Loath am I to be a nag–& not for the first time in my life over a political imperative–but the petition against FB censorship is moving too damn slow. For those of us perched on the edge of lockout, that is an issue.
Those circulating the petition have thousands of FB friends between us who are not responding to the issue of free speech. The petition isn’t a delusional gimmick to end the occupation of Kashmir. It’s a necessary appeal to FB to respect the US Bill of Rights because the Israeli lawsuit against FB is demanding greater censorship of posts supporting Palestinians & BDS.
You don’t have to like the people who initiated the petition or those cited whose accounts were closed. The issue is way beyond personalities & personal antipathies. It’s about freedom of speech. So for heaven’s sakes, sign the damn thing.
