Members of Atlanta’s Ormewood Park Facebook group, have recently found their discussions of: - Organizing protests - Requests for information regarding criminal activity - Woman’s Rights (Abuse, Reproduction, etc) - Civil Rights topics - Corruption, fraud, or maleficence by political persons or organizations - General policies and actions by political persons or organizations - Graphics (memes, infographics, etc) referencing any of the above - Links to sites that may express any of the above … and other community concerns increasingly censored by a small group of moderators shaping the conversation by blocking and removing any content they find objectionable or supportive of views deemed controversial to the growing authoritative regime. In a move seen in similar online communities such as Reddit and X (formerly Twitter), communities are being deprived of long-standing means to coordinate resistance to increasing controls on speech, gathering and resistance.

"German-Israeli activist Iris Hefets was arrested for the first time in Berlin just a few weeks after the start of Israel’s war on Gaza last October – for holding a sign which read, “As a Jew and Israeli, stop the genocide in Gaza”. [...]
She was arrested a second time on November 10 for “inciting racial hatred” when she held the same sign – her charge was recently dropped. Her third arrest was for a sign warning that “Zionism kills”. Again, she was released soon after but, this time, her sign was confiscated."

I'm bloody torn on this one. On the one hand, I see the value in re-wording some works to ensure they are not reinforcing hateful stereotypes and can be enjoyed by future generations... but then there is the whole question of whether it is right to re-write the past or just teach it as wrong... not to mention unintended consequences:
