And Facebook wonders why their posters have become so toxic.

god help you if you post a meme though.

Had a friend get banned on valentines day for 30 days for posting a pink pic of Hitler with the quote 'Will you be Mein?'.

Algorithms do not understand sarcasm or subtilty. Wit is wasted on the witless.

Me too. That exact meme nailed me.

A friend of mine who lives in Poland posted a picture of the Polish Flag last week, with
some funny caption in Polish, and Facebook banned him for 24 hours due to 'hate speech', only to reverse it less then three hours later.

My friend was not amused, to say the least.

At this stage it's pretty much certain that Facebook is only capable of creating more negativity and that any positive social contributions from it are simply not possible. Expecting it to be otherwise is not logical or rational, even less so when the damn thing was created in the first place so Zuckerberg could publicly rate the quality of the asses of the girls on campus who wouldn't go out with him.

Meme in question

Snowflakes flip out at the very sight of a picture of Hitler or a swastika now, even when they see one in what is obviously a harmless joke. That's probably the reason why Facebook sets the system up to react with a ban, just so they don't have to deal with the caterwauling from a pack of SJW wimps. Which is odd they'd do that, considering they do absolutely nothing against real Nazis using their platform to assemble and spread real hate. Just more of their daily hypocrisy and non-stop bullshit routine I suppose.

Facebook has been autogenerating pages for white supremacists

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is testifying before Congress today, and he may have a few more uncomfortable questions to answer. Among them, why is Facebook autogenerating pages for white supremacist groups?

Researchers at the Tech Transparency Project found that Facebook created dozens of pages for groups like the “Universal Aryan Brotherhood Movement” when a user did something as simple as listing it as their employer. Some of the autogenerated pages garnered thousands of likes by the time they were discovered by researchers. TTP also discovered four Facebook groups that had been created by users. The researchers shared their findings with Facebook, which removed most of the pages. Yet, two of the autogenerated pages and all four Facebook groups remained active when the group published its findings.

Facebook reportedly banned “white nationalist” content following the 2019 mass shooting at a New Zealand mosque, expanding on an earlier ban of white supremacist content.

Snowflakes are freaking out about all sorts of insanity. A university professor was suspended last year because when he was speaking in Chinese, one of the words he said sounded like the N-word (but wasn't).
