In today’s increasingly polarized political environment, very few issues unite both sides of the spectrum. However, criticizing Facebook is the rare one that does. Both liberals and conservatives have voiced concerns with the social media giant for suppressing or even outright censoring political content by controlling what users’ see in their feeds. This week, another controversial incident occurred when Facebook banned the popular conservative account Libs of TikTok before promptly reinstating it.

According to Libs of Tiktok creator Chaya Raichik, she received a vague message from Facebook informing her that her page “has been disabled for going against our Community Standards. You cannot visit the Page and you won’t be able to add new people to the Page.” However, mere hours after she posted about the issue on X, her page was reinstated without an explanation. Even after the account was restored, Raichik blamed the company and its leadership for censoring political content ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

“It’s a shame that Mark Zuckerberg cares more about peddling lies and catering to far left ideologies than letting users speak,” Raichik said. “Buckle up for extreme censorship from big tech heading into the elections. They think we’re stupid.”

Of course, Facebook has gone out of its way to prove it’s not censoring content on either side of the aisle. However, because its content moderation policies are so unclear, these accusations will continue flying no matter what it says.
