Are we supposed to meekly accept the dumbing down of the population. I can understand ignoring typos and spellings, many are hard to catch by proofreading if the type is small. But misuse of words, their/there, for example, is illiterate, and inexcusable. And shorthand in notes, such as "u" is just dumb. I have seen people refuse to use punctuation, making their posts unreadable, then take offense when someone criticizes them.

Facebook is already doing this in the USA. Monitors arbitrarily decide what is bad or not.
Instead of the government censoring our comments, private industry will be forced to do it. 1984 is coming.
