As a result of my recent article at Canada Free Press about the Facebook censorship of conservatives and the thousands of fact checkers assigned to each conservative account, I have been barred from going live on Facebook for 30 days. The "convenient" excuse was a photograph I shared three months ago!
The photograph in question depicted Jewish people being loaded onto trains destined for concentration camps during World War II, with the caption, I am paraphrasing, that they were told to load up peacefully because it was for their own good.
I have been assigned, as of today, July 24, 30-day Facebook "going live" silence for having posted a photograph, which is factual, THREE months ago on April 24.
The hired "fact-checkers" constantly use liberal publications as sources of "facts." These sources of facts are often wrong, partially true, biased, or purposefully misconstrued.
Facebook's "moderators," who possibly have never taken a real history lesson in their ignorant lives, found this photo in violation of Facebook's Orwellian community standards because it described how easily Jews were led to trains and to the gas chambers during World War II.
Apparently historical facts are offensive to the Facebook owners and to their hired "moderators," serving as 'fact-checkers" for $16 an hour. They often quote Snopes and USA Today as sources of fact.
Freedom of speech is guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution and offensive speech is protected but Facebook is the ultimate decision-maker on its social platform as to who gets to have free speech and who does not. It seems that conservatives lose every time their right to speak.
Orwell's "1984" has already arrived and the tech monopoly proves it every day.
The important question to be answered is, is Facebook a social platform, or is Facebook a publisher?
***********************
Post Scriptum - It seems that my 30-day Facebook suspension refers to being unable to "go live." I have no idea what that means since I have not gone live on Facebook and have no intention to do so at this moment.
Facebook conveniently proved my Canada Free Press article point that Facebook most certainly does suspend conservative users by suspending ME.
Ileana: Facebook censors conservatives
ReplyDeleteFacebook: No, we don't!
(Facebook suspends Ileana)
Ileana: You made my point
