Member of the Assembly of Deputies of Romania George Simion told Human Events Senior Editor Jack Posobiec what free speech on social media means to his campaign and his country.
Simion credited social media with ending mainstream media’s ability to ignore and silence disfavored candidates during a Friday interview on Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec. Simion, the winner of 41% of the vote in the May 4 first round of Romania’s presidential election, praised Elon Musk for striking a blow against censorship on social media. “It is important that you have a platform that doesn’t exercise censorship like [Big Tech] they did, like banning the account of President Trump,” he said.
