Perhaps you will not be able to discuss your religion in a forum again. Has First Amendment free speech been canceled?
What is DHS' Disinformation Governance Board and why is everyone so mad about it?
Fearing that disinformation can threaten US security, the DHS (Department of Homeland Security) created the
Government Misinformation Board, that has the authority to remove posts, or change the writing of posts in forums. It all depends on how they interpret the misinformation.
My friend had her post
removed from Facebook for posting a picture of a pretty purple owl. It was said to be untrue, because real owls are not that color. On the other hand, someone posted a unicorn. (Are uncorns real? Or, are censors playing favorites, banning some and not banning their friends?).
President Donald
Trump was a sitting president when he was
banned by Twitter and Facebook. The charges were that he incited the storming of Congress by an angry mob (over election tampering). Trump's ally, Mike
Lindell (the My Pillow Guy on TV) was also banned, and he was not allowed to advertise at certain cites. This was dubbed the
Cancel Culture.
The First Amendment assures free speech. Yet, there are limitations. We have seen
unprecedented censorship in recent times.
Responding to that censorship, the richest man in the world (Elon
Musk of Paypal, Tesla, Borer Project, and Space-x fame)
just bought majority control of Twitter, over the loud protestations of many regarding the hostile takeover. It cost Elon a lot, and his Tesla stock tumbled as a result.
Religious freedom only exists if other freedoms do. Take away freedoms of speech and press, and we cannot defend religion or tell others where to meet.
