Why are Dissenting Views on Lockdown & How to Combat Coronavirus Marginalised in MSM & Social Media?

New Culture Forum - Ein Podcast von New Culture Forum - Samstags

On #NCFCounterCulture this week our panel discuss why dissenting views on lockdown and approaches to tackling coronavirus, even when expressed by leading scientists and experts, are increasingly marginalised in both the MSM and on social media, where censorship is widespread & deplatforming rising. This is all the more worrying given that the justification for lockdown in the UK appears to have changed considerably over time -- a situation that necessitates close scrutiny, discussion and transparency if public trust is to be maintained. Our Panel: * Tom Slater, Deputy Editor at Spiked & Edtior of "Unsafe Space: The Crisis of Free Speech on Campus" * Zuby, a rapper, podcast host, author, public speaker and creative entrepreneur who has experienced social media censorship. * Rafe Heydel-Mankoo of the New Culture Forum, Historian & Broadcaster. -------------- SUPPORT/DONATE: "NCF Counterculture" & "So What You're Saying Is.." are still very new and to continue to produce quality programming we need your support.
