Facebook Upholds Trump Ban

[dblack]

Personally I don't care if they ban Trump. As it stands DeSantis may be the one to vote for in 2024.

The issue isn't really Trump, per se.

The issue is the snot-nosed litte bolsheviks thinking they can just dictate what people say.

If you really pay attention to the most vocal of the brown-shirts, they don't care about Trump. All they care about is silencing ayone else who doesn't march lock-step with their Marxist wet dreams.

Thankfully, they're mental midgets and rather easily demonstrated to be so o nthe public stage.

I entirely agree with you. I used to believe that free speech could not be silenced in the US as it is in so many other countries - I was wrong.

The left believes that silencing Trump is some kind of victory. My comment was meant to simply state that many people are looking for a candidate that will put America first, whether it's Trump or DeSantis or someone else willing to work for Americans, because policies are important, not personalities.

.

No one is silencing Trump. They're just refusing to be his megaphone.

Trump is silenced and ALL OF HIS FOLLOWERS WHO SPEAK THE SAME MESSAGE ARE SILENCED

Then I guess your post is just a figment of my imagination.

We are talking about FACEBOOK. Try to keep up

You claim was "Trump is silenced and ALL OF HIS FOLLOWERS WHO SPEAK THE SAME MESSAGE ARE SILENCED".

Which is obviously untrue, proven by the fact that you are posting in this thread.

youre being dishonest about the context,,

How so?

When a Leftist can't beat you in an argument or a race, they try to silence you and break your legs.

Trump hasn't been silenced.

He has on Facebook and Twitter where 99% of all those go to read and talk.

99%??? Gimme a break. That's utter bullshit.

And beyond that, the Left have tried to bar him from ever even writing his memoirs or even getting the SS protection all presidents are accorded.

Well, you know, that's a thing. If people don't like you, they don't have to put up with your bullshit. That's how it goes. Maybe if Trump wasn't such an offensive jackass, he'd get more invitations.

 

[toobfreak]

They announced it this morning. trump can't go back to Facebook.

They have the right to decide who can be on their site. trump violated the rules over and over again. He made very bad choices so he should take personal responsibility, bad consequences comes with bad choices. He should have been taught that as a child.

Trump Ban From Facebook Upheld by Oversight Board

Good, this will hurt Facebook. Im surprised they were dumb enough to do it, but you lefties are as dumb as they get.

Yeah, how dare a private firm decide what's in their best interest. Private enterprise...bah humbug.

I guess that doesn't apply to bakeries though if they happen to be Christian. And I never knew a business where it was "in their interest" to ban millions of accounts from speaking an opinion in a free society-- -- -- especially one that not one of them can prove is wrong.

And..... nothin'.

You're as bad as the liberals who want everything handed to them. We've given up on liberty and individual rights, traded them in for "free shit".

 

[Donald H]

The appropriate government reaction on Trump's Jan.6 insurrection could have been administered with one well placed bullet.

Taking away his right to lie about him winning the election by censoring his right is charitable toward him.

And if he sets up his own soapbox then theat charity should be reconsidered.

 

[Astrostar]

Facebook wants to ban America too

Nope, just the liars and insurrectionists!

 

[OldLady]

The independent Advisory Board has determined that Facebook's decision to ban Donald Trump permanently was legit. However, it asked for more transparency and clearer rules, and said FB should not "indefinitely" suspend members without an established length of time.

Now they've got their specifics. The ban is forever.

The Advisory Board is definitely not a rubber stamp, either. It suggested some changes many of us felt were in order for a long time:

The initial round of decisions — which touched on alleged hate speech, coronavirus misinformation and references to dangerous organizations — signaled that the board would demand greater clarity from Facebook about its policies, as well as transparency. Before Wednesday’s decision, the board had overturned Facebook’s decisions six times, upheld them twice, and was unable to complete a ruling once.

you may want to reread the article,,

You're right.

facebook "rules" LOL
Could have picked a better word. Rules are to be followed. They are fffffffffffffaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr from consistent.

It's the same problem on all social media platforms. A lot of the rules are general, for the most part, and open to individual interpretation. Having a review board that holds their feet to the fire is a good thing.

Its a joke OL. Social media goes crazy over trump but are OK with terrorists, extremists etc having accounts.
The man that has killed more people in terror attacks in the last 10 years posts with immunity. Even speaks of genocide. No one bats a eye.

And you want to let people keep flapping their gums over bullshit lies until the same thing happens here? Fascism isn't okay in my book. TN.

fascism is restricting speech you dont agree with,, now tell me whos doing that??

They sure haven't restricted the likes of you, have they?

I guess Facebook perma-banned Lebron James for inciting violence against cops.

Oops, they didn't? Nobody trusts or believes these hypocritical clowns. It's all complete bullshit.

James took that post down and apologized for it. That's all T**** had to do. But he wasn't about to shut his fat yap about having the election stolen. He'd been warned over and over. It was his choice.

youre dodging the fact that its only dems trying to silence anyone,, the rest of us want you to keep talking to expose your true colors like you just did,,

I'm not dodging anything; you're making shit up.

Old Lady, you're cool. I have no problem with you whatsoever. You like this Facebook decision because you hate Trump. That's fine, you don't have to like him.

But to say that Facebook is fair or evenhanded in who they choose to censor and ban is a little ridiculous. They are a fucking joke, and censorship is deeply unAmerican.

That's why I think the review board's findings were good ones. It should be fair and even handed. Sure I'm glad he got shut up. But that's not why I agree with this decision. I think it was important to national security.

Wonder how you get on Facebook's " impartial" review board? is Zuckerburg's Mom one of the board members?

Pretty sure Don Jr. won't be on it, or probably anyone who ever voted for Trump. But I suppose it gives Facebook a tiny fig leaf and allows the media to tell the lie. Because in the end, the lie is all that matters.

From the article it sounds like it was an international group. I don't know. But as you can see, in their decisions so far, they have disagreed with FB's decisions twice as often as they've agreed. So I doubt if his mom was on it.

I can help with that question.

A Four Person NATO-Funded Team Advises Facebook On Flagging 'Propaganda'

What's more is that the team of four total individuals running the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFR Lab) is headed by a former National Security Council advisor for the last four years of the Obama administration, Graham Brookie, who is also its founder.

Facebook is now itself a top donor to the Atlantic Council, alongside Western governments, Gulf autocratic regimes, NATO, various branches of the US military, and a number of major defense contractors and corporations.

That group is also openly interested in becoming involved with the Biden administrations plan to use third-party 'extremism' researchers to spy on Americans

You're welcome.

Thanks, but the Advisory/ Oversight board is made up of 20 people, all listed in this article.

Factbox: Who are the first members of Facebook's oversight board?

Facebook Inc's (FB.O) independent oversight board, which on Wednesday upheld the company's ban on former U.S. President Donald Trump, currently consists of 20 members.

99%??? Gimme a break. That's utter bullshit.

It's a guess. What difference does it make if it is 92%? The VAST MAJORITY of all social media goes through those two companies. They are a monopoly. That's why every webspace or whatever you go to, they have a link to those two places on their page.

Well, you know, that's a thing. If people don't like you, they don't have to put up with your bullshit. That's how it goes.

Is it? I always thought freedom of speech and difference of opinion was how it "went" with America? And if you don't like the message, you just go elsewhere, change the fucking channel, not try to muzzle anyone you don't like.

[ClaireH]

This could be the issue that will have the greatest impact on America's future. Trump is being rejected and is without a soapbox from which to peddle his lies.

A wise decision by Facebook in being able to separate hate speech from the right to free speech.

WH: Social Media Platforms Should Block More 'Untrustworthy Content'

The White House said President Joe Biden supported social media companies banning more content considered "untrustworthy" on their platforms.

www.breitbart.com

supporting free speech is about speech you disagree with,,,

That exact concept: supporting free speech entails holding the door open for even the speech you personally disagree was hard for me to grasp a few years back. A KKK rally was going to be in an area where I had a trip planned. I squawked for days about how those losers would be there, almost enjoying my fury lol...well almost if it didn't involve such hate...but anyway..had someone point that out to me...point black "Hey, you say you support free speech so that means supporting the right of speech by all groups." The hard part is defining the line between free speech and hate speech. When exactly do words that contain fiery rhetoric turn into hateful rhetoric? That has yet to be ironed out obviously and maybe in another 10 to 20 years for the US, hard to measure.

The real problem is during political rallies you'll often have at least a small group of haters...full to their gills in hate...varying age groups, and they know little else. They will show off and one-up the others in rhetoric, try to incite a fire or do some type of damage. Stepping onto the next step of hate speech is to actively encourage others to target the homes and families of their "opposition". That is crossing the line, although the defense will insist it was strictly a matter of expressing free speech and things maybe, got out of hand but that no hate crimes were commited. Venomous hate speech cannot be left unchecked. Really, it's pretty sad to think the US needs to decide in 2021 what should have been cut and dry decades ago...surely the 60's gave cause for defining the two in clear terms. Here we are 60 years later still trying to figure that out.
