Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg says that posts and pages attempting to organize protests against stay-at-home orders will be banned as “misinformation.”
The Facebook CEO confirmed that the posts would be banned to ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on a segment of Good Morning America.
Stephanopoulos asked Zuckerberg how the company deals “with the fact that Facebook is now being used to organize a lot of these protests to defy social distancing guidelines in states. If somebody trying to organize something like that, does that qualify as harmful misinformation?”
“We do classify that as harmful misinformation and we take that down,” confirmed Zuckerberg, while at the same time saying that it’s important “that people can debate policies.”
A Facebook spokesman confirmed to CNN that planned protests in California, New Jersey, and Nebraska were having their pages removed from Facebook at the request of state authorities.
Anti-quarantine protests being organized through Facebook in California, New Jersey, and Nebraska, are being removed from the platform on the instruction of governments in those three states because it violates stay-at-home orders, Facebook spokesperson @andymstone tells @donie.

This comes after President Trump gave his support to protesters in several states who are demonstrating against their governors’ stay-at-home orders, including a 3,000-strong protest in Lansing, Michigan. Michigan protesters have used Facebook to organize.
On Twitter, the President called on protesters to “liberate” the states of Michigan, Minnesota, and Virginia, also calling on Virginian citizens to “save your great 2nd amendment. It is under siege!”
At Friday’s White House coronavirus press conference, Trump lent more support to the protesters.
“These are people expressing their views,” said the president. “They seem to be very responsible people to me, but they’ve been treated a little bit rough.”
Protests and demonstrations, like other forms of lawful speech, are constitutionally protected. The First Amendment of the United States, in addition to protecting freedom of expression and religion, also specifically protects “the right of the people peaceably to assemble.”

Sounds like one big communist circle jerk to me
Oh yeah, nail on head. This whole goddamm thing was nothing more than a billionaires big toe treading where no billionaires big toe has treaded before.
These scum bags are going to regret the day their daddies had that gleam in their eye.
Never has there been so much bullshit slung in our faces.
Fkrberg, the Joo con man,will be a prize catch, thats for sure.
The useless dopey little misinformation maggot who’s only friends are his Vaseline jar and his underground kiddie farm.
Hear! Hear! Mark 😉 Whoever bags that scrawny little kike POS will certainly be hero for at least a day! I would love to see REAL award ceremonies for ALL the REAL heroes when the days of reckoning are over!
Everything we are witnessing is a communist takeover of this U.S. and the world by the Jewish radical cult of chabad-lubavitch. This is a continuation of their 1917 takeover of Russia and their plans from over 100 years ago. Read the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion. Read their Tanya. Read it all while you still can. They will shut down the Internet for us at the right time and all knowledge you need to know now, will be gone! The very first things the city closed in this virus hoax was the Library. Ever since JFK was murdered by these communists the coup d’etat happened which started the infestation of these vipers in our government from Federal down to local including the Sheriffs. began in earnest, from the Federal level all the way down to the local Sheriff’s Dept. That day was the start of schools eliminating teaching of the dangers of communists and their Jewish leaders. Students never heard the word communist or Jew on the television from that day forward. That is why we mostly have a nation of ignorant people that can’t recognize all the signs of a communist takeover! They will be enslaved and imprisoned and unable to fight as they will starve to death just as the 40 million Russians and 70 million Chinese and 2 million in Vietnam and other nations as well. Hurry. Read everything you can find about what communists do when they take over a nation. Read about everything connected to the Jewish communists in history and their hatred for Christians.

Phyllis, as I understand it, we have not been free for centuries. With taxes, unlawful laws, infringements on our rights. There was that vision in 1775, where freedom and liberty brought many unnamed brave to risk everything, but they were betrayed by the founding fathers who stayed connected with the king of England and accepted from him gifts of large land-masses and great wealth. They deserted us. William Penn got Pennsylvania. Then there’s Mount Vernon and Monticello for Washington and Jefferson. Wish I could name more. Also, many readers here are up The Protocols. You say, “…we mostly have a nation of ignorant people.” I think we have a nation of great intelligence and resourcefulness with a majority that is currently working to set things right, to stand against tyranny and assure The Bill of Rights is honored as the Supreme Law of the Land. I feel a bit funny saying all this because I learned it from Henry and he says it so much better than I.
