Obama won't always be president and if conservatives get in charge, expect FB to be buddying up to the new regime by removing liberal posts and pages in the name of "security" instead of "hate speech" (both questionable concepts).
DoBA, I don't think they'll be removing liberal posts anytime soon no matter who is in power. Or anodynely conservative posts either. They'll still be white-knighting and doing the feminists' bidding, rain or shine. To the extent they might remove posts because of "security", I have a hard time believing any administration will be more draconian with respect to that than the current one.
With feminism ascendant, it was always going to be a tricky proposition to keep sites like RoK on Facebook. It's also true that posting articles that include "rape" in their title in any but the most obviously permissible way is baiting them and making it easier for them to make that decision.
RoK clearly has to balance the need for using colorful titles that attract page views with the need to avoid making more enemies than is strictly necessary. In my opinion, anything related to "rape" is an area where it would be smart to tread lightly because there is so much hysteria associated with this and such a high risk of antagonizing people with some actual power. It's fine and in fact necessary to post articles about the False Rape Accusation epidemic and about the abuse of this term by the feminist ideologues. But it's best to avoid seeming to make light of "rape" as such or writing things that can be twisted to be interpreted as condoning it in any way.
I believe Tuthmosis has really hit on a winning formula of writing RoK articles that are funny, accurate, annoy the hell out of feminists, but stop short of baiting the white-knights on hyper-serious bugaboos like "rape" or age of consent stuff, etc. That seems like a generally excellent template for RoK to follow.
