Seems from one of those articles that RT's stuff was banned by Facebook because the dismally low IQ Facebook algorithm thought the emaciated bodies with few cloths in Nazi concentration camps were NUDE and engaged in sexual activity: the ban was because the pictures did not comply with their "community standards" on "nudity and sexual activity".
ReplyDeleteStrangely enough, I'm in the middle of a one week Facebook ban for the same reason, only the offending picture / cartoon in my case was three blokes wearing just bathing trunks with their heads down each others' bathing trunks, and the caption was "Christians trying to explain the Holy Trinity". I.e., as in the case of RT, there was no nudity or sexual activity.
The moral is that if you want to avoid bans, you must bear in mind the EXTREME STUPIDITY of social media algorithms and the people working for social media. E.g. don't put the word "Muslim" and "stupid" in the same Tweet even if your intention is quite obviously not to suggest Muslilms are stupid. They'll assume that because the words Muslim and stupid are in the same tweet that therefor you're staying Muslims ARE stupid.
I had a similar experience, Ralph. I post a daily quote on perennial wisdom to a Facebook group, Beads On One String. One of the quotes — I can't recall now what is was — got rejected "for violating community standards." I examined the quote closely to see what they could possibly be objecting to. Nothing came up and I am still puzzled. They offered a choice between agree and not agree and I selected not agree. They returned, we will forward it to our team for assessment and adjustment. Never heard anything back. And the quote never got posted. Lame.
ReplyDeleteThat's what you get for being on Facepalm.
