Project Veritas Exposes Rampant Anti-Conservative Bias of Facebook’s Content Moderators: ‘I Am Going to Delete Them for Terrorism’

A shocking new undercover video from Project Veritas exposes the rampant anti-conservative bias of Facebook’s content moderators, the employees who are responsible for deciding what posts are censored.

Zach McElroy, a former Facebook employee who worked as a content moderator in Tampa, Florida, told Project Veritas that he’s willing to testify before Congress about Facebook’s bias against Trump supporters and conservative causes.

“We are essentially in charge of what gets said and what gets stifled,” he explained of the “content moderator” position, noting that 75 to 80 percent of posts selected for moderator review by Facebook’s algorithm are from “Republican pages,” including politicians and journalists.

In the undercover footage obtained by Project Veritas, one content moderator said she deletes every Republican post that appears in her queue.

“Yes! I don’t give no f–ks. I’ll delete it,” she confirmed, revealing that she allows anti-Trump content in violation of Facebook’s policies to remain on the site.

I'm really surprised I haven't been suspended lately or had my account pulled because I've been posting some seriously rude shit about BLM these past couple weeks. Some of it's so offensive that even I would've suspended me.

  2. You must know that the left are never going to play fair. They never can because, given a democratic level playing field, they will always lose. Socialism is a terrible idea that can never work. Occasionally the left will convince enough fools to vote a socialist party into power, but the vast majority realise the mistake that they have made fairly quickly and vote them out at the first opportunity. That is why they have to use lies, violence and censorship to try to get themselves into positions of power.

  3. "I'm really surprised I haven't been suspended lately" Yeh, I think I alluded to that in a post to one your recent "The shit I post..."

    As to this article, I think we all knew that FB has always been screwing with conservatives, especially during the Obuttface years. Nice to have it confirmed by one of the moderators. I think Trump will take up regulating social sites after the election. In the meantime, the FCC should be pursuing enforcement actions against them. Yeh, I know, wishful drinking.

  6. “Yes! I don’t give no f–ks. I’ll delete it,”

    Why am I hearing that in a particular accent? Is it the quaint and folksy syntax? Danged if I know. It is a puzzlement wrapped in a mystery. Hmmmm.
