RIGHT-WINGERS ONLINE LOVE TO PICTURE THEMSELVES AS VICTIMS,
SAYING THAT TWITTER IS CENSORING THEM, YOUTUBE IS CENSORING THEM,
GOFUNDME AND CROWDSOURCING PLATFORM ARE CENSORING THEM BUT
ABOVE ALL, FACEBOOK IS CENSORING THEM AND WE HAVE RECENTLY HAD
DIAMOND AND SILK, TWO PRO-TRUMP WOMEN BEFORE CONGRESS TALKING
ABOUT HOW THEIR PAGES HAVE BEEN SHUT DOWN, WHICH OF COURSE THEY
HADN'T, THAT THE REACH HAD BEEN CUT WHICH OF COURSE THEY HADN'T.
WE HAVE ALL THE ACTUAL DATA ON THESE THINGS BUT THEY
HAVE BEEN SAYING IT AND THEY'VE BEEN SAYING IT FOR YEARS AND
UNFORTUNATELY, THEIR WHINING AS IT SO OFTEN DOES HAS WORKED.
SO THEY ARE NOT BIASED AGAINST CONSERVATIVES.
ALL OF THE DATA
SHOWS THAT, BUT THEY ARE GOING TO BRING ALL OF THESE
CONSERVATIVE INDIVIDUALS IN AND THEN WHAT DO
YOU THINK THE OUTCOME OF THAT WILL BE?
IT WILL BE BIAS, BUT NOT AGAINST CONSERVATIVES.
IF YOU ARE
ACTUALLY NEUTRAL OR AT LEAST SCREWING WITH EVERYONE
EQUALLY AND YOU BRING IN A BUNCH OF CONSERVATIVES, THE ONLY
OUTCOME IS MOVING AGAINST LIBERALS.
I OFTEN DEFEND THE SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS AND I
ALWAYS GIVE THE CAVEAT THAT LOOK, THESE GUYS ARE OUR
PARTNERS.
LET'S KEEP IT REAL.
WE ARE ON GOOGLE, YOUTUBE, AND
FACEBOOK, ETC.
I'M NOT GOING TO DEFEND FACEBOOK ON THIS.
THEY
HAVE A REALLY HARD JOB.
THEY GET ACCUSED OF HAVING A LIBERAL
BIAS, THEY BRING IN CONSERVATIVES TO HELP THEM
FIGURE OUT WHAT THE TRUTH IS AND THEY ARE LIKE, THAT'S MESSED UP,
WE CANNOT DO THAT.
FINE, WE CAN'T USE HUMANS, SO WE WILL
USE AN ALGORITHM.
THEY USE AN ALGORITHM AND THEN FAKE NEWS
HAPPENS AND THEY GET CRITICIZED FOR THAT.
THAT IS THE BACKGROUND AND AS
MUCH OF A DEFENSE AS I WILL GIVE THEM.
HAVING SAID THAT, YOU ARE
BUYING INTO THE OLDEST TRICK IN THE BOOK, AND YOU ARE ACTUALLY
VERY MUCH PRO-CONSERVATIVE.
I KNOW THAT MIGHT BLOW YOUR MIND
AND ZUCKERBERG SAYS THAT SILICON VALLEY IS AN EXTREMELY
LEFT-LEANING PLACE.
NO IT'S NOT.
LET'S BE CLEAR ABOUT THAT,
YOU HAVE TO SEPARATE THE TWO SIDES.
SOCIAL ISSUES AND
ECONOMIC ISSUES.
ON SOCIAL ISSUES, I AGREE.
SILICON VALLEY
IS LIBERAL.
THEY DO NOT HATE BLACK PEOPLE JUST BECAUSE THEY
ARE BLACK, THEY DON'T HATE GAY PEOPLE JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE
GAY, AND SO YES, THAT IS TRUE.
I KNOW THAT DRIVES
CONSERVATIVES CRAZY SO THEY MIGHT SAY NO, BLACKS AND
LATINOS, WE DO NOT HATE THEM, YOU ARE BEING UNFAIR.
LATINOS
SHOULDN'T COME INTO THE COUNTRY, THEY ARE DIRTY AND BRINGING IN
CRIME AND OBAMA WAS NOT REALLY AN AMERICAN, ETC.
BUT YOU ARE
BEING UNFAIR AND GAY PEOPLE SHOULDN'T HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS
AS STRAIGHT PEOPLE BUT WHAT YOU MEAN WE HATE THEM?
YOU DON'T AGREE WITH THEM ON BIGOTRY, GOOD.
AND YOU
SHOULDN'T.
YOU SHOULDN'T BE BALANCED ON THAT.
THAT IS
INSANITY.
ON ECONOMIC ISSUES, SILICON VALLEY IS VERY
CONSERVATIVE.
MOST OF THE COMPANIES DON'T EVEN PAY THEIR
TAXES.
YES, THEY FIND LEGAL WAYS TO DO THAT, GIANT
LOOPHOLES, THEY GO TO THE NETHERLANDS, IRELAND, THE CAYMAN
ISLANDS AND THEY PUSH FOR TAX CUTS SO SAYING GOLLY GEE, WE ARE
LIBERALS.
NO YOU AREN'T WHEN IT COMES TO AN ECONOMIC ISSUES.
SO WHAT DO THEY DO?
IN THIS CASE THEY HIRED A LOBBYIST, JOHN KYLE WHO IS KNOWN
AS A GUY WHO MAKES UP STUFF, A SENATOR FROM ARIZONA, IT
DOESN'T MEAN HE IS LEGITIMATE, HE IS THE GUY WHO, AMONG MANY,
BUT HE WROTE A LETTER TO THE WASHINGTON POST SAYING SADDAM
HUSSEIN IS THE ONE WHO DID 9/11.
THAT WAS A GIGANTIC LIE, ALMOST
THE DEFINITION OF FAKE NEWS AND THAT LED US TO GOING INTO IRAQ
AND ONE OF THE WORST DECISIONS THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT HAS EVER
MADE AND NOW THAT GUY IS IN CHARGE OF WHAT IS TELLING US
WHAT
FAKE NEWS IS?
BY THE WAY, THAT IS AMONG THE MANY THINGS THAT HE HAS SAID
WRONG ON PURPOSE.
HE IS THE ONE WHO SAID THE TOTAL FABRICATION
ABOUT PLANNED PARENTHOOD THAT ALL THEY DO IS ABORTION.
STEPHEN
COLBERT MADE FUN OF HIM FAMOUSLY FOR THAT COMMENT AND THE LIST
GOES ON AND ON, BUT THE THING THAT DRIVES ME CRAZY IS THEY
ONLY HIRED A CONSERVATIVE.
THEY DID NOT HIRE A LIBERAL.
WE DO
NOT NEED LIBERALS, ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS APPEASE THE
CONSERVATIVES.
YOU KNOW THAT MAKES YOU?
A CONSERVATIVE.
IF YOUR IDEA OF BALANCE IS ONLY CONSERVATIVES
AND LIBERALS, THAT DOES NOT MAKE YOU A LIBERAL.
THAT MAKES YOU A
CONSERVATIVE.
SO THEY WILL DISCRIMINATE AGAINST LIBERALS.
THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME, AND BY THE WAY, ONE OF THE THINGS, THE
MAIN THING THEY ARE GOING TO DO IS THEY ARE GOING TO SAY, CNN
YELLED AT US, SO CNN IS LEGITIMATE AND TRUSTWORTHY, NEW
YORK TIMES, WASHINGTON POST, LEGITIMATE.
JOHN KYLE SAYS
BREITBART AND THESE INSANE PEOPLE ON THE RIGHT WHO LIED
NONSTOP, THERE LEGITIMATE BECAUSE CONSERVATIVES YELL AT US
BY GOD HELP YOU IF YOU'RE PROGRESSIVE AND INDEPENDENT.
THEY ARE COMING FOR YOU.
DOES THAT INCLUDE US?
I DON'T KNOW,
WE'RE THE LARGEST ONLINE NEWS SHOW ON THE PLANET SO MAYBE
THEY WILL GO, THAT IS FINE, OR MAYBE THEY WILL GO, JOHN KYLE
TOLD ME TO KILL OFF YOUR SHOW.
MAYBE WE SURVIVE BECAUSE WE ARE
SO LARGE BUT EVERYONE WHO ISN'T AS LARGE AS US, YOU ARE IN A
WORLD OF TROUBLE.
ALL OF THOSE PROGRESSIVE OUTLETS, THEY JUST
HIRED JOHN KYLE TO KILL YOU.
I DO NOT MEAN LITERALLY OF COURSE,
I MEAN THE KILL OFF ANY TRAFFIC YOU MIGHT HAVE ON FACEBOOK.
GET
IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULL.
YOU HAVE A CONSERVATIVE ECONOMIC
BIAS, NOT A LIBERAL ONE.
THEY ARE DATA COMPANIES AND THEY ARE SO FOCUSED ON DATA IN
MANY, MANY WAYS BUT THEY ALSO DON'T LIKE TO GET PICKED ON.
I
WENT TO SCHOOL WITH A LOT OF THEM.
THEY'RE STILL NERD.S THEY DON'T
LIKE TO GET PICKED ON.
OH MY GOD, SOMEONE IS PICKING ON ME
AND THEN THE BULLIES ARE DOING THAT TO THEM AND THEY ARE LIKE
FINE, HERE IS A ROOM.
LET'S HAVE A MEETING, JUST QUIT PICKING ON
ME.
AND REINFORCES THAT KIND OF BEHAVIOR, IT SHOWS PEOPLE THAT
YOUR TACTIC OF INTIMIDATING FACEBOOK IS WORKING, AND
THEY NEED TO STOP.
IT IS THIS IDEA THAT FACTS DON'T MATTER AS MUCH AS
COMPLAINTS DO AND WE SEE UNFORTUNATELY IN LOCAL NEWS A
LOT AND IT WAS ALL IN THE COVERAGE OF HOW WE COVERED COLIN
KAEPERNICK KNEELING.
FACTS DON'T MATTER AS MUCH AS COMPLAINING.
THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS DINNER, IT BECAME THIS WHOLE
STORY ABOUT HOW SHE WAS BASHING THIS WOMAN'S LOOKS AND INITIALLY
I FEEL LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE WATCHING IT NEVER THOUGHT THAT
IT ALL AND HERE IT IS AGAIN, FACTS DON'T MATTER AS MUCH
AS COMPLAINTS DO.
HAPPENS EVERYWHERE.
BECAUSE THEY ARE AN ADVERTISING COMPANY.
YOU GUYS, YOU THINK IT IS GOING TO MAKE THE
COMPLAINTS GO AWAY?
IT IS GOING TO MAKE THEM DOUBLE.
WHY?
BECAUSE IT WORKED.
SO THEN THEY WILL LEAN MORE HEAVILY CONSERVATIVE AND THAT IS
WHY CONSERVATIVES ARE PROFESSIONAL CRYBABIES.
THEY
LITERALLY DO IT ON PURPOSE SO THEY GET TRIGGERED AND THEY NEED
A SAFE SPACE.
FACEBOOK, YOU NEED TO CREATE A SAVE SPACE.
IT IS CATEGORICALLY EMPIRICALLY NOT SURE THAT DIAMOND AND
SILK WERE DISCRIMINATED BY FACEBOOK AND BY THE WAY,
THEY WENT ON FOX NEWS AFTER IT WAS PROVEN THAT FACEBOOK
NOT ONLY DID NOT DISCRIMINATE AGAINST THEM WAS SENT THEM
A LETTER SAYING HOW CAN WE HELP AND THEY WENT ON FOX NEWS
AND SAID THEY NEVER SENT US A LETTER.
YOU KNOW THAT IS?
THAT IS FAKE NEWS AND WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?
YOU ARE NOW GOING TO REWARD THAT BECAUSE YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE
BULLIED AND TED CRUZ YELLED AT YOU.
FIND, I AM NOW YELLING AT
YOU.
YOU GUYS ARE CONSERVATIVE AND YOU DISCRIMINATE AGAINST
PROGRESSIVES ALL THE TIME.
YOU ARE PUSHING AND PUSHING.
THE
GREAT MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE ONLINE AND CERTAINLY AMONG THE
YOUNG WHO ARE VERY PROGRESSIVE, YOU KEEP PUSHING THEM AWAY
SAYING WE ARE A GIANT CONSERVATIVE CORPORATION WHO
DOESN'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU.
ALL WE ARE EVER GOING TO DO IS
LOOK OUT FOR CONSERVATIVES.
WE ARE NEVER GOING TO LOOK OUT FOR
PROGRESSIVES.
I AM GOING TO GUESS THAT THAT IS NOT A WINNING
BUSINESS STRATEGY WHEN 80% OF THE YOUNGER PROGRESSIVES, BUT
GOOD LUCK WITH THAT, MARK.
