LinkedIn censors article criticizing Big Tech censoring for China

Microsoft’s LinkedIn has removed a post about Peter Schweizer’s book Red-Handed, that explores connections between US elites, including those belonging to Big Tech, and Chinese authorities.

Breitbart published a story on its website – “Peter Schweizer’s Red-Handed Exposes Communist China’s Silicon Valley Sympathizers” – but a LinkedIn user who wanted to share it, along with a post referring to China’s Communist Party as “committing a genocide and having slaves in concentration camps,” was unsuccessful in doing so.

Breitbart reports that the post got deleted for violating the social network’s professional community policies. The user evidently asked for clarification about what specific rules were broken, and was reportedly told it was the guidelines on “bullying.”
