Left-Wing Scholar Pushes to Censor Social Media Accounts Opposing Child Sex Trafficking by Tying Them to QAnon Movement
This scholar is doing PR for predators.

Academic scholar Marc-André Argentino of the Global Network on Extremism & Technology is attempting to get social media accounts that are raising awareness of child sex trafficking thrown off of social media by tying them to the controversial QAnon movement.
Argentino is demonizing 114 groups that are raising awareness of child sex trafficking that he wants thrown off of social media because he claims they are affiliated with QAnon:
2/ Using @crowdtangle aggregate membership on September 16 was ~330K and a week later it is at 505k this represents growth of 3,028.66% since July 2020. The spike in the community started the week of July 26th pic.twitter.com/boh36dw3XD

4/ A similar trend can be seen with interaction rates as there have been 9.22M interaction since Janurary 2020, though 8.95M of these (663k per week) have occured since July 2020. pic.twitter.com/DXcqmveth5

6/ It is very likely that the "save the/our children" narratives are not going to be sustained long term without some injection of content to feed the communities here. It is hard to determine if this has anything to do with measures put in place by Facebook at this time.

8/ These groups have driven a fair amount of traffic to these QAnon/ QAnon adjacent videos in July and August. Traffic to most of this content had died down prior to the save our/the children takeover. pic.twitter.com/PuF76Gy6Xk

Argentino made it clear that he is concerned with protecting potential pedophiles from repercussions from their predatory actions against children:
10/ Some of these communities have some concerning patterns of behaviors: there is some doxxing of people that "look like pedophiles", or who people claim are pedophiles without evidence, there are calls to harass them on social media and at home.
— Marc-André Argentino (@_MAArgentino) September 23, 2020
12/ However, there are some groups that provide the information for the proper channels and ask members in these groups to flood the hotlines and email boxes with requests. Again with QAnon's poor research skills this is draining resources away from real and important tips
— Marc-André Argentino (@_MAArgentino) September 23, 2020
14/ There are also some groups that are pretending to be CSOs or NGO working against child trafficking and soliciting donations, though they do not appear to be any real org based on some searches I did quickly yesterday. If this is the case, this is egregious behavior.

He posted that he will be working on demonizing Christian, pro-life groups that are focused on stopping child sex trafficking next:
16/ there is a possibility that part of this community may shift away from QAnon and into more of the christian/pro-life communities or a symbiosis of QAnon with christian/pro-life communities. This is something to keep an eye on as I am seeing hints of it.

Darren Beattie of Revolver pointed out the agenda behind Argentino’s work. Argentino is aggressively demonizing activists who are raising awareness about the exploitation of children.
Now it’s politically incorrect to be anti child trafficking because qanon—-any group opposing child trafficking evidently must be harassed monitored and censored.
Incredible power grab. https://t.co/oHUDHHWh1o

Big League Politics has reported on how establishment politicians from both major political parties have demonized the QAnon movement in an attempt to deflect from the depravity that they are engaging in behind the scenes:
Several Congressmen are going to war with the QAnon conspiracy theory.
On August 25, 2020, Republican Congressman Denver Riggleman and Democrat Congressman Tom Malinowski introduce a resolution to condemn the conspiracy movement and demand that law enforcement crack down on criminal activity that its supporters carry out.
Riggleman tweeted “QAnon and the conspiracy theories it promotes are a danger and a threat that has no place in our country’s politics. I condemn this movement and urge all Americans to join me in taking this step to exclude them and other extreme conspiracy theories from the national discourse.
The resolution describes QAnon as one of the “fringe political conspiracy theories” that authorities believe is likely to incite violence.
With several Republican candidates who have allegedly supported QAnon in the past now potentially making their way to Congress, establishment gatekeepers in both parties are becoming jittery.
Whether or not such conspiracies have validity is for curious Americans to decide through their own investigation.
The real question we should be asking is why a Republican like Riggleman is wasting his time trying to introduce a resolution with a Democrat?
After all, this is a time when there’s an existential threat of radical leftists tearing up the streets across the nation. This merits a full-fledged response from the GOP. Focusing on anything else is a complete waste of time and political capital.

Free Speech
Does the Arizona Constitution Provide Means for Lawmakers to Crack Down on Big Tech Censorship?
Does the Arizona Constitution provide protections from Big Tech?

The Arizona Constitution provides stronger protections for freedom of speech than the First Amendment does, potentially providing legislative solutions to Big Tech censorship in the state at a moment where political censorship is more pervasive than ever.
Article 2 Section 6, Arizona Constitution states that “Every person may freely speak, write, and publish on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of that right. “
This differs greatly from the federal constitution in that it doesn’t limit the powers of a legislature to restrict freedom of speech. The US Constitution identifies “Congress” as the body it’s restricting from making a law abridging the freedom of speech.
The speech rights established by the Arizona Constitution are thus expressed positively; recognizing a right belonging to the people, as opposed to negating an infringement of said right.
Quite obviously, the Arizona Constitution was written in an 1910, an era in which the internet would’ve been just as inconceivable as it was in 1789.
In a 2019 Arizona Supreme Court case, the state’s highest court recognized in a 4-3 judgement that the Arizona Constitution provided greater protections than the federal constitution. The case recognized that violations of the First Amendment would represent de facto violations of the
It’s not outside the realm of possibility that the Arizona Attorney General, or state legislature, could hold Big Tech oligarchs to account for violating the Article 2 Section 6 rights of Arizona citizens- especially in a context the major platforms are collectively adjudicated to be acting as a trust in order to suppress competition and silence lawful speech.
Three Arizona legislators called upon Attorney General Mark Brnovich to begin an antitrust investigation into Big Tech oligarchs following the coordinated deplatforming operation against Parler, in which both Amazon and Apple colluded to restrict the free speech platform from the internet.
In an era where the overwhelming majority of free speech is communicated online, the censorious actions of Big Tech very plausibly represent an assault of the right of free expression guaranteed in the Arizona Constitution. Both chambers of Arizona’s legislature remain Republican, even as the state has become purple, and action against Big Tech censorship on the state level could become a real possibility in the coming years.
