XC.Morrison Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Or maybe not...... It’s not all that surprising given that their Vice President of U.S. Public Policy is none other than Joel Kaplan. Within Facebook, Kaplan is seen as a strong conservative voice.[4] He has helped place conservatives in key positions in the company, and advocated for the interests of the right-wing websites Breitbart News and The Daily Caller within the company.[5][3][6] He has successfully advocated for changes in Facebook's algorithm to promote the interests of right-wing publications,[3] and successfully prevented Facebook from closing down Facebook groups that circulate fake news, arguing that doing so would disproportionately target conservatives.[7] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Kaplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted July 22, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted July 22, 2020 Without question there is some silencing of conservative views on social media but its not nearly enough to kill the movement. No matter what version I go on there are tons of loud and proud Trump supporters. Its actually mind boggling. I'm sure there is the same for Biden or Antifa or whatever but my pages are FILLED with pro America, Pro Trump posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it seems about even to me. What’s amazing to me the absolute hate for trump. I mean I think he’s an asshole, but some of these folks are just bitter 24/7. That’s no way to live.

That’s no way to live. I hardly go on facebook for anything but marketplace so I can't really comment there. But on Instagram and yes TikTok virtually 50-75% of my feeds are conservative or pro Trump in some nature or another. The rest are sleds, hunting, fishing and hot chicks. Fortunately the hot chicks also make up a good portion of the pro Trump, hunting, fishing or conservative feeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you likely know, just like CNN and others did back in 16, they lie to sway ignorant sheeple into going with the flow/masses. I was glad to see it backfired big time on them.

Cold War Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 You would have to be a fool to openly support Trump on social media. I try to tell my friends, a lot of them have their own business or in highly public jobs, but they just don’t get it. They’re not loons and think it is all in good fun. It doesn’t occur to them that there is lunatics out there that will to hurt them or their families over merely posting Trump memes or all lives matter memes. This poor guy found out the hard way. Nice guy, who had no idea posting... I support the president Would destroy his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
