Former Facebook Employee Alleges Company’s Anti-Conservative Bias With Shocking Statistics

After Trump won, conservatives were banned or blocked 20 to 53 times as often as "liberals." "Liberals" who were flagged often got one day time out and an apology.
No real surprise here, but this is hard data. Twitter and Facebook are not platforms, they are partisan publishers.

Not shocked face.
They needed to control the narrative that Trump 'lost' so what better way to reinforce it? Ban those spewing other narratives.

I'm supposed to be shocked that tech companies discriminate against conservatives?

While we are all well aware of this, it better to put hard data rather than just assertions into the slap.

Just yesterday saw commercials that are clearly the beginning of FB campaign to push congress to pass regulations on tech platforms. This is all starting to play out as it was predicted when the so called whistle blower started testifying before the US congress and EU parliments.
If FB is asking for government regulation you have to know that the regulations is for their interest and not the interests of providing free speech rights for US citizens. There proposed regulations would give them the right to claim government mandated censorship.
FB is a private business, they can regulate themselves on their own so if they are asking to the government to regulate them then why not just regulate yourself??? Because their idea of regulation gives them more monopolistic power and removes them from liability risks.

You would be amazed the number of clueless people.
My daughters daycare post pictures to facebook, I told the director I don't do Facebook and told her why.
She seemed shocked and she is as conservative as anyone.

I'm just assuming the shocking statistics were that they actually suspended a liberal.

Imagine what happens if these liberal freaks start controlling elections?

Facebook is a joke when it comes to the banhammer.. My alter is just coming out of a 30 day suspension. I said something about smashing someone over the head with my keyboard.. And this was not about a person that was commenting on facebook.
