Golden State Coalition Candidate Blocked
by Facebook for Utilizing Freedom of Speech
Los Angeles,
California

– California Congressional Candidate for California’s 44th
Congressional District, Jazmina Saavedra, has been blocked by Facebook for exposing
the deceptive cultural Marxism tactics in play in California.  Saavedra shared a video of a man wearing a
pullover with a hoodie who used the ladies’ restroom in order to satisfy his
drug habit.  Once confronted, the man claimed
his use of the women’s stall was because at the moment he believed he was a
woman.  After using Facebook Live to expose the deception as the man exited the ladies’
restroom and entered the dining area, Facebook took down the video, and blocked
the Republican congressional candidate from posting on the social media platform. 
Facebook
claims that under its policies, content showing public bullying of a person is
prohibited, and they considered Saavedra’s tactics to be a form of bullying.
Facebook,
in an interview with the Washington Examiner, however, indicated that the
company does permit the “discussion of whether transgender people should be able
to use the bathroom of choice” and that the targeting of Saavedra was not based
on those grounds.
After
advising Saavedra that she may repost the video if the individual’s face is
blurred, Saavedra went on to share the video with the woman’s face blurred, but
at the end of the week, she shared another video in which the face of the
transgender woman was visible, and according to Facebook, that prompted the
company to again remove the video, and this time the social media platform issued
a block on Saavedra’s account.
Saavedra
states that Facebook never reached out to her, and a left-wing group has been
using her initial video in an attempt to ridicule the candidate into silence.
Jazmina
claims the move by Facebook is an obvious double-standard against
Republicans.  “It’s OK for them to
use it, but it’s not OK for me to use it by calling attention for safety for
women.”
Saveedra
states that the blocking of her access to Facebook was not something she was
aware of until The Washington Examiner sought comment.
The
purpose of the video, she said, was to shed light on safety issues for women.
“This
is not about homophobic, transgender, this is about safety,” she said.
“This is about safety. I don’t even have any idea who is behind that
[bathroom] door.”
The
Golden State Coalition stands behind their candidate, recognizing that the
mainstream media and various activists are seeking to misrepresent what
happened, and that the selective actions by Facebook reveals, as suspected by
members of the GOP, that the social media platform adjusts its policies
selectively depending upon the political message of the subject being
investigated.
