Worse than that - FB censors call to weigh SCOTUS nominee Amy Coney Barrett against a duck to prove she's not a witch. I mean, what's the world coming to when you can't do a quick duck check against a possible witch? Shocking! Facebook really should be ashamed of themselves, interfering in a SCOTUS election in this way - and after a challenge by the BabylonBee, FBook doubled down on their eleckshun interference. (Oh, and free speech right to satire - but that's -so- mundane.) : Netizens Slam Facebook’s ‘Woke Police’ For Banning Babylon Bee Satire on Grilling of Judge Barrett https://sputniknews.com/us/202010211080834168-netizens-slam-facebooks-woke-p... Last Wednesday, the news satire website Babylon Bee ran a story with the headline, "Senator Hirono Demands ACB Be Weighed Against A Duck To See If She Is A Witch," in reference to the grilling Judge Amy Coney Barrett faced from a Hawaii senator, who asked the judge if she had ever "sexually assaulted" anyone. Facebook has removed an article published by the conservative satirical site The Babylon Bee, mocking the grilling that Supreme Court nominee Judge Amy Coney Barrett came under from Hawaii's Democratic Senator Mazie Hirono during last week's confirmation hearing. Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon slammed the decision by the social media giant, revealing on Twitter the heated debate the satirical piece had triggered. So after a manual review, Facebook says they stand by their decision to pull down this article and demonetize our page. I'm not kidding. They say this article "incites violence."

Political censorship by entrenched partisan media...
" Facebook-owned Instagram has announced that will ban all QAnon accounts, including ones that don’t promote violence, while refusing to remove ISIS propaganda accounts that celebrate 9/11 under the justification that “people may express themselves differently.”
In an update to its policy announced yesterday, Facebook said that it was moving beyond a measure taken back in August that removed QAnon accounts which contained “discussions of potential violence.”
“We’ve seen other QAnon content tied to different forms of real world harm, including recent claims that the west coast wildfires were started by certain groups, which diverted attention of local officials from fighting the fires,” said the social media giant.
Facebook specified that it would “remove any Facebook Pages, Groups and Instagram accounts representing QAnon, even if they contain no violent content.”
Many pointed out the hypocrisy of Antifa accounts still being allowed on the platform despite the movement’s involvement in numerous violent riots over the last six months.
But not Antifa, even though they're literally a terrorist organization with cells in every major city, complete with uniforms and flags. https://t.co/mQAewCzGKW — Mark Dice (@MarkDice) October 6, 2020
While banning all QAnon content, Instagram has simultaneously refused to remove literal ISIS propaganda accounts that celebrate 9/11.
As the Sun reveals, one such account posted an image of the World Trade Center being hit by a plane along with the caption, “One of the most beautiful scenes.”
As recently as Sunday the Abogasm_1990 account posted an execution clip, and was followed by “20 other pro-IS accounts with more than 7,700 followers.”
However, even after The Center for Countering Digital Hate reported the accounts to Instagram, the social media network refused to remove them, saying no breach of guidelines had occurred.
Partially defending the content, Instagram explained that as “a global community we understand people may express themselves differently.”
“It is unbelievably irresponsible, but sadly unsurprising,” said CCDH chief exec Imran Ahmed.
So mere discussion of QAnon is completely banned, but actual glorification of terror attacks against the United States are just part of free speech, according to Instagram. "
