Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, appeared on ABC News admitting FB is classifying the Covid-19 Stay-at-Home protests as “harmful misinformation”, shutting down pages and suspending users. Under the same breath this monster said, “We do classify that as harmful misinformation and we take that down. Um at the same time you know it’s important that people can debate policies, so there’s a line on this, but you know more than normal political discourse I think a lot of the stuff that people are saying that is false around a health emergency like this can be classified as..is is harmful misinformation.”
Who made FB the final say on what is or isn’t harmful misinformation? Their fact-checkers? Who, if you don’t know, are just media hacks like US Today, Politico etc. They never use a Right leaning site to fact-check, when they’re not just flat-out shadowbanning a page like yours truly. FYI this post citing a 2015 research study conducted by labs in the US, Switzerland and China was completely sandbagged. There is no bias in the piece, it’s information pointing a direct finger where the virus came from.
There are a lot of questions rising up now over this pandemic, especially how it has been handled by the media and special interests. They have caused mass hysteria over a bug that has killed less Americans than those from suicide to heart disease or cancer. So of course Americans are protesting their tyrant leaders, like MI Gov Whitmer, who have implemented over-the-top restrictions on citizens. People know how to police themselves and want to go back to work, but Zuckerberg and company want to silence that – they want people under govts thumb.
Zuckerberg is and has been out of control censoring users. FB is not a social media platform when they’re banning users for invoking their First Amendment rights over what they say or organize. NO ONE is being hurt at these protests, they’re peaceful and sending clear message to the Powers That Be the people have had enough.
It is time for Congress to pull the plug on any and all tax incentives and whatever else govt freebie FB is getting. They need to be regulated along with Twitter, Google/YouTube and several others.
