I wouldn't go that far, but the website has a purpose and dang is very clear about keeping conversation within the guardrails of that purpose. It's not an open forum to discuss anything.

Give me a break. Guidelines that are selectively enforced is just power tripping censorship. This is a website that allows people to post advertisements for cigarettes while stamping down on anything that shakes the boat when it comes to China or labor rights in the USA. I don't see anyone using your logic to defend FB although it would be just as applicable.

No, I agree; this site regulates what topics are valid for conversation.
It's the rest of your comment I take issue with. Wake me when dang rolls tanks into a public square.
(... and I'll use my own logic to defend Facebook any day of the week. It's their site and their rules. If anything, I think the employees who believe they should be responsible and forthright about their policies there instead of pretending to neutrality are in the right).

I don't know how you keep arriving at the conclusion we disagree on this topic.
