It’s really not censoring. If you go to a bar and call the bartender a fat hog with big tits you would get thrown out
Same thing with FB, Twitter etc. if you don’t follow their rules you don’t get to use it. It’s not an inalienable right to have a social media account t. You agree to the tos even if 99.9999999% don’t read what that is

Are you following this conversation at all? They are discussing creating a new federal entity that would oversee Facebook's TOS and moderation standards. The feds don't generally tell bars the criteria under which they must eject patrons.

I love when Zuckerberg makes public statements defending Facebook. Does he think anyone believes anything he says?
I saw the movie about his life. He was not the good guy.
in fairness i saw a movie where a beautiful wife called a plumber and he was there in 20 minutes and had adult relations with her. we all know thats not true either. no way a plumber shows up in 20 minutes

Well, we know he created Facebook to hot/not hot his classmates at Yale, so I'm shocked that it hasn't turned into the utopia that Zuck is expecting.

Guys, I am not a moderator! I swear to God! Why does everyone think I'm a moderator?

I don't know the answer to your question, but there's no answer that paints Zuck or Facebook in a good light.
It wasn't his idea at all, right? He just stole it from them and made it happen? I don't remember now. The actor that played him in that movie really rubs me the wrong way.
