Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) said on Twitter today that leftists are pushing a fake “scandal” about Facebook making exceptions to its rules to justify censorship of conservatives.

“The Facebook “scandal” is a false flag intended to justify an oncoming wave of censorship against the Right,” said Rep. Gaetz on Twitter.

The Florida congressman was responding to allegations from leftists at Facebook that the site makes exceptions to its rules in order to protect political figures on the platform.

Facebook is really Dembook, but more correctly, Farcebook.

The “scandal” is that they made exceptions to their censorship for political office holders (ahem ... Trump). And now they want to use it to say “to prevent this moving forward we’ll just censor everyone everywhere always”

It’s not meaningful to me that they would.

I used to be a very prolific user of FB, now I might stop in once in a while.

Psh. I called that the very first time I saw news/articles about the leak and the ‘scandal’s. Seems rather obvious to me.

You can tell who the DNC lapdogs are too, by those who pushed the scandal the hardest. A lot of the media echos others in the media, but you can see who pushes certain stories

What's the over and under on when Twitter bans Gaetz?

Absolutely! This female is a leftwinger who did not mention the BLM riots or ANTIFA riots. They are doing this to censor even more conservative voices on FB. She could also be a disgruntled worker.

He is exactly right. That lady was complaining, using carefully selected words, that Facebook was not censoring conservatives enough AFTER the election.

Zuckerberg owns the swamp. Lock, stock and barrel. Nothing will come of this.

This is the Farcebook Is Evil ping list.


h/t SC DOC

Facebook is a perfect example of socialism:
You get it for free but the quality sucks.
You have no say in how it works.
The guy who runs it gets rich.
There's no real competition.
You have no privacy.
And if you say one thing they don't like
they'll shut you up.

Antifa and BLM regularly use FB and Twitter to advertise and plan riots, vandalism, and violence against individuals. This attracts no notice or controversy. But “misgender” some government official who look like an old man with long hair and a dress and it is the end of the world. It is good to see this stuff get some serious pushback from many otherwise opposed political viewpoints.
