Far right Catholic group worried about being banned.
August 22, 2018 at 8:23 am
Quote:For a while now, social media giants (and tech giants in general) have been flexing their progressivist digital muscles by limiting access to “conservative” content on their platforms. (I use the power quotes because much of what passes for conservative conserves nothing worthwhile; it’s a fluid term.) Whether it’s Twitter “shadow banning” Trump supporters, or Facebook suddenly enforcing their “community standards” in a very lopsided way against an anti-LGBTQlmnop activist, this discrimination has been going on for years now.
In Case We’re Banned from Social Media…
As Facebook is a private organization, why should they tolerate Christian hate groups?
And without delay Peter went quickly out of the synagogue (assembly) and went unto the house of Marcellus, where Simon lodged: and much people followed him...And Peter turned unto the people that followed him and said: Ye shall now see a great and marvellous wonder. And Peter seeing a great dog bound with a strong chain, went to him and loosed him, and when he was loosed the dog received a man's voice and said unto Peter: What dost thou bid me to do, thou servant of the unspeakable and living God? Peter said unto him: Go in and say unto Simon in the midst of his company: Peter saith unto thee, Come forth abroad, for thy sake am I come to Rome, thou wicked one and deceiver of simple souls. And immediately the dog ran and entered in, and rushed into the midst of them that were with Simon, and lifted up his forefeet and in a loud voice said: Thou Simon, Peter the servant of Christ who standeth at the door saith unto thee: Come forth abroad, for thy sake am I come to Rome, thou most wicked one and deceiver of simple souls. And when Simon heard it, and beheld the incredible sight, he lost the words wherewith he was deceiving them that stood by, and all of them were amazed. (The Acts of Peter, 9)

On the other side of the spectrum, I hear about Youtube screwing over independent news channels. So maybe not quite as lopsided as they think.

They could always take their content to conservative social media..but they wont, because it sucks, and doesn't give them access to the rest of us.

If they're violating the terms of service, they chose to do that, or chose not to familiarize themselves with them. If they haven't violated the terms of service, they should not be banned.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

I don't think that anyone is paying much attention to them. Last time I checked their YouTube channel, their videos were getting single-digit views. It is both amusing and interesting, though, that a religious group that hardly anyone is paying to is worried about getting banned from Facebook!

It is quite easy to ignore and avoid undesirable content.

Oh no! A corporate entities are marginalizing the religious right!
What a conundrum! It forces these guys to choose between their two favorite gods: hate and capitalism.
WWJD?

There’s probably a dating site that has altar boys...
