We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.
-
Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

That sounds great if you ignore the role Meta has already undertaken. Two great examples are on their own website, where they said allowing manipulated “ video that was edited to make it appear as though U.S. President Joe Biden is inappropriately touching his adult granddaughter’s chest” to stay up and be considered fine, while originally choosing to silence all coverage of October 7th under rules enacted after the event only reversing course after questions were asked about all the ad money spent by both sides
This looks like a very loop-hole way of those actors getting around Meta's ruleset. When you create a set of rules, you've got to apply them evenhandedly, or what is the point? If Meta were to take it down, in violation of their own rules - it would be biased.
Meta isn't perfect. I'm sure they've got their own agendas to push too. That's why I suggest everyone get off of social media altogether.
