The Age of Censorship is Ending​

Ben Shapiro
Jan 09, 2025

"This week, in a stunning volte-face, Mark Zuckerberg announced that Facebook would now be revising its censorship policies to accord with his older vision of free speech. Specifically, Zuckerberg committed Facebook to revising a series of standards:
Reliance on left-wing fact-checkers will end, replaced by an X-like community notes system in which fact-checking will be crowdsourced;
Political content will no longer be artificially muted;
Censorship will be ended around controversial issues like transgender ideology and immigration;
The content moderation team will be shifted from California to Texas to better account for the varying views of Americans; and
Facebook will work with the Trump administration to push American-style free speech standards around the world."

Exactly! Sadly, soon it will be all but absolute.

That's more likely. I figure censorship will continue, they just won't be so overt about it. They'll preach 1st amendment freedoms while quietly censoring, propagandizing, and discrediting truth.
