Fucking our reach has been absolutely destroyed for most notably, events. If we try to organise a rally now, it's getting significantly smaller reach than before. Does anyone have research or news articles relating to this? I want to do a write up but need sources to not seem like an insane conspiracy theorist.

    Facebook was recently shown to be suppressing content from left publications like Mother Jones. They and other social media websites have become extremely reactionary since Snowden's revelation and Wikileaks. They're like a twisted version of Chinese Government control over social media, but manipulating public opinion as directed by the capitalists. All in the name of securing a democracy, lmao

    I have no suggestions.

    It is called "friction" and if you get enough reports against your account or users that join your organization they show your posts less often.

      Hmm, I don't think we would be getting too many reports, our posts are radical but not normally too "offensive" or something, thats something I'll look into though

        Doesn't have to happen to your group.

        If enough of your users fuck up off group you can get frictioned because of them.
