Facebook Allegedly Suspends Magazine for Criticizing Islam. Now Check Out the Publication's Audience.

The editor of a Germany-based LGBT magazine claims Facebook blocked the publication's social media page after it published an article criticizing Islam following the terror attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida.

David Berger, editor-in-chief of Gaystream, asserted that the social media giant deactivated the magazine’s Facebook page after it posted the piece condemning members of Germany’s Green Party who "played down the causes of the attack," Breitbart reported.

Berger also claimed that his personal account was deactivated for about a month after he posted an article he’d written that blasted Cologne Gay Museum Director Brigit Bosold for telling German news outlets that she was more afraid of straight white men than Islamic radicals and migrants.

Another article the magazine published drew attention to a radical Imam who had visited an Orlando mosque weeks before the June 12 attack and advocated the death penalty for LGBT individuals.

Facebook has not revealed which article or post led it to allegedly block the magazine's page.

Berger said he believes German Justice Minister Heiko Maas ordered the censorship as part of an effort to stamp out “xenophobic” comments online and across social media platforms, according to Breitbart.

Gay conservative personality Milo Yiannopoulos was briefly suspended by Twitter Wednesday, sparking outrage among fans who claimed the social network targeted the outspoken commentator for criticizing radical Islamic extremism after the Orlando massacre.

Last month, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg met with more than a dozen conservative leaders in the United States to discuss the company's perceived bias that selectively promotes left-leaning news outlets.

"We've built Facebook to be a platform for all ideas. Our community's success depends on everyone feeling comfortable sharing anything they want," Zuckerberg said after the meeting. "It doesn't make sense for our mission or our business to suppress political content or prevent anyone from seeing what matters most to them."

"I want to do everything I can to make sure our teams uphold the integrity of our products," Zuckerberg said.
