Country’s preeminent free speech advocacy organization nowhere to be found as federal government admits to colluding with Big Tech to censor Americans. July 17, 2021 Washington, DC — The New Tolerance Campaign (NTC) today launched its latest call to action highlighting the continued silence of the American Civil Liberties Union amid increasingly audacious calls from the Biden Administration for social media companies to censor and deplatform Americans. On Thursday, July 15, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki made an alarming announcement that the Biden Administration was “flagging problematic posts for Facebook that spread disinformation” about the COVID pandemic. Exactly what the President of the United States and his team deem “disinformation” was not stated. One day later, Psaki doubled down, stating people “shouldn’t be banned from one platform and not others for providing disinformation.” If you’re deemed in violation of one social media company’s terms of service, you’re apparently in violation of them all. While the federal government admitted to colluding with Big Tech to censor Americans, our country’s preeminent free speech advocacy organization the ACLU was nowhere to be found. In its 1963 ruling in Bantam Books v. Sullivan, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that government officials pressuring private actors to censor for them is a violation of the freedom of speech guaranteed by the Constitution. The Biden Administration’s actions are a clear violation of civil liberties, and until recently would have prompted an immediate response from the ACLU. “As the Biden Administration brags about silencing speech it alone deems wrongthink, the ACLU’s prolonged silence speaks volumes,” New Tolerance Campaign President Gregory T. Angelo stated. “The ongoing collaboration between the long arm of Big Tech and the heavy hand of the federal government to silence the speech of everyday citizens should alarm every American — and is in clear violation of the Constitution. It should be a natural case for the ACLU. Has the ACLU abandoned its mission? Are they happy to look the other way in service to a President more aligned with their partisan leanings? Both? The ACLU is at a crossroads — stand by your mission, or be honest and change it.” NTC’s campaign to hold the ACLU accountable allows its supporters to contact the ACLU directly with appeals to uphold its stated mission or admit they have abandoned their founding principles.

Grassroots watchdog mobilizes over 35,000 activists to confront hypocritical institutions via action campaigns to pressure leaders to do the right thing. July 12, 2021 Washington, DC — The New Tolerance Campaign (NTC) today unveiled a new push to mobilize ordinary Americans to challenge the failure of many establishment institutions to uphold clear and consistent standards of tolerance. “Though only a small grassroots start-up, the New Tolerance Campaign has amassed a network of more than 35,000 activists in all 50 states fed up with the hypocrisy of America’s institutions,” announced NTC’s new President Gregory T. Angelo. “Now we are scaling up to build an army to confront establishment enablers of ‘cancel culture’ and censorship.” Angelo will spearhead a push to grow NTC’s network to 100,000 activists. “We are focusing the energy of NTC’s grassroots army to pressure major corporations, activist nonprofits, and universities who have failed to uphold consistent standards of tolerance and instead wielded ‘tolerance’ as a tool for partisan attacks. The ‘tolerance establishment’ has lost its moral compass, so NTC is here to turn the tide.” Angelo is no stranger to combating intolerance. As the former President of Log Cabin Republicans (2013-2018), he regularly engaged with civic leaders and the media to promote civil discourse between people of faith and the LGBT community. Angelo is supported by an Advisory Board that includes former Congresswoman Nan Hayworth, political commentator Liz Wheeler, former White House official Brad Blakeman, media personality Tim Young, YouTube star Arielle Scarcella, and filmmaker Desh Amila — high-profile public figures of varied backgrounds united by their commitment to end phony tolerance. “NTC’s action campaigns mobilize members via letter-writing campaigns targeting elite leaders who engage in ‘phony tolerance’ — providing a responsible pressure voice pushing back against extremist cancel culture,” explained Angelo. “We are giving a platform to Americans fed up with ‘woke’ mob bullying and weak leaders betraying their institutions’ founding principles.” NTC will be rolling out bold new advocacy campaigns in the coming weeks. NTC also operates a confidential Whistleblower Hotline (587-DIAL-NTC) and Online Portal where supporters can report intolerance and request help from NTC’s grassroots network.
