  1. So a few unelected, answerable to no one, web site employees have decided that they will determine what is right and what is wrong. Those few ultra arrogant employees will re-define our Bill Of Rights, and the freedoms endowed to us by our creator, and protected by our constitution. Those few self-righteous employees will overturn the Supreme Court of the Untied States of America, and decide that hate speech is not protected, and they will also define what is and is not hate speech. Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act shields facebook from lawsuits. If their site has postings that slander you, there is nothing you can do about it. They are protected, because they are a neutral platform. If facebook decides to moderate their content or edit their content, then they are no longer a neutral platform. They become a publisher (like the New York Times), and they can be sued for libelous content, because their Section 230 protection will no longer apply. The whole point of section 230 is to allow for platforms where people from all walks of life can engage in free speech, and the owners of the platforms are harmless from legal action. But that is only if the web sites mind their own business, and do not moderate, edit, or take sides. Those few employees think that Zuckerberg will not be able to replace them in a heartbeat? Those facebook employees are an example of the inmates trying to run the asylum. Those facebook employees are part of the swamp.
