I just got my first three day suspension from The Facebook, for "Bullying and Harassment." We all know how the internet interprets censorship and what it does; here's the offending text:
http://pilobilus.net/My.Thoughtcrime.html
The offending text contains none of the following: Hate speech, disparagement of any person or product, incitement to violence, solicitation of crime, commercial content, personal attacks of any kind, violent or sexual language of any kind. It was on-topic in the reply thread where I posted it.
My thoughtcrime? I questioned the accuracy of the New Zeland Mosque shooter's video, without explicitly describing anything in it. Then I very briefly speculated on the propaganda intent of the video, concluding that the two most obvious but seemingly 100% contradictory objectives would /both/ serve Corporate State interests by "playing both ends against the middle."
Careful - after FB gives you three strikes your provider will automatically downgrade your connection to subsistence speeds, with total disconnection from the network the eventual, final punishment ;) Of course, that's a bullshit scenario, right now, in the USA. But it's not a terrible stretch of the imagination. If the sheep can't stay in their lane, they get put down.
Bullying and harassment? On second thought, maybe I /did/ break some Perfect Citizen's brain and send him howling into the night. If so, go and do ye likewise.
