After more than ten years I will soon be leaving FaceBook. I am disgusted with FaceBook and its censorship policy developed in the past twelve months or so. While I have not been censored personally, I have seen enough of the daily newsfeed to know that some of my friends have been censored and so have other writers. This is intolerable.

FaceBook has decided that you and I are to be treated like young children in need of their paternal guidance because you are too immature to think for yourself. As I read, I take time to think and I’m perfectly capable of coming to my own conclusions. When I see something I disagree with, I simply scroll on. I’m confident that you are just as capable as I am on both points.
