Facebook censors user for posting about transgenderism being a mental illness: A Twitter user shared screenshots of her Facebook censorship notice. She posted: "gender identity isn't a real thing something gay people made up to try and make their choice acceptable to go inside with their mental illness. Sexual orientation means having a choice which again relates to mental thinking so therefore it's included with a mental illness. Gender identity isn't real you're either a man or woman not what you think you are because again you'd have to think of the concept this is what I am therefore it's a mental illness. Facebook claimed this violated its Community Standards on hate speech and inferiority, and deleted the comment. The platform also restricted the user's account for an unknown period of time.
