Buried Opinions...
Anti-War seems to be a sore subject in the United States. The United States spends more on the military than
90% of other countries. In a way, this provides proof of the value of war and protection in the United States. If the country didn't plan on going to war at any point, they wouldn't spend so much funding on the military. While the country is built on the First Amendment, somehow opinions that don’t agree with the U.S.'s point of view on war seems to be hidden and hard to find.
While the government cant take down the websites because of prior restraint, they can find a way to suppress the information and make it hard to find. These groups pose as a threat to the government's support and because of this, the government does anything they can to keep the information from being easy to access. To keep these voices from spreading and regaining the support they had in the 60's, I think the government keeps them hard to find because a large group that opposes the government weakens their power across the world.
On
The American Conservative, there was an article referencing the troop deployment in Eastern Europe. In the article's title they slash Biden's name and blame everything that could happen on him. On
anti-war the same kind of thing took place in an article talking about Russia. I think the government keeps these websites and articles hard to find because they don't want any of the opinions shared on these websites to grow and cause a heavy opposition to the government. Like I previously said, the government wants to keep the United States as a powerhouse across the world, and any conflict within the country weakens their reputation around the world. Only, they can't completely restrict their voices from being heard because they are doing nothing that violates the First Amendment, so suppressing the information is the only thing the government can do.
