This will always always be weaponized against us.

To take a very small example, FB introduced certain content rules to prevent abuse and harassment. A friend of mine (BIPOC, leftist) was just banned for 24 hours for calling a pro-convoy plague enthusiast a "stupid ratlicker." Which is objectively true, not harassment.

Similarly, money monitoring will likely be used not so much to stop foreign-funded insurrections but community defence funding.

And there are stirrings on social media to organize a similar truck rally for Washington, DC.
