Tommy Robinson is a horrible little thug. Spreading his bullshit to gullible racist twats. He is most certainly not a good man.
replied 2099d
So that makes it ok?

Facebook are obviously taking steps to stop this clown using their platform as a propoganda tool. A difficult thing to do and balance. But should they do something? Yes they should.

You are clueless.

How am I clueless ?
replied 2098d
They delete everything containing his name. We are not even allowed to discuss whether he's bad or not. Wtf. #orwell1984 #newspeak

The funniest thing is that de-platforming/censoring something like this have the opposite effect. They consider it as confirmation that they are on the right track & go underground.
replied 2098d
Haha true!! "if you find yourself agreeing with everyone else you should reconsider your opinion" is very true in this world.
replied 2098d
Not a fan of free speech I see...
replied 2098d
Well that's why I'm just using memo now. No moderators so whether they should censor or not is not even a question anymore.
replied 2098d
Memo.cash can be censored too (the operator of the frontend can hide content) but the information would be still available on the blockchain or on other frontends so it's a lot better.

Definitely a fan of free speech, also a fan of social responsibility by website operator's. Difficult combination. Facebook doesn't promote itself as a free speech platform 4 radicals.
replied 2098d
So...a fan of free speech as long as you eyeball content that you agree with. That's a popular approach.

replied 2098d
Content I agree with ? He nothing to do with what I agree with. It's about a website stopping a dangerous violent man stirring up racial tensions for his own political ambitions.
replied 2098d
I look at it from a different pov. If people are stupid enough to believe stuff like that then you will only make it worse by censoring/de-platforming them.

A website operator surely has rights of freedom too, do they not have the right to stop a file thug like Robinson using their platform to spread his bullshit ?
replied 2098d
The root of the problem lies in the audience's intellect and that can't be fixed with censorship.

Child porn, Islamic terrorist's posting recruitment videos, beheadings, you cool with that too ?
replied 2098d
CP is a completely different topic to the ramblings of a racist (assuming robinson does that, I didn't look into it) or the contents posted by terrorist groups.
replied 2092d
He doesn't. Look into it. He exposed child abuse by Islamic gangs. He was ordered to shut up about it. And he refused.

Robinson is a terrorist group ( or don't you think white males can be terrorist's?) He promotes hate and violence against Muslims. Which of course then empowers Muslim terrorist groups

If Facebook tries to stop this vicious circle of hate, good luck to them.
replied 2098d
Hatred and conflict is inherent part of humanity and no censorship or de-platforming can fix it in my view, it only makes it worse.

Today's technology and social media makes it very easy for radicals to quickly amass a large following. If unchecked they can post any BS they want to manipulate a vunerable public.
replied 2098d
Human stupidity makes that easy and enabled it all through our history.

Oh and just to add, it's not just Muslims on their hate list ! It's anyone who opposes them. He is happy to physically attack anyone who gets in his way. Violent thug.

Look into his history. String of conviction for assault. Conviction for fraud. His name not even Tommy Robinson ffs. See if you can find out why he uses that name, it's quite revelling
replied 2098d
Neither can be solved by censoring content. For the former, we should find scientific ways to identify and fix the degenerate behaviour....
replied 2098d
...for the latter...stop paying taxes to the Western and/or Eastern Empire. :)
replied 2099d
I just put it there to test Facebook. Other people got banned so wanted to see if it's true. Whatever you think this is a crazy reaction.
replied 2099d
And now it says "Hidden" on Imgur.com.. Wtf???
