    Pathetic censorship, but we all have the ability to just ignore these sites.

    I'm sure the people who were banned are now boycotting facebook.

    By being politically selective in banning only certain conservatives under the guise of "hate-speech", a non-descriptor of a nonexistent Crime category, FB proves it is a political propaganda organization subject to all financial disclosures and limits under Federal Election Laws. Since it knowingly conspires with advertisers in formulating it's politically-motivated bans, messages, ads, and misuse of personal information, it is also subject to provisions of the RICO act.

    If Zuckerburg wasn't already working for the CIA he'd die in prison.

    But will people talking about people being banned for talking about the first people being banned be banned?

    had reexamined their activities outside of Facebook, the company said.

    ^^^^^^^^ That part is awesome. The WaPo corrected their original "Farrakhan is far right" garbage at least

    Nevermind. The video is biased as hell and shouldn't be counted on for any kind of real information. It's exactly what a banned Youtuber would post. I'm done with this shit.

    Facebook really has revealed the intolerance of the left of dissenting opinions.

    Its not even the platform, the users on the left went totally apeshit after Trump won.

    I'm sure this will be studied some time in the future.

    Trump wins.

    Left goes batshit insane. Unfriends people who voted for Trump. Anyone mentions Trump, they start piling on them like fucking crazy.

    People on the right don't like being in such a toxic environment, stop engaging on facebook.
