I wasnât aware Facebook was running for president.
So true. They didnât once report on Operation Jade Helm or whatâs happening with Agenda 21.
It really IS a conspiracy.
the RNC was said to be similarly offended and upset by Fox News and Breitbart and Stormfront. hahaha. just kidding, obviously.
âWe are thrilled to have something to whine about, rather than spending another day trying to spin Trumpâs actions. Thanks, Facebook!â
For the last time (I hope)ââcensorshipâ is government suppression of ideas. If it is a private party, then they simply disagree, as is their right under A1.
You say âConservative Outrageâ I say
SQUIRREL!!
In other news, the RNC has announced itâs launching an alternative to Facebook called MaceBook. They hope it will be as successful as Conservapedia.
In the meantime, they are directing all of their dedicated followers to
The RNC should maybe use their time trying to keep their party from imploding. I mean, Iâm fine that theyâre not but itâs adorable that they think they have the bandwidth to do anything else.
ummm⌠once again the RNC displays complete ignorance of the Constitution and the lawâŚ
Facebook is a corporation, a people in SCOTUS parlance, theyâre actually ALLOWED to do what they like with editorial policyâŚ
you might not like but if you think youâre a âfree enterprise capitalistâ tough shitâŚ
start an RNC version of Facebook⌠free market competition will decide the issue if you really believe what you sayâŚ
FOX: This is corporate sponsored fascism. You are only supposed to suppress Liberal/Democratic viewpoint.
The RNC has to do something to keep the base angry and fired up, and so they donât actually get around to asking Trump for details about what he has promised to do.
Facebook, the Soviet East Berlin of the webâŚ
Businesses make decisions about what to embrace all the time. Old Navy puts up an ad with an interracial couple; Target reiterates their bathroom policy; a local butcher shop here gives a discount if youâre openly carrying a weapon.
That said, I (and probably a good number of other Facebook users) look forward to the people upset about this actually pulling off a successful boycott for once.
RinseânâSpin tilting at nonthreatening windmills.
Thought Iâd repost my comment from another thread on this topic from yesterday since I see this story just wonât die a natural death like it shouldâŚ
Facebook is a private company. You donât see the mainstream media up in arms about Faux Nooze leaving out Liberal-leaning stories âtrendingâ in the media that favor a more progressive viewpointâŚand they claim to be a fucking actual news service. The entire hullabaloo is being ginned up by the corporate-owned media, especially on cable news, with absolute no sense of irony. Its such bullshit from the start. This is how we got stuck with âboth sideismâ and âthe liberal lamestream mediaâ, through the same efforts at arm-twisting and intimidation tactics by conservative operatives working the refs to skew the news. This is why the media no longer leans unapologetically in any liberal direction anymore either, and weâre stuck with shit-for-brains reporting by conservative owned media conglomerates for the most part. And so it continuesâŚ
They did the same thing years ago complaining about HuffPo being a liberal news aggregator when Obama first ran for President until eventually they succumbed to the criticism and now is nothing but a hot mess of conservative bullshit with some liberal reporting scattered throughout. The same conservatives worked the news gods and refs there too. HuffPo is a shell of its former self and along with unceasing tabloid bullshit for clickbait, âcavedâ into becoming a horrible source for original reporting for the most part too.
Edit to add: Facebook has no obligation to post Conservatard media stories, even if Republicans argue over stupid algorithms. If you donât want to use FacebookâŚleave and find yourself another social media product you can believe in that shares your values. Otherwise, STFU and quit your whining.
And the single anonymous âsourceâ of a fired employee is the genesis of this whine-fest/working the ref.
#GOPcryingLame
Hell, Faux Nooze doesnât even cover the sitting President of the United States, unless its derogatory, simply because heâs a DemocratâŚas if thatâs âliberal newsâ. They donât even try to pretend theyâre a news source for all people. They just offer skewed news for skewed little minds. And you rarely see the mainstream media going after Faux for its dereliction of duty when it comes to reporting actual fucking news. Thereâs so much hypocrisy in the news business these days. Its barely worth defending, but Facebook can do whatever it wants for all I care. Donât like itâŚgo somewhere else.
stories highlighted in the trending section, Facebook has the power to greatly influence the presidential election
These âpeopleâ are most likely already occupied doing things the pop-up ads are demanding of themâŚ
