Donald Trump Jr. at last week's Trump rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin. By Tony Romm Tony Romm Staff writer covering technology policy Email Bio Follow May 3 at 12:49 PM Donald Trump Jr. on Friday charged that Facebook had engaged in a “purposeful & calculated silencing of conservatives” online, a day after the social-networking giant permanently banned far-right figures and organizations including Alex Jones, the host of InfoWars.
— Donald Trump Jr. May 3, 2019 Spokespeople for Facebook and Trump Jr. did not immediately respond to a request for comment. [Facebook bans extremist leaders including Louis Farrakhan, Alex Jones, Milo Yiannopoulos for being ‘dangerous’]
Terms of Service are agreed to when you sign on. No one reads them, but break the terms & they can bounce you.
They continue to bat for the other team. Sad
So let ‘em bash the outfit that helped give realDonaldTrump the election.
Siempre lo mismo con fasebook. Y no hay otro parecido. ¿ cuesta tanto haser otro fasebook?
Junior needs to shut the heck up ! Junior and his entire family have been LIFELONG DEMOCRATS!! They literally just became republicans because DerandgedDonald wanted to run as a Repub because he thought repubs are “stupid” and he would win the fly over states. He was right !
Wow!! TRUMP SUPPORT WHITE TYPE NATIONALISTS, RACISMM, HATRED TO FOREIGNERS, EXCEPT DICTATORS AND MONEY TALKS!!!
If far-left users spew daily hatred and incite violence daily, they would be banned too.
Actually Don Jr they are anti Jewish being taken down
Anyone standing up for a Facebook is clearly wrong for the country...
So either FB is a publisher and liable for any and all criminal activity if it's users or it is in violation of several FEC laws.n
Please why can’t you be a bit honest you know exactly what he means and you know that discriminatory policies against conservatives view are a social media policy I am certain Trump is not upset Farrakhan was kicked off the radical democrats might be
DonaldJTrumpJr is irrelevant and not worthy of note. The Diaper is dirty and going to prison.
DonaldJTrumpJr your mother should have swallowed
And this seems to Trump a greater priority than say ... confronting the Russians about their interference in our elections? Geez.
Just looking at him makes me laugh
🤪
Trump acknowledges banned conservatives are the right wing terrorists.
Nazis = conservatives Got it.
he has awoken.
Cuz everyone has known for decades and decades that Donald Trump Jr. is such a conservative. What a Fucking joke this family is. Do none of them have lives they need to attend to. Donald Trump Jr. might be the most pathetic out of all of them though.
He’s seriously defending these people? Omg 😲
Thank you Facebook! Ban them all!
Why are you still on DonaldJTrumpJr ?
Heyyyy... you know what?! We can all say whatever we are thinking at the moment, like that guy, with no evidence. Let's do this!
The left knows it can’t beat the right on a level playing field. The answer? Ban everyone that could destroy you in a debate! TwitterBan4IRGC
Silence DonaldJTrumpJr
Cool. Maybe he and his friends and should boycott it and go away.
I don't really give a hoot what this d-bag has to say. Been riding his father's coattails his whole life. I hope he runs for office just to watch him get slammed!
Can we ban some far-left socialists too?
Don Jr......irrelevant 🤢🤮🤪💩
Censorship is un-American
How much more ignorant can a person be, wait, how about being the fall guy for your Dad, so yes, he hasn’t reached full capabilities
Why do they not ban far left users ? And believe me it's not a few, more and more every day.
Butthead speaks louder without his brother BEavers
This dude thinks he’s going to be President some day
WP and FB can all go to hell.
Dump and Ivana should’ve used birth control the night Junior Mint was spawned.
The hate-filled rhetoric spews from Conservatives, and the Trump co. wants them back on Social Media. Figures.
Free speech is free speech. If extremist speech bothers you shut down your newspaper.
An important part of trump's base. MustScrambleForVotes
.The CrookedTrumpFamily only take advantage of 1 group of people! America doesn’t care about this CrookedFamily’s opinions! The only way that this CrookedFamily think they can win again is by dividing & spreading hate! NOMÁS! BLUEWAVE CNN CBS TheRickWilson SenFeinstein
For the record I think we need two FB. A Fox n Friends and one for sane people. Their paths should never cross.
None of the high profile people banned were 'conservative' (at least in the sense of when that term still had real meaning) and just further shows that DonaldJTrumpJr has no idea what conservative is supposed to mean.
DonaldJTrumpJr is on the side of white supremacists and people who harass the parents of school shootings. Huh.
Cry me a river Trump’s smart son or wait would that be Eric Trump now. Bigotry and hate does not bring America together, which Alex Jones and the rest did since Trumps been elected
His comment speaks volumes about the ugliness of “some fine people on one side.”
You deliberately mischaracterized anti-Semite Farrakhan as far-right, knowing his ties to the Women’s March. Stop lying!
DonaldJTrumpJr is an imbecile beyond measure.
The friends you keep.
He’s a bigger IDIOT than his father!!! Who gives a hoot what he says or thinks
Yeah junior or Fredo as he is also known is an idiot. DerangedDonald
Good. 👊 FaceBook owes us one. Help keep Trump from getting re-elected, then Facebook's off the hook.
Junior wouldn’t recognize a true conservative if he saw one.
.The CrookedTrumpFamily only preach to one group of lunatics & uneducated people! America doesn’t care about this CrookedFamily opinions! Do you?
Republicans pounce . . . On censorship!!!
Fuck off little man
Yes, far right people, boycott Facebook and all other social media. That's exactly what we need 🤫
They should ban him as well
He and his GOP want to own that nutbag lot of violence-inciting racist radicals, by all means
Yes it is!
It is not free speech but spreading hate and lies ! 😡
HEY- MANY OF US INDEPENDENTS HAVE EXPERIENCED SAME THING. Facebook critical of ANYTHING negative being stated. Tit for tat, Junior.
Who even listens you ?
If banning anti-semites, hate speech spewing demagogues, and raging conspiracy theorists and fake news creators, is considered banning “conservatives”, then how deplorable, and sickeningly corrupt have conservatives become?
Why doesnt trump jr. create a site for those on the far right and conservatives who wish to partake in their garbage...I'm sure they'll have lots of members.
I’d like him to be silenced! Trump’s peanut gallery 🙄
Conservatives! sure DonaldJTrumpJr By your definition other Republicans must be free wheeling liberals
He isn’t worth reporting on. He is as deranged as DerangedDonald
I know a number of people that are not a bit surprised.
Good. The world is better off without hearing their hateful, bitter, bigoted rhetoric.
Well they are
Those ain’t conservatives honey. They’re racists and hate mongers. Or are they now one in the same?
Trump jr doesn’t know what a conservative is.
Bezos blog pretends there isn't any censorship happening to conservative.
So in other words; Jr. is promoting hatred as well.
Trump Junior is a white suprematist after all just like his father
Hate only breeds hate.
LOL...all that’s on there are right wing cranks and Russian propaganda.
Please stop covering stupid things this guy says.
PJW is far right?
How dare they take away our racist, misogynistic base!
There is a difference between conservatives and hate mongers. Do some research might be an eye opener.
You mean CONservative
Who did Facebook ban from the left or far left
Omg stupid runs in the family wtf is going on with this bull💩
The list I saw were hate mongers...if that's who your defending soldier on...spawn of draft dodger
Crybaby🍼
Big deal.
In case you haven’t noticed, nobody cares what that clown has to say. You folks are better than to quote him.
Do conservatives want to be lumped in with these people?
Bravo el dueño lo NESECITA por taponar muchas Realidades
DotardJr
It's not an accusation, It's a fact... I know it personally. Happened to me!
So... The way the headline reads, Trump Jr. may be right. Facebook band “far-right users”, “right” is usually associated with conservatism, So, in essence, Facebook did silence conservatives. 🤷🏾♂️
Is anyone really surprised that Chump Jr cannot distinguish any difference between the likes of Alex Jones and the GOP? What an IDIOT.
It’s who and how easy it’s to report someone unfairly.
Jr now on record as thinking of Alex Jones and Milo Yiannopolous as 'conservatives'.
About time. I could paste the same exact post from a democratic, liberal site and get FB jail for 30 days. Twitter is just as bad.
DJTjr is a joke🤣
Total far-left extremists banned: zero.
Facebook did not silence any conservatives. Alex Jones is in no way, shape, or form a conservative. He is a tool. He is a panderer of conspiracy theories for low information sheepie nut jobs on the Z political axis.
The most detested, digusting, racist 'first' family in American history Now come at me something something Obama and prove my point
let’s yell “ FIRE FIRE “ in a crowded movie theater ... just cause we can ... TheTrumpCrimeFamily thinks there are no rules at all
Trumptard
But junior is ok with fake russian sites on facebook endorsing trump, spreading lies and hate. D-bag
Who cares what this idiot says?!? Jr is such a baffoon on the world stage with ZERO respect among any educated people.
No soul there. His dad ate that long ago. He broke free once several years ago tried to be a man. Got drunk in NOLA, arrested and crawled back to daddy. What a huge mistake.
Jr is defending Alex Jones, white nationalist, conspiracy theory, racist Alex Jones? Is there no end to Trump moronic behavior?
They can hop on 4 Chan
Indeed it is silencing dangerous people, as it should. Shut up mini fascist, nobody cares about your whining.
Shut up, Jr. 🔇
Umm…. They are trying to ban ALL purveyors of hate speech. Unless you think Farrakhan is conservative. SMH ostrichrepublicans lyingGOP
not bright
No... it’s called silencing liars and if Twitter had balls they would the same with us Dad.... we would all be better off....
So true
KlasicalLiberal Stop with the far right garbage.
Isnt there and endangered species you can have tied to a tree in Africa so you can show what a man you are by killing it?
I wish they would ban junior so he can go bawwww on insta and then they ban him too.
So, Conservatives are willing to embrace these “wackos”? This always surprises me because the conservative tradition is based on gathering statistics, data, and facts before reaching a conclusion. The scientific method is basically a conservative method.
The silencing of the lambs 🐏
Is he upset that they banned Farrakhan as well?
No one cares about Fredo. Leave this gossip to the Free Bacon or the Examiner.
I bet that nut job does
Knowingly spreading volumes of lies & serious insults is not acceptable.
The Fakebook NAZIs banned me, and I'm a moderate.
Yeah. Let the Nazi's speak before they go out an murder.
Conversation don’t lie and make up stuff. At least they did not use to
This is one of the classic Right wing talking points Jr is repeating.
It’s called the feee market, don’t like their product don’t use it.
well it’s mainly bc far right people are usually more violent and aggressive than far left people
I can remember (last week) when some trump supporters went bat sh*t crazy when I tweeted the Republican Party has become tolerant to the white nationalist movement. Thank you, trump jr., for the confirmation.
Parmaviolet43 It’s true!
Because they did.
Trump Jr needs a reality check.
Imbecility is genetically passed down on that family
Still have your left and right confused
Lol, yeah far right. That’s it that’s the ticket. If you disagree with me you are a far right winger. Meanwhile Antifa violent attacks people and is deemed legit by fake news and Facebook.
These conservatives that they banned have higher ratings then the liberal mainstream media. That's why they're banned! Libs cant hear the truth.
kkkooks be kooks
He’s accurate. Even if you share, post thoughts regarding the also become a Target! Chinese style communist censorship is here. Citizens today..the press tomorrow!
Hey, pipe down junior.
Meanwhile his brother in law dismisses Russia interference and says Facebook allowed Russia to run a couple Facebook ads.
It bans anyone who isn’t liberal period. WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN?
Twitter says it bans hate mongers. Are these the ones Jr qualifies as Conservatives?
This must be this weeks installment for The Orange Mistake Jr's 'I'm not too smart' series...
Guess what DonaldJTrumpJr no one cares about your Facebook followers.
He'd be right. Most of the social media platforms are run by like minded people.
Jack brought lawyers to the Oval Office Well, we weren't compelled to obey, just pretend to care, size up President Trump, and resume our treachery against those who expose the scams and crimes of Islam and the communist democrat party DonaldJTrumpJr They're scared
This clown just like his dad is a LIAR, ADULTERER, AND HAVE COMMITTED TREASON AGAINST THIS COUNTRY! And just like his dad, he think everyone is as stupid as their supporters. AMERICA OPEN YOUR EYES! THEY LIED TO KEEP YOU FROM KNOWING THE TRUTH ABOUT RUSSIA! VOTETHEMOUT!
Those are the radicals not conservatives.
Why is Jr always so antagonistic? Doesn't he know just how UNIMPORTANT he is!!
Don Jr is right Social media was invented by Michael McKibbon and stolen by silicon valley scammers Now they align with the communist party and Islamic saboteurs and try to stop the snitches from exposing their criminal racketeering Twitter Jack lied in the Oval Office
Openly racist. Openly.
Junior should just shut up and keep on the free ride. What a dolt.
Hello Apple, meet tree!
I liked Donny better when he played a stooge on his father’s TV show.
when all you have to do is state facts that someone on the left on facebook dont like and you can be blocked or banned yes its bad. it can even be word for word from a news report.
Silence this brat, too.
Washington Post is stupid This is what happens when you allow socialism in the country They obtain money, hook or by crook, publish propaganda, find ways to shut down their opponents with censorship and violence Washington Post wants everyone to be subjected to this problem
hey Junior......
They didn't ban YOU!
Nothing 'conservative' about the right wing bomb throwers! They are subversives and in another time in history, they would be locked up!
You say conservatives, I say extremists. 🎶Let’s call the whole thing off 🎶
And in so doing managed to badly mispronounce 'proponents of white terrorism.'
All conservatives to you are automatically 'far right,' but on the left you describe them as 'progressives' and never by other more descriptive political terms which would fit their radical politics more precisely in keeping with yours!
Those people were not conservatives. Thy spewed hate and division. None of my conservative friends are like that.
Right Junior, stick up to those who spread lies and hate
Good for Facebook trump jr is a disgrace for standing up for racists
Who cares what little Connie thinks.
Hate speech is not free speech. And Don Jr. is an idiot.
When you think extremists are just normal people.
Look stupid! His x wife must be relieved being away from him. The face lift girlfriend is in the first cat face with her procedure’s. She meows & he jumps for joy.
Can Facebook silence DonaldJTrumpJr next please
It might be hard for DonaldJTrumpJr aka Jr.'s little brain to comprehend, but not all conservatives are racists, bigoted, conspiracy theorist.
Hey Jr, shove it
In Trumpworld, racists deserve a platform.
Why does anyone take that guy serious? He is a joke.
Who cares?
I wish they'd remove EVERYONE who publishes lies.
F off junior creepy
It’s a private business and can do what it wants. His criticism goes against GOP creed of no regulation.
They’re not silencing conservatives their silencing hate.If conservative talk is all about hating or disliking other ethnicities or orientations then that’s wrong,that’s hatred. You can’t do that or spread that. Sorry. And you cant exploit the 1st amendment to justify it anymore.
Did he mean the Nazis?
Junior is so smart and so rich - why doesn't he start his own social media site?
Please shut up Junior.
Hey, Jr., don't be a terrorist and FB won't ban you.
What exactly is a 'conservative'. Alex Jones and John McCain are not from the same species.
Don’t violate the terms and agreements and you’ll be peachy keen, jellybean.
And Trump and Fox News don't silence liberals?
The people like Donny jr, his Dad and G_Pa. The ones who want to Conserve the whiteness of America. Most Americans want to conserve the IDEA of the USA, not a particular Northern European version.
Ooops, you forgot to ban Junior.
Did Mueller mention any discontent with Barr's disclosure summary letter, Barr 'No' For us dummies: what does the word 'transparent' mean in the Trump administration=you know were deceitful liars and were clear / transparent about it? 'we the people' deserve integrity in office.
Hey Jr., since you think you are such a ‘genius’, feel free to develop your own Hatebook platform! 🤦♀️
Who tf cares what that trust fund twit has to say!
Who cares?
“accuses” — everyone knows it happened.
I think we should ban Trump from Twitter!!!!
Truth. They have only silenced one left extremist, Farrakhan.
He takes after his dad, always looking for a way to start a fight. He doesn't know what he is saying just like the ole man.
and
The guy that denies Sandy Hook is not a conservative, he’s a nut job!
realDonaldTrump “silencing fascists”. They’re. Fixed.
facebookCENSURESHIPisREAL Brave New World - ha ha ha Baaaa ha ha
Hate breeds hate and it generates psychological violence which in turn breeds physical violence. Hate is no good and has nothing to do with free speech. Mysogyneous, homophobic, schizophobic, islamophobic etc discourses do nothing to make this world better.
I would expect a fellow nazi to react that way
So now conservatives and far right are pushing the same agenda, hey conservatives trump has lumped u in with hate groups
Facebook was fine when it was running ads to help the habitual liar father though...hypocrit!
Anti-right biased censorship at Facebook bad.
What a joke he and Kim are.
Maybe Donny Jr. needs a job.
All extreme right should be banned, so should the extreme left.
Well they’re a private company who addressed issues to satisfy advertisers, which affect profit. Isn’t that the capitalism you worship? Go shout into a paper bag.
They have been removing conservative posts, replacing them with the following lie, 'This content isn't available right now. When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.'
Good point DonaldJTrumpJr ! They'll ban conservatives, but allow radical leftist ANTIFA thugs around the country who violently attack, disrupt, and harm others and businesses to flourish on facebook . Figures...
He is right....because this has been the plan all along....to dominate conservatives....by suppressing their voice....cultural dominance....what is the CRITERIA upon which Facebook determines one to be a dangerous person...without CLARITY...IT WOULD SEEM LIKE CONSERVATIVE CENSOR!
Using the term far-right to demonize opinions you dislike is cheap. Especially from a far-left propaganda rag.
This guy will be around for the next 40-50 years...God help up.
Define far right .
I’m not an anti-Semite like those far right wing loons and Farrakhan who were banned. So honestly I am not concerned about this private company banning me. If I would latch on to your followers and become a racist and anti-Semite I guess I’d be concerned? You concerned bruh?
No, they're just banning the whackjob conspiracy theory carnival barkers. Oh, I see what he means
Well, they blocked this left winger a month ago for explaining what bigotry means.
Not an accusation; it's a fact.
Stop giving Facebook the power! Take your money and form a competing platform! Competition is good!
Facebook is a private company, not state-owned like in a Communist country. They can protect their platform according to their business plan and customer agreements.
I’d point out to DonaldJTrumpJr that it’s surely debatable whether those who’ve been banned from FB are “conservative.” Really, they’re vile, bullying, hate-mongering liars & extremists. And they’re assholes; although if being an asshole merits a FB ban, the Dons should go, too.
The founder of Facebook even admits to Facebook hackers it’s all part of conspiracy However Democrats will stop at nothing or do anything it takes ex: (Benghazi) to get a vote... MAGA✌️🇺🇸✌️
FB also banned some far left peeps.
Emphasize on the 'con' part of the word 'conservative'!
Farrakhan is not of the right.
What’s on Don, Jr face?
DonaldJTrumpJr doesn't have two brain cells to rub together. He definitely got that whiney gene from daddy though.
Silencing hate and lies!
I hate the association of 'conservative' and 'far-right' because of this administration, Thing 1 and Thing Jr.
Conservatives should be far more troubled that nutjobs who incite harassment of grieving parents, white supremacists, and Nazis identify with their party. You'd think MOST people would want to distance themselves from that kind of thing.
Facebook isn’t silencing anybody. Facebook is exercising its freedom of speech. It’s actually very pro first amendment. This is exactly what conservatives wanted! Unlimited power to corporations.
Shut up Junior 🤥🤥
And by 'conservatives' he means racists.
Not the sharpest pencil in the box
He would...🤨
Twitter became the home of angry, unstable, deranged, delusional, anonymous leftists who have no interest in pretending to be moderate about anything. - Rush krassenstein EdKrassen eugenegu
putinists are not conservatives BAN THEM ALL
