    Conservative non-profit group PragerU appears to be facing Facebook censorship, as many recent posts from group are suffering from a 99.9999 percent drop in engagement based on Facebook’s own dashboard. The Social Media Masters of the Universe also pulled down two PragerU videos, which it labeled “hate speech.”

    Echoing the apparent page limitation of conservative commentating duo Diamond and Silk, the conservative non-profit group PragerU — which produces educational videos on conservative issues — appears to have found its Facebook page’s reach drastically limited. The group’s Facebook page boasts three million followers, but its most recent posts have been seen by almost none of its followers, according to the Facebook dashboard.


    PragerU social media influencer Will Witt posted a screenshot of the Facebook page’s dashboard which shows a number of statistics relating to posts from the page, including the reach posts have and how many users have clicked on links in the posts. According to the photos posted by Witt, PragerU’s last nine posts have reached between one and three of their followers. Previous posts have reached between 50,000 and 95,000 of PragerU’s followers.


    Witt also posted a number of screenshots of PragerU videos that have been removed by Facebook for “hate speech.” The videos that were removed include one titled “Make Men Masculine Again,” and “Where are the Moderate Muslims?”



    Witt said in his Facebook post: “Our last 9 posts have been completely censored reaching 0 of our 3 million followers. At least two of our video posts were deleted last night for “hate speech” including a post of our recent video with The Conservative Millennial, Make Men Masculine Again.”

    PragerU faced similar censorship on YouTube where its videos were limited and placed behind an age warning. PragerU took YouTube to court over the issue but the suit was thrown out by a federal judge as the judge ruled that YouTube did not violate the First Amendmentt.

    PragerU CEO Marissa Streit previously commented on censorship by tech companies stating:

    There’s been a lot of outrage in our culture and while I’m the last person to advocate for even more hysteria, this is one issue that should unite all Americans, on either side of the political spectrum, in our collective outrage over internet censorship. We cannot allow companies like Google/YouTube to operate as authoritarian tyrants who control the flow of information in a time in history we call the information age. If we do, the information age will become a dark age, and what we currently understand as freedom of speech will become distorted and twisted until it isn’t really free speech at all. We risk losing this uniquely American heritage, which is really the foundation of our democracy.

    Breitbart News reached out to Facebook for comment but they did not immediately reply.
     
  2. Just as long as we can hear live tweets from Trump's Nuremberg rallies we have 99.99999% of what we need.

    "We can't bust heads like we used to. But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don't go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for m'shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. "Gimme five bees for a quarter," you'd say. Now where were we... oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. I didn't have any white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones..."

    Propaganda or mis direction on every thread in which you participate.

    Here we see a major injustice against Prager U because he is a conservative and a smart guy.
    You post distractions from your computer in Colombia.

  4. I can't imagine why you would have failed the personality test to get into Harvard.

    To be fair to PragerU, TrumpU gave his brand a bit of a bad name, some shadow if you were. Though his comment that Trump was "17th choice out of 17 candidates." is redeeming. Prager had also said that he could not "trust the integrity or conscience of a man or woman who publicly humiliates his or her spouse" through adultery; that those who lie to besmirch the names of others cannot be trusted; and that "any human being with a functioning conscience or a decent heart loathes torture."

    Then of course he went a bit stupid supporting him.

    It is time for Conservatives to put up their own conservative social media platforms. Then, Facebook and Twitter will be obsolete. Can you imagine if President Trump were to suddenly, ditch Twitter? Millions of his followers will leave and revenues of Twitter will plunge as well as its share price! The censorship by Facebook, Twitter is real.
     
  6. You should download the Infowars app on your phone so you can still access the most important of the conservative news.
     
  7. Twitter just needs to be taken over. $12 to $15 billion should be enough to oust the CEO and clean house and turn it into a conservative platform. Facebook & google though...Not really any way to compete with or take them down. They have their dirty fingers in everything and nobody has enough money to take control of them.

    Probably only hope is to send 50k missionaries to silicon valley and get them to convert people that work at google and facebook to Christianity.

    There were 62 million Trump voters if all of us just chipped in $10 a piece, that would easily be $620 million to build a social media platform if needed!
