Big League Politics Considered ‘Porn’, Censored By Pinterest

A whistle blower spoke to Project Veritas and exposed big tech platform Pinterest for classifying various pro-life and conservative websites as “porn” in order to censor them, and listing topics including “Ben Shapiro Ramadan” and “Ben Shapiro Islam” as controversial speech, and now Big League Politics has learned that we are also considered pornography by the platform.
In Pinterest’s text document, “porn_domain_blacklist”, dozens of conservative media outlets are considered “porn”. Big League Politics, Western Journal, TeaParty.org, PJ Media, and others are all covered in the dragnet, and considered “porn” by the big tech platform.
The whistle blower explained to Project Veritas’ James O’Keefe that the porn blacklist is used to ensure links to conservative and pro-choice websites are not posted to the platform.
After Project Veritas’ explosive video, Pinterest completely banned pro-life Live Action from the platform and eventually reinstated the page. However, Live Action links are still considered “porn” by Pinterest.
There has been no comment from Pinterest.
In response to the report, Pinterest then banned Live Action outrightly, only to re-instate the group’s page later. However, it is still classified as “pornography.”
Further documents published by Project Veritas show an employee calling right-wing pundit Ben Shapiro a “white supremacist,” and putting listing Candace Owens alongside him as “ones to watch for content.”“Ben Shapiro is a white supremacist who has regularly spewed anti muslim hate and he and candace owens and few others may be ones to watch content for over the next few days,” a post from an internal Slack chat said.
Pinterest has provided no known comment to media about its decision to place several prominent conservative websites, including Big League Politics, on this list.
Big League Politics, as many readers will remember, broke two major, national stories this year. In February, our investigative reporters uncovered explosive photos from the medical school yearbook of Virginia Governor Ralph Northam in either blackface or Ku Klux Klan robes. In the following days, our reporters also broke the news of Virginia Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax’s multiple sexual assault allegations. Big League Politics is not a “porn” website, and the allegation is simply preposterous.
Big League Politics contacted Pinterest for a comment on this revelation and did not receive an immediate response.
