I disagree. The persons named in the article are renown in the alternate media which is the only place you will find the truth in the U.S. Moreover, I think this is only the beginning of total censorship which is now clearly on its way.
 Quoting: RockHall


They are people trying to sell you BS to make you feel special. Gage makes over 80,000 a year from 'not for profit' donations by lieing about projects that never happen. As i said before Facebook is not based on freedom of speech and never has been so this is a non story.
 Quoting: SheldonCooper


Richard Gage, as founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, is truly a great American who is fighting an endless battle for truth in a country where there is so little truth to find. He will never get any awards from the U.S. government, but there are those who will... For example:

Mark Zuckerberg Awarded CIA Surveillance Medal

[link to counterpsyops.com]

and

[link to www.google.com (secure)]

It appears you are off by quite a margin.
 Quoting: RockHall


Gage is one of the biggest scam artists around. 80,000 straight into his back pocket, 80,000 in expenses and anything left over goes into his little projects that you idiots promote, yet you never question when they dont happen.
 Quoting: SheldonCooper


Umm, he's an architect, $80k per year is not very much money for an architect.

He'd be better off not being the face of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth. He's make more money.

Richard Gage believes in what he is doing.
Nuff said on that.

As for fb, this isn't the first time they have deleted those that have an opinions page.

fb wants to make sure all you post is your drunken party pics from the bar last night.

"Today, Facebook deactivated the Facebook accounts of some of the leading American political critics.

For example, former diplomat and U.C. Berkeley Professor Emeritus Peter Dale Scott told us that his Facebook account was suddenly deactivated today without any justification.

So did Richard Gage, founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth.

And Michael Rivero, owner of the popular website What Really Happened."

It's easy to defeat speech-censorship online - simply get creative; use allegory, and invent new words/terms/imagery to replace the verboten ones. This confuses/exposes the censor, intrigues the hipsters, and makes it a challenge of wits.

Of course it's a big deal. The entire point of the internet is flow of information. It has revolutionary capabilities equivalent to the invention of the printing press. Censorship in any media is the tactic of the desperate, as they fear knowledge being disseminated.

Facebook is nothing but an echo chamber of sheep, all bleating to the same tune. Anything that causes disharmony, must be censored, for their own good!

It's 1984 or a brave new world or fahrenheit 451. Pick one, or combine the worst elements of them all.

Natural News had its account suspended for posting something pro-Second Amendment.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30267672


^ This ^

FB = DNC
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31013220



"(NaturalNews) The reports are absolutely true. Facebook suspended the Natural News account earlier today after we posted an historical quote from Mohandas Gandhi. The quote reads:

"Among the many misdeeds of British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest." - Mohandas Gandhi, an Autobiography, page 446.

This historical quote was apparently too much for Facebook's censors to bear. They suspended our account and gave us a "final warning" that one more violation of their so-called "community guidelines" would result in our account being permanently deactivated."

Whenever I write anything, I'm speaking always to the individual. I'm happy so long as one person reads what I have to say. What I get is influence. I may be right, or wrong, but the ability to say it without being forced to register is an increasingly uncommon/valuable facility.

I always assume censorship is in place - wherever I post, besides, the people worth reaching will understand this and read between the lines anyway.

It has often been the random, off-hand comment that has given me the most insight. I try to do the same for other individuals.

Bummer. I've deleted my facebook account all together awhile back.

The idea is to avoid participation with the vampire squid whenever possible.

That's why I avoid mainstream media. Pay with cash(to avoid funding banks through credit card fees), shop at local mom and pop shops, no prescription drugs whenever possible, no facebook, spread good will, avoid satanic music, movies, etc etc.

Don't support the criminals!
