YouTube has once again temporarily suspended Senator Ron Johnson’s over COVID “misinformation.”
Johnson has frequently criticized the government’s “authoritarian” responses. Johnson was suspended for stating that vaccines were unsafe during a roundtable discussion.
“The updated figures today are 17,619,” Johnson said. “That is 225 times the number of deaths in just a 10-month period versus an annual figure for the flu vaccine. These vaccine injuries are real.”
YouTube claimed that the short version without controversial content was still available on its platform.
“We craft our policies to reduce the risk of real-world harm, updating them as official guidance evolves, and we consider the context of a video to make exceptions that balance open discussion of people’s experiences with preventing the spread of harmful misinformation,” a YouTube spokesperson said.
Johnson said that the ban was due to Big Tech censorship.
“Once again Big Tech is censoring the truth,” Johnson said in a statement discussing the ban. “Why won’t they let the vaccine injured tell their stories and medical experts give a second opinion? Why can’t we discuss the harmful effects of mandates? The Biden administration, federal health agencies and other mandates must be ignored. What number of lives are likely to be destroyed?
Johnson was previously suspended from YouTube for his comments on Hydroxychloroquine.
“YouTube’s ongoing COVID censorship proves they have accumulated too much unaccountable power,” he told Fox News at the time.
