Emily Ratajkowski says Facebook banning Trump gives Zuckerberg too much power

Model and actress Emily Ratajkowski has asserted that Mark Zuckerberg handing himself the power to silence President Trump via an “indefinite” Facebook ban is handing the Big Tech oligarch too much power.

Zuckerberg announced in a blog post earlier today that the social media giant was suspending Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts for at least two weeks until Joe Biden is inaugurated.

This followed Twitter deleting several of Trump’s tweets last night and suspending him for at least 12 hours in response to his supporters storming the Capitol building.

This prompted a pushback from Ratajkowski, who has 1.5 million Twitter followers.

Anyone else feel like proper amount of capital police being absent/letting Trump people in/providing insane visuals of MAGA dudes on the floor of the house was wildly convenient to justifying big tech’s rollout of censorship?

“Anyone else feel like proper amount of capital police being absent/letting Trump people in/providing insane visuals of MAGA dudes on the floor of the house was wildly convenient to justifying big tech’s rollout of censorship?” she asked.

This gives Facebook/tech/Zuck THE MOST POWER. If he can shut the president up/off he can shut any of us up/off

“This gives Facebook/tech/Zuck THE MOST POWER. If he can shut the president up/off he can shut any of us up/off,” Ratajkowski added, noting that she was expressing an opinion that would be “an unpopular take.”

The warning is somewhat odd coming from Ratajkowski, who has consistently sided with the same leftists who are normally feverish to ban free speech, but her stance should be applauded nonetheless.

Her reference to “letting Trump people in” comes from a video which shows police allowing the rioters to move close to the Capitol building before it was stormed.
