July 5, 2021 (NewsBusters) – Facebook is getting bashed for sending notifications to users who it deemed as having been exposed to “extremist content” that may be considered too right wing.

Users across the internet torched Facebook for sending them pop-up warnings that they had been exposed to so-called “extremist” content. RedState editor Kira Davis tweeted July 1: “Hey has anyone had this message pop up on their FB? My friend (who is not an ideologue but hosts lots of competing chatter) got this message twice. He’s very disturbed.” The Facebook notification asked, “Are you concerned that someone you know is becoming an extremist?” The platform followed up by assuring users that “We care about preventing extremism on Facebook. Others in your situation have received confidential support."
