“The ‘Censorship-Industrial Complex’ is just the Military-Industrial Complex reborn for the ‘hybrid warfare’ age. Much like the war industry, pleased to call itself the ‘defense’ sector, the ‘anti-disinformation’ complex markets itself as merely defensive, designed to fend off the hostile attacks of foreign cyber-adversaries who unlike us have ‘military limitations.’ The CIC, however, is neither wholly about defense, nor even mostly focused on foreign ‘disinformation.’ It’s become instead a relentless, unified messaging system aimed primarily at domestic populations, who are told that political discord at home aids the enemy’s undeclared hybrid assault on democracy.” (05/10/23)
