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.”
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.
On April 26th Rick posted a video from two urgent care doctors in California sharing their observations and data showing that the response to COVID-19 is worse than the virus. Facebook pulls it down wherever they find it. YouTube has blocked it. We have it.
Big Tech’s commitment to promoting ChiCom propaganda is marveled only by Corporate media. This also works in reverse. Facebook, for example, is using its obviously partisan fact-checking process to remove articles suggesting COVID-19 escaped from a Chinese Lab.
It seems that a lot of people never bother to read the first sentence of my bio that appears under every post I write: “Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom (and how Government is taking that away from us)“. I recently wrote “NH Governor could learn from South Dakota’s Governor: …
Both the GraniteGrok Facebook Page and the Group are frequent targets for left-leaning “fact-checkers.” These folks are so good that they create the fact (we never asserted) then tell Facebook we did and label it fake news.
Facebook edition: Tipped off to ‘suspicious’ accounts supporting Bernie Sanders, Facebook hunted high and low for Russian trolls and Trump operatives, preferably colluding to promote Bernie, but came up empty…..
Mike’s post “Babylon Bee: Sanders Confused By NH Motto” uses the old tried and true formula – just enough truth to be believable and in this case, the butt of the satire is sufficiently known not to be a Liberty and Freedom kind of guy:
I shared a Babylon Bee post on the Grok Facebook Page. Some third-party BS “fact-checker” flagged it. They said hey this is satire but “some people believed it.” No, they didn’t. You are all morons and “Lead Stories” (their so-called fact-checker) is leading the way!
