The Good, The Bad, The....Blocked?

Did you know that Social Media companies don't need to listen to their own community standards of non-discrimination? This happens every day on Social Media giants. You may be wondering...how? Social Media can dictate who they want on their platform and who they don't want on their platform. However, they don't allow their customers to ask for a review of the information of they've been removed for breaking community standards. 

How does that relate to discrimination? Christian Conservatives have been dropping off of places like Facebook like flies. It almost seems targeted. Why would Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram block people who have differing beliefs? It's almost as if they believe we are a threat to them. 

Take the case of Parler, the social media app. This app that is like Twitter was used by mainly conservatives to express free speech. Anybody is technically allowed there, but it was a haven for those who wanted to express what they wanted. Naturally, places like Google, Amazon, and Apple did not like that. So, they decided to remove Parler indefinitely. 

Then we have the case of our President, Mr. Donald Trump. He was banned from both Facebook and Twitter from making his comments. While I am not a fan of Donald Trump, I am not a fan of censorship either. The same censorship that China is condemned for is being praised in the United States of America. 

It seems that we are in the mysterious case of: The Good, The Bad, and The Blocked.
