    Yes, all 3.

    The thing is they attract sponsors, while Proud Boys might have resulted in their losing ads. Facebook doesn't give a Flying Fandango about Free speech, they exist to make money.

    You want to get anything off FB? Boycott their sponsors and send them emails about it. Send FB the same and tell them you will not go on FB any more and will urge all your friends not to either.

    And finally start your own Facebook and invite the Proud Boys to your first posters.

    And I only want 30% of your first billion, with the rest negotiable. Yes, I'm truly what they call me, Mr. Wonderful

    Neither have I. I don't even know how. Which is why I'm practically giving away the Idea of the Century for a palty 50%, but hurry that price won't last long

    "How do you do it Alex?" they all say to me. "You must be crazy to have these prices"

    And that's me, CRAZY ALEX, Come on down and take advantage of the mentally ill.

    Which means I personally have no complaint with the liberal fascists running FaceBook

    But as the man said,

    First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they ca…”

    If Republicans keep the House I think Free Speech may be dead in America.

    Free Speech does not me full access.

    Your old TV air waves are the old new public square. It is highly censored.

    Your definition of the public square may have changed...but that don't make it so.

    Votes don't make the immoral, moral. Facebook is not advocating the government use its gun to silence opposing views, but its opponents are advocating the government use its gun on Facebook, and other media to control their content. That's censorship. What Facebook and other social media are doing is operating their private business under their own standards.

    What your advocating is the use of force on disarmed citizens. Hiding it under "public square", "the common good", or whatever, by appealing to government interference in the free marketplace of ideas, is repulsive, disgusting, and immoral.

    So-called Keepers of the public square are neither Keepers or defenders of the "public square"; they are petty little tyrants aiming their guns at heads of free men.

    Facebook isn't "coming" for anyone and having rules for your own private platform isn't "fascists." When you have to trivialize the murder of millions in order to play make believe, you have no point.

    Paranoia is a poor excuse to trivialize the Holocaust.

    Facebook is not the government. The people who want Facebook regulated are the ones arguing for more government power. Try again.

    Naw - total fantasy.

    What IS "repulsive, disgusting and immoral" - as well as tragic - is the huge number of liberals rushing to trash the Constitution and the rights guaranteed thereunder.

    :(
