note facebook still hasn't engaged directly with banned orgs or users, they only responded to financial times.
large anarchist pages were banned a while back and were not able to get a similar reversal, despite some media attention. twitter has taken action recently as well.
interestingly, left and anarchist pages tend to be banned only when furor/sentiment rises high against right-wing pages, and the bans seem to be done symmetrically to reduce perceptions of bias. for example crimethinc was knocked down same time as proud boys groups.

- ruined 6y agoanarchists are under no such illusions. it's always been illegal to be an anarchist. only people who believe they deserve power are confused when power is used against them. it's understood that centralized platforms will continue to experience controversy and censorship until most people give up and move to federated and resistant media.
