Facebook (Meta) is up to its old election interference tricks once again. The social media giant was caught shadow-banning the iconic photo of President Donald J. Trump pumping his bloody fist in the air after surviving an assassination attempt.
The social media giant was also sending alerts to users who attempted to share the image on Facebook. It told them to take the image down, otherwise they would be blocked from using their accounts for spreading “disinformation.”
When news of Facebook censoring the internet on behalf of the Democrats went viral on Twitter, a spokesperson came out and declared that the dishonest censorship was an “error.” Isn’t it remarkable how these errors only seem to ever run in one direction? When was the last time you saw a Big Tech company censor positive information about Kamala Harris?
Okay, bad example. There has never been any positive information about Kamala Harris for Big Tech to censor. But you know what we mean.
In 2020, Facebook obeyed a request by the FBI to censor truthful information about the Hunter Biden laptop. This was a direct violation of the First Amendment by the FBI, to help presidential candidate Joe Biden.
The Big Tech companies (other than Twitter/X) actively censor the speech of Americans on behalf of the Democrat Party and its allies in the intelligence community. Whenever they get caught, they lie and claim it was faulty computer software, faulty AI, or a faulty “algorithm.” These errors never impact the Democrat Party negatively.
Maybe that’s why Twitter/X use has grown dramatically since Elon Musk took over and turned it into a free speech platform. Americans are sick and tired of being censored by Big Tech on behalf of one political party.
