We are living in difficult times for freedom of speech, especially on some social networks, such as Facebook.
In the last few hours, the company headed by Marc Zuckerberg has censored five posts from my Facebook profile without even telling me what they are or why they were removed, and without giving me the opportunity to appeal the decision. Facebook has been targeting this blog for some time now, as it has other conservative websites.
Just this week, Zuckerberg acknowledged pressure from the Biden administration to censor Facebook, but in acknowledging this, he overlooked one thing: he gave in to that pressure and militantly exercised that censorship, especially against Catholic and conservative users and pages on his network.
Facebook censorship is of two types: the first is arbitrarily deleting your posts, sometimes for absurd reasons (a few months ago I already put here some examples of images censored by Facebook because it considered them "violent", even though they weren't). The second type of censorship is reducing the dissemination of your posts, so that they are no longer seen even by the followers of your Facebook pages. Today, as a result of this, the visits that come from Facebook to this blog are much less than those that come from Twitter, a network with many fewer users but with much more freedom when it comes to publishing.
I don't know how long it will take Facebook to close my profile and pages, but I assume that this will happen. Therefore, for those of you who follow this blog from that social network, I am indicating some alternatives to be able to continue reading what I publish:
Many thanks to all of you who follow this blog on social media and especially to those who share what I publish on them. For my part, I will continue to do everything possible to ensure that the content of this blog reaches you, even if some try to make it increasingly difficult for me.
