My friend's flyer got taken down for 'inciting debate' at our state school
He wanted to put up a simple flyer last Thursday for a discussion on free speech itself, just asking 'What can't we talk about here?'. Campus staff removed it within 2 hours, saying it was 'unapproved content likely to incite debate'. It was literally about having a conversation, lol. Has anyone else had something this basic get shut down for just asking a question?

Wait, isn't the whole point of a school to have debates? I used to think campus rules were just about keeping things orderly, but seeing stuff like this makes me question it. If a flyer asking about free speech gets pulled for starting debate, what's even allowed anymore? That's just backwards.

Honestly, what if the rules aren't about order but about avoiding bad press?
