Why does ANYONE use this site? If there had not been an uproar about that historical photo, it would have gone down the memory hole.

F Zuckerberg.

And F Facebook.

Good luck with that.

“They must see the difference between editing out child pornography and editing out history," ; she told Reuters.

“It's perfectly possible for a company like Facebook to sort this out. Otherwise we risk more censorship," ; she said.

Following picture was also removed in context when I re-posted the link on Twitter. It was later made viewable again when I questioned the disappearance with @Support. It is no less a correct representation of History, regardless of what Islamist it offends. Yes, ISIS actually beheaded the young woman for disobeying her mother. Then forced her mother to bathe her hands in her blood. ISIS is absolute Evil, Vermin.

@BarackObama You have 2 daughters surely you see the face of evil in this Satanic butchery ISIS EVIL

The companies are staffed with ignoramuses...they have never had a proper education. Their employees are little more than drones. They have no idea what history is and what lessons can be drawn from a careful examination of it.

There are Conservatives with brains and cash. I can't figure out why someone doesn't set up alternatives to fakebook and the msm.

Did see OAN on cable and it did look pretty good.

It was automatically deleted because they have an anti-child nudity rule. Most think it was computer generated not the hand of a wild-eyed censer. A Norwegian SJW went ballistic and turned it into an issue.

I have no love for FB or its owner but this was a big nothing.

Read an Amazon review where the author was complaining his history of VietNam was being auto-censored (IIRC, over the name “Phuc”, a common name in that part of the world.

His complaint was there was nowhere to take his appeal (kept getting auto-responses).

I used to argue with my tech-savvy friends about how if the web could inadvertently censor, what would happen if certain powers-that-be decided to do so on purpose.

They laughed at me back then. Now, not so much.

That photo was and is exploitation of the poor child.

It’s been a holy icon of the Marxist Left for decades, venerated as proof of tThe US and Capitalist evil.
