Freedom of Speech
-
I have some questions regarding the current political climate:
Apple banned Parler from their App Store.
I am planning to move my community off Facebook due to their Censorship of Speech and Outrageous Ignorance of Versatile Voices.
I use wordpress.org, but found no support channel.
1. Where does WordPress stand politically?
2. Are they accepting Apple’s horrendous Abuse of Power?
3. Do they allow Freedom of Speech on your platform?
I understand that they have an enormous pressure, as a social platform.
They have the ability to become the Safe Haven for Free Speech.
It will take huge courage from them.
We have to recognize that we are in the start phases of a Digital War, and wars demand sacrifices.
I totally understand if they want to stand with Apple, but I need to know what the future holds. So I can build my community on a platform where my tribe’s voices won’t be silenced.
I appreciate if you could get back to me, as soon as possible. Time is of the essence.
Thanks in advance

Hi there,
WordPress is a piece of free, open source software anyone can download and host on their own servers, to use for whatever purpose they want. It’s not an organisation, and thus can’t stand for anything.
The forum you’re posting in now is for the hosting provider, WordPress.com. We fully support freedom of speech, but we do have restrictions on the types of content we allow on our platform. You can see our terms of service and user guidelines here:
We do not discuss terms of service issues in our public forums, so I’m closing this thread to further replies.
