When a moderator removes one of your comments because they disagree with the content, that is censorship. When a moderator removes your comment because it breaks a well defined rule, then that is moderating.
Trying to moderate "hate speech", which is highly subjective, is a losing proposition.
- notveryrational 8y agoWhen well-defined rules include "content that the government wants to suppress because it criticized them" the rules provide censorship via moderation. In this case, Facebook - presuming what they did was "follow the rules" - is following censorship rules. So perhaps the thread should be about the US government forcing companies to censor free speech for them.
