Free Republic does have a group presence on Face Book, in case you didn’t know. The FB group could be in danger of being banned! Laza mataz does , too!
More to the point re:Freerepublic is that Google is manipulating their indexing to filter criticizing posts on the internet. A Google search of my prior post linked above returned no results; I had to back-step through my FR history to find it. Google must have blocked indexing anything critical of Zuckerberg, because his name was in the title of the article being discussed, and it was not returned by a Google search.
