Is all content moderation necessarily a "political enterprise"? Like, the kind of dehumanizing rhetoric now being explicitly endorsed by Facebook against entire classes of people -- in their own examples used to bully others into joining the dehumanization campaign -- tends to lead to individual hate crimes and terrorism before it escalates to political bodies.

1. Meta is now granting its users new freedom to post a wide array of derogatory remarks about races, nationalities, ethnic groups, sexual orientations, and gender identities, training materials obtained by The Intercept reveal. Examples of newly permissible speech on Facebook and Instagram highlighted in the training materials include: “Immigrants are grubby, filthy pieces of shit.” “Gays are freaks.” “Look at that tranny (beneath photo of 17 year old girl).”

2. “Drawing lines around content moderation was always a political enterprise,” said Klonick, an associate professor of law at St. John’s University and scholar of content moderation policy. “To pretend these new rules are any more ‘neutral’ than the old rules is a farce and a lie.”
