Today they’re apologizing. Eventually they’ll be bragging about it.

“Today they’re apologizing. Eventually they’ll be bragging about it.”

Yeah, under their breath they are probably saying “$hit they caught us again!”

Run the Constitution through Facebook’s algorithm, if it bans it, certify Facebook as a domestic enemy of the Constitution and order the company into liquidation.

These little dork mind nazis’ shelf life has expired.

FB created and loaded their dictionary of forbidden words. The program (not algorithm) found some words in the dictionary, and blocked the posting.

I’m sure it would block “bombs bursting in air” too. I doubt it would block “death to America” or “allahu akhbar”.

I believe the Facebook apology like I would believe an apology from Hitler.

Facebook seems to be doing a lot of ‘apologizing’ lately. But notice that they never seem to take effective corrective actions? They have both a liberal agenda and a business plan. They won’t compromise either.

They are sorry that people caught them. Blame it on the algorithm...why not blame it on the liberal programmers who wrote the algorithm??

Post the 4th stanza of the Star Spangled Banner and see how long it stays up.

(I would, but I make the NSA and PLA work to keep my file current - I don’t serve them information on a platter).

There is no such thing as “hate speech”. There is only “FREE Speech”.

One person’s hate speech is another person’s constitution.
