Do you REALLY think that any call to violence on platforms like Facebook will remain within any stated limits?

- smt88 5y agoI don't know or care. The article is about a change of policy. Whether or not Facebook follows its own policies is a separate issue. This policy, if followed, is reasonable. There's no reason they need to remove calls for violence (some would say "resistance") against soldiers in order to protect Russian civilians. Facebook moderators are asked to make much more complex decisions all the time.
- rzzzwilson 5y agoWhat I tried to say, and didn't communicate very well apparently, is that the people who can now let that inner demon loose will do so and this will spill over into other areas of human interaction. This will not stay confined purely within one little area of one communications channel. Let's hope this madness is curtailed before some nutcase thinks it's OK to attack an old man because he's wearing a vaguely military jacket and he spoke a foreign language that sounds like Russian. If you think that's farfetched then you really should refresh your memory a bit on recent hate crimes. And you have far more faith in "human moderators" than I do.
