Fascistbook gave me a 30 day timeout for EXACTLY that reason. Free speech is only free if it is the speech they want to hear.
SMH,
Okay once again. Free speech NEVER EVER said you can say what you want, where you want to and when you want to.
I really wish they'd teach a civics class. FB is not a government entity.
It has stockholders, a creator and owner who very much can decide who gets to play in their sandbox as long as they don't discriminate against a federally protected class. While it is now a publicly traded company it is not a government entity
You are free to start your own social media platform and then you can say whatever you want
Free speech doesn't apply to private companies. Apparently the people who ignored jr high science about microorganisms and vaccinations also ignored high school political science. So censor away, Facebook.

Then why do social media’s are protected under Section 230?
Section 230 says that "No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider" (47 U.S.C. § 230).
Actually the anti-vaxxers would be better served to just keep quiet since they want to piggyback on herd immunity the people getting the vaccine are giving them. All the benefits, none of the risk. Zero benefit to an anti vaxxer convincing others to not get the vaccine. Unless just wanting to sow discord through the firehose of lies strategy Putin and Trump use.
Second day after my second Moderna shot. I have to say I feel like I have been rode hard and put up wet. Felt exhausted all day. But didnt even consider not getting the shot. I got an "A" in biology class. Sounds like many of the anti vaxxers were hiding out, "smokin in the boys room" when they were in school.
And yea you have freedom of speech to stand on soapbox on courthouse lawn and shout until you are blue in the face and hope somebody pays attention. But Facebook and other such are PRIVATE COMPANIES there for profit and they can set their own rules , they dont have to allow free speech. Read the TOS you agreed to when signing up, it didnt guarantee you anything, it was all to protect rights and profit of Facebook, NOT YOU.
Websleuths won't post any anti-vaccine or anti-mask posts. The moderator says they are doing their part to get everyone vaccinated since that's what the government, scientists, medical community, etc. wants.

Facebook itself is, or the moderator of a facebook group is?
