The ad boycott on Facebook focuses on advertising for the month of July and also includes Eddie Bauer and Ben & Jerry's.to announce it was halting advertising and said its boycott would continue until Facebook puts in place stricter policies to stem the flow of hate speech on Facebook and Instagram. Patagonia, REI, Mozilla and Upwork in addition to about 100 smaller companies also have said they are committed.
Nearly all of the social media company's revenue comes from advertising on Facebook and Instagram. Shares of Facebook dropped more than 8% on Friday.
The only speech that needs protecting is the speech that offends you. I find it hilarious how easily the leftists will fall into fascistic tactics. target pandered and BLM/Antifa still wants to burn them down. Honest businesses-your only chance to survive is to unite for freedom
These 'iconic brands' are helping the increasingly radical socialist Democrats win in November even though Biden promised to raise corporate taxes and regulations where they were before Trump. The USA is the first country where capitalists are supporting their own destruction.

You do realize that the only “hate speech” that will be suppressed will be Right leaning speech! Violence, hate, oppression, real hate speech, and bias, will be rampant, siding with the Left. Glad I got away from Nazibook Facebook
Good
Advertisers should not interfere with people's freedom of speech.
Hate speech is an argument fro the results. Of Facebook too, right?
This is great for small businesses.
Soon only Facebook will post touchy, feely crap & FB employees will write touchy, feely posts.
What happened to the 'Free Speech' ? So sick of all this bowing down to this crap that's going on now. And they buy the ad space.
Facebook is having to do what the Democrat mainstream media demands. Only the Democrat Socialist Party will be allowed to define hate speech and corporate America will cowardly do whatever these leftist groups demand. Corporate America will succumb to the blackmail easily.

Meh. Your 'hate speech' is someone else's position paper. That's what the 1st Amendment is about.
That’s fine but it must be hate speech from the left and right. We can’t have censorship, bullying & the cancel culture which is going on now.
Facebook has become more powerful than any other non government in the world. The company is run by a few persons that are far removed from reality. In the process it has become an unregulated monopoly who sets what’s right and wrong. It time the TheJusticeDept to break.
Define hate speech.
Free speech is not about what you like to hear, it’s about defending my right to say what you don’t want to hear.
Mark Zuckerberg is a sociopath who cares not about anything or anyone but himself and his wallet.
Not just hate speech but it is the breeding ground of fakenews!!!!
First they came for conservatives, and no one listened...
Yes!! Right.
Good for Zuck. Stay strong.
