11. Facebook person would not answer whether FB would remove doctored video of Trump

That question, near the end , was the most telling about Facebook policy

Cooper registered shock when she would not answer that question.

So a doctored video of Speaker of House manipulated to make her appear drunk they will keep up for distribution

But a doctored video of President Trump Face Book refuses to answer whether they would keep up or take down.


My take is that she is refusing to answer because Facebook would take down such a video of Trump

I think Facebook is a political actor on the side of "strongman" or fascist regimes.

They are distributing News (although she initially tried to deny being a news organization) and as a news organization they are knowingly and selectively distributing fake news or propaganda aimed at ending democracy.
