No. They are a publicly traded company. Don't be retarded.

Has nothing to do with “conservatism”

I don't do Facebook. But if Facebook doesn't want to host a certain opinion, they are within their right to take it off of their platform.
Private business.

Facebook made a sweetheart deal with the government so they can't be sued as a publisher because they are simply a platform to let people express their views. But when they want to ban content, they revert to being a publisher and have the governments laws to protect them. Sounds fair right?

That was not my question, Fidel. Everybody acknowledges it’s within Facebook’s rights to squash other people’s free speech. My question was, why do liberals hate free speech? Why would they want to silence people?

Collecting peoples information and selling it to the highest bidder.
The longer people stay on facebook the more money they make.
This isnt complicated .

The owners would disagree with that sentiment.

I’m slowly starting to come around to breaking them up. Still haven’t decided yet. I’d prefer a decentralized social network to rise up and crush them instead but we aren’t ready for that and may never be.

Whitey would be welcomed in most of those places.

Totally different circumstance. And no I don’t support

I think the fact that people continue to use a service they are dissatisfied with makes a prima facie case that Facebook does in fact have an effective Monopoly.

Facebook is a liberal hack media arm, she should know this, and they don’t like hearing the truth. Facebook should be banned by the Trump administration...

Great idea. I have an app that will do the trick.
Oh shite. We got banned from the web host because we allow free speech. Let's create our own web host then.
Oh shite. We got banned from cloud services because we allow free speech. Gotta pay for our own storage hardware now.
Oh shite. We got banned from paypal and other financial services because we allow free speech. No problem. We'll just create our own financial company.
Oh shite. We got banned from the 2 companies that control 98% of the phone market because we allow free speech. Guess we should just create our own phones and operating systems then.
Oh shite. We just got banned from all the largest internet advertising companies because we allow free speech. Simple solution. We'll just create our own advertising network.
This neat little app will only cost us $5 billion dollars to launch. Sweet. The free market is working great.

The door has been open for a while. It takes a lot of $$ and know-how to be able to do something profitable that could compete with the current giants. I'd honestly love to see somebody do this, but the only way it could work is if there were no censorship rules with very few exceptions that should align to U.S. laws, such as threats, calls to action, etc. There should be no censorship on "hate speech" or "offensive" speech. It'd be interesting to see what would happen.
One way it could work: You can downvote/upvote, but it doesn't work like here where it's just a scoreboard, or Yahoo where unpopular posts are hidden and you have to ask to see it.
Instead, it would be like on Amazon, where you view a product and it says "People who viewed this page also viewed A,B,C or bought X,Y,Z". The new site remember what you like and dislike and use that to predict what new content you will or won't like. You can even select a reason for the downvote - fake news, vulgar language, hate speech, lame and unfunny, etc. People can post whatever they want short of threats and harassment of other users, and heavily viewed content will not only be rated by the community at large, but everyone will be able to customize the results to give more weight to some reviewers.
