Comments like these about censorship keep coming up, yet this is the third straight day this topic is being discussed on the front page of HN.
I see the same thing on Facebook. Half of my family is still complaining about censorship and how everything is politicized while they continue to post political memes about Hilary Clinton, false or misleading information about vaccines, etc. The other half quit facebook or occasionally post family pictures.
