I really dont understand this comment and this attitude? Being a police officer is a job, one can choose to change it at any time, it is not even comparable to a race, gender, etc. If your same comment was written about software engineers or plumbers, would it not seem a bit odd? I don't understand the putting a job on a pedestal, especially a job where someone is given the power to violently assault and kill people and get away with it.

The parent post may be hinting at selective censorship by the platforms, which is their right as a private org. There's a lot of angst around that on both sides in America. Parent post used bad language if this is their reason for posting. Otherwise it's just antagonistic and unwelcome

  >> selective censorship by the platforms, which is their right as a private org So, just because they are not government they are allowed to lie and manipulate? Because "selective censorship" is just this: manipulation.

    Censorship / removing fake news & propaganda is an unsolved problem. We are just starting to have this conversation. No need to imply that all cases are out of malice

    Another name for "selective censorship" is "asserting one's property rights". Do you not care about property rights?
