Facebook maintains a list of “hate agents” for monitoring and potential termination, according to a source inside the company. Among the names reportedly on the “hate agent” list? Star pundit and black conservative activist Candace Owens.
A Facebook spokeswoman confirmed to Breitbart News that the list exists, and did not deny that Owens’ name appears on it, but believes that there has not yet been an investigation into her.
The spokeswoman also confirmed that the “hate agents” list, which was created in April, was related to the high-profile bans of alternative media figures (including Paul Joseph Watson and Laura Loomer) that occurred on May 2nd.
This exclusive story was sent to Breitbart News on the same day that Owens “mistakenly” received seven-day suspension from Facebook for criticizing liberal attitudes towards African-Americans, a topic frequently raised by Owens in her public appearances.
Previous leaks from Facebook have exposed how the platform developed a “deboosting algorithm”designed to covertly suppress (or “shadowban”) certain content-creators on the platform, making their posts less likely to appear on the feeds of users. According to a Facebook insider who spoke to Project Veritas, this code has been used against prominent conservatives on the platform.
Facebook’s recent censorship surge comes amid pressure from foreign governments to clamp down on hate speech. A recent conference of world leaders dubbed the “Christchurch Call for Action” saw the leaders of France, Canada, Germany, Britain and New Zealand among others demanding crackdowns against “violent extremism” on the internet.
The White House refused to co-sign the call for action, citing free speech concerns – but Twitter, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and a number of other tech companies were quick to put their names to the declaration.

Since our side doesn’t hate, but rather espouses freedom of speech and expression, we should via PDJT, start a “Book Burners” list, aka, “BB list”...I think it would take off.
PDJT should call them Book Burners...I’m gonna post that idea to “Contact the Whitehouse”.
Where ever Candace goes, I am following....and I don’t follow anyone on face book, not even Candace.
Blog burners
Candace needs to sue them for defamation of character.
In Your Facebook
The Left is incapable of debating TRUTH, based upon FACTS, so it resorts to calling opposing points of view “hate”.
The left claims “tolerance” but they march and shout down anyone with a different point of view...
The left claims the right or conservatives “hate” but which group marches around with bandanas covering their faces and carrying weapons???
She has been accused of being a white supremacist and a Nazi. Quite the achievement for a black girl.
Just where the hell does FascistBook get off “investigating” anyone?
....and they're good friends soooo
That is actionable. Candace should seriously consider defamation suit. I wonder if James O’Keefe is on “the list”...
I don’t know that you even can sue for defamation for a statement that was never made publicly, and even if you could, a public figure making a defamation claim is going to lose about ninety-nine times out of a hundred.
I’m doing my part to combat these Fascists by simply refusing to use Facebook, Google, Amazon, etc. How about you?
