RE: Media Matters Document Mapping Out Censorship Wars on Social Media

I've been looking into the documented Facebook influencers. Open MIC is also a Tides/Soros funded entity. They seem to be contradicting their 2009 mandate to protect freedom of speech and counteract censorship. That's a clue...the CEO, Michael Connor, doesn't have integrity, his objectives are fluid. He's being influenced. Same goes for Zuckerberg. He announced that he would protect freedom of speech and Alex Jones' account. I haven't followed leads on the NYC fund manager. Found and forgot his name. What I see with both these FB influencers is that they manage funds for small investor groups, who may not agree with the use of their wealth to sink the FB stock they are investing in. This might fall under "shareholder oppression". Anyway, have a look...

If you can whip this into a post, please do. Can't seem to investigate AND report at the same time on this one. Time is of the essence and I just can't do both. If you can report, I'll keep digging into that NYC fund manager. If you do post, tag me so I can resteem.

Facebook shareholders seek more accountability as annual meeting set
Printed in the April 17, 2018 edition on page B4 | Published on April 16, 2018 | Last Modified on April 16, 2018 at 12:05 pm
Facebook shareholders will convene May 31 in Menlo Park for their annual meeting, where they will vote on an array of proposals that aim to make the social media platform more accountable to themselves.
...
The content governance report committee proposal came from the New York State Common Retirement Fund, one of the largest pension funds in the United States, which holds 6.7 million shares of Facebook. Open Media and Information Companies Initiative, a nonprofit that works on socially responsible investing and shareholder engagement and that helped draft the proposal, told this news organization last month it did so because Facebook was “in chaos” reeling from the Cambridge Analytica fallout.

Check this out Meagain, Soros and Media Matters and 3 others started a freedom from Facebook movement around April the week before the censorship purges on social media, the movement went silent, couldn't find a lick of news, I have a post on it with theories, I'm got one post in the works and I will take your material and see what I can do, time wise it's real hard to research and write, I'm trying to hold myself to atleast 3-4 posts a week, but it's not easy with work and life! Thanks for your comment and giving my post a look, I added you to my follow list and will let you know about the post later in the week.
Take Care!

Freedom from Facebook movement? I'll research it and give you links for what I find. Right now, I suspect that Zuckerberg's stance to preserve INFOWARS accounts and freedom of speech made him a target. Even the Cambridge Analytica scandal may have been an attempt to extort Zuckerberg's compliance with the broader censorship agenda.
