As Democratic lawmakers propose bills that would purge Congress of Republican representatives, Big Tech is also censoring Conservative or even right-leaning voices. Most recently this is seen in massive purges of users and groups including the popular #WalkAway movement.
Dang @jack this is a heck of haircut of followers I’m getting. Lots of folks complaining as the purge seems vindictive and politically motivated.
I don’t mind you jettisoning bots but they have free reign. Can you give me something I can share with others expressing concern?

Twitter continues the great purge! They deleted over 2000 followers from my account in just 24 hours.
What does it mean? It means that they decided for thousands of people who they need to follow. They violated the will of the followers! Tyranny at its best! Welcome to 2021— Amir Tsarfati (@BeholdIsrael) January 8, 2021

But it doesn’t stop with Twitter and Facebook, nor with just individual Conservative voices.
Instagram just deleted my pictures from the capital that show that people were peacefully there and threatened to delete my account. pic.twitter.com/ug58cjny7P

In an effort to rid the country of any residual pro-democracy voices, authorities are literally purging the country of those individuals by arresting and detaining them. And guess how it started?
By silencing their voices.
