The Left's War On Christians Title: Project Veritas Exposes Anti-Christian Bias on Pinterest James O’Keefe is at it again … This time, the investigative journalist has discovered a big tech whistleblower who says Pinterest keeps a “porn blacklist” upon which it places conservative and Christian websites in order to block their content. Among the websites “blacklisted” by Pinterest are LiveAction.org, a pro-life website started by Lila Rose, and the libertarian stock market news website ZeroHedge.com. Both are classified as “pornography” to prevent pins to their content being linked to their respective websites. According to O’Keefe’s Project Veritas: “Project Veritas has received and published documents from an insider at Pinterest. The documents, which include product code, Slack messages, and internal policies, reveal terms and websites that Pinterest apparently censors. In an interview, the Pinterest insider who leaked the documents explains how the company censors pro-life and Christian content on the website. “Said Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe: ‘The documents we obtained raise questions about whether or not these tech companies really operate like neutral platforms, as opposed to publishers with editorial agendas.’ “Pinterest is a publicly traded social media company headquartered in San Francisco that has nearly 300 million active monthly users. In the past, Project Veritas released undercover footage of Twitter employees discussing “shadow banning,” and also published leaked documents from Facebook which revealed plans to target and demote conservative commentary.” Rose was later asked to respond to the discovery that her website was deemed “pornography” to prevent users from accessing it: “Pinterest says that their mission is to ‘help empower people to discover things that they love,’ but despite the fact that millions of people love babies and the pro-life cause, they are secretly censoring our life-affirming messages. Pinterest users deserve to know the truth and our messages deserve to be treated fairly.” Project Veritas followed up today with Pinterest officials. A spokesperson first claimed the LiveAction.org website was no longer on the “porn domain blacklist,” but then later told a reporter that LiveAction.org’s account had been permanently suspended—but did not explain why. The spokesperson then offered the following statement: “Religious content is allowed on Pinterest, and many people use our service to search for an save Pins inspired by their beliefs. To protect our users from being targeted based on personal characteristics, such as their religion, we have policies in place so that ads and recommendations don’t appear alongside certain terms.” Project Veritas however provided documents that prove specific terms like “Christian,” “Bible verses,” and “Christian Easter” have been deemed “sensitive terms” that will not autocomplete. Pinterest has also reportedly labeled videos produced by the Center for Medical Progress that expose the horrors of Planned Parenthood and Big Abortion as “harmful.”
