    Not condoning it, but all I can think is how terrible Facebook is for “coordinating” stuff like this. I mean, if FB or the feds wanted to find out who these people are, track them down or something, they can do that pretty easily. People who do stuff like this aren’t too bright, though. So not surprised, I guess.

      I think free speech is really important. As soon as you start on the path of censorship you can’t stop.

      It starts with censorship of the extreme and ends with only a handful of allowed beliefs.

      It’s not even “tracking down”. It’s public information that is easily searchable. It should be easy to stay 2 steps ahead of these groups planning things out in the open.

      Yeah, something like Reddit or lemmy would be way better. Make a relatively obscure community with a dog whistle as a name. Anonymous, minimal moderation, and an amount of control to keep the group think in.

      But please, use Facebook.

      I only worry that FaceBook might actually cover for them and facilitate them. It’s not exactly a company known for outcomes of Peace and Respect for Human Rights.

        Well, at least in Brazil Meta has been very okay with following judicial orders and prevent anything that could get them in trouble. Telegram is the one recently covering up Nazi groups and school shooters here.
