The "political left" has been targeted for censorship and disruption by the FBI and other government agencies for decades. Forgive me if I interpret this as concern trolling, I think there are bigger social issues to tackle than the nebulous and catastrophic fear that Facebook being allowed to ban people will lead to ??? dystopia.
- kaczordon 5y agoRight that doesn’t mean we should continue to censor and remove people from public discussion. My comment isn’t specific to Facebook, it’s directed at all the tech giants who usually “coincidentally” all ban the same person(like Alex Jones). This doesn’t lead to a good place and it’s odd to me that you would dismiss this so easily. Imagine AOC had been banned from FB and all social media platforms while she was running her first election, doubt she would have had the same result.

The current Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, did exactly after the 2004 presidential election to reject certification of Bush's win: https://www.c-span.org/video/?185005-2/debate-ohio-electoral-vote-objection https://www.c-span.org/video/?185005-2/debate-ohio-electoral...
