I don’t see why that is hate speech? Seems like an opinion on policy. Granted she was patting herself on the back, but why should LinkedIn care? People post about their career successes all the time on LinkedIn. edit: not private..public company beholding to the shareholders and BOD. 2 1 Link to comment

I’m sure she’s confused and frustrated. But that doesn’t change the fact that her 1st Amendment rights weren’t stripped away. Now if the USAF takes her pension away…maybe 3 Link to comment

Or an angry recent college grad in major debt working as a monitor for LinkedIn. I am not posting this because she claimed first amendment rights. I am concerned that social media police don’t apply the rules consistently. 2 1 Link to comment

It took me longer to get a beer I ordered at dinner last night than it took the table next to me to get their food. We had the same waiter. Sometimes annoying things happen. I once had a Facebook post removed because I jokingly told a friend that someone should “slap the stupid out of” him. I got the message from FB saying it was deleted for promoting violence and laughed. And then went about my day. People are so freaking soft anymore, it’s pathetic. It’s a social media entry. It’s not a big deal. 6 Link to comment
commando Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I've read that there is a video out there floating around posted by a russian soldier of him raping and murdering a child. i support censoring that video out of existence except for maybe 1 copy for the war crimes tribunal. 1 Link to comment

I’m quite capable of lookin it up any time I need a refresher. It just seems you are really into exact words matter lately so I was trying to figure out where she said that? I believe she said something to affect of blood was shed for the freedom of speech. 2 Link to comment

Say what now? My interactions with you lately have been about the Florida law. Our discussion has been primarily based on your insistence that the law doesn’t literally have the word “gay” in it so it it crazy to call it the “don’t say gay” law. You might have the wrong guy here. 1 Link to comment
DevoHusker Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I don't see where she said her 1A rights were stripped away. I think she's pissed because linkin took down an innocuous post due to political stance only...because there was nothing offensive about it 1 Link to comment

Freedom of Speech has been secured by our blood, sweat and lives." How can one not assume she's talking about her 1st amendment rights.... mistakenly? 4 Link to comment
