Don’t be shocked when Farrakhan is silently reinstated.
Nazis were allowed to march in Skokie Illinois, decades ago.
The (heavily Jewish ACLU) backed them.
Social media platforms might be seen as a “public soap box” in the town’s central park.
Ass it now stands, the platform owners are opting out of the “free speech” business.
Finally I have heard discussion about the need, for “reinstatement” proceedures if somebody innocently steps over lines.
I don’t like conservatism being silenced. I do’t care much for the pain that Alex Jones caused for families of children that were murdered.
Somewhere the is a common sense solution.
“When will Facebook start banning outlets that spread the dangerous Russiagate conspiracy theory and the Russian disinformation called the Steele Dossier?”
You think Milo is a "thought leader"?
Just wait, soon they will ban Climate Change Deniers..................
Find a plaintiff (preferably in Texas, Louisiana, or Mississippi) who has been defamed by someone on Facebook (preferably a high-profile leftist who should have been banned as “dangerous” under Facebook’s professed standards). File suit against Facebook for defamation in federal court in Texas, Louisiana, or Mississippi. When Facebook raises Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, argue that Facebook is not an “interactive computer service,” but is an “information content provider” under the Act and is acting as a publisher because it curates and exercises editorial control over, and thus participates in developing, the content on Facebook pages, and thus is not protected under that statute.
While there have been close to 100 cases on Section 230 of the CDA and Facebook, neither the Fifth Circuit nor the Supreme Court have ruled on this issue. Also, this claim should open the door to a lot of discovery on Facebook’s practices in deciding what goes on Facebook.
Just a thought.
THIS IS THE EQUIVALENT OF NAZIS BURNING BOOKS
TIME TO BRAND ZUCKERBERG (and those others) WITH THAT APROPOS LABEL
Farrakhan is to obvious in his hate to be ALLOWED to be shown when he is a darling of the Leftists
The bans are just getting started. I mean, c'mon! Laura Loomer? Dangerous? Paul Joseph Watson? Are they serious?
