There’s a lot happening in the news right now, but I can’t post about it on Facebook because the automatic monitoring system flagged the following post as against community standards:
Yeah, I was suspended from FB for describing the historical founding of Nazi Germany, the rise of the Gestapo, and the parallels to modern times that was relevant in a Heather Cox Richardson post. No explanation. So, I found Substack as a place where honesty can reign in her posts and yours.
Facebook's decision-making on what it takes down and what it refuses to remove is a joke. After yesterday's Joe Rogan statement, the antisemites again crawled out from under the rocks and I proceeded to report numerous vile Jew-hatred comments. None, of course, have been removed since, I am told, they did not violate Facebook's standards, whatever they are.
I got suspended fot citing historical information about Nazis. This creature gets away with saying anything she wants. As someone pointed out, if anyone behaved the way she does in a corporate environment, they'd be fired.
Jay, speaking of the balloon.... What I'd like to know if the intelligence it was gathering was being transmitted back to China at all, or was China expecting to collect the physical object at a later time and download it? No reports have addressed that that I've seen.
I’d heard one news report that transmissions from the balloon (if any) were being blocked.
Which we really shouldn’t need a news report to tell us. The current administration isn’t incompetent like the farmer one which allowed three balloons to cross United States largely undetected.
So of COURSE, any transmissions from the balloon would be being blocked.
Of COURSE they would be planning to get rid of it whether by shooting down or other appropriate means.
Of COURSE they were going to deal with it in a way that prevented risk to Americans (waiting until it was over water) and provide the most benefit for our intelligence community (downing it at a time and place where it could be recovered).
And, of COURSE, despite all this being obvious the childish, immature, terrified of their own shadows Republicans freaked out.
I seem to remember hearing that at one point but it's not been mentioned again (that I've seen), despite all the bellyaching the Rs have done about it. If transmissions were blocked, why isn't that being emphasized? It makes me curious, is all. And it might not be a bad thing for people to delete TicTok after all. Who knows what they're picking up?
Christopher, you are too kind by describing Republicans today as "childish, immature, terrified of their own shadows...." They are all for grandstanding with evil intent ever since they became the majority in the House! Just wait a little longer for those loyal Republicans to get destructive to our country with their Congressional findings as domestic terrorist leader Trump starts to instruct them how to behave in Facebook and Twitter posts.
Without the 'Gotcha' mentality and manufactured Outrage of the Rs, they have no other reason for being. (They're the Gotcha Outrage Party, get it?). :-)
“They are all for grandstanding with evil intent ever since they became the majority in the House!”
If you’re referring to last month, you’re grossly underestimated the time period by decades. If you’re referring to back in the Newt Gingrich era, then you may be right. 
The only agenda Republicans have had for at least three decades, and probably a couple more beyond that, has been to lie, accuse, grandstand, lie, cover up crimes, and destroy democracy.
I feel that the original description is more and more true these days. The MAGA’s are loosing their edge, politically speaking, more and more every day.
Of course trumplethinskin keeps trying, and is succeeding somewhat, with his hardcore followers. But overall, every time one of them throws a tantrum on a national public forum (such as MTG) I hear another on the edge R drop off their radar.
There are worse places to be suspended from. Just out your phone down for a bit and take Hudson for a tour of PV so she can get fussed over by people and get fed treats.
Yup. Back in the day, I suggested that Senate Democrats should consider ending the filibuster. Except I didn't use the word "ending." The word I used begins with K and rhymes with dill. I nearly got permanently banned for "promoting violence." That's probably what your suspension is for.
I also was locked out of fb for sharing a meme showing the thump baby balloon and the caption said 'shoot it down.' FB said I was promoting violence and property damage... lol. I've never been so proud!
It has to be a single word or something the AI finds objectionable. On Twitter, a few of my tweets get thrown in drafts while hateful and truly nasty tweets are allowed. It's like trying to understand time travel (for me anyway) what is acceptable and what isn't.
I don't get how this gets you Facebook jail yet so many posts ticking all of their boxes on hate speech (minus the violence) for gay or trans people that I've reported are somehow ok.
And yet actual neo-nazi propaganda casually slides on by without a second glance from FB lol

Heather is a true Treasure and I Subscribe to her (and here).
OH FFS! Their algorithms are way past ridiculous.

“If transmissions were blocked, why isn't that being emphasized?”
Because Democrats overwhelmingly SUCK at a) pointing out the good things they do and b) calling Republicans out on their shit.
What they are immensely good at is sitting back, and letting Republicans lie unopposed and set the narrative.

“Just wait a little longer for those loyal Republicans to get destructive to our country”
Your suggesting that they haven’t been destructive yet. That it hasn’t yet started. That it hasn’t been going on for decades.
And you’re saying I’m being too kind to them?

I left a message on your FB page in answer to your request, telling your fb readers you've been banned again. Hope they see it. 😳
I just did the same.
I can't even see his profile anymore. Didn't even know he was back on FB
FB so called “community standards “ are completely arbitrary and ridiculous.
Yup. Back in the day, I suggested that Senate Democrats should consider ending the filibuster. Except I didn't use the word "ending." The word I used begins with K and rhymes with dill. I nearly got permanently banned for "promoting violence." That's probably what your suspension is for.
Same thing, same word and reason. 3 days no posting or comment, 1 weeks no likes and 2 weeks no group posting and 30 days lowered in feed.
I had just asked my husband ‘Has Jay said anything about the subpoena?’ Thanks for posting here!
I also was locked out of fb for sharing a meme showing the thump baby balloon and the caption said 'shoot it down.' FB said I was promoting violence and property damage... lol. I've never been so proud!
I've been banned about 3 times - mostly in 2021.
It has to be a single word or something the AI finds objectionable. On Twitter, a few of my tweets get thrown in drafts while hateful and truly nasty tweets are allowed. It's like trying to understand time travel (for me anyway) what is acceptable and what isn't.
I shared this to a private FB group, in part to see if I'll get the ban hammer as well.
I don't get how this gets you Facebook jail yet so many posts ticking all of their boxes on hate speech (minus the violence) for gay or trans people that I've reported are somehow ok.
Facebook sure is stupid! Old Zuck needs to quit playing favorites with the likes of MTG !!
