I got hit with a 30-day ban just for posting a list of Metallica albums.
I didn't consider the fact that one of the albums titles has the word kill in it and that's what got me flagged. It's all done by bots so there are no actual human beings you can appeal it to and they don't take context into consideration have you had similar experiences getting suspended from Facebook for no good reason?

I get that a private owned Media company can filter content at their own discretion but they're getting ridiculous suspending people for petty irrelevant stuff

I've never had a facebook account, but I am thankful there is Facebook. It has brought me much entertainment over the last few years. :giggle:

Ha, ha. Finally getting a taste of your own medicine, maybe? Experiencing what some of us have experienced on multiple anti-free-speech platforms for years, if not decades?

Eh, it's the price we as a society pay for the systems we have supported over the decades.

Yeah we're not going to do this here you're trying to compare Alex Jones defaming grieving families to my posting and innocent list of Metallica albums. I will put you on ignore. We're not doing that

Have you considered the fact that the curvature of the earth might be flat?
This would explain why A.I. is going haywire.

This isn't the first time I've been zuched for a comment taken out of context. They just need to upgrade their bots to read the context instead of just flagging keywords

Why do you presume that your Metallica albums be more innocent than Alex Jones?

Because to my knowledge Metallica never slandered or defamed anyone. Alex Jones did. My question back to you would be why do you think it's morally acceptable for someone to slander and defame grieving families?

Because if an accusation is true, it's not slander or defamation.

Remember the Johnny Depp show trial, where that mean lady had slandered him in public, and she was trying to prove in court how evil Johnny Depp really was? Truth matters.

It is all fine and dandy to love our enemies but there is a line drawn between loving them and approving of their activities. when they are sin.

He said the families of shooting victims lied about the deaths of their children.
They didn't. It really happened

Also we've been over this numerous times on the other thread. Even though Sandy Hook is a small town, just try to get 500 people to keep a secret.
Also the police department would have to be in on it, the coroner, the funeral home, the local newspapers, that's not something that happens in reality.
