Yeah, its hard to believe anything you see on line these days for sure

If it's inside a private FB group, unless they're planning to do something outside of it, seems a bit silly to go based on posts inside of it trying to make it news.. do we now start reporting on all the weird things that get said privately. Where would that stop?

If it were posts of ex members with social commentary, then that might be the story (how noteworthy is the question), not a single random screenshot.

I do have some personal experience with fancy rules especially with onboarding. Imo, these rules are meant to cull membership and have people self select out. Of recent, I was trying to post in a group for my daughters activities. It wasn't a political group but when joining you have to answer questions, usually just to confirm you are not a bot. On the questionnaire we had to look up a random book that was Antiracist propaganda and put that in. On another one of them I had to look up black inventions that were stolen, completely unrelated to the group. So I self-selected myself out, which is the actual point of these kinds of rules I think.

If it sounds unnecessarily divisive then likely, yes... that's the point, I think.
