Five Fake Stories Social Media Didn’t Suppress or Censor

Social media’s attempts to suppress and censor the New York Post’s bombshell report about Hunter Biden, as well as other damning stories about the Biden family’s corruption, have conservatives crying foul, and rightfully so. Big Tech censorship has become a huge problem, and when social media is actively trying to decide what the public should know about, it raises many questions.

But perhaps the first question that must be asked is: what stories were not suppressed or censored by social media despite being complete bunk? If social media companies think they have an obligation to prevent the public from seeing a story because of questionable or unverified sources or for being misleading, then is there any evidence that this standard is being equally applied across the political spectrum?

We are in serious trouble when the mass media have gone from unbiased news sources to the propaganda arm of the Democrats. When did this happen and who is behind it?



We have already had a problem with the low information voters. There are those that make a decision to act spurred on by a headline or a tweet be they voting or showing up to a riot.



President Trump is the target and they hate him because he is standing in the way of their dominance over the People.



Another false narrative is Trump's response to the Pandemic as if a Democrat President could have done any better in the face of an unprecedented pandemic that was unfolding daily. Heck the WHO, the CDC and Dr Fauci have even flip flopped on their recommendations yet it is Trump that is blamed.



We could literally be heading toward a point in the near future like when the Roman empire burned and Nero fiddled but in our case the country will be sold out, our Rights squashed and the media will reassure us that all is golden.





It is a dangerous time for any country when journalism becomes propaganda for one party. It happened in Nazi Germany.

Yep. An "Outsider" was elected to try and break-up the entrenched Gov. (deep State), and the sheeple just won't have it.

They've believed every "fake news" anti-Trump & Pro Dem/Establishment story that has come out without question.

They'll get the Government they deserve.

That's true. And the do DEFINITELY deserve the thieving, oppressive, authoritarian government they (the Harris voters) are voting for. Unfortunately the rest of us will have to suffer as well.

Yep and Trump has been doing just that. He has exposed the hypocrisy and shown us just how deep the ties are with the Democrats and the mass media. They truly hate him for doing this.


In 2016 the media was still trying to hide it, they were still pretending to be impartial, unbiased but now they flaunt it right before our eyes and the sheeple believe everything they are told.



They will get the Government they deserve, Trump will still be blamed for years to come but as goes America so goes the world and it is not going to be pretty for those that Love America.



Socialism, our elected beholding to foreign powers such as China, the Green New Deal, pandering to the extreme Left and the likes of BLM and antifa, the lies on lies that the media will promote and spin in a positive way to the masses.

The future with Trump may be a rough road but with Dems in charge that road could take us all off a cliff.

Is there such a thing as an independent news source that has nothing to gain or lose by reporting a story based on facts, rather than lies and idle speculation, including unidentified sources?

But we as American's don't deserve it. Why should we suffer? We have a voice. When did law and order take a back seat to mindless violence?

And this is OUR country. Not theirs. They have proved NOT worthy to live in the U.S., by disrespecting everything we stand for. When did hate and threats over-ride our America?? When push comes to shove, we will push harder.

A bunch just got censored.

No one cares about people who tell lies. It's the truth that's threatening, so they got banned/blocked for reporting it.
