Thomas Paine, one of the Founding Fathers of America is lucky not to have grown up in Woke America. He would have been banned.
Facebook has reportedly censored a quote from Thomas Paine, citing its policy against “false information.”
Reclaim the Net reported this week that a number of Facebook users have had their posts removed or had their accounts blocked for 24 hours after posting a meme of Thomas Paine along with a quote of his from April 1776.
The offending quote, deemed “false information” by Facebook, reads: “He who dares not offend cannot be honest,” a line from Paine’s writings in the Pennsylvania Journal.
In a cruel irony, Facebook has censored one of America’s pioneers of free speech, whose powerful Common Sense is the best-selling American title of all time and is still in print today.
It seems that Leftist "woke" people not only have no real intelligence, but also no sense of irony.
