The only reason that leftists don’t burn books is that they don’t want to be accused of putting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
The vast majority of freedom lovers who get censored into oblivion, stay there. As intended. They can't be bothered to be honest or consistent in regards to their own policy.
“Hope they all get together, hire the best junkyard dog lawyers around, and sue the shit out of Facebook, Zuckerberg, Dorsey, etc.”
Never trust a wealthy Capo to be an honest businessman. The only way to get to them is through their wallets.
It is funny that facebook, twitter and the others don’t realize how infiltrated they are by people looking to take down those businesses...
They way to fix mistakes like this is to replace the people that wrongly pulled the posts. I bet they did not do that.
Farcebook! Perfect!
There is no way this was an accident. There is no way that Praeger U constitutes anything but a fireside chat with a wise man smoking a cigar.
FB has shown itself to be a fascist that is eliminating anything but official leftist propaganda. FB’s suckerburg needs to be in jail where his fake tears will turn into real ones.
Give it some time. We are getting there.
De-listing a small account based on some algorithm might be a mistake.
De-listing a major account with millions of followers, based on an algorithm and without prior review of the reasons by a senior executive, and without a reasonable explanation as to the specific reasons for the action, reflects corporate policy.
Hope a bazillion people close their accounts. Since when can’t you put an opinion out? Even if you’re Russian.
Want to stop it. Simple FINE THE BUMS> AND I MEAN FINE THEM> 10 Million Dollars per Incident. Unless you hit them in the pocketbook, they will continue this hate of anything positive about Pres. Trump or Conservative. And when the leftists complain about it. Tell them two words: DROP DEAD!!!!!
Trump’s tweet. Without Trump they would this with impunity. We are one election away form total intletectual tyranny.
Excuse the ignorance but what is PragerU?
Nevermind. Looked it up:
PragerU (short for Prager University) is an American non-profit organization that creates videos on various political, economic, and philosophical topics from a conservative perspective. The videos are posted on YouTube and usually feature a speaker who gives a mini-lecture for about five minutes.[1] Despite having “University” in its name, PragerU is not an academic institution, does not hold classes, and does not grant certifications or diplomas. Source Wikipedia.
Again,apologize for the ignorance. For some reason I have not been plugged in to Prager U.
Do others think it’s worth listening to?
Yes! It’s a great resource—especially good for young people who have never heard a conservative message. They’re great.
In case there are any more ignorant people out there (as I was) about PragerU = here is a good article about it....
Albeit from Motherjones.com is not the best choice of an explanatory article probably, but this one is pretty well written and gives some eyepopping figures.....such as in the title of the article:
Inside the Right-Wing YouTube Empire That’s Quietly Turning Millennials Into Conservatives
The viral videos from Dennis Prager’s “university” have clocked more than 1 billion views.
I guess I will have to add Prager U to my “diet.”
Thank you. Good to know.
I will have to direct some millenials in my family to PragerU and hope for the best.
Yep. Facebook Messenger is more than just a novelty. It's now a widely-used communication tool.
These social media platforms need to do more. Open up the algorithms that cause only conservative users to be banned.
It is good that high profile users(with plenty of money for lawyers) are being restored but it is not enough. The little guy who does not have a huge following and an alternative megaphone to cry foul.
There needs to be transparency about how these bans come about. What are the standards and what specifically triggered the ban. Improper banning should have repercussions beyond “Oops, we’re sorry.”
Imagine being arrested and told you broke a law. You are not told what action was illegal just that you are did something illegal.
Force the issue until Facebook either discloses how they ban users or stops banning conservatives for being conservative. Probably the latter since they dont want to admit wrongdoing.
Stop putting conservatives in Facebook jail.
2Facebook is perpetrating a fraud along with all the other platforms.
Imagine building a successful brick and mortar business and then the plug is pulled. You have done nothing but you are told you broke a rule but not specifically what you did that caused it.
These egregious acts scream class action. The high profile banned users need to start it and then the little guys or dont have the wherewithal to sue on their own can join.
2Facebook and other fraudsters need to be on the hook for these acts.
Ban 2Facebook!
