Fakebook sides with antisemites and black nationalists.

They’ve made their bed.

Agreed. Perhaps another $16-20 billion loss will wake em up, but I doubt it.
They need a real good “awakening”.

So zuckerberg’s “hate speech” policy is a complete sham - with no substance in reality. Or else, he thinks it’s just fine, no problem when hate- filled bigots make up dangerous lies - so long as they attack specifically Jewish people.

Facebook, like Info Wars and Fox News has the right to determine the editorial slant of their platform.

As does the EIB Radio network.

Such a shame to see conservatives take the crybaby route, rather than trying to compete against FB.

There’s a whole internet out there folks. Learn some coding or programming, think up a good website name, hire some investors, and compete.

Yes, they do. Apparently it’s hypocrisy in their TOS.

InfoWars, EIB and Fox are content providers.
Fakebook is a platform. They have no content of their own. The Common Carrier legal theory should prevail.

They permit what they like.

They ban or suppress what they do not like.

They like Farrakhan. They like anti-Semitism. They like racism directed against white males.

They do not like InfoWars. They do not like any conservative alternative news, like Breitbart or Drudge.

And you already know what they think about FR.

Long been done with FaceBook, and personally, anyone that still has an active account with FaceBook needs their heads examined.

your hypothetical website will be backpaged in the search engines and your site would be blacklisted by advertisers.

they fired the founder and CEO of firefox-mozilla because he gave to a political proposition that passed by majority vote. the iris illegally leaked his name as a contributor.

And unless you market your own phone, expect your site’s app will be blocked by iTunes.

And expect to find yourself in court if you block PFLAG, BLM, NOI, CAIR. You have to bake that cake for them, no refusal.

Nay, Facebook is content. The user’s postings are the content. The minuscule news feeds are content from another source. The chat and mail are content.

That they choose to publish other content is a secondary business. They do not charge other content providers. They just make their service available to others (some others) in order to keep their users viewing their paid advertising.

Not at all unlike Fox or EIB.

The PLATFORM is the world wide web and the underlying internet and naming services. And that’s what must be protected.

Not the triviality of just another content provider.

When the entire enforcement bureaucracy is against you it is foolish to rely on the enforcement bureaucracy. If we really believe in the free market, then that us where we should put our efforts. the format is known, there is no magic in the code,it comes down to a great name and marketing. lets have a contest for a great name. BTW, Facebook is a great name. we can do better. The money is available at the drop of a hat.

Hmm, that opens up the possibility that it’s not hate speech at all, and it’s all true. *cough*
