Oldie but a goodie.
They also labeled themselves as "entertainment" and not news to wiggle out of a couple lawsuits, and one of their lawyers argued in front of a judge that no sane person would believe their programs to get out of another lawsuit.
Uh good? Social media should be censored pretty fucking frequently. I honestly feel like if Facebook just disallowed any discussion or advertising for anything political on their platform the electorate would be more informed.
Fox Business? The network that aired unapologetic bigot Lou Dobbs' show every single night for years?
Facebook is about to go down in a flaming pile of dogshit. Just like twitter.
It amuses the hell out of me every time the conservatives whine about their brazen disinformation getting censored, since whenenver and wherever they get an opportunity (including, especially ironically, Facebook), they reveal themselves to be the most cowardly censorious people on the planet.
Everywhere, without exception, where conservatives have control, anything that even hints at undermining their comforting delusions is instantly censored.
But if anybody dares to censor anything they might want to say, including overt and deliberate lies, they wail and cry like the spoiled children they are.
In Monday’s letter, Zuckerberg also wrote about throttling the Hunter Biden laptop story.
He wrote that the FBI warned his company about "a potential Russian disinformation operation" regarding the Biden family and Burisma, leading up to the 2020 election.
Trump's WH in fall 2020....
Yeah Zuck, where were we without the Covid humor with thousands dying?
Fuck this
Yeah, these hypocritical dipshits are the first to cheer on Palestinians getting deplatformed and harassed, and they want me to give a shit that they were occasionally prevented from spreading misinformation about medical realities in the middle of a pandemic? A middle finger the size of the sun isn't big enough for these assholes.
