The only speech that needs protecting is the speech that offends you. I find it hilarious how easily the leftists will fall into fascistic tactics. target pandered and BLM/Antifa still wants to burn them down. Honest businesses-your only chance to survive is to unite for freedom

These 'iconic brands' are helping the increasingly radical socialist Democrats win in November even though Biden promised to raise corporate taxes and regulations where they were before Trump. The USA is the first country where capitalists are supporting their own destruction.

You do realize that the only “hate speech” that will be suppressed will be Right leaning speech! Violence, hate, oppression, real hate speech, and bias, will be rampant, siding with the Left. Glad I got away from Nazibook Facebook

Good

Advertisers should not interfere with people's freedom of speech.

Hate speech is an argument fro the results. Of Facebook too, right?

This is great for small businesses.

Soon only Facebook will post touchy, feely crap & FB employees will write touchy, feely posts.

What happened to the 'Free Speech' ? So sick of all this bowing down to this crap that's going on now. And they buy the ad space.

Facebook is having to do what the Democrat mainstream media demands. Only the Democrat Socialist Party will be allowed to define hate speech and corporate America will cowardly do whatever these leftist groups demand. Corporate America will succumb to the blackmail easily.

Meh. Your 'hate speech' is someone else's position paper. That's what the 1st Amendment is about.

That’s fine but it must be hate speech from the left and right. We can’t have censorship, bullying & the cancel culture which is going on now.

Facebook has become more powerful than any other non government in the world. The company is run by a few persons that are far removed from reality. In the process it has become an unregulated monopoly who sets what’s right and wrong. It time the TheJusticeDept to break.

Define hate speech.

Free speech is not about what you like to hear, it’s about defending my right to say what you don’t want to hear.

Mark Zuckerberg is a sociopath who cares not about anything or anyone but himself and his wallet.

Not just hate speech but it is the breeding ground of fakenews!!!!

First they came for conservatives, and no one listened...

Yes!! Right.

Good for Zuck. Stay strong.

These are the companies boycotting Facebook over its hate policiesA coalition of civil rights groups recently called on major advertisers to boycott Facebook and stop advertising on the social media network in July. Here are the companies that said they would join it. Just like MySpace, Facebook will be nothing more than a distant memory within the next two years. The real problem is the radical leftists using fear to push companies into submission. At the end of the day, we’re all Americans. Once that fact is realized, we’ll all be happy. Facebook is liberal. Way to punish them for not being woke enough. 😂😂. Left is turning on their own Facebook has a HUGE market... it's the loss of the boycott crew on this one.
