Can't have anyone thinking that there are actual intellectual conservatives.

Here is the video that caused the censoring: Make Men Masculine Again

After a little attention, Facebook responded:

Replying to @prageru @conservmillen
We mistakenly removed these videos and have restored them because they don't break our standards. This will reverse any reduction in content distribution you’ve experienced. We’re very sorry and are continuing to look into what happened with your Page.

Prager is probably the most mild mannered, non-confrontational, least bombastic commentator on the Right.

If they at least initially marked him, everyone is gonna get a turn.

He should be last on the list if they are gonna go the hate speech route.

Shocking that there’s moderators at Facebook acting like HOA administrators.

I don't know how many people fb employs that respond to complaints about posts and such, but you can believe a bunch of them are soy trash that jump at any chance to block conservatives.

They obviously have some more level headed employees that review soy decisions and reverse some of them.

The real irony here is conservatives will complain about a private company "censoring" its customers, yet they cheer on the revocation of net neutrality.

Conservatives are very anti net neutrality? Most cheered its revocation.

Facebook has been doing odd things lately.

I hid an ad for a local church, not because I didn't like it but because I saw it a dozen times and didn't want to see it again. I follow the church posts regularly.

Facebook then thanked me for "reporting" the ad (which I didn't do) and apologized for my "bad experience".

Most "Republicans" on here want NN

How is it just "conservatives" complaining? Anyone who has a brain is complaining. Arent you?

Some days the liberals accuse me of being a Trumpkin, two minutes later the Trump supporters accuse me of being a liberal. Somehow I have pissed off everyone .

I had no issue with NN, btw. I think FB censoring conservatives is also real and is part of a concerted larger effort btw.

Eta: lets see how many liberals downvote me here .
