White house is working with Facebook to "fact check"

[lakerboy]

So the white house wants to tell people what is right to read and what isn't. This is a dangerous path. Imagine the outrage if Trump did this?

In that case, it would be labeled fascist. In this case, it's just big brother looking out for us.

I'm so confused man. All my life I was taught Hitler was a fascist right wing dictator. In the past few years I learned he was socialist Left winger. All I know was he controlled the state media outlets and that is definitely not the path we want to go down. America is in a bad place and it's caught on everywhere. I blame chauvin.

They also are working with the phone companies to make sure you’re not texting anything that goes against their propaganda.

We need trump back so bad

WhatsApp messages will be checked. That's "encrypted" right lol?

[TheMetsSuck]

Everyone I know said Fack WhatsApp and switched to signal


You are right about the backlash Trump would’ve gotten for this. Double standards these days...

Or we could just fix the news media and stop making them a for profit sensationalize organization.
I get the danger here but I do think if something is proven to be fake and it’s run by places I think fines should be put in place. There has to be punishment for misinformation. It’s out of control here and it’s causing a level of stupidity and also extreme divide

[goduke]

I also think if you want to be a news organization and blast shit all over you should be held accountable for misinformation. So if Bob from down the street wants to have his crazy website where he’s just blasting misinformation all day long onto Facebook and other threads there should be an accountability and here’s why.
A lot of these so called independent new sources are getting back by big money to do what they are doing. They are being paid by different views to put a lot of bad information out there and then these places can hide in the shadows.
Imagine if we knew most of these websites spreading misinformation were funded by the Koch brothers or someone on the Democratic side and not just Susie homemaker who has too much time on her hands

May as well just run all the news through the government. It would probably require a new federal agency to oversee it. We can call it the Ministry of Truth.

This used to be illegal under state propaganda laws.

But they legalized it around 2013.

Wow, that seems like a perfect solution

Bah, bah, bah.

Take note, these are the words of someone who will follow their political leaders without fail, regardless of where it to leads.

You reek of doublespeak.

U.S. Repeals Propaganda Ban, Spreads Government-Made News to Americans



JULY 14, 2013

For decades, a so-called anti-propaganda law prevented the U.S. government’s mammoth broadcasting arm from delivering programming to American audiences. But on July 2, that came silently to an end with the implementation of a new reform passed in January. The result: an unleashing of thousands of hours per week of government-funded radio and TV programs for domestic U.S. consumption in a reform initially criticized as a green light for U.S. domestic propaganda efforts.

https://foreignpolicy.com/2013/07/14/u-s-repeals-propaganda-ban-spreads-government-made-news-to-americans/

They legalized state propaganda in the united states in 2013.

Almost no one noticed.

[themike78]

People were warned by Trump all of this would happen under Biden and yet millions of idiots voted for him. Just more government control under the Dems. I guess thats what they wanted. I will never understand. But hey at least Trumps banned from Twitter right? Lol. Idiot Libs.

So you promote misinformation no matter the consequences? You don’t think there should be recourse? Instead your contribution to my post is just insults. Seems right on par to what I would expect. Don’t have a conversation where you can share your point a view and offer a different opinion that you could show why you think differently. Nah let’s not do that let’s just post an insult so you can feel good. Congrats

Ban "black lives matter" politics in sports?

[hehfest]

This is a communist takeover via Stalin and Mao. Notice they shut down churches? Yeah, you can't have a Bible in Communist regimes. Hitler fought a war to end communism. To end the people who controlled the world and worshipped a snake in the tree and ran all the banks. I'm not saying Hitler didn't do things that suppressed freedoms, but he was nothing compared to Stalin and Mao.

You're in a communist regime takeover........not a Hitler "fascist/nationalist" takeover. Hitler was a nationalist. This is NOT a Nationalist/Fascist situation right now. Not even close.

So, you should study history better LakerBoy because what's happening to you even in Canada right now (if that's where you are) is all about communism. PERIOD.

Regardless, all of this is clearly is to oppress people. No doubt. Once again, I know Hitler took away guns, and did limit freedoms too, but you need to see what Stalin and Mao did which is 100X worse.

I think Hitler/Bormann and their group knew in order to be successful against these central banker cults that run the world they would have to take away certain rights because they couldn't have problems within their own country.
