Facebook has BLOCKED a California congressional candidate’s campaign ad from appearing on their platform.
Why?
It was too “shocking.”
.@facebook rejected my video because it was “too shocking” for their platform, referring to the scenes of horrific events my parents survived in Cambodia. Facebook, do you think it’s right to censor history? #censorship

Elizabeth Heng talks about the horrific hardships her parents endured under a COMMUNIST REGIME.
That’s wayyyyy too shocking. Facebook apparently only allows for posts that PRAISE Communism.
Meanwhile, liberal outlets like Teen Vogue get away with telling us that “abortion is FUNNY!”
Because that’s what passes as acceptable nowadays. THAT is not shocking at all.
Here’s the full ad:
Is it hard to watch? Yes. But the atrocities of this Communist regime are real – and worth bringing to light.
I’d also like to mention that her ad is AMAZING. I’d TOTALLY vote for her. You want strong female role models? HERE YOU GO.
“It is unbelievable that Facebook could have such blatant disregard for the history that so many people, including my own parents, have lived through,” Heng said in a statement. “I’m sure it is shocking for some people to hear about this kind of injustice, but this is reality.”
“This is why I wake up every single day with the fight and determination to have a voice and make a difference in my community Neither Facebook nor any other company in the tech industry get to silence our stories. We’ve seen it over and over again with Republican candidates and organizations. This kind of censorship is an attack on the freedoms that we have as Americans to express what we believe in, and we must hold Facebook accountable.”
At a time when Facebook is pretending to “combat” election meddling… are they not doing just that?
