Meta deleted nonbinary and trans themes for its Messenger app this week, around the same time that the company announced it would change its rules to allow users to declare that LGBTQ+ people are “mentally ill,” 404 Media has learned.

    I agree with you, but true free speech also gives Facebook the right to choose its own themes. I’d vote with my feet on this one, but I already abandoned Facebook years ago.

      Oh I know, it’s just that they said they’re removing moderation for “free speech” and then remove one of the ways you can express themselves. Just hypocritical.

        For sure. Any social media company that says they’re pro free speech is just posturing at best. They have full dictator control of their systems.
