grasping at straws to support a gross exaggeration doesn't help him/her either.

the point is that nobody is silencing conservative voices when you can hear them any time you want

I don’t think you can use the b-word in that context.

Can you show me those posts by the KKK, Proud boys, "militia types"?

Here are a couple pages from the left that have promoted violence, acted on that promoted violence causing Tens of Billions of Dollars in Damage, had over 40 people killed during their riots, left thousands homeless with thousands of businesses ruined. They have taken over government facilities, tried to burn down government facilities, actively throw rocks and bottles at police while shining lasers to damage their eyes.

The sad part is it is still going on yet Facebook hasn't banned a single one of these left leaning militia type organizations from their site.

https://www.facebook.com/AntiFascistHandbook/

https://www.facebook.com/BlackLivesMatter/

https://www.facebook.com/FreeCapitolHill/

Can you show me any KKK, Proud boys, right wing militia type that have had anywhere close to that body count or anywhere close to that level of violence and destruction?

Every one of these organizations has called for violence to get what they want. Please spare me that just because they allow Ben Shapiro on doesn't make Facebook any less far left the other major silicon valley players.

No. I can't show you censored posts. Because they were censored.

The point I've been trying to make is that Facebook doesn't censor posts just because they are conservative in nature. As I've pointed out, on a consistent basis, the most shared Facebook posts are all from conservative voices.

Conservative voices dominate cable news (Fox News), local news(Sinclair), Facebook and talk radio. They also dominate the Supreme Court, hold more Governors offices, and state legislatures.

Im tired of hearing rich, white, conservative men complain and play the victim card. And I'm a rich, white, mostly conservative man.

Got to love your self lothing.

What you said was "when people call for violence, which does overwhelming coming from the right". That is a bunch of B.S. The left has constantly called for violence against anyone who doesn't believe in the same thing as them. I know there are those on the right that do it too but the left gets a pass on all social media and news network. Call for the death of a cop...no big deal...no ban...no pushback, call for the death of a white male...no big deal...no ban...no pushback, call for violence against a conservative...no big deal...no ban...no pushback, call for the death of a sitting conservative president...no big deal...no ban...no pushback. If any of those thing had come from a white male against someone who was black they would be banned from every platform out there. They would have lost their job and the leftist news media would have ran with the story for a week.

Just look at the psychiatrist Aruna Khilanani who delivered a lecture at Yale University’s Child Study Center just over a week ago.

Her statements were:

“I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body, and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step. Like I did the world a *******ing favor,”


“We keep forgetting that directly talking [to white people] about race is a waste of our breath,” Khilanani said. “We are asking a demented, violent predator who thinks that they are a saint or a superhero, to accept responsibility. It ain’t gonna happen.”

If any white person had said that same thing about any other person they would have been fired, cancelled, banned and had the news talking about it for at least a month. What happened to her...NOTHING. Still on facebook, still on twitter, still on Instagram, still employed, no protests, no outraged media.

Lets not forget about Justin Tyran Roberts who went on a 2 state shooting spree as he hunted White Men 6 days ago shooting 5 people. No mention on CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, Washington Post, NPR, New York Times, ect. The only semi left site that covered it was Yahoo. If this had been reversed and it was one of those "militia types" there would be rioting, looting, nonstop coverage from all of those MSM mentioned, the Democrats would have had 100 press conferences. Yet you have the gall to tell me that the conservatives are the ones that are preaching violence.

You don't seem to understand that Just because Fox is out there doesn't mean they control the narrative. It is a drop in the bucket compared to Reddit, Twitter, New York Times, Washington Post, CBS, NBC, Amazon, Coke, all of Hollywood, Apple, Google and just about every other silicon valley operator out there are left to hard left with zero conservatives.

No one is playing the victim I am just tired of people telling me that the media is not far left leaning. I mean we all want to know what Joe Bidens favorite flavor of ice cream is but sometimes it is nice to actually ask about the 600% rise of kids in cages they were so concerned about 10 months ago.

Maybe we complain because we HAVE become the targeted demographic thus making us the victims.

You’re also grossly misguided (and other adjectives, too).
