Facebook funds the Digital Childhood Alliance, an "anti-big tech" PAC consisting of 50 conservative including the Heritage Foundation, Morality in Media and Moms for Liberty[1].
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
I didn't say the restriction was proper, just that it wasn't at all surprising. They're going after anything sex-related whether it's relevant or not. Earlier today I was reading about Amazon demonetizing anything considered "harmful"--mostly erotica that's not vanilla MF.
This isn’t really their beat, but as a free speech supporter, yes obviously this is terrible. Frankly, nobody should be using Meta products. This kind of thing is to be expected from Meta and has happened before.

There’s no law compelling them to. Just threats of retaliation.
Kinda vague.
Are you saying the govt should not/can not interfere with Meta's religious choices? I agree.
Are you saying Meta is therefore in the right? Hard disagree. I despise any corporation that tries to forcefeed religious messages to their customers.
New users at all costs.
Remember
Contraceptive companies are competitors to all other companies.
Until we meet again!
Discuss anything sex-adjacent with someone under 18? In the climate of pedo-hunting of course they restrict it.
Pedos and abortions are only connected by the venn diagram of things righteous people hate and do at the same time.

Does your free speech support not extend to Meta?
