I got banned yesterday for quoting a nazi official on propaganda:
“Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred.”
- Joseph Goebbels
Yeah. Facebook fucking sucks.
Oh, the reason? Encourages danger and violence (which in their broad definition now includes quoting individuals who were associated to dangerous regimes). Welcome to the day and age in which another organization now decides you are dangerous and censors your presence from the internet independent of what you say.
- bvhg3 5y agoI don't use facebook but HN has censored many of my comments over the years and shadow-banned multiple accounts. Information is dangerous.
- SV_BubbleTime 5y agoI was banned from Facebook market place for selling a computer with a bad bitcoin joke in the description. Because the computer had an RTX3090 in it (surplus company PC) I wrote something like "Good for making dinosaurs launder money for you if you're into mining". Instant perm-ban. No appeal process possible. I'm too dangerous to be allowed to sell things. But I see literal insanity and extreme racism that is A-OK apparently. Just need to be careful who your target is, as per your quote.

- otterley 5y agoLet’s be fair here; quoting Goebbels is never a good idea unless you’re writing a history book or a research paper. If you don’t understand why, the problem is you, not Facebook.
