A ban on political campaigning is very different from banning speech on politics in general.

  No, it’s really not with such politicized Facebook groups. In fact access to any medium where one’s opinion can get distributed to unreasonable number of consumers should be banned. Contemplate your choice on your own.

    Agreed. The irony of it all makes me really wonder: is the yellow vest leadership really that stupid to not know they would be throttled before the elections? No, they are led by expert manipulators that are playing a zerosum game -- if some uneducated person cements their belief that they are being silenced by Facebook unreasonablly that's a win. And if you know the laws you can shrug off the lie. Welcome to the era of zerosum politics.

    The more I think about it, this makes sense. No last minute Meme should sway your vote or trigger action. One should know at least a day in advance what they are voting for. OTOH it is sensorship.
