    (Actual conversation)

    Freedom loving conservative™: Speak your mind it’s your right to say things even if it offends people

    Me: The 50k dead Palestinian civilians won’t bring back the dead Israelis from Oct 7th

    Freedom loving conservative™: HOW DARE YOU, YOU ARE A TERRORIST SYMPATHISER AND YOU DESERVE TO BE DEPORTED, THAT SORT OF SPEECH SHOULD BE BANNED

    When conservatives whine at you like this, just remind them that they are in a cult. When they get mad at you, accuse them if ‘censoring’ your free speech.

      It’s even sadder than that honestly, it’s actually “I suspect that my post wasn’t recommended as hard as it could have been”

      It isn’t now. Go watch a science video on Facebook and read the comments. Every time I report all the idiots, and every time Meta decides not to remove the blatantly hateful, false information.

        I don’t use Facebook but I find that on YouTube people will spout blatantly awful bigoted takes and any kind of response I make, no matter how much I try to clean up the language, will get shadow deleted

        I don’t have a facebook account for that and a myriad of other reasons. But I agree I am lagging culturally because of it. I’m sorry that I get that way on here when I get all wound up.

          No, you’re fine, I was trying to illustrate that it’s already, and has been happening for quite some time. I wouldn’t be on Facebook at all if it weren’t for my family. I absolutely detest what sort of drivel is allowed to be posted there.

      This is amazing, the only thing I have found close to this is in the US is when CSPAN allow callers. They don’t even need questions, they often twist themselves in knots on their very own.

    “Somebody disagreed with me! Conservatives are a persecuted class just like Christians and black people and those other races!”

    You mean stuff like “we should deport illegal immigrants” and “abortion is murder”

    Because conservatives aren’t really afraid to say them. At worst, he’s just trying to avoid another ban.
