Merkel And With Zuckerberg Agreeing To Curtail Anti-Immigrant Posts On Facebook

[Wilikon]

German Chancellor Angela Merkel was overheard confronting Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg over incendiary posts on the social network, Bloomberg reported on Sunday, amid complaints from her government about anti-immigrant posts in the midst of Europe’s refugee crisis.

On the sidelines of a United Nations luncheon on Saturday, Merkel was caught on a hot mic pressing Zuckerberg about social media posts about the wave of Syrian refugees entering Germany, the publication reported.

The Facebook CEO was overheard responding that “we need to do some work” on curtailing anti-immigrant posts about the refugee crisis. “Are you working on this?” Merkel asked in English, to which Zuckerberg replied in the affirmative before the transmission was disrupted.

Yeah, heard about this exchange between them and I totally feel for the German people as they're in a fixed position as their leader has sold them down the river. However, Americans are yet to see the endgame on what the immigration protocol is going to put on their plate after the rest of the south americans come aboard in the country as well as what comes from the middle east. You don't invite folks into a welfare baring country, for one, let alone in a time when the middle class is being wiped out once and for all. Well over half off these new immigrants are on welfare and medical services at this point and I work at an ER entry point so I see the extras coming in on a regular basis. The whole picture is bleak and expensive, immigrants and regulars alike. Overload is going on plus the shift in payment mechanisms change in a few days.

His deeds speak louder than his word. theymos = hero, zuckerberg = 0. It's important to realize that nothing force the 0 to do such things. the nsa&co in comparison to such racketeers are angels of peace.

Well, this is facebook censorship! Zuckerberg is certainly not serious went he said he was "working on this"? I know they have closed down facebook pages before from government pressure. This time is different, it's hundreds of pages from users of different European countries.

Hmm.. Every time bitcointalk.org was attacked I always thought it was for bitcoin market manipulation exclusively. But maybe it is now beyond bitcoin and it is also about cancelling free speech.

This was my initial thought.

Angela Merkel must forget about Facebook because the real action lies in the streets. You'll soon find that you expect out.What single handedly impose a million people on the Germans?

I predict the antisemitic posts will skyrocket on facebook, thanks to the new people. It is a crime in germany. Would she prosecute facebook then?

We shall see...

I dumped Facebook many years ago and deleted my profile. Earlier I used to waste hours at a time browsing the pics and posting in FB. That's no longer the case, and now I can indulge in some productive activity instead of wasting time in Facebook. Events such as this one just proves that my action was perfectly justified.

Next step: employ people to write happy posts about migrants and shoot photos of policemen playing with children from Syria... oh wait, it's already happening. Angela is learning from Putin.

The back of the censorship  ! Facebook is a so shitty thing, why do they want to make it crappier ? Oh yes, I know, because the left-winged Jews lobbies tell to Facebook to do this to achieve the destruction of Europe identity  !
