Mark Zuckerberg says Facebook won’t ban Holocaust deniers because it wants to give people ‘a voice’

34

Zuckerberg won’t ban Holocaust deniers, but he won’t give us a voice. For years now, Facebook has systematically banned, blocked, or used its algorithms to hide material that is critical of jihad terror and conservative voices in general. What is happening is being engineered at the government level. A chief officer from a major American communications company went to the terror state of Pakistan to assure the Pakistani government that Facebook would adhere to the sharia. The commitment was given by Vice President of Facebook Joel Kaplan, who called on Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan. “Facebook has reiterated its commitment to keep the platform safe and promote values that are in congruence with its community standards.”

We are seeing an unprecedented erosion in our First Amendment rights, increasingly prohibiting the flow of ideas and free expression in the public square (social media). Run by left-wing self-possessed snowflakes, social media giants are indulging their worst autocratic impulses. And because they can, it is getting worse. “Absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

Having been one of the early targets of social media censorship on Facebook, YouTube et al, I have advocated for anti-trust action against these bullying behemoths. Early last year, I wrote: “The US government has used anti-trust laws to break up monopolies. They ought to break up Facebook. Section 2 of the Sherman Act highlights particular results deemed anticompetitive by nature and prohibits actions that ‘shall monopolize, or attempt to monopolize, or combine or conspire with any other person or persons, to monopolize any part of the trade or commerce among the several States, or with foreign nations.’ Couldn’t the same be applied to information? The United States government took down Standard Oil, Alcoa, Northern Securities, the American Tobacco Company and many others without nearly the power that Facebook has.”

Under Islamic law, you cannot criticize Islam. Facebook is adhering to the most extreme and brutal ideology on the face of the earth, and that should trouble all of us, because Mark Zuckerberg has immense power. He controls the flow of information. This must be stopped. Our First Amendment freedom of speech is at stake.

“Mark Zuckerberg says Facebook won’t ban Holocaust deniers because it wants to give people ‘a voice,'” by Rob Price, Business Insider, July 19, 2018:

Mark Zuckerberg says Facebook won’t ban Holocaust deniers or conspiracy theorists like Infowars because doing so would go against Facebook’s principle of “giving people a voice.”

In a wide-ranging interview with Recode’s Kara Swisher published on Wednesday, the 34-year-old CEO discussed Facebook’s approach to tackling hoaxes and misinformation, and defended his company’s decision not to delete hoax peddlers’ posts or ban them outright.

“I’m Jewish, and there’s a set of people who deny that the Holocaust happened … I find that deeply offensive,” Zuckerberg said. “But at the end of the day, I don’t believe that our platform should take that down because I think there are things that different people get wrong. I don’t think that they’re intentionally getting it wrong.”

He said he believe it’s not Facebook’s place to remove content just because it isn’t factual, unless it risks actively causing harm to someone. “It’s hard to impugn intent and to understand the intent. I just think, as abhorrent as some of those examples are, I think the reality is also that I get things wrong when I speak publicly … I just don’t think that it is the right thing to say, ‘We’re going to take someone off the platform if they get things wrong, even multiple times.’

He added: “What we will do is we’ll say, ‘Okay, you have your page, and if you’re not trying to organize harm against someone, or attacking someone, then you can put up that content on your page, even if people might disagree with it or find it offensive.’ But that doesn’t mean that we have a responsibility to make it widely distributed in News Feed.”…

Sue facebook for promoting fake news / Anti-semitism by promoting holocaust deniers.

Left/Liberal are also making ISIS / jihadis happy by making beheading fashionable https://tinyurl.com/y7k93bs9

Insane ? When patriots and sane folks don’t unite, fund and fightback the pro-jihadis win.

Let them sue. The lawsuit would be thrown out for lack of standing. So what if one denies the Holocaust? The answer is always more speech.

As for fashion and beheading—that’s a real stretch you posit!

Double-speak, Zuckerberg; Facebook is not a voice for freedom of speech; it is a platform for fetid Muslims and rabid Leftists’ to vomit vitriol upon Israel, Jews, Christians, Democracy, America. His not censoring Holocaust deniers of which numerous are Muslims and other anti-Semitic clowns betrays this fecal brain’s true agenda, he loathes Jews/Israel and his Jewish ancestry. Facts mean not to this waste of flesh and bone; diversity, if he were honest, he detests.

How many babies did Rosemary actually have? In any case she’s certainly had more babies engendered by The Spirit of Evil, a.k.a. “Allah.”

You are 10000% right about this scumbag’s fecal brain. The actions and ugly face of this Zuckerberg creep make me want to vomit.

Remember when Zuckerberg testified before Congress and had to sit on a four-inch thick cushion to give himself a more imposing presence? Wonder if he also wears elevator shoes, you know, “Napoleon complex”?

Good one, I take it you detest this scumbag as much as I. Facebook
and its counterparts are brain-candy… the leftist thrive on it; it
only enhances their, liberals’, pathological hatred for diversity,
deeming themselves as the Apex of humanity, all others, excepting Islam,
are subhumans. Zuckerberg perceives himself as a Cyber-God, as does the
progressives/Democrats.

I am utterly floored by these cowardly and lying Jews of Facebook. They have no morals or moral impulse. It is truly as if the whole lot have been lobotomized. Most of us who read Pamela Geller have tremendous admiration for Pamela, the State of Israel, it’s amazing accomplishments and those of Jews, and then we come across utter filthy dregs like Mark Zuckerberg and marvel that there are some Westerners like him who possess no shame or instincts toward decency. Zuckerberg must have been brought up in a moral vacuum. The only clean thing about him are his fancy clothes. Beyond that he has nothing of value.

Zuckerberg may be smart in terms of computer programming, but he is clearly an idiot when it comes to life and the world.

It is interesting that Jew hatred is permitted on Jewish Zuckerberg’s Facebook, but anything about Islam is hate speech and strictly forbidden. I also think he’d quickly ban comments about his Asian wife. Why is this Jew so against comments considered negative about every group except his own? Does he think it makes him appear less Jewish and perhaps he thinks we’ll forget he’s a Jew?

Zuckerberg is just the product of another useless home and parents who had no spiritual beliefs, did not instill in him a moral code, did not instill a sense of decency, loyalty and the value of courage. For this bastard it is all about ‘me’. Someone failed to beat him up badly in a school yard and instill in him the fear of consequences for being a prize rat.

Fakebook will “give people a voice” as long as that voice doesn’t speak ill of muslums or islum…
Suckerberg is the ultimate tool of his muslum masters, but how they got to him I’ll never know, because Suckerberg doesn’t need their petrodollars.

I believe in free speech…but it is abundantly clear that Facebook sympathizes much more with certain minorities (such as Muslims) than others (such as Jews).

In his “Crusade in Europe”, General Eisenhower details the liberation of the Nazi death camps, with photos, and explains that he paused long enough to allow Army photographers and videographers to document everything that was found. He goes on to say that he was meticulous in documenting everything because the horror found was so shocking the human mind would have difficulty grasping the fact that such could still take place in the 20th Century.

Eisenhower also insisted on taking huge amounts of film footage because, as he said, someday “some bastard” would come along and claim it didn’t happen.

Facebook, I suppose is owned and operated by Jews. The Jewish people were the majority of the victims during the Holocaust. The Moslems intend to dominate the entire world and people like Zuckerberg that have money as their god are more than willing to help them.

what a lunatic! Just another means to oppress anyone who doesn’t view the world through liberal eyes.
Claims he wants to give these people a voice yet shuts down everyone who doesn’t share the liberal viewpoint while at the same time promotes and supports islamic radicals/groups and so on who post lies, hate, threats and so on -and now pro nazi propaganda!
What the hell is wrong with the world and liberals?? They all seem hell bent on eradication of the human species, freedom, democracy, and peace!
Well, I guess we all best prepare for WWIII because that is exactly where we are headed with massive uncontrolled human sacrifice and life.
The left are SERIOUSLY MENTALLY ILL!

I know many “Jews” like Zuckerberg.

They have Gentile wives, raise Buddhist or Christian children, have no investment in the well-being of the state of Israel or the Jewish people generally, don’t practice Judaism itself, and are, like Zuckerberg, usually ready to assume that anti – Semites at least have a point.

When called out on this, they often preface their remarks, as Zuckerberg did here, by proclaiming that they’re Jewish!

In this regard, Mark Zuckerberg, a “master of the universe,” is as common as dirt.

Already widely disliked, Zuckerberg keeps providing people with cause to view him in the worst possible light.

“Zuckerberg won’t ban Holocaust deniers, but he won’t give us a voice.” …

The better to suggest that those who are anti-Hate, anti-racism, anti-bigotry, and generally anti-Left-Nastism are WORSE than Holocaust Deniers – at least to any drones who hear of it.

*uckerberg is just mooning us.

He knows his audience of Libtard droolers has no idea of how much propaganda by omission is a Bigger Lie – much more serious than his overt whoppers, lies, and Big Lies …

To the rest of us – awake and paying attention – of course it appears to be what it is: The True Neo-Nastism of Left-Nastism … And it is already deadly. And it will be far more deadly.
