WITH 3 BILLION USERS, FACEBOOK IS NOW MORE POWERFUL THAN MANY COUNTRIES AND CONSIDERS ITSELF TO BE A ‘SOVEREIGN STATE’ WITH THEIR OWN ‘SUPREME COURT’ by Geoffrey Grider for Now The End Begins
Back in 2018, Virgil took note of the many similarities between Zuckerberg and Augustus Caesar, the first Roman emperor. More precisely, Virgil noted the many ways—starting with Zuck’s overtly Augustan haircut—that Zuckerberg has manifestly sought to model himself after that ancient empire-builder. (We can add that Zuckerberg is hardly the only Big Tech type with grandiose ambitions; just on March 15 we learned that Tesla founder Elon Musk has changed his title at the company to “Techno King.”) Indeed, Zuckerberg and Facebook have been fashioning themselves into some sort of world state. Just last month, The New Yorker magazine published a 7,500-word article, headlined, “Inside the Making of Facebook’s Supreme Court.”
Here’s a recent headline to ponder from the Beltway-buzzy Axios: “The sovereign state of Facebook vs. the world.” The sovereign state of Facebook? Did we miss something there? Did we miss that moment when Facebook became a country and joined the United Nations?
The power and dominance of social media has created a power base that the combined military might of multiple nations cannot match, and to that point, Facebook is beginning to look on itself as a sovereign nation. When a tech company can silence a sitting United States president, that is a whole lot of power.

In case you have not been following the global trends, and we are happy to keep an end time eye on that for you, social media is the way the whole world communicates, and it is unprecedented in the annals of human history. When you add to that that nearly all social media is owned by Liberals who use their platforms to create and change public opinion, you have a weapon that even Adolf Hitler didn’t have access to, and he was able to start WWII.
The current world war underway right now, a digital war on a technological front, uses bytes instead of bullets and is decidedly more deadly and accurate. Our previous article on Biden’s boycott of Georgia, when I researched it, showed nothing but search engines results that favored the Liberal position, and not a single opposing view. Hitler burned books to get that type of censorship result, in 2021 no flame is needed. The whole world is connected to the Mark of the Beast System we call the internet, and it is only headed in one direction.
