So, now Cuckerberg thinks Fourth of July, the American Flag and Fireworks are "political."

This makes no sense——it’s a federal holiday and it can’t be mentioned?

This is blatant denial of Free Speech. Political or not...Free Speech is NOT subject to blocking.

Curiosity here...If you were on an upper floor of Manhattan hi-rise how many different municipal fireworks displays could one see on a clear night, July 4?

That is a common misunderstanding.

Free Speech CAN be blocked - the Constitution only limits the government from blocking free speech. Private entities (Facebook) can most certainly block people from using the Facebook property as a means of distributing speech that Facebook does not want to be associated with.

Patriotic celebrations with a Republican in office are political.

You are only allowed to celebrate when some anti-American socialist is in office.

Facebook doesn’t give a da*n about Greece. This is to justify blocking future conservative posts or events that they deem influential.. “But we blocked Greece too ! “

The men will revolt when they find that THANKSGIVING DAY will now be banned. SMH Flag Day, July 4, Christmas, Easter The little marxsist dwarf is as much a totalitarian as BO’B. Pity his family, neighbors, and friends (if he truly has any)

You won’t be seeing one in St. Paul, MN. They aren’t having one this year. The excuse is it is expensive. The real reason is that it is a symbol and celebration of American independence and it would offend all the illegal trash living here.

Regular everyday folks are waking up to the fact that Facebook, Google, Youtube, and even Netflix are the stated enemies of out people, our culture, and our continue survival.

If we did not provide such revenue they’d want us dead.

As it stands they just want us enslaved, serf-like.
