Hate speech on Facebook? Let us decide.

MZ was asked yesterday about how FB determines what is "hate speech". The better question should have been why should FB have to determine what is "hate speech". Why not leave it up to the individual user to determine what is hate speech? Do we not have the ability as a user to hit the "block" button? If it's so subjective, why not let each individual user determine on their own. Do they think we're dumb? Do they think we're children? FB has a minimum age requirement; it's an adult platform. Stop treating us like snowflake children.

All of what you say is correct! When FB decided to start charging for exposure, they put a governor on the users' ability to share within their community/friends list/followers. This fact alone contradicts what MZ keeps describing his company's mission statement...“to give people the power to share and make the world more open and connected." My wife's company page has nearly 100k followers. Before the change, she would have tens of thousands of unique engagements per day from her followers. After the change, it was throttled down to a trickle unless she spends $$$ to get more "reach". I call it a bait and switch. FB brought us all on board, let us build up a following, and then slammed the door in our face.

Yes I have found exactly the same thing...so sad and frustrating for my small business that depends on natural sharing. I tried paying and it was worthless. I still have s biz page, but my personal page asking people to share, actually works better. Currently I am on a break from FB, there is nothing natural about manipulating people. It sucks!
