New York’s Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul has revealed that the state is conducting tyrannical surveillance measures to supposedly tackle so-called “hate speech.”

According to Hochul, the state is running “surveillance efforts” to monitor the social media posts of New Yorkers to counter online “negativity” and “hate speech.”

The governor claims that New York is collecting data from social media because of a rise in anti-Semitic attacks.

Hochul spoke to the media to following a meeting with the state’s Jewish leaders, local law enforcement, and federal authorities.

During the press conference, Hochul unveiled her plans to allegedly combat hate crimes.
