Earlier today, a private message was received from a friend. It included a Trump ad that was apparently “banned” by Facebook and converted into a meme and shared by an unfamiliar third party account with an added “President Trump ad being banned by Facebook” caption.

Since it’s common knowledge that social media monopolies have been removing conservative campaign ads and even banning whole conservative accounts, the claim appeared to be much more than plausible. Sharing this copy that is “fact checked” based on a claim that the video that otherwise does not exist on the platform was “not censored.”

According to Facebook, they DO acknowledge censoring Trump campaign ads with takedowns, but believe the evidence that they HAVE NOT taken THIS one down is that it doesn’t appear anywhere on Facebook! And they claim there’s no evidence that it is a Trump Campaign ad!
