    As long as posts about mail order and telehealth services aren't taken down (a big if), I think I actually agree with taking down posts by individuals offering to buy people abortion pills - that seems unsafe in many ways. (How can you trust that person is giving you the correct drug? How do you know they won't just immediately report you for wanting to get an abortion in a state where it's banned?)

    The type of organizing some people are trying to do works best when it comes from already established and trusted groups that know how to do things more under the radar, not some random person posting publicly on Facebook.

    But the unequal enforcement of the rules is frustrating, to say the least. Failing to remove gun sales on Facebook seem much more dangerous.

      My feelings as well, and what tipped me to post it here. WTF is with the inconsistency in the enforcement?
