The difference between an activist and a journalist is that activists shout their opinions at you, whereas journalists adopt a pose of objectivity while cherry-picking Experts to shout their opinions at you. An example is a recent NBC piece calling for even more draconian censorship on social media so as to silence resistance to the LGBT agenda:

For the second year in a row, the five largest social media platforms received failing grades on LGBTQ safety, according to a report from GLAAD, an LGBTQ media advocacy group.

“Safety” in this context means “compliance.”

GLAAD’s second annual Social Media Safety Index graded Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube on LGBTQ safety, privacy and expression using 12 LGBTQ-specific standards. GLAAD found that all five of the platforms scored below 50%.

To score 100% would require every public communication to be devoted to obsequiously praising sexual perversion and the corruption of children.

“LGBTQ people are under attack right now,” Sarah Kate Ellis, president and CEO of GLAAD, said in the report.

LGBT militants are at the top of the cultural Marxist hierarchy. They represent a tiny minority of the population, yet dictate terms of existence to the rest of society as they defile cherished institutions that have endured for millennia. Yet we are told they are put upon, on the grounds that “far-right pundits and even some Republican officials” refer to the LGBT groomers who have become so prevalent in our society as “groomers.”

NBC News describes attempts to protect children from groomers who sexualize, homosexualize, and transsexualize underage victims as “targeting transgender youth” — as if the children were depraved before the groomers got to them. As usual, decent, sane people who try to do good are cast as the villains.

To promote the corruption of children in particular and LGBT domination of American culture in general, social media platforms need to crack down harder on dissident thought — i.e., all criticism of the LGBT agenda. GLAAD provides NBC with shovelfuls of meaningless data on how oppressed crybullying LGBTers feel themselves to be as a result of reading things online that they don’t agree with.

Social media platforms will be happy to respond to this pressure with still more censorship. But Democrats will no doubt pass legislation making it mandatory anyway.

The piece adds balance at the end by quoting someone who believes in free speech and moral decency. Just kidding; that would get an activist I mean journalist fired at NBC News.
