Facebook owns the social media landscape. Not playing in their sandbox is a tough sell. GraniteGrok has seen a significant rise in traffic and engagement. From 30-50% of our traffic starts on Facebook. And traffic is way up. Could it be better? Probably. Are we subject to tactics meant to limit access to our content? Probably. But no alternative even comes remotely close. So we are staying. But you don’t have to rely on them to tell you if that is a concern.

We post new content all day every day. Go directly to our facebook page or our website. Sign up for our daily email blast. I also post Grok content to Gab and Codias.
You don’t rely on Facebook to send it to you, even on Facebook. Which brings me to Project Veritas and a Facebook insider who was fired for pulling back the curtain on what we suspected or thought we knew.
Facebook is run by intolerant leftists. They silence opposing ideas as policy. Throttle back content. Block it. Limits it. Deboost it. Bans pages they disagree with ideologically. What amounts to unfair business practices when people are paying for ads or boosts, based on ideological discrimination. A problem that could be solved with the right number of lawyers and lawsuits and evidence.
Until then we have this.
Project Veritas has obtained and published documentsand presentation materials from a former Facebook insider. This information describes how Facebook engineers plan and go about policing political speech. Screenshots from a Facebook workstation show the specific technical actions taken against political figures, as well as “[e]xisting strategies” taken to combat political speech.
