If you are a Conservative-oriented person active in posting
and reading on various Social Media platforms, you are probably quite aware the
current Social Media giants do more than lean Left. Those giants also have an
agenda to promote all things and ideology Left. You probably have also realized
part and parcel of that agenda is to PREVENT YOU -- a Conservative -- from
being successful on their Social Media platforms. INDEED, this means censorship
and/or banning.
On a personal level I have experienced Social Media Jail on
Facebook and Google+. (Neither you nor I
will need to worry about Google+ censorship/jail by early April because Google
is shutting down the non-commercial usage of G+.)
I operate three blogs. More lately my flagship blog SlantRight 2.0 seems
to be on the Facebook radar. Quite suspiciously Facebook has flagged SlantRight 2.0 shared posts as being against
the platform’s community standards. This is interesting since I don’t engage in
vulgarity, profanity and incitement to violence.
My subject matter promotes Conservative thought, is
pro-Christian, Pro-Israel, Pro-Christian Zionist and to a Multiculturalist’s
chagrin – I do not shy away from exposing the dark side of Islam both from that
theopolitical faith’s own revered writings and current events. In full
disclosure I am supportive of Biblical Morality which among other things places
me in the present day politically incorrect side of criticizing all things
same-sex. This kind of criticism has earned a special epithet from the Left
known as homophobia. I am labelled a homophobe even though I condemn violence
in any form against those practicing the various forms of homosexually. God
Almighty will judge LGBTQ practitioner choices and not any human being and
certainly not I. For that matter, there are probably many actions a
Conservative should ask forgiveness to escape an end of the age Final Judgment
including myself. (One of the awesome aspects of God’s Grace in Christ Jesus is
Mercy for all humanity have fallen short due to sin. Mini path to personal
Redemption:
God’s Righteousness Through Faith
21 But
now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being
witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22 even
the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all [a]and on all who believe.
For there is no difference; 23 for all
have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being
justified [b]freely by His grace through
the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God
set forth as a [c]propitiation by His blood,
through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God
had passed over the sins that were previously committed, 26 to
demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and
the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. [Romans 3: 21-26 NKJV])
Thank God there are Social Media platforms beginning to
emerge as a result of the big-dog platforms skewing Left. And yet I’m not
exactly an Internet guru and I have found my learning curve for using emerging
platforms not always equal to usability. Hence as yet, I have a sense dissatisfaction
of the more emerging Conservative-friendly platforms which may be more my
problem with adapting to different formats. As the big-dog Social Media becomes
more and more hostile toward Conservatives, I suspect I’ll have to make a
greater effort to adapt.
I won’t mention the new Social Media I had an utter failure
in using, but there are three that adaptability seems easier. GAB is a bit of an
alternative to Twitter. You can post with 300 characters at GAB. But GAB has had
server issues recently when a mass murderer was discovered to have used GAB,
the server company used by GAB gave them the boot. GAB is up and running again
with a new server.
MeWe
seems to be taking off currently. MeWe is kind of a combo G+ and Facebook. So
far though I have not figured out how to link to individual posts in a MeWe
Group. Again, the problem might be my skill set more than a MeWe issue. Here is
my MeWe Profile Page.
A Social Media platform I find extremely promising is USA Life. USA Life is
modeled so much like Facebook, it may be the future Conservative alternative.
Go to my USA Life Profile
Page and become my friend.
I’ve noticed when I complain of Facebook censorship on the
newer platforms, I’m beginning to get responses asking me why don’t I just
abandon Facebook? One reason is I’m an old dog that doesn’t like to learn new
tricks. Until censorship became a problem at Facebook, it seemed the most
effective way to share my blog posts. I am thinking USA Life might actually
become competitive to Facebook’s future. Until then I’ll keep protesting
Facebook censorship as long as the Facebook despots allow me to share. I
suspect a day will come when Facebook despots will ban me for good.
Along the lines of censorship and banning, I was conversing
with a Counterjihad author (due to the potential
of censorship I hesitate to share the name). We spoke of our mutual censorship
experiences on Facebook. He provided some insight on Conservative usage on
Facebook.
He senses that above Facebook algorithms digitally hunting
down Conservatives, he believes there are people among your friend lists who
lean Left or are downright Liberal trolls who make it their objective to report
your Conservative content as offensive. Whether or not it is actually offensive
matters little. There is no recourse to rebut a false report with Facebook.
The suggestion is to go through your friend list and delete
suspicion looking friends. Check out their views from their posts. If you
determine a friend leans Left, that person can be suspected of reporting your Conservative
content. Delete them.
Below are some posts exposing Social Media Platforms with a
Left-Wing anti-Conservative agenda and their methods.

Earlier today, Tommy Robinson was banned from Facebook and
Instagram. YouTube won't be far behind. YouTube is removing more and more
content based on false flags. Videos that contain absolutely no hate speech are
being removed as hate speech, and creators that haven't violated any rules or
guidelines are receiving strikes and having their privileges (e.g.
livestreaming) revoked. YouTube's Community Guidelines strike system is pure
garbage. YouTube is also punishing content creators for comments left on their
videos. Perhaps the YouTube Creator Academy can address these problems.

INSIDER GOES PUBLIC: 'SUPPRESSION' FOR CONSERVATIVES
Admits 'special features' used to 'deboost' traffic during elections
WND Writers
February 27, 2019
A Facebook insider has confirmed the social-media
giant discriminates against conservatives through software
manipulation, using “special features” to “deboost” their traffic, especially
near elections.
The former employee of the Big Tech firm now works
with James O’Keefe’s Project
Veritas, which released a video of her testimony.

Project Veritas has obtained and
published documents and presentation materials from a former Facebook insider.
This information describes how Facebook engineers plan and go about policing
political speech. Screenshots from a Facebook workstation show the specific
technical actions taken against political figures, as well as "[e]xisting
strategies" taken to combat political speech.
She was a content review analyst for the intellectual
property department, dealing with copyright and trademark claims.
As part of her work, she noticed some odd things on various
accounts.
For example, one of the company’s engineers, Danny Ben
David, had created an item called “actiondeboostlivedistribution” and was
attaching it to accounts belonging to conservatives.
The insider said the obvious intent was to prevent
distribution of that particular page or video.
It was one of the “methods of suppression,” she said.
It was done by disabling routine features on the
page such as notifications.
“I would see it on several different conservatives pages,”
she said, noting pages for Mike Cernovich, Steven Crowder and the Daily Caller.
She also pointed out Facebook was doing the throttling and
even taking down material without letting the user know.
The insider noted company CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s claim
to Congress, “We want to make sure we have the widest possible expression.”
He said he didn’t want his company acting on the political ideology
of content.
But the former Facebook employee said that’s
exactly what is not happening.
Project Veritas tried to obtain comment from David, who
refused.
Another Facebook employee behind the campaign was Seiji
Yamamoto, who wrote internally about his “news feed reduction strategy.”
He was concerned about “hate speech” but said there’s “quite
a bit of content near the perimeter of hate speech that we need to address as
well.”
Yamamoto described it as speech that “offends.”
Facebook, the report explained, also targets right-leaning
individuals and organizations by labeling terms they use as offensive. One
example was “MSM,” for mainstream media.
Yamamoto also refused to comment to Project Veritas.
The strategy includes “drastically limited bandwidth,” auto
logouts for users and posts that “fail to upload.”
“They believe the election of Donald Trump was a fluke, it
shouldn’t have happened,” the insider said, so Facebook is now trying to
“influence elections.”
The company internally even discussed ratting out people it
considers offensive by notifying everyone in their friends network.
“Fear of being outed … is what regulates behavior in real
life and we should reintroduce that to the online world,” the company’s
internal discussion noted.
Project Veritas posted
online documents supporting the insider.
Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe said that to expose
dishonesty and censorship in big tech companies, he will be relying upon more
insiders, informants and leakers in the future.
“Our future depends on those who are willing to give up
everything for what they believe.”
“When approached for comment, author and filmmaker Mike
Cernovich said the troubling issue is that Facebook could just ‘make stuff up’
about people through these systems. ‘Facebook, or an individual at Facebook,
has the unilateral power to create false allegations against someone he or she
doesn’t like. The person accused not only can’t do anything about the
allegation, they don’t even have an idea the allegation was made,’ said
Cernovich,” Project Veritas said.

Facebook bans Tommy Robinson,
falsely claiming he calls for violence against Muslims
FEB 26,
2019 4:00 PM
A Muslim activist in the UK is claiming credit for this:
I can reveal I recently had a meeting with Facebook to discuss #TommyRobinson pages and their impact in brainwashing his supporters to become terrorist and use violence against Muslims. A very good result and I am proud of my role.— Mohammed Shafiq (@mshafiquk) February 26, 2019
However, Tommy Robinson says: “…the reasons they’ve given
are just complete lies. They’re saying I incited violence and that I openly
called for violence against Muslims, that’s just a lie. If that was the case
then they could show evidence of messages where I’d said that but I never
have.”
Whatever you may think of Tommy Robinson, fascists such as
Mohammed Shafiq are not going to stop with him. It will soon be impossible to
voice any opposition to jihad mass murder or Sharia oppression of women, gays,
and others on any social media platform. Then the jihad will be able to advance
unopposed and unimpeded, which is the ultimate goal of all these efforts to
silence critics of jihad terror.
“Tommy Robinson Banned from Facebook, Instagram,” by Oliver
JJ Lane, Breitbart, February 26, 2019:
Facebook has banned British citizen
journalist and street organiser Tommy Robinson from its platforms, including
Instagram, in a move that comes days after he released a new documentary
exposing what he claimed to be dishonest practise at establishment media giant
BBC.
The social media giant claimed in a
statement published Tuesday that Tommy Robinson’s own Facebook page, which had
around one million ‘likes’ before deletion, “has repeatedly broken [Facebook
community] standards, posting material that uses dehumanizing language and
calls for violence targeted at Muslims. He has also behaved in ways that
violate our policies around organized hate.”
Facebook claimed the move “is not a
decision we take lightly.”
Responding to the ban, English
Defence League founder turned citizen journalist Tommy Robinson told Breitbart
London: “…the reasons they’ve given are just complete lies. They’re saying I
incited violence and that I openly called for violence against Muslims, that’s
just a lie. If that was the case then they could show evidence of messages
where I’d said that but I never have.
“This is continued censorship which
we all knew was coming but its been done instantly because of my documentary
which exposed the establishment working with Hope not Hate, working with the
BBC in order to destroy my name to the nation. When I exposed what they were
doing they’ve put down the pressure to completely delete me from the internet.
This has to show people the levels they’re gonna go to silence any opposition
to mass migration and the Islamisation of this nation.”
Robinson’s removal from the
platform is only the latest in a series of bans targeting the campaigner in
recent years. He was de-platformed by
Twitter in May 2018, banned
from receiving payments by Paypal in November of that year, and had
Youtube videos blocked from
earning revenue in January 2019.
Mr Robinson told Breitbart London
that he would be working on his own mobile app for live streaming after
his removal from several social media sites.
It is not clear what actions were
taken by Mr Robinson’s social media page in the recent past to cause Facebook’s
decision to remove him now, but the move does come just days after he released
an exposé documentary claiming to reveal underhanded dealings at British state
broadcaster the BBC. In the hour-long film, which Robinson uploaded to his
Facebook page, it is alleged the BBC collaborated with far-left activist
organisation HOPE Not Hate to create what was apparently called a “Tommy
Takedown”.
Robinson’s film debuted at a
protest he held in Manchester, England, outside the offices of the BBC where
the Panorama documentary series is produced. Thousands are
reported to have attended the heavily-policed event.
In the film, top BBC documentary
maker John Sweeney can be seen being confronted by Robinson with undercover
footage of him making apparently racist and classist
statements. It is believed at least some of the claims and counterclaims
between Mr Robinson, the BBC, and HOPE Not Hate may yet be contested in court.
Responding to the ban, Tommy
Robinson ally and UKIP leader Gerard Batten said the rise of censorship showed
the nation was headed towards a “dark place.” He said: “Without any explanation
whatsoever, the personal Facebook accounts of key UKIP members and Tommy
Robinson have been removed….
