Facebook steering the political narrative..is it different than Russian meddling?

[impuretrash]

Let us hear it Lefties....we know, we know...banning a few extremist and regulating speech isn’t exactly meddling in American politics...right?
Where is this headed?

To a more civil society, hopefully.

Alex Jones wasn't banned because he was right. Farakahn wasn't banned because he was left.

they were banned for their behavior of inciting violence and racism.

Now you are simply lying.

That's kinda his shtick.

Disgracebook is silencing the Conservative opposition.

Facebook has no business arbitrating the "facts and evidence." Then again, nobody has any business using Facebook to find "facts and evidence." So really, it's just a furtherance of a stupid society getting dumber by the day.

It's their platform, they can arbitrate whatever they want. So can USMB, for that matter, which is why so many people have been perma-banned.

Truth is Facebook's platform?

Facebook is public forum...it’s not a place. They should moderate language to keep it kid friendly but they should not moderate content.
Any good, real American would agree...anyone working from the LefTarded perspective will argue. SIMPLE SHIT

Facebook is a website not unlike this one and millions of other ones out there.

They are a private company and should be allowed to run their business any way they see fit...

Any good, real American would agree. Any good, real American would agree that the government should not be telling companies how to run their business. yet here you are...

Any good American would recognize that by supporting Facebook in this (which is only the latest in a series of purges of conservative voices), they are only lending aid and comfort to America's greatest enemies.

how dare I support freedom and liberty.

They have become a “let’s play nice” sandbox forum

So why should they keep it "Kid Friendly" (incidentally, I see a lot of stuff on FB that is anything but). You've just said there is a circumstance where they SHOULD moderate content... just not content you like.

So did someone ban your posts for hate speech?

Anyway what you post here is wrong because Alex Nones has been peddling his bullshit on Facebook for years and they said nothing. This is nothing more then Zuckerberg doing as instructed by his owners in congress. At some point Congress needs to take a look at ALL social medicine platforms. Then we need to decide if free speech is really free, or if free speech is only what we like to hear.

Jones has been peddling his shit on facebook for years. People just got fed up with him. Sucks to be him, but the big old hammer is coming down on him from a bunch of places. Platforms are banning his content and the Sandy Hook families are about to take him to the cleaners.

Moderating words and moderating content are two different things.

Yes it is, it's actually happening.

yes

How so?
Because you have confidence in them steering it left?

When Facebook hacks the RNC and then publishes the data they stole...call me.

I agree. they are.

But it's Facebook's platform and they can moderate anything they damn well feel like, can't they?

If you racist wingnuts don't like it, start your own "HateBook" where you can say all the shit you want. It will probably fail in like a week because no one will want to advertise their products on it.
