In response to “fact checkers,” Facebook last year banned @EpochTimes for saying arctic sea ice wasn’t declining. But @EpochTimes was right. Even @guardian now admits it. Mark Zuckerberg @finkd — you owe an apology to everyone you censored. pic.twitter.com/BN6NP7omaL

In a stunning admission that exposes the crumbling facade of climate alarmism, even the left-wing Guardian newspaper reported on August 20, 2025, a “dramatic slowdown in melting of Arctic sea ice” that has surprised scientists, attributing it primarily to natural climate variation rather than fossil fuel emissions. This revelation, buried in their own headlines, directly contradicts years of doomsday predictions pushed by globalist elites. Yet, as conservative investigative journalist Michael Shellenberger highlighted in his explosive X thread, Facebook—under Mark Zuckerberg’s iron fist—banned reputable outlets like The Epoch Times just last year for daring to report that Arctic sea ice wasn’t declining as alarmists claimed.
Shellenberger, a former Time magazine “Hero of the Environment,” called out Zuckerberg directly: “You owe an apology to everyone you censored.” This isn’t just a mistake; it’s part of a systematic campaign by Big Tech to suppress dissenting voices on “fake climate science,” punishing those who refuse to toe the leftist line and promoting anti-American propaganda that undermines free speech and energy independence. Facebook’s censorship machine has long targeted climate skeptics, labeling factual reports on natural climate cycles as “misinformation” while amplifying hysterical claims about man-made global warming. Conservative sources have documented how anti-fossil fuel lobbyists pressured Facebook to ban opposing science, turning the platform into a tool for green extremists. Continued below this next clip
The climate change hoax was manufactured for the sole purpose of implementing UN Agenda 21 (which later became Agenda 2030), as explained by Glenn Beck back in 2012.#ClimateScam #ClimateCult #ClimateHoax #NetZero #Agenda21 #Agenda2030 #GreatReset pic.twitter.com/7tfxo6FgqU

In 2020, these lobbyists ramped up efforts to silence publications questioning climate alarmism, with Facebook complying by demonetizing and shadow-banning content that highlighted the role of natural factors like solar activity or ocean currents in weather patterns. This isn’t about truth—it’s about control. As one Newsmax report detailed, Big Tech giants like Facebook, YouTube, and Google have bowed to pressure from eco-radicals, effectively banning ads and monetization for climate change skeptics.
The result? A one-sided narrative that paints America as the villain for its fossil fuel success, while ignoring how energy independence under leaders like President Trump boosted the economy and national security. Take the case of Michael Shellenberger himself. In 2020, Facebook censored him for sharing accurate information about climate change, a move that only came to light thanks to Elon Musk’s transparency after acquiring Twitter (now X). Shellenberger’s book, “Apocalypse Never,” debunked exaggerated claims about environmental doom, but Facebook’s “fact-checkers”—often funded by leftist organizations—slapped warnings on his posts and reduced their reach. This is the same platform that allowed Al Gore’s wild predictions about vanishing Arctic ice to spread unchecked, even as reality proved him wrong time and again. Continued below this next clip
Seems the world is waking up to the wef scam! Fake climate change, all because they crave power to rule the world population. They underestimated how hard it would be to control us lol

Gore, who claimed over a decade ago that the Arctic would be ice-free by now, has never faced censorship; instead, skeptics like Shellenberger are punished for pointing out the obvious. Reputable sites and individuals have been hit hard. The Epoch Times, a conservative-leaning outlet known for its investigative journalism, was outright banned from Facebook for accurately reporting on stable Arctic ice levels—facts now echoed by the Guardian. Breitbart reported how climate alarmists urged social media to flag accounts of skeptics, creating a chilling effect where scientists and commentators fear professional ruin for questioning the dogma.
Even Australia’s top marine scientist, Peter Ridd, was censored on Facebook after fact-checkers falsely claimed the Great Barrier Reef was dying due to climate change—ignoring data showing record coral growth. These “fact-checkers,” as Shellenberger notes, are often liars spreading disinformation to justify censorship, from the Hunter Biden laptop to transgender issues. Facebook’s actions go beyond mere bias; they’re anti-American. By suppressing voices that defend fossil fuels—the backbone of U.S. energy dominance—Zuckerberg aids a globalist agenda that weakens America. Conservative outlets like Fox News have exposed how this censorship aligns with Democrat priorities, such as Biden’s green policies that crippled domestic drilling while enriching foreign adversaries.
Climate Change and Greenhouse Effect Con Artists At it now for over 4 decades.
In 2024, House Republicans uncovered how Facebook colluded with the Biden administration to censor “true information” critical of their policies, including climate skepticism. This isn’t free enterprise; it’s state-sponsored propaganda, violating the First Amendment and echoing communist tactics to control thought.The propaganda extends to everyday Americans. Fox News commentator John Stossel was targeted for videos questioning climate hysteria, with YouTube (owned by Google) adding “information panels” that dismissed skepticism as fringe, even when backed by data. Stossel argued that social media censorship doesn’t fix bad speech—it stifles debate. Meanwhile, eco-activists like Ella Emhoff push “climate anxiety” narratives on platforms without pushback, using plastic bags hypocritically while scaring youth into doubting life’s basics.
This fear-mongering has real consequences: young people influenced by censored platforms are less likely to support pro-growth policies, perpetuating dependency on government handouts. NBC’s Chuck Todd exemplified the media-Big Tech nexus by defending his refusal to host climate skeptics on air, claiming the science is “settled.” But as the Guardian’s recent report shows, it’s anything but. Volcanoes, not vehicles, play a huge role in climate variation, yet posts highlighting this are flagged. On X, users decry how Facebook’s “fact-checkers” censored volcanic activity discussions as “misinformation.” This selective enforcement protects the green energy scam, funneling billions to cronies while Americans pay higher bills.Punishment is overdue. Zuckerberg’s recent admissions of Biden-era pressure to censor don’t absolve him— they indict him.
Conservatives demand accountability: strip Section 230 protections, fine Big Tech for viewpoint discrimination, and investigate ties to foreign influences like China, which funds energy lawsuits while polluting unchecked. President Trump’s administration must revive efforts to dismantle the censorship-industrial complex, as detailed in House reports. States like those threatening banks over woke policies should target Facebook next. Facebook’s role in broader censorship—COVID, Ukraine, elections—shows a pattern. Aaron Berman and Mike Bradow, key figures in Meta’s operations, expanded fact-checking to Venezuela and launched the Climate Science Information Center to control narratives. This isn’t neutral; it’s election interference, as Rubio revealed Biden’s State Department kept dossiers on Trump officials. The Guardian’s Arctic ice report is a crack in the dam. Natural variation, not CO2, drives changes—facts censored to prop up the hoax.
