Facebook Hiring 1,000+ Censors

Filed under: Censorship,Facebook,Free Speech — Patrick Durusau @ 4:49 pm

Facebook‘s assault on free speech, translated into physical terms:

That is a scene of violence as Spanish police assault voters on Catalonia independence.

Facebook is using social and mainstream media to cloak its violence in high-minded terms:

  1. “…thwart deceptive ads crafted to knock elections off course.” Facebook knows the true “course” of elections?
  2. “…hot-button issues to turn people against one another ahead of last year’s US election.” You never saw the Willy Horton ad?
  3. “Many appear to amplify racial and social divisions.” Ditto on the Willy Horton ad
  4. “…exacerbating political clashes ahead of and following the 2016 US presidential election.” Such as: 10 Most-Shared 2012 Republican Campaign Ads on YouTube
  5. “…ads that touted fake or misleading news or drove traffic to pages with such messages…” And Facebook is going to judge this? The same Facebook that knows “how” elections are supposed to go?

Quotations from Facebook beefing up team to thwart election manipulation by Glenn Chapman.

Like the Spanish police, Facebook has chosen the side of oppression and censorship, however much it wants to hide that fact.

When you think of Facebook, think of police swinging their batons, beating, kicking protesters.

Choose your response to Facebook and anyone proven to be a Facebook censor accordingly.
