Facebook and Twitter are hate America to the core. F'em both.

Quote:When it comes to violating Facebook's guidelines, it is often anyone's guess what will fly and what will fall.

As President Trump's rhetoric against social media companies and censorship gains momentum following Twitter's decision to red flag some of his posts for containing false information or glorifying violence, troubling questions still plague Facebook's mixed censorship policies.

"Facebook has a massive set of content guidelines that are so broad and extensive they could ban almost any content," Dan Gainor, VP of Business and Culture Media Research Center, told Fox News. "In addition, Facebook just announced a new Oversight Board that will handle content appeals. That board is overwhelmingly international and lacks American support for First Amendment ideals."

Nonetheless, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has sought to distance his platform from the President's Twitter feud, insisting in an interview on Fox News this week that his company has "a different policy than Twitter," and that they are "stronger on free expression" than other tech giants.

Earlier this week, Trump announced he would introduce legislation – by executive order – that would diminish a law that ultimately protects Internet companies and social media conglomerates such as Twitter and Facebook from statutory liability protections, and would cut federal funding for tech companies that engage in censorship and political conduct.

But for foreign governments and interests groups, there may be more wiggle room, analysts contend.

For example, Iran-backed groups have had a long track record of using the platform for propaganda – and lethal – purposes, of which both the shadowy outfits behind them and Facebook itself has seemingly profited.

Last year, Facebook was filled with "sponsored" content featuring signs "Death to America."

Delete accounts. I don't have any to delete. I'm a grown man.

Facebook uses Politifact, that it calls an Independent Fact Checker. The reality is Politifact was founded by the Poynter Institute. An ultra liberal organization based in Tampa Florida.

It’s no surprise that “Death to America” posts aren’t considered offensive and conservative posting supporting America are.

Twitter, Instagram and Facebook are liberal cesspools.
