It's not a "joke." It's CRIMINALFacebook is such a joke now...
I am sure they will shadow ban anyone that doesn't fit their TOS, as the have been. But in much larger scales during the 2020 Election. They are only copying Twitter and Google with their algorithms.
No, it's a joke. Calling it criminal isn't a joke however. It's a dangerous threat to freedom of speech.
Not really a threat to free speech.. It's arguably illegal and could be called inciting violence, or harm to others or any NUMBER of criminal statutes...
The problem comes in when sites are NOT SPECIFIC about their content rules and just use euphemisms like "hate speech" and go about enforcing that by "I knows it when I sees it" rule...

There are no hate speech laws in the US, though.
