I used the term “lesbian” in a comment on Facebook this week in a respectful and topical manner.
I received a notice that the comment was removed for violating community standards against “hate speech” and was told that’s my one warning for the next 12 months and any subsequent infringements would lead to a 24 hour ban. I used their process to disagree with the finding and they replied in a few minutes that they rejected my appeal.
- dublin 6y agoAnd now you're on double secret probation as one who has not only engaged in "hate speech", but had the temerity to protest their notice that you have been convicted and found guilty of hate speech.
- pmachinery 6y agoWhy do you think they removed your respectful comment and deemed it hate speech?
- fossuser 6y agoFacebook is actually a lot better than others on this issue: https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/02/men-are-scum-inside-facebook-war-on-hate-speech https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/02/men-are-scum-inside-... Obviously they can make mistakes, but I’d also be curious about your specific usage. Someone must have reported you.
