Today I posted a picture of a stamp with an animal in it and they said the picture contained nudity and made me take it down, but I reported a photo of a guy with a fully visible swastika tattoo and they said that's fine.

I'd like to start a Lemmy community with photos of stuff that they refuse to remove called FacebookSaysItsFine.

So wait... you're telling me that if you owned a social media platform, it shouldn't be left up to YOU what people post on that platform? Am I understanding this correctly?

We're not talking a Lemmy instance here, Facebook has 3 billion users. No, I don't think they should be deciding what people can and can't post there.

Edit: Wow, very surprised at the immediate response on here. Lemmy's favourite thing is shitting on Facebook, but you want them to globally decide which content can and can't be shared? Lol alright

I'd love to hear your explanation of "free speech".

[-] Steeve@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago

I don't agree that shit should be left up personally

Did you actually read my comment before replying? I'm not a "free speech absolutist", I think they're bullshit, but I also don't think Meta should be the one who decides where that line is.

So Meta should allow all speech then? If they are not to be deciding where the line is?

I've already pretty clearly said that governments should regulate this, not Meta. How could you even interpret my comments to mean "allow everything"?

I'm guessing this bullshit line of questioning is an attempt to convince yourself that I'm the type of person you've already decided I am in your head, which is pretty fucking lame. Not everyone has to live in political extremes.
