The attack on Facebook could actually end up making things worse for conservatives.

The last controversial thing that Zuckerberg said was that he would allow Holocaust deniers to continue to post on Facebook as long as they didn't incite violence.

This was the straw that broke the camel's back. NOT anything about hi-tech censorship.

This could be the beginning of a push by the left to get hate speech legislation through Congress.

Even if anyone outside the conservosphere really cares about shadow banning, demonetization, etc. the left and their MSM spokesfags will twist this into a crusade for hate speech legislation.

Then we'll be as bad off as the UK and many on FR will be in danger of suffering the same fate as Tommy Robinson.

This must be stopped by a law protecting the civil right of political affiliation and speech from discrimination.

Those of us in high tech have tried to tell the GOP-e it has been going on for 20 years.
They are just slightly more open about it now.
People were afraid to let anyone know as the very real possibility it damage their carrier.

Neither Facebook or Twitter have a monopoly on the dissemination of information.

Therefore their censorship is their business, nobody else’s.

If you don’t like what they do, unsubscribe. If you do not, you MUST like what they do. There is no other explanation.
