I fucking hate all meta platforms now. I've been on Facebook since the day it went public (allowing anyone to join instead of just college students) and it's just a nazi recruitment platform now. There is not accountability for bad behaviour, in fact they reward trolls and punish people for dairing to defend themselves.
If I'm harrassed it doesn't go against community standards but if I defend myself I get banned for 30 days for bullying.
It's fucked up and it's deliberate. I've actually gotten a ban for two emojis ๐๐ญ got me a ban but bigotry and hate speech are a ok. Ironically even Jewish people aren't safe on meta platforms. Antisemitic behaviour is rampant, even way before the Gaza war so its not people who give a shit about Palestine.
I don't know, man, if you got banned from Facebook for calling somebody a cocksucker, it sounds like they are trying to hold right wingers accountable.
No, they really aren't. You can't go onto any page run by or made for a minority group without constant nazi level hate and yet Facebook does nothing. If however you defend yourself you get banned for bullying. They enjoy causing harm to vulnerable communities because they like to make money and don't care who gets hurt as long as ad revenue keeps rolling in.
They specifically have hate speech as a reportable offence and do absolutely zero about all forms of hate speech. I've reported people calling others fรรรรร and they've done nothing. I don't even think they believe nรรรรร is offensive.
You didn't get the joke.
You are complaining that meta refuses to ban bigots, but aknowledge you arent allowed on the site for calling people cocksuckers.
