Facebook defends decision to keep up Pelosi video
The Hill ^ | 28-05-19 | MAGGIE MILLER

Posted on 05/28/2019 2:59:57 PM PDT by Monrose72

A Facebook representative on Tuesday defended the company’s decision to not take down a video of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) that was meant to make her appear drunk, saying flagging the video and not removing it promoted user choice. Neil Potts, Facebook’s public policy manager, said taking that approach allows people to understand what the video is and why it has been flagged. “It is our policy to inform people when we have information that might be false on the platform so they can make their own decisions about that content,” Potts said during a meeting of the International Grand Committee on Big Data, Privacy, and Democracy in Ottawa, Canada.

Since she’s not progressive enough and needs to be replaced.

I want to see a comparison to the allegedly UNdoctored version...because just about EVERY time I’ve seen her on video she IS a goofy chick. I remember the SOTU address where she didnt say a word...she didnt have to. She sat right behind Trump and did her jaw spaz thing and pretended to read the speech manuscript. She picked up the script and put it down probably 20 times during the course of the address. And then that goofball nutzo clap thing...

Awe geeze...and then her and Schumer standing there looking like Lurch and (fill in the blank) after the emergency declaration...

Pelosi has been out to lunch for months.

...meant to make her appear drunk...

The video was an accurate compilation of her answering questions. The drunken appearance is on her, not the video.

I have seen Pelosi speak on television often, not a pleasant thing to see. She shows no signs of inebriation due to alcohol. She shows all the signs of senile dementia.

It is truly a terrible disease and I do not even wish it on Pelosie. On a political basis it is good. She has become a stuttering forgetful person struggling for words. Of this I pity her. She will not step down unless forced out. She clings to power as her basic motivation although suffering from probable senile dementia.

Is this the same video where she says "three things" and holds up two fingers.

Isn't counting fingers what coaches do to see if your brain is okay?

But..... it isn’t fake. There are numerous audio track comparisons... proving there is no tampering- and that something is definited “off” with Pelosi and her language center area of her brain. As in— early stage either alcoholic induced vascular dementia (this is a real diagnosis btw), or that she is drunk a good part of the day, and this condition does not lend itself to cogent sentence construction. This is hugely entertaining that farce buch is keep it on their platform for the condition of “open sourcing” and questioning of validity. In the best of all possible scenarios, the dumba@@es don’t realize this is not altered. It’ real. Slurred speech, odd word combinations and phrases... all of that.

There are multiple videos. One apparently was somewhat slowed, to exaggerate what the unaltered ones showed.

My observation as well - or at least a prominent slowing.
