    A couple of weeks ago they put me in facebook jail for some cartoon I posted a few times several YEARS ago.

    trying-socialism.jpg

    They claimed it was against their policy on "self harm"

    I think they caught it about 4 or 5 times. On one of they they reversed the infraction saying "we made a mistake" but on the other ones they kept it even after I complained and pointed out it was a political cartoon about socialism and not suicide, and that they had already reversed the charge at least once. They wrote back saying they reviewed the report and were keeping the infraction.

    Then mysteriously when I checked today, all restrictions have disappeared, including their messages telling me I was in jail, and the report I made and their response. Hmmm.

    I think they have some idiotic AI moderators who obviously don't understand humor or subtext.

      Or knew full well what it was but used the claim it advocated self-harm as an excuse to shut down something they didn't like.

        I'll try to remember to post that one when I get out of jail -- after I post a crap-load of stuff by Rob Malone, Geert Vanden Bossche, Bret Weinstein, Alex Berenson...

          I am thinking they are using AI to do most of their moderation and that is why stuff like this keeps happening. But when you complain, you probably get a human and THEY are the ones who let the moderation stand because they are liberal weenies. Every once in a while you get someone who is actually trying to be fair and it gets reversed.

            I may also be in some kind of iCloud jail. Starting last weekend, my best friend has not received any of the emails I sent to her iCloud address. I suspect I'm being blocked.

              When it gets to human moderators, I’m betting there’s a bias toward whichever action takes less work.

                Turns out my emails are being sent to her Junk folder, and she doesn't want to bother trying to figure out why or to try to fix it.

                  I've got about another week or ten days on my sentence. I already have a few dozen tabs open with articles at Substack (Dr. Malone, Dr. Vanden Bossche, Alex Berenson), Turley, Daily Wire, and Not the Bee, waiting for me to post them to FB.

                  Probably won't be half a day 'til I'm back in stir, the clink, the hoosegow, the pokey,...

                    So Friday I got this message on Facebook:
                    ___, you have 30 days to take action.
                    Hi ___,Your Facebook account has been suspended. This is because some of your posts or comments don’t follow our Community Standards.
                    If you think we suspended your account by mistake, you have 30 days to disagree with our decision. If you miss this deadline your account will be permanently disabled.

                    No mention of what caused that or what I did. The only thing I can think of is maybe because I posted a photo of Hitler shaking his fists in response to a post showing Biden doing the same thing and asking "who does this remind you of: Hitler or Stalin?"

                    The same photos of BIden compared to Hitler are all over facebook and has gone viral and I see them all the time (I am currently using my dog Jake's facebook account) and they aren't being removed or banned.

                    Here is the original post's photo:

                        I use facebook to keep in touch with family and friends mostly. I hardly ever use it for political speech. It's a love-hate relationship. I hate facebook the company and the moderators, but I like being able to keep in touch with friends and family who are not easily accessible in real life.

                        If they ban me I might have to create another account just for that. If I could get my friends and family to go to another platform I would gladly give up facecrack.

                        It's been over a week and I have not heard anything from them yet.

                          So I did get banned on my facebook account. so I created a new one and decided to keep it simple and non political. Ha!!

                          So now I got a moderation on my new facebook page yesterday. Apparently claiming a Pizza is an open-face sandwich is too controversial and incites violence. No, really.

                          facebookalert - Copy.jpg

                          Can you imagine the uproar if I had said something like "Pineapple doesn't belong on pizza?"

                            Someone must be out to get rid of you. Are your posts being reported by somebody?

                            Is that Charlie Kirk? Maybe it’s his face that’s the problem.

                                Given how much totalitarians hate comedy they are likely cracking down on memes deemed to be "problematic".
