Facebook's censorship board member said Cross's in public places violated human rights

One of the members, Andras Sajo, of the newly created Facebook oversight board ruled that crosses in public schools in Italy violated the European Convention on Human Rights.

That's right.  In a country famous for its Catholicity it's a violation of human rights to have crosses in public school rooms.

While one could argue separation of Church and State it would require an amazing level of bigotry or intellectual dishonesty to say that a cross in a classroom violates human rights?

What right; the right to not have to see something you don't like?

I don't know any sane Christian who would declare that public schools in Saudi Arabia having some Muslim religious symbol would violate the human rights of Christian students.

Turns out Sajo, and 9 other members of the team, which only consists of 20 people, have close ties to George Soros. You know George he's the Nazi collaborator who helped loot the belongings of Jews who were sent to concentration camps.

What's really interesting is that it appears, based on the fact that the 20 people speak 29 languages and have lived in 27 countries, that the most of the members on the board don't come from the US.  While Facebook serves people around the world it is an American company which enjoys significant protections because of that.

But more importantly the 1st Amendment and the idea that speech we don't like is legal is pretty much a uniquely American concept these days.  Which means these new censors will tend to be of the opinion that if speech offends people it should be censored.

Given that they're all radical leftists they will tend to be offended by the truth which means they'll probably be gung ho for censoring anything that contradicts the official lies published by leftists world wide.

They'll be cool with the lies of the Chinese Communist government while condemning Trump for pointing out facts that they don't like.

This is why Facebook has to be legally declared to be a publisher not a platform.
