Removing Holocaust Denial Content
Admirable move. I think Facebook (and all its properties), Twitter, and other hyper-connected social networks must show a healthy level of intolerance towards groups and ideologies that are beyond reason and recall, especially when those said groups are overtly and unmistakably intolerant themselves.This heavy-handedness isn't an encroachment on free speech but a necessary impediment to keep the spirit of free speech and free society intact, one where the tolerant voices aren't drained out by the relentlessness and irrationality of the intolerant.See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_toleranceSimilar discussions (re Cloudflare terminates 8chan): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20616055 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20610395
