Mark Zuckerberg has inserted himself into the political discourse.
He famously interviewed Barack Obama in 2011.
And Zuckerberg could have something in store for 2024 that will leave you in stunned silence.
Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg built a social media platform that changed human relations.
It also became a tool of the powerful.
That’s why Zuckerberg has hobnobbed with world leaders.
Political tool
In 2015, then-German Chancellor Angela Merkel got caught on a hot mic urging Zuckerberg to do something about online rhetoric against the European migrant crisis.
Zuckerberg assured her that Facebook was working on it.
After the election of Donald Trump and the Brexit vote in 2016, the international Left decided that something must be done to stop such populist events from happening again.
Soon after, online censorship began ramping up.
Zuckerberg also spent over $400 million to help “fortify” the 2020 election.
But that was not the only time that Facebook worked to influence an election result.
The Media Research Center compiled a list of 39 times that Facebook censored or suppressed political speech.
The organization reported that “[j]ust over a week before the 2012 presidential election, Facebook suspended the account of Special Operations Speaks, a veteran-led PAC. The group had posted a meme reminding its followers that Navy SEALs were denied backup during the tragic terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.”
People on the Right were not the only targets.

MRC added that “Facebook’s anti-spam algorithm also flagged many different Facebook groups, including six groups created for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) supporters, in the Democratic Party primary race against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.”
It is widely known that the Democratic National Committee colluded to throw the 2016 primary to Hillary Clinton, and Facebook played along as well.
Censorship has accelerated since 2020.
Most notably, emails revealed through FOIA requests showed that Facebook censored true information about COVID at the behest of Dr. Anthony Fauci.
MRC also reported that “Meta already began limiting its distribution of political content in 2022 but has continued to lean into that in the lead-up to the 2024 election. In February, Meta announced that Instagram and Threads (a new social media platform owned by Meta) will no longer recommend political content by default, but users can opt in to having such content promoted to them.”
But voices deemed establishment-safe will likely slip through the filter.
With the 2024 election right around the corner, do not put anything past “woke” Big Tech CEOs.
