This is an ongoing problem with Facebook that they won’t acknowledge by actually DOING something. Oh, they’ll issue a non-apology apology. Say it was a mistake or that an “algorithm” screwed things up. Except that the vast majority of mistakes and the screwups involve conservatives taking it in the shorts.

Facebook is Not a Publisher Even After They Fact Check an 11 sec. Video Three Times
We are Yuge fans of Facebook’s third-party fact-checkers. Where third-party looks a lot like Lenin’s Glavlit. The Main Administration for Literary and Publishing Affairs for the Soviet Socialist Republics. An office a few doors down and to the left from Zuckerbergermeisterberger.
Another Argument for Treating Big Tech Like Utilities
It is generally accepted that because companies like Twitter, Facebook, and Alphabet (Google, YouTube, everything else) are private, they can suppress all the speech and exhibit as much (left-leaning) bias as they please.
They Purposely Misrepresent Your Point, and Fact-Check Their Misrepresentation
Both Facebook and Twitter do have us in their sights – and our traffic has taken hits because of that as they have throttled us. No matter, I’ve always maintained that I don’t write for the hits (although I’m happy to see them). I write about what either amuses or concerns me.
Facebook Doodlings: I Have Feeling Future SCOTUS Meme’s Will be Ruthless…
I always like a good turn of phrase even if, at times, it is pointed at me. Clever is clever and others doing the nice wordsmithing work is fun to see. The Internet has given a lot of people a new avenue for either a pointed message or hilarious ones. Bring’em on!
Facebook’s Climate Denier Censorship Algore-ithm Blocks Green Groups for Misinformation
In the interest of keeping its army of quarantined creepy human censors (COVID19, RIOTS, FIRES), Facebook has them write algorithms. Crawling digital book-banners that seek out content to flag as fake, false, or in need of ritual progressive purification. But they don’t always work as planned.
Facebook’s Watchdogs “Create Another Fact” To Suppresses Our Content
Facebook’s independent fact-checkers are not just biased; they are sinister. Last February, they created a fact we never asserted and called our content false as a result. Facebook does not fact-check its fact-checkers, so wouldn’t you know, they’ve done it again.
Facebook Might as Well Have Empaneled the Ladies From The View for all the “Diversity” We’ll Get
Sharyl Attkisson, writing at Real Clear Investigations, reports that beneath the skin of Facebook’s oversight board is a common thread. “18 of its 20 members collaborated with or are tied to groups that have received funding from George Soros’ Open Society Foundations.”
Those Who Tell Stories Rule Society
Our readers are familiar with the marriage of Big Tech and the media when it comes to narrative control. It is the high-tech extension of what was once a monopoly on thought. The old days before AM radio and online contrarians. When the Left controlled the message.
Facebook’s ZuckerStasi Strike Again – “Fact Checkers” Flag Post as False!
Facebook is a controlled environment. If you step outside the approved narratives, they slam you. Knowing full well what to expect, I posted a video clip from Plandemic II, and they did not disappoint.
Plandemic II Skewers the “Fact Checkers” – From Snopes to Wikipedia to Politifact…
In our second clip, they expose the (so-called) gatekeepers of truth—the on-line fact-checkers. From Snopes to Wikipedia, to Facebook’s PolitiFact, to Google, we get a look at the people, the money, the message and narrative control behind what is labeled as truth and what is conjecture or conspiracy.- fake news.
Facebook’s Search Algorithm Pushes Holocaust Denial
Facebook has an algorithm for suggesting content that may interest users. It actively promotes Holocaust denial pages. That is the finding of The Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD), a UK-based counter-extremist organization, published in the Sunday Guardian newspaper.
Could a NH Court Harpoon Facebook’s Claims to Immunity Under the Communications Decency Act?
Social Media giants like Facebook enjoy immunity from the content posted on their pages because they claim they are not the publisher, just a platform. Section 230 (C) of the Communications Decency Act enshrines this loophole, but the NH Supreme Court may have put a tiny chink in their armor.
Did Berniece Van Der Berg (Co-Founder of the Moonlight Meadery): Really Pay Attention in Facebook class?
This little clip at WMUR was brought to my attention: “Business owners get advice from Facebook on how to succeed on social media“. When I went traipsing over to see what it was, there she was – bright and cheery:
No, I refuse to pay money to Twitter if they go to a subscription model
It was bad enough that they put GraniteGrok into a year’s long Catch-22 Twitter Jail for whatever reason some SJW there thought. I couldn’t get a straight answer out of them at all.
As Predicted: Social Media Thought Police Find New Excuse to Suppress Your Speech
Nine days ago I told you to get out – of Facebook and Twitter. Well, I actually suggested you diversify to other platforms where you can find the same Grok content. Why? Corporatist pressure was coming to strictly police speech on those platforms. And that day has arrived.
One Brave Soul to Stand at the Ready
In a popular Nashua Facebook group last week, a member posted that there was a Black Lives Matter protest being planned for that evening and he warned “If you have a business on Main Street, prepare to defend it.”
Trump Turns the Heat up on Twitter
Facebook, Twitter, and others have been hiding behind section 230(c) of the Communications Decency Act. It protects them from liability based on the content others publish on their platforms that they have been “editing” by their deliberate actions to suppress it. Mr. Trump says that makes them a publisher.
