We are in a catch-22 when it comes to FB&IG. Do we leave the platforms & continue to let it feed MAGA to recruit or do we stay to combat this while Meta gets richer? MAGA is ruling social media & without other platforms that have as many eyes & money MAGA will continue to grow!
Censorship by government is an issue, however a private digital platform can define its own terms of service and thus protect the user experience within the platform. Unsure of what remedy under law would apply here.
I made a joke on @Reddit about Canada burning down the White House (past tense, just stating a fact that actually happened) and got a 3 day suspension for "inciting violence".
That’s amazing. Lmao They only care about inciting violence towards people who aren’t like them. Can’t talk shit about them or they’ll get their little feelings hurt 💀💀💀💀
I got a stay in FB jail for saying that Confederates were treasonous and should have been treated as such. They said I was advocating violence. (Against dead people)
It’s weird how those meta platforms are now. You can openly be posting nazi stuff and they’re cool with it but when you call out right wing nonsense they slap you with a 30 day ban! Sickening!
Again… (this screaming into the windy void sure is tiresome)…
Dems need to seize on this behaviour and publicly embrace it. Thank the FTC chair, and say it’s about time. This is what they’ve wanted to do for a long time, and will pursue it aggressively in power. Then name targets. #GlovesOff
It seems to me that Truth Social and X are the only platforms this should involve because they are now quasi governmental entities, and cENsORsHIP only applies to government.
Not that it matters much but I just closed out my Facebook account. Trying to wean myself off of IG next. Also plan to liquidate my meta stock by the end of the month.
This is crappy, but I suspect it's the result of ai incompetence rather than focused malevolence.
I would avoid saying anything in there that you don't want made public.
I was booted from X at this time. Musk was just coming in. It's been about 2 years now. Many of my posts on FB have censored and am not allowed to post.
Don’t forget how many people are throttled for saying things like: Trump’s cruelty is the point. Seems like freedom of speech only if it is positive about them

I thought FB claimed Messenger messages are encrypted and can’t be viewed by FB.

Let them try
Bit of copy editing: in the last paragraph it should be "on cue" rather than "on queue"
