Some of Republican presidential candidate  Donald Trump’s posts on Facebook have set off an intense debate inside the social media company over the past year, with some employees arguing certain posts about banning Muslims from entering the U.S. should be removed for violating the site’s rules on hate speech, according to people familiar with the matter.

The decision to allow Mr. Trump’s posts went all the way to  Facebook  Inc. Chief Executive  Mark Zuckerberg, who ruled in December that it would be inappropriate to censor the candidate, according to the people familiar with the matter. That decision has prompted employees across the company to complain on Facebook’s internal messaging service and in person to Mr. Zuckerberg and other managers that it was bending the site’s rules for Mr. Trump, and some employees who work in a group charged with reviewing content on Facebook threatened to quit, the people said.........

"Anything" not in line with the way the Left think is Hate Speech, and the wannabe little Tyrants will shut you up, censor you, ban you if they had the power to do so.
 
It is without any doubt in my mind that kids today have NEVER lived in a world of "Free Speech." They do not know it is an inherent RIGHT.
They think it is whatever their Professor told them it was. Which is; you are free to say nice things only, anything else is Hate Speech and not allowed.
 
These Idiots today think Hate Speech it is anything they don't want to hear.

I realize youse two wallow in hate and can't be expected to understand what community standards are.

It's very convenient for jim to set his own standards here at aesopsretreat...but not for Zuckerberg?

Go back to your white trash haven, and don't come out until you've taken a shower.

Yahoo! is very aggressive in censorship about muslimes and just now they changed the format, there is no thumbs up and down in comments, there is only a heart - which is thumbs up. They are fulling nobody, more people writes more comments pro-Trump than pro-Hilarious.
