bans Gandhi quote as part of revisionist history purge</a><br>
<br>

(NaturalNews) The reports are absolutely true. Facebook suspended
the Natural News account earlier today after we posted an historical
quote from Mohandas Gandhi. The quote reads:<br>
<br>
"Among the many misdeeds of British rule in India, history will look
upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest." -
Mohandas Gandhi, an Autobiography, page 446.<br>
<br>
This historical quote was apparently too much for Facebook's censors
to bear. They suspended our account and gave us a "final warning"
that one more violation of their so-called "community guidelines"
would result in our account being permanently deactivated.<br>
<br>
They then demanded we send them a color copy of a "government issued
identification" in order to reactivate our account. Our account was
removed from suspension just minutes before InfoWars posted its
article on this Facebook censorship, and the Facebook page is now
functioning at:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.Facebook.com/NaturalNews">www.Facebook.com/NaturalNews</a><br>
<br>
This is a separate account from our primary Facebook account, which
has nearly 250,000 followers at:<br>

Logic is an enemy and history is a menace<br>
That Facebook would choose to disable our account after we posted a
Gandhi quote is incredibly shocking. The historical rise of
oppressed Indian people against tyrannical British rule is
apparently no longer allowed to be discussed on Facebook. The very
IDEA of a free people overcoming tyrannical government rule now
"violates community guidelines." The removal of this content is akin
to online book burning and the destruction of history.<br>
<br>
This post was not in any way malicious, nor encouraging violence,
nor even describing guns or the Second Amendment. It merely
reflected the words of one of our world's most celebrated rebel
leaders who helped an entire nation throw off the shackles of
oppression and British occupation. That Facebook would find this to
"violate community guidelines" is nothing short of absolutely
bewildering.<br>
<br>
Here is the full image as originally posted on Facebook. Keep in
mind that THIS is now considered unacceptable speech across the
"Facebook community," where any number of people can openly call for
the murder of the NRA president and have absolutely no action taken
against them:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
InfoWars.com is also now reporting that Facebook is running an
across-the-board PURGE of pro-gun accounts. A huge number of
accounts are all being systematically disabled or suspended, with
all content being wiped clean.<br>
<br>
We have entered the era of the Ministry of Truth from George
Orwell's 1984 novel. And while Facebook assaults the First Amendment
in America, Senator Feinstein is busy assaulting the Second.<br>
<br>
Facebook declares war on human history<br>
What's especially alarming about all this is that Gandhi himself was
of course a champion of resistance against tyranny. To banish quotes
from Gandhi is much like banning quotes of freedom from Martin
Luther King (who also openly supported concealed firearms, by the
way, and who personally owned an entire "arsenal" of firearms).<br>
<br>
What's next? Will Facebook ban quotes by Thomas Jefferson and George
Washington? Any and all patriots, founding fathers and liberty
lovers throughout history might soon be stricken from the Facebook
servers, and any who dare to post historical quotes supporting
liberty, the Bill of Rights, or the Second Amendment risk having
their accounts terminated and all content deleted.<br>
<br>
Collectivist propaganda has now reached a point where you can't even
discuss liberty or anything out of history that supported the right
to keep and bear arms. You are required to stay focused solely on
celebrity gossip, sports stars, fashion distractions and tabloid
garbage. Anyone who wishes to discuss actual American history must
now go underground and speak softly in dimly-lit rooms, behind
secret walls and drawn curtains.<br>
<br>
The era of total oppression and collectivist mind control has fully
arrived in America. This is not hyperbole... IT IS HERE NOW.<br>
<br>
Memorize this quote, because it too shall soon be purged from the
internet:<br>
<br>
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the
blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson.<br>
<br>
Dare to post that on Facebook and you risk your account being
disabled or deleted.<br>
