Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.
Sites have rules. (including this one). If I ran a social media site, I wouldn't want my users thinking that uncontrolled falsehoods were freely propagating on my site.
That's a power issue. Before all the censorship, here on these sites we used to post verifying evidence in almost all our posts, citing sources to back our claims... Then we could critique the sources in a debate format, to see what was more or less likely accurate.
I've been reading this site since before you joined (you probably have been too). I don't recall "citation" as being common on this site. There were a few "debate" forums that have been shut down (not in this section, but in C/E, and a few other sections). Those fora featured long posts that people spent hours writing. (I've written a few of those posts too, but that is not the majority of them). Most posts are short and most contain at most one "reference" link.
What is facebook?
(never been to that site, so I don't have any idea how things go down there.)I don't know "Landon", it sure looks like you were trying to get me to call for making propaganda illegal or worse:
I doubt you guys could successfully silence me on what I've written here, even being a MAGA myself... But I'm sure someone could try.

Like I said, the sites should take some responsibility for the content posted on them and deal with posters who propagate known propaganda and falsehood.
...So we shouldn't bully them by calling them names like "deadbeat", "idiot" or "wackjob"..? Instead we should simply point out their errors?
No one is trying to silence you. Nor did anyone say they wanted to. We were talking about propaganda.
No "scripture" or quote from the catechism is going to be relevant here. As for the "news"...
The "black" insurrectionist didn't offer debate. He posted a fake document and claimed it was true. He's also been spreading conspiracies on Twitter for a while. (He apparently made up some horrible stuff about Tim Walz that didn't get the same traction.) He got what he deserved.
