Facebook is rolling out its rules for the midterm elections in a post from Meta about how it plans to throw its weight around in the weeks leading up to the November midterm elections.
According to a post published last week from Nick Clegg, Meta’s president of global affairs, 40 teams will be monitoring the elections.
The post cites one side of the forces allegedly trying to disrupt an election by noting that Meta has “banned more than 270 white supremacist organizations, and removed 2.5 million pieces of content tied to organized hate globally on Facebook in the first quarter of 2022.”
No specific mention was made about Facebook banning content from left-wing groups or their activities.
For the midterms, Clegg’s post said the company will employ “advanced security operations to fight foreign interference and domestic influence campaigns, our network of independent fact-checking partners, our industry-leading transparency measures around political advertising and pages, as well as new measures to help keep poll workers safe.”
“As we did in 2020, we have a dedicated team in place to combat election and voter interference while also helping people get reliable information about when and how to vote,” the post stated.
Facebook will partner with the Biden administration as well, through an alliance with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, according to the post.
The company will also work with the National Association of Secretaries of State, which is led by Tahesha Way, the New Jersey secretary of state who was embroiled in a lawsuit with former President Donald Trump over the conduct of her state’s election s in 2020.
Another partner Facebook identified was the National Association of State Elections Directors, which is headed by Meagan Wolfe, Wisconsin’s Election Commission administrator.

Nobody believes them anymore. Boy who tried censoring villagers who believed that there was no wolf.
“Facebook will partner with the Biden administration as well, through an alliance with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, according to the post.”
There should be an immediate injunction; the Supreme Court has ruled at least three times that the government cannot coordinate with or pressure third parties to censor information.
Just tag groups with links to discussions on other forums. If they ban the link give the search string.
Clown world.
Dork Zuckerturd, domestic enemy of the USA as far as I’m concerned. It was his money that paid the 2000 mules to stuff ballot boxes. This little bastard who is a multi-billionaire because of a freakin’ website deliberately made the lives of people who do actual work for a living that much tougher.
That’s only if you don’t belong to the deep state, silly.
Socialist Totalitarian clown world.
What a surprise. Still, why should they hide it? Everybody knows it.
Sir Nicholas William Peter Clegg is a British media executive and former Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom …
In a sane world, the douche bag would already be Bubba’s latest beotch in a prison somewhere for what he pulled during the last election.

Elitist little prick.
Oh, how cute. It’s one of those nice private-public partnerships…..Otherwise know as fascism.
