If you think that the Microsoft-owned social media platform LinkedIn is just about professional and business connections with no politics, you would be wrong.

My second run-in with LinkedIn censors in as many months occurred recently, when they removed a post linking to a new CO2 Coalition paper on global temperatures. According to LinkedIn, the post was removed because it “goes against our Professional Community Policies.”
