalist Lee Fang and researcher Jack Poulson explain how the company used sophisticated AI and censorship/propaganda pressure to push their product and silence critics.
Pharma has long been guilty of devious--and at times criminal--PR practices, although new technology has made them much more effective. What has amazed me over the past couple of years is that the so-called "liberals" are the ones cheering this on (or at least covering it up.) When did the left get in bed with Big Pharma? Mussolini famously said, "Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power." Have the "progressives" become the new face of fascism? It's all very confusing. I'd hate to be someone who woke up from a 10 year coma right now!
This as horrific as it is, does not change the fact that Moderna is a one act pony. All the spying in the world will not change this. Since you are reading this Moderna here is some free advice from a successful business owner: Spend your money on developing useful products. No amount of spying will change the fact that your one product is now largely obsolete.
It’s easy to see how this entire industry could pivot to another pharmaceutical. Imagine being called out because you’re now “anti-mental-health” because you’re against forcing people to take SSRIs. Or “anti-health” because you’re against forcing people to take weight loss injections. It’s a short step away.
