Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg explained Friday why the social media network left up President Trump's posts about Minneapolis protests. Twitter put a disclaimer on the president's tweet on the subject.

Funny how Facebook can take ordinary everyday peoples posts down or be put in Facebook jail. It’s all a case of who you are.

If I had one wish just one... I wld wish that Facebook was never invented.

Absolutely hilarious, they stand by freedom of speech yet I got a 30 day ban for saying the word ‘shrimp’

[Camie.in.Philly]

But they will put me in FB jail for a week if I said the same thing🤔

[JudahNYC]

Get off Facebook, it needs to go away.

[vilmarodriguez]

Leave Facebook people. That is the best protest. It will hurt him and his corporation deeply.

[johnperry]

I got kicked off of Facebook for calling somebody a hillbilly, but at least I wasn't lying.

[MrTheguywiththemoney]

"He stands by freedom of expression"... *WHAT ABOUT FREEDOM OF SPEECH?*

[vilmarodriguez]

He is a coward. Even he says so; Facebook will be regulated.

[qbanz]

Freedom of expression? I get blocked for saying lesbian .

It's 2020. People still have accounts with that social cesspool Facebook? smh

Bring Alex Jones back and the countless others censored and banned from Facebook. Facebook does not practice universal human right to free speech.Facebook used to be our public town square where everyone could freely share their thoughts, beliefs and opinions no matter how extremely different.This is not the case today for today Facebook acts authoritarian.

Getting banned from Twitter is the same as getting banned from Xbox live. It’s a privilege not a right.

[LogicalQ]

As an American who votes, I don’t want a social media platform censoring our president or our politicians. Period. If they post something profoundly troubling, leave it there for everyone to see so we know how to vote next election.

[digwealth]

I have had comments censored on FB and I have never purported violence, been rude, or cursed. WTH? He is lying.

[merlinmarquardt]

If you want free speech, you can’t just censor stuff that is stupid or wrong or untrue. Everything needs to be “fact checked”.

[damita]

That’s fine. Then we will continue to express ourselves as well and we will do it loudly.

[vera]

Everyone should close their Facebook accounts and show him who really makes him money.

[mavelfig]

Who cares everyone is entitled to freedom of speech

[annanderson]

He is a schill and a coward! He would sell his own mother's data! 🤥
