But hey, according to the right Zuckerberg is biased against them…even though it turns out he’s been meeting with conservatives secretly. Tucker Carlson, Lindsey Graham, Hugh Hewett, Mary Katharine Ham, conservative commentator Ben Shapiro, AEI fellow and former Washington Free Beacon editor Matt Continetti, Town Hall editor and Fox News contributor Guy Benson, Media Research Center founder Brent Bozell, and Fox News contributor Byron York all have had meetings with him. Now FB has a political ads policy that allows conservatives to lie through their teeth without any problem because there will be no fact-checking done.
You know who hasn’t had secret meetings with him? Liberals.
Mussolini established a High Commission for the press in the spring of 1929. Insisting that the Commission would not interfere with the freedom of the press, Mussolini’s Keeper of the Seals, Alfredo Rocco, nevertheless maintained an exception for “any activity contrary to the national interest,” “faithfulness to the Fatherland” naturally assuming the position of ultimate importance. Hitler had Goebbels, who took control of all media inside of Germany and made sure Nazism was shown in the most favorable light. While it seems strange to put someone with the name Zuckerberg in the same category, it’s looking like that shoe may fit.
FB is a data sieve. That’s all the commercial version has ever been. It’s politically and morally agnostic but supports money enthusiastically. If propaganda pays, FB is there with both hands out.

I fully quit five years ago, but wouldn’t be surprised to find that they are still somehow sucking data from me.

Facebook has now topped Fox (hate&fake) News as the number one propaganda machine.

Everyone refers to 1984 so often, you don’t need to have read it, which is good ‘cause it’s a slog.
