‘Careless People’ Is the Book About Facebook I’ve Wanted for a Decade, but it is Banned
“Careless People, by Sarah Wynn-Williams, is the book about Facebook that I didn’t know I had been waiting a decade to read. It’s also, notably, a book that Facebook does not want you to read; Wynn-Williams is currently under a gag order from a thir ...continues

"Why I'm Okay With Being #Banned From #TYT "

"Head of #TheYoungTurks #CenkUygur has banned me from appearing on any #TYT shows, including #TheDamageReport. It was probably expected."
"Anonymity on the internet should be banned."
Do we really want to live in a world where every opinion must be permanently tied to our real-world identity, etched in stone for judgment, even as we grow and evolve? Anonymity protects our ability to change, learn, and stay free.
Again. It's not "He won't go to #Canada" it's the #Fact that #JoeRogan CANT go to Canada. Not with his criminal record, #Canadians protect our children here at home from predators. Might wanna look into that #America.

Well this takes the cake. A #KennedyCenter email full of all the #banned words... suddenly repurposed to mean white fascists.... from Richard Grenell
....“As President, I take diversity and inclusion very seriously...I have met with many of you, and I love that we are Christian, Muslim, Jewish, agnostic, gay, straight, black, white, Hispanic and absolutely different.”
“Intolerance towards people who are politically different is just as unacceptable as intolerance in other areas,” he added.”

From banned books to banned words, Trump's no-no's include: "biased," "climate science," "women," "socioeconomic," "underprivileged," and "inequality."
“Men” is not on the taboo list, in deference to the political ascendency of the Manosphere, of course. New Republic

‘Knowledge is power’: new app helps US teens read books banned in school via The Guardian [Shared]
At home, the book helped Saffy feel comfortable and confident with gender expression.
But at school, Gender Queer was banned.
For the past two years, book banning has been on the rise in schools and libraries across the US, mainly due to far-right pressure. The bans are pushed either by local actors, like anxious parents and parent-led groups or by politicians through broader state-level laws. A recent PEN America study found that the bans were most prevalent this year in Florida, Texas, Utah, Missouri and South Carolina.

I got #banned on the so called "Swedish anti rasist" page #Panikfakta after complaining that the majority of their posts are either about #Putin, #Trump or praising #Zelensky, who (just like swedish PM) is surrounded by extreme right and #nazi characters and they have turned him into a saint because he is fighting the lunatic Putin. and nit about Sweden or racism among center and liberals in nordic countries.
I also received many personal attacks and extremely racist comments when I pointed out that all the images they had put on their page about extreme right in Europe were also supporters and friends of #Netanyahu.
I didn't receive a warning or explanation but the combination of those 2 comments was too much for the pro-NATO pro-Biden and swedish PEFPs.
One less reason for me to keep my account on FB.
