Pocotrader,
If it was misinformation about covid and making jokes about covd when many had already died I could see their point
This is where the line gets blurry.

Facebook had a vested interest in weeding out COVID misinformation. God knows how much the Q Continuum LOVES to spam their shit. Even now they continue recycling old lies like they're new again.

All of this spamming, all of this misinformation, all of the manipulation of the Algore-ithms, only gives Facebook some really good reasons to censor this stuff.

So when the federal government comes in and tells Facebook to do what Facebook probably wanted to do anyway, it seemed like an easy decision to comply.

(By the way, I don't know how much pressure the feds had to apply to Facebook. Maybe whatever pressure was there involved how to implement said censorship and content-filtering, rather than whether to do it at all.)

But now the Q Continuum is jumping up and down saying, "See? See? The government FORCED Facebook to censor information!"

And they might be half-right, given how much power the Feds have and how they often tried to meddle in the way Facebook self-censors content.

In any case, I believe this is a discussion worth having, but not a discussion that I entrust with members of the Q Continuum, even though ideally it's just as counterproductive (if not more so) to keep them away from the discussion.

Why?

Because, quite frankly, the Q Continuum isn't going into such a discussion on good faith terms.

After all, they may be victims of censorship, but how "victimized" are they really when they actively spam their content and try to game the Algore-ithms?
