Private entities have the right to decide what is or is not acceptable content on their platforms

Exactly. Not sure why people have this expectation that facebook is some kind of serious platform that should be held to some high journalistic standard

It was a website for rating girls. It's always been a joke website. People should be free to post whatever offensive and non-factual nonsense they want there (and its related subsidiaries)

If your entire life is so deeply entwined with facebook that you cant leave, and you demand that they only allow nice content, that's a YOU problem.

This is not a defense of facebook. This is me saying facebook is shit, it's ALWAYS been shit. Just walk away
