Does instagram really let the hateposts like the top one fly?

Can we find the person who posted it and beat the shit out of them? I know, I know, I'm just doing internet tough guy right now, but I really am sick of all these hateful assholes making the world worse. They post who they are under their real name! Burn their house down!

Facebook now has a carve out in their anti-bigotry rules that specifically declares it okay to call trans people mentally sick.

Burn the whole thing down and start from scratch.

Where can this carve-out be found? I looked at their Code of conduct for bullying and harassment and did notice that harassment related to gender only seems to be protected for "private minors" and not for adults.

Yup, I was looking in the wrong section. This will make great ammunition when convincing people not to use Meta services.

We do allow allegations of mental illness or abnormality when based on gender or sexual orientation, given political and religious discourse about transgenderism and homosexuality
