There’s some misinformation quickly spreading about Facebook taking down all content where people are organizing protests against state “orders.” In reality what Facebook is doing is responding to requests from state officials to remove content the state dictators claim is defiance of their orders. Facebook is complying with those removal requests.(Snip)The latest effort by authoritarian-minded state governor should not come as a surprise. These are overwhelmingly blue state (democrat) governors. It is important to keep in mind the ‘stay-at-home’ and other restrictions on liberty are not laws per se’, they are orders by state governors. The authoritarian to block protest organizing on social

It is time to have a highly organized email blast to like minded, freedom loving, friends that can be circulated without the tyrants approval.

State governments cannot print money like the Feds can. Much of their revenue comes from taxes on economic activity. Sales taxes and excise taxes to name a couple. Unless they open up the economy pretty quickly, they are going to blow a huge hole in their state budgets. If there is one thing that democrats love above all else it is spending money. Factor in cratering oil prices, and some states have a huge crisis on their hands.

And who is surprised that Fakebook is on the side of the totalitarians?
Only the ones who are naive will be surprised.

Please raise your hand if you expected anything different from Fakebook and the other big social media platforms.
Afterall, Fakebook's 'Fact Checker' on the Corona Virus is an actual co-conspirator with the Wuhan Bioweapons lab, not an independent scientist.

Millions of Americans do not access FB; I am an example, as I do so perhaps 4 times a year, only to try to find a person. The easiest way is to send TEXTS off a list the telemarketers use.
If the telemarketers can contact millions of Americans, so can the protest organizers.

My impression is that democrats are increasingly justifying the 2nd Amendment with their actions. Facebook so obviously is a fifth column vehicle, they need deep and intense investigation by the FBI, at least - if the FBI could even be trusted to do such a thing.
With all of the dirt and political backstabbing the Democrats are doing to the Country they are SUPPOSED to be serving, I'm ready to set up the gallows and hang them all for treason. What despicable monsters they've become!!

Blue states control the media......but not the people! The rally organizers should say they are organizing a Biden rally to get the word out..call it the we want to work to get Biden out rally.

Good thing I deleted Facebook a long time ago when too many posters exhibited extreme puerility.

The social media gods are more than happy to lend a hand to the tyrannical governors who are determined to keep people down. This is what we are faced with and it is what it is. Refuse to comply and see how many they are willing to arrest. What have you got to lose?

Over the past 60 years or so, we've had protests for every harebrained idea under the sun. The wackier they are, the better the left likes 'em. But certain protests are treated very differently.

Apparently, FB has been taking this decision on themselves, as my Nebraska governor’s office said they never requested a blackout on information of protests in our state. FB did it anyway.

I've been saying it for some time. Governor orders, especially those taking away your Bill of Rights, are NOT law and you don't have to comply unless you're willing to live under a communist regime. Why do you think state legislatures aren't in session? They want no part of it because election time is coming up and any more stupid laws may just turn out to break the camel's back and they're removed from their cushy get rich political jobs.

Sitting in a walled fortress in Hawaii, Zuckerberg would tend to have a slanted view of the world - and it slants left.
