“BEWARE OF TELEGRAM! CONTROLLED OPPOSITION SURVEILLANCE TRAP… DID YOU KNOW THAT THE FOUNDER OF TELEGRAM, PAVEL DUROV, IS A MEMBER OF THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM, THE GLOBALIST ORGANIZATION WORKING HAND IN HAND WITH THE UN, WHO, AND BILL AND MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION? NOT TO MENTION DUROV IS WORTH $17.2 BILLION… HE IS PART OF THE ELITE! TELEGRAM IS MOST LIKELY SURVEILLANCE AND MONITORING DISGUISED AS A ‘FREE SPEECH’ PLATFORM,” says a meme posted by Islamophobic alt-right freak and failed Republican congressional candidate Laura Loomer… on Telegram.
The using a social media platform to complain about said platform is such a well-worn MAGA trope these days that part barely sticks out, save for the fact that it’s Telegram, which doesn’t censor anything. Maybe Loomer and her pals should’ve noticed something was suspicious when they realized that, unlike many other platforms in its “free speech” cohort, Telegram actually works pretty well – something that requires “elite” level capital to pay for.
