“HATE SPEECH”: FACEBOOK DELETES POST QUOTING PEACEFUL CATHOLIC THEOLOGIAN
July 20, 2019
Facebook banned a peace-loving quote by St. Augustine of Hippo, a Catholic theologian and philosopher, saying it was “hate speech”.
Yes, really.
Dominic Bettinelli wanted to run a test because two of his priest friends had been punished for posting the quote, only for him to also receive a message that he had violated Facebook’s “Community Standards on hate speech”.
