For years now, the social networks have limited our Christian outreach by accusing us of hate speech. Many posts have unjustifiably been taken down because of this, even though we are only professing our Bible-based beliefs. Of course, the liberals don’t care about our Christian beliefs. If what we say is contrary to their agenda, they will take down a post!
Well, according to a May 6, 2023 NYT opinion piece called “Few Are Addressing One of Social Media’s Greatest Perils”, the next tactic the liberals may use to discriminate against us and curtail our free speech is fear-inducing speech. Why? Because they claim that such speech may possibly lead people to commit acts of violence.
For example, if you preach against the LGBTQ agenda, they could accuse you of inducing fear, which in their view, could possibly lead someone to harm someone who is of that sexual persuasion. Thus, they will feel justified in removing your post. Now do you get it?
So be on the lookout for this new tactic, because it may be coming your way soon,. That is, if it hasn’t in fact already been implemented!
