Hypocrisy! CNN accuses Facebook of promoting Fake News

World's leading purveyor of Fake News condemns Facebook for not banning groups they disagree with. CNN seems to be a favorite of the village idiots here, right Doogie?

CNN has posted conspiracies like "Russian bots" and fake news like "hands up, don't shoot". Hosts are deranged about Trump.

When asked by this reporter how the company could claim it was serious about tackling the problem of misinformation online while simultaneously allowing InfoWars to maintain a page with nearly one million followers on its website, Hegeman said that the company does not "take down false news."

"I guess just for being false that doesn't violate the community standards," Hegeman said, explaining that InfoWars has "not violated something that would result in them being taken down."

Hegeman added, "I think part of the fundamental thing here is that we created Facebook to be a place where different people can have a voice. And different publishers have very different points of view."

Lies from InfoWars have lead to death threats against shooting victims and widespread harassment from nutcases.

Frankly I think the only reason Facebook isn't willing to ban it is because it's so popular.

Be careful, ThreeTenToYuma is going to report you for using "village idiots."

THe beauty of the internet is it was a place where everyone could have a voice.

Unfortunately when that happens we realize how small a miniroty the corporate demokkkrat media represents. Which leads to censorship under the name of “fairness”. And “anti hate speach”. While all they do is hate.

Big demokkkrat social media couldn’t wait to implement its fascism and start instilling guerrilla censorship. Because they of course know what’s “fair”.

The demokkkrats fascist hate is on display for all to see. It’s a beautiful thing. And the people are responding accordingly.

You don't know what fascism or censorship are. You also don't comprehend the concept of a privately owned company maintaining its own property.

You don't comprehend much at all, actually. You're very ignorant and childish. Also, you're very hateful. VERY hateful.

FB removing nonsense content isn't the same as the homophobic Baker.

If someone wants to be political with their business and discriminate against someone else, the general public should know. If you support the Baker and their decision, you go and support their bakery. If you don't support their decision, you don't support their business. Simple.

And drumpf does control fux news (the largest news network in Merica) which is all that's needed to control his demographic

I see. So dumbheads like you decide whats "nonsense" or not. Why not simply get lost and try your fascist point of view on the other SJW iditos?

[–] PresidentJoffrey (396) 7 years ago

It's not me making these decisions, it's FB. And FB doing what it wants with its business is just the same as the baker that doesn't want to make a cake for gay couples.

People know FB does this and still support it. People know what the baker did and don't want to support them. Simple.

I love when the alt right call the left fascist, it really shows how little they know.

I know enough that I see someone which hates freedom of speech and wants to opress others his fragile point of view to others as fascists. Thats how they work.

And about the religious baker (which is only in your opinion homophobic - in reality he just cant support them, cause of religious reasons. Strangely thats otherwise a valid explenation when SJW defend islamic extremists in their neighborhood): He doesnt have a monopoly a social media frameworks:) . If you control the market you have to follow antitrust laws.

Its the same with PayPal. They start to kick users which dont have the same political point of view. Indeed thats completely prohibited by US law.

So .... small bakery could deny services if its against his religious belief. Monopolies like FaceBook or PayPal .... cant.

Censorship is to make your opponents shout! And thats what dying FakeNewsNetwork does!
