Tech Giants Google and Facebook are currently purging conservative content from Facebook and YouTube — They are hiding conservative stories on Google — They are shadow-banning conservative news on all social media.

In February Facebook launched a new algorithm to ensure that conservative news would not spread on the social media platform. The algorithm change caused President Donald Trump’s engagement on Facebook posts to plummet a whopping 45%.


Here is an initial list of top conservative websites that have been blacklisted and targeted by Google, YouTube and Facebook.


quote:

Young Cons: Extremely popular conservative news site and received millions of daily readers during the election. The website received nearly all of its traffic from Facebook. Since 2016 Facebook shut down stories to Young Cons. Each algorithm change meant less traffic for the popular website. YoungCons was blacklisted by Facebook and struggles to maintain readers. The site regularly switches domains to save traffic.

SarahPalin.com: With over 4 million fans one of the popular conservative pages on Facebook until Facebook blocked all traffic to the website. The page was forced to change the domain to save traffic numbers.

Right Wing News: Right Wing News grew to an enormous website in the past few years thanks its popularity on Facebook. In July of 2015, in just a week, the Right Wing News Facebook page reached 133 million people. Because conservatives were sharing content they were interested in, Right Wing News (with 3.6 million Facebook likes ) was driving the same amount of web traffic as some of the biggest newspapers in America. Since the 2016 election Facebook blocked traffic to the website. Owner John Hawkins announced he was shutting down the website in January.

Western Journalism: Newsweek reported that the site has grown from receiving 1,000 page views a day in 2009[3] to more than 1 million during 2016. The website was averaging around 6 million page views a day according to Quantcast during the election. Today it is down to around 500,000 a day. Western Journalism was blacklisted by Facebook.

The Gateway Pundit: TGP was ranked as the 4th most influential conservative news source during the 2016 election. The site in 2016 received nearly a third of its traffic from Facebook. This past weekend Facebook blocked all traffic from recent stories to the website. TGP advertised with Facebook and is another top conservative website blacklisted by the company. TGP is also shadow-banned by Google and frequently attacked and smeared by the liberal media.

President Trump Facebook page: A recent algorithm change has caused President Donald Trump’s engagement on Facebook posts to plummet a whopping 45%. In contrast, Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT) do not appear to have suffered a comparable decline in Facebook engagement, reported Breitbart’s Alum Bokhari.

Independent Journal Review: A massive conservative website based on Facebook audience. The Independent Journal Review (IJR) terminated a number of its employees on Thursday, leaving an unclear future for the millennial-focused conservative website that has recently faced a declining audience. IDF was also shadow-banned and blacklisted.

Breitbart.com: Breitbart was the most influential conservative news source in 2016 with a massive audience. Since the election Breitbart is constantly targeted and smeared by far left operations. Breitbart advertising was targeted by Sleeping Giants and other Soros sites.

InfoWars: Infowars is another dominant conservative site with enormous traffic. After several years of video production and tens of thousands of video YouTube gave Infowars its third strike this week and threatens to shut the YouTube Channel down.

Rightside Broadcasting: This YouTube Channel had millions of views before the election. Since 2016 YouTube has shadow-banned all of their videos. YouTube has classified its videos of President Trump at a rally as hate speech. YouTube has demonetized hundreds of its videos. YouTube hides its videos. Income for the site is down 95% since the election.

Natural News: A very prominent health website and the world’s top source on natural health. The site receives tens of thousands of readers every day. YouTube wiped out over 1,700 videos covering everything from nutrition, natural medicine, history, science and current events.

Prager Report: PragerU, a conservative educational site, is suing Google and its subsidiary YouTube, accusing the video site of censoring its online videos because of their political leanings. YouTube has banned several of its videos including segments on abortion and Islam. Prager U has a massive conservative audience in the millions.

Pamela Geller.com: Pamela is well-known for speaking out against radical Islam. ISIS has threatened to behead her several times. During the election PG had over 100,000 daily views from Facebook. Today Facebook has shut down most of her traffic. Her website suffered serious losses in revenue since the election.

Diamond and Silk: Pro-Trump YouTube sensations have a suit against YouTube. The Trump supporters announced in August 2017 that 95% of their videos have been demonetized on YouTube.


Using shadow banning, they have forced some to begin shutting down. IDJ has started terminating employees because revenue is down due to shadow banning.


What's even worse, FB is taking ad money from companies and then shadow banning the ads.


It's troubling that GOOGLE has the power to KILL a business.

It's troubling to say the least and, you would think, it brings into play the possibility that these tech giants are seriously infringing upon some of our 1st Amendment Rights.

It’s weird how they censor these but many of my based alt groups like “Jesus is alt-right with me” and “God Emperor Trump” and “Fashy goys for Trump” are still spreading our cherished gospel of Christendom and #AmericaFirst

They could shadow ban WALMART and put them out. That's the amount of power that company has.

Is it censorship or were they beneficiaries of the algorithm that weighted traffic to their sites?

Sell that to the American people and see if they buy it when left sites are not being damaged.

i just went to facebook and visited some of the sites that you said had been censored. Right Wing News and The Western Journal are still there, and i found their pages by searching for them. They are still updating with new posts.

So if they arent being booted from the platform, is it censorship?

And the left's infatuation with censoring differing opinions continues.

In their mind, google, youtube, and FB are completely justified because these sites spew "hate speech" and produce only biased stories that aren't true.

Meanwhile, they have no issue with the tabloid-level "journalism" we see from CNN, Vox, HuffPost, etc.

This is going to continue to get worse before it gets better.

i did read your OP. You claimed these sites are blacklisted. Maybe our definition of blacklisted is different, but I understand that word to mean banished or forbidden.

If facebook is not changing the content or refusing to publish them, is that censorship?

Mine is simply what the actual definition is.

quote:

Blacklisting is the action of a group or authority, compiling a blacklist of people, countries or other entities to be avoided or distrusted as not being acceptable to those making the list. A blacklist can list people to be discriminated against, refused employment, or censored. Wikipedia

Its real simple, if you don't like how they do things don't use it or STFU.
Create your own platform and use it for whatever purpose you want

Here is another idea. Expose them. Let the American people decide.


But no.... I won't shut up and lay down for the left.

Ummmmmm, it's not that simple and no one here probably has the time or the inclination to explain to you exactly how un-simple endeavoring to approach it from that angle it would actually be.

You probably believe draining the Deep State Swamp is simple as well? Or cutting back government bureaucracies as well? How about cleaning-up the military industrial complex? How about demanding factual journalistic integrity from the MSM?

Forcing change to any of it is definitely not simple.

By chance ... have you ever seen a move by the name of "Tucker; A Man and his Machine?"

This is absolutely a fricking quack "health" website and the spread of information like this has a cost in human lives.

They're a bunch of fricking libtards
