I find Facebook's overt silencing of conservatives really disturbing. Silencing freedom of speech by a big tech company is something I will never agree with.

I find Facebook's shitty, almost nonexistent, silencing of alt-right and other conspiracy bullshit spreading really disturbing. Silencing freedom of speech by a big tech company would be something I will never agree with. But obviously more should be done banning the nuts.
Fixed.

Really? Because my relatives and in-laws seem to be managing just fine spreading all of that stuff. They are definitely not being silenced. Wish they were sometimes on certain topics.

And yea FB is more of a blessing then a curse for this field. Best way to interact and grow a market next to nurturing a mailing list.

I mean, if you all would actual research anything you'd know that the admin's at FB have admitted on hidden camera to deleting, and erasing profiles because they don't agree with conservatives. That's not false. Many many people have admitted that they'll delete pro-Trump posts. Delete someone's pictures if it has a MAGA hat. This is very real. And when I say silence, I don't mean completely. I mean there's admins and people at FB that work to strictly and soley erase pro-conservative, and pro-Trump posts.

So yeah, you can say "alt-right" but without proof, that's just blatant lies. Clearly people at FB who are behind the scenes don't like Trump, no surprise, and they are deleting whatever they want even if it doesn't go against their guidelines. But they won't delete alt-left posts calling for violence. That's the double standard.

Yet they're caught on hidden camera admitting it. I don't get what you're not understanding.
