    Remember when right wingers boycotted Nike then Nike had record sales. Good stuff.

    The ad is trying to get facebook to silence people, shut them up. Like breitbart for example.

    Its intimidation, if you run ads on facebook you're implicit in racism.

    We all know thats insane.

  3. So you're okay with free speech that has content you approve of. Otherwise it is not free speech? Just curious: is the content in the ad false or factual? Not the opinion, but the content leading up to it. I believe the content is factual. So are you upset with the factual content or the fact that someone is exercising their free speech in addressing how the factual content be dealt with?

    There is going to be a lot of backlash coming from white people who have been demonized by BLM and Antifa thugs although, extreme liberal white people in Hollywood get a pass? That is the sheer hypocrisy of the extreme liberal Democrats. White people are a good chunk of the consumers in the US. What happens if you piss them off by siding with BLM and Antifa thugs? I am still boycotting NFL, NBA, Starbucks, Nike and other extreme liberal businesses. No way in hell will I ever buy their products. Those businesses who wish to join them, go right ahead. How many Trump supporters will support boycotts against these businesses? It is coming as the silent majority makes its voices heard, loud and clear.

    The content is total opinion.

    "They amplified white nationalists by including news sources with known extremist ties"

    Umm, no.

    A news outlet that clearly leans right of center does not make it "extremist tied and white nationalist propaganda"

    do in china.

    What are you talking about?

    They are referring to the fact that facebook has breitbart news as "trusted news source" and daily caller a fact checking source.

    They are pissed about that, how dare they. lol

    Its intimidation.

    They are using the race card to financially penalize a company.

    Its a smear campaign and LA time is implicit.

    Look up libel and slander.

    Both illegal, not free speech.
