Facebook And YouTube Erase All Mentions Of Anti-Trump Whistleblower’s Name

Federalist:

Not only are Facebook and YouTube’s standards a form of censorship, they are an example of partisanship on the largest social media platforms in the world. NOVEMBER 10, 2019 By Chrissy Clark

Facebook and YouTube are removing all content from their platforms that mentions the anti-Trump whistleblower’s name, whom news outlets including RealClearInvestigations have publicly identified as CIA analyst Eric Ciaramella. No law bans media outlets or any person but the intelligence community inspector general from making the whistleblower’s name public.

A Facebook spokesperson said the platform will remove “any and all mention of the potential whistleblower’s name.

Any mention of the potential whistleblower’s name violates our coordinating harm policy, which prohibits content ‘outing of witness, informant, or activist.’ We are removing any and all mentions of the potential whistleblower’s name and will revisit this decision should their name be widely published in the media or used by public figures in debate.

  1. IMHO…

    I predict after PRESIDENT Trump wins in 2020 and the House and Senate are firmly in Republican hands again, he is going to break up these bastards once and for all. And then he puts the hard squeeze on Antifa(gs).

  2. How stupid. They are guaranteeing that Ciaramella
    gets the “Streisand Effect” treatment where trying
    to hide and censor a piece of information has the unintended consequence of attracting more attention.
    But we knew they are stupid so it was unavoidable
    that they confirm it.

  3. It is true, even on your personal FB page. Post any article naming him in the title or any article calling FB out for removing posts with his name and the post disappears. They don’t tell you they removed it, they don’t even tell you that you can’t do it(they are warning pages though), it’s just poof gone.

    I keep doing it just because I will post what I want. I have though discovered they can’t pick it up if you post a meme and then put articles in comments. Pissed me off, so I’ve been going to liberal pages that allow you to post without joining under different made up FB names and posting the articles. They block me and got one of my made up FB banned, but with the help of some like minded folks we got one liberal page shut down.

    It’s kind of immature, but what the hell.

  5. They’re going to have to back-pedal on this. Too many outlets have published his name and it’s going to be even more well know when the ‘impeachment’ dumpster fire fizzles on.

    And Epstein didn’t kill himself.

  6. They’re ok with posting the name of the woman who was falsely accused and fired by CBS for allegedly being the ABC whistleblower on the Epstein story being killed though, right?

    Others were also pointing out that Eric Ciaramella was in that infamous photo of Obama WH staffers folding their arms and scowling on Trump’s first day in office.

  7. Hey, if we’re going to pretend that the homo stuff is normal, why not let the whistleblower be anon, too. Let’s just let the lunactic left set all policy for us.
