Facebook has provoked a widespread backlash after the social media platform deleted Christian content and labeled it “hate speech.”
The issue was highlighted by journalist Billy Hallowell, a former Blaze writer.
Hallowell, a Christian, exercised his religious freedom by posting on Facebook: “Jesus died so you could live.”
However, despite his post reflecting one of Christianity’s core beliefs, Hallowell’s post was deleted by Facebook and he was accused of spreading “hate speech” on the Big Tech platform.
Hallowell shared about this on Twitter, backed up by screenshots, and a comment stating that the incident was “very, very bizarre.”

I think you might have the right of it.
Something else occurs to me. The Left is going to make the case that Christianity is a mental disorder, pointing to the act of Faith to which all Christians subscribe; that Jesus died for our sins and offers everlasting life to His believers. To Progressives, the idea that the deity lives in the clouds with the birds and offers immortality is proof positive that Christians are crazy, dangerously so.
Any Christian using facebook is a useful idiot.
Well, I guess saying Jesus died is hatred toward Christ….
From all the damn sales ads. 90% of the crap I get on my page is just that -CRAP
I was permanently banned from FB. The only explanation they provided was a picture I had posted years before of the crucifixion from the knees down. They said it violated their community standards against violence. I was not allowed to ask for a review.
FB is on the same page as Garland and the FBI. Please don’t suggest that any “collusion” is going on here.
Persecution of Christians is definitely coming to the western world. We haven’t seen anything yet.
That’s crazy. The Chinese commies are not as bad as an American company. Wow. (At least in this case)
Who says he is? Maybe his followers just are not listening to him yet.
God will defend the believers. God is sovereign. Amen.
Gee I never saw this coming.
It is difficult but I try. Thank you for posting.
Well, if you really don’t know there are lots of answers in the Bible but a couple come to mind. God is long suffering - meaning he gives lots of chances for people to repent of their sin and accept his free gift of forgiveness and eternal life. Sadly, most will not. When Abraham spoke with Jesus just before Sodom was judged, the text shows that the city would be spared if only 10 righteous people could be found.
The world is building a fiery furnace just like in Daniel 3 (think woke). Fall down and worship and all the pleasures of this life can be yours. You’ll be one of the cool kids. If not, be burned by the world system - fired from your job, jailed, shamed, killed. Of course, God has his Lake of Fire for all those who refuse his offer of salvation - sins forgiven, eternal life and pleasures forever more.
One last passage. II Thessalonians 2. Paul is writing to tell the believers in Thessalonica that they had not missed Christ return. He tells them that first there will be a great falling away from the faith (some translations say rebellion) before the Antichrist is revealed. I think we are seeing this right now. A line is being drawn in history between those who will stand for Christ and those who will reject him. Right now I would say Mark Zuckerberg is on the wrong side of the line.

It was Jesus' own 'hate speech' that got Him crucified!!
In Luke 22:67, Jesus is asked: "If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe".
But, in 22:70, when asked "Are you then the Son of God?", Jesus answers "You say that I am", affirming the title Son of God.[18]
At that point, the priests say "What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth", and they decide to condemn Jesus.[2][9][10]

READ THE BOOK!
that’s why...
Anything goes

because they can.
For now.
Hard to believe. But that's the case. Zuckerberg wants to eliminate competition (in this case, it's TikTok) so he's calling on his friends in Congress to ban TikTok.
