She said that Facebook \"destabilizes democracies\" by promoting extremist content such as hate speech, calls for violence and disinformation. According to her, the algorithms favor content that generates outrage since outrage generates more engagement and engagement generates more revenue.\n\nThis testimony and her [60 minutes interview](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/facebook-whistleblower-frances-haugen-misinformation-public-60-minutes-2021-10-03/) have put her into the cross-hairs of right-wingers.\n\nRepublicans have fooled [90% of their base](https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2020/08/19/most-americans-think-social-media-sites-censor-political-viewpoints/) into believing that social media silences \"conservative\" voices. The reality is quite the opposite. \"Conservatives\" [dominate social media](https://www.politico.com/news/2020/10/26/censorship-conservatives-social-media-432643) in general and Facebook in particular. CrowdTangle, the analytics tool for social media posts that Facebook acquired five years ago, consistently shows that [the top-performing link posts were all created by right-wing media and the former president](https://sfist.com/2021/07/14/facebook-is-dismantling-crowdtangle-because-it-showed-the-platform-to-be-a-right-wing-echo-chamber/). The narrative that \"conservatives\" are being \"censored\" [is itself disinformation](https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2021/02/01/are-social-media-companies-biased-against-conservatives-theres-no-solid-evidence-report-concludes/).\n\nThe `r/LouderWithCrowder` meme lies that there's a conspiracy between Frances Haugen and Facebook to justify censorship of conservative voices. There is simply no evidence behind this accusation. It is completely fact-free. What can be claimed without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence. Politifact rates this meme as [\"pants on fire\"](https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/oct/08/viral-image/no-evidence-whistleblower-frances-haugen-was-plant/)\n\n----\n\ncopy/pasta for the \"additional information\" of Reddit's [report](https://www.reddit.com/report?reason=this-is-misinformation) form:\n\n----\n\nThis meme lies that there's a conspiracy between Frances Haugen and Facebook to justify censorship of conservative voices.
