Facebook has removed an ad posted on the offical facebook pages of both Trump and Pence using Nazi imagery and compressions. Trump and Pence themselves likely had no idea these ad were being posted.
Facebook on Thursday announced that it removed ads from President Donald Trump’s campaign that contained a symbol associated with Nazis.
“We removed these posts and ads for violating our policy against organized hate,” a Facebook spokesman said in a statement. “Our policy prohibits using a banned hate group’s symbol to identify political prisoners without the context that condemns or discusses the symbol.”
The ads contained red downward-pointing triangles, which the Nazis used to mark political prisoners. The symbol was used in ads by Trump, Vice President Mike Pence and the Trump campaign.
How ridiculous. That only highlights the bias of organized internet monopolies like facebook. I, and likely most everyone else, would never have made such an association.
The lefts control of all media is becoming dangerous.
For all we know, the trump team went to Spreadshirt and created that image. A Google Image Search shows the only hit for this is the Trump War Room tweet. If it was “widely used” by Antifa, you’d find many examples.
And in typical Trumpian fashion, it was posted, and then when enough attention was garnered, the symbols were deleted and replaced with other symbols.
Not the ads the red triangle was originally embedded in- all those ads are still there- they simply have new associated images.
