Not many people under 50? I don’t know the exact demographics, but Facebook is the new MySpace. The younger crowd isn’t even into Twitter that much anymore. It’s mainly Insty and SnapChat. My mom, mother-in-law, and their friends are all about Facebook.
Agreed. Good post. BTW, I *don’t* have a Facebook account, secondary to most of the reasons listed above. Schmuckerberg can waste someone else’s time.
Having experienced FB censoring first hand yes they do censor pro-conservative viewpoints or anti-muslim articles that were based on truth.

So true. I enjoy FB, especially since I’ve been housebound quite a bit lately.
It’s for personal use only and I do not use it to post any political stance good or bad.
It’s a place to share pics and general life updates with friends. It takes some self control, because I’d love to share certain political findings. But, I don’t. Honestly, I wish more people would leave politics off FB.
As a publicly traded company Facebook, and Zuckerberg, are ultimately answerable to shareholders.
65 year old baby boomers are all over facebook. Under 30’s? Not so much.
Facebook and Google are leftist propaganda outlets, which is fine until they argue that they aren’t. And then it’s just ridiculous.
The person has a great point.
Facebook should admit that do slant it, but that’s about it. That way people can make an informed decision.
Beyond that, you don’t have to read it.
So if progressives do something conservatives should disenpower themselves and not do the same thing if it’s a useful tactic.
Said every liberal republican.
Yes we should boycott, yes we should hold demostrations, yes we should stand up for our liberty.
They claim to be all for fairness and diversity. Diversity of thought includes a conservative point of view. Do they “owe” us a conservative voice. No of course not. The whole article was shooting fish in a barrel. Will they provide more of a conservative voice so they appear more fair to conservatives? Maybe so, just to deal with their own internal desire to promote diversity, or to enhance their reputation? This is why pressure on them to show more of a conservative point of view is good. Not because they legally “owe it” to anyone, but because it may be in their own best self interests.
It’s a sleazy, irresponsible company run by greedy liberal hacks who deserve to rot in Hell for all eternity.
But no, they don’t owe me anything.
The only people I know who are really, really into Facebook and other social media are all either former 60’s era hippies or former 70’s era punks who are all screaming, raging libs.
Everyone else I know is quiet, conservative, has a life and is living it w/O social media.
This might explain why these nuts think “everybody” agrees with them on extreme left issues and why they have such a bizarre view of the world.
I feel so left out.........../s
Facebook will give a leftist administration anything they want, quietly, to help stem rebellion by lovers of America. A conservative administration trying to preserve and protect the Constitution, not so much.
“Many conservatives have feigned outrage over this revelation, crying as though they have some infringed-upon right to something they don’t – equal access to someone else’s property.”
Being lied to is reason to be outraged.
The better alternative to “regulating Facebook” is to come up with a Right alternative, and let Facebook lose half its users.
After this election cycle, ClownHall.com is must don’t-read material.
