It looks like Google-Alphabet is about to turn the screws on content posted here. It might be related to a certain upcoming election.
Keys here are "hate", which goes beyond violent threats (absolutely actionable, I don't want them against me) into inciting more "hate" against such characteristic
as be associated with systemic discrimination or marginalization
. What if we can argue that a characteristic is intrinsically marginal - don't, says Goog; or we'll call it "hate" and block you. Let me raise here that every system must have a centre, surrounded by margins, and the whole point of debate is to argue for one's centre against alternatives.
The "misleading content" rule is even worse. This is defined as such that contradicts official government records
. Included here are medicine, which we recently found was wrong; or harmful conspiracy theories
, such as that the fact of the medicine being wrong was covered up. Seems that the theory had harmed those people who messed up and tried to hide it.
