I’m not everybody’s cup of tea.
Wait. I didn’t learn that while in Facebook Jail. I already knew that no one is everyone’s cup of tea, and not all personalities mesh before Zuckercorn’s moneymaker put me in time out. People like different types of music, food, movies, and most importantly to this piece, jokes.
People find different things funny.
So if you don’t find what I’m about to post amusing, that’s OK.
But, is what I’m about to post so horrific that it warrants an entire website to protect users from it? Facebook says the picture you’re about to see violates their “Community Standards.”
Those standards include a laundry list of things that make sense including (but not limited to):
- Violence and Criminal Behavior
- Credible Violence
- Integrity and Authenticity
- Coordinating Harm
However, there’s an item near the bottom of their list that stands out:
- Objectionable Content
The problem with calling something “objectionable” is that everyone objects to something.
Or, said slightly differently, everyone is offended by something.
There are the things we should all object to: racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia… But when you get into policing content, there are problems. some people are offended by nudity, others are not. Some people have a dark sense of humor, others do not.
And so on down the line.
People are different.
I was banished for the following photo.
Is it objectionable content? Facebook says so, but without giving reason. It doesn’t contain violence, hateful language, or nudity (male chest aside, which is so innocuous it can be shown in a G-Rated Disney movie).
There is a joke in there, yes, and maybe you personally don’t like the subject matter. But is it more objectionable than, say, Alex Jones? He has a Facebook page, and I find it hard to find a single thing he says that isn’t just plain awful.
Likewise ISIS.
A May 6, 2018 report on Gizmodo points out that terrorists still use Facebook to coordinate with one another. Likewise white supremacists, and other hate groups. They’re all on Facebook, while I was booted for a joke.
And, mind you, not a joke at anyone’s expense.
This wasn’t an attack on a religion or group; this wasn’t anything hateful that then tries to get explained away with the eye-rolling response, “It was just a joke.” If it had been an attack, or at the expense of a race, religion, gender, or orientation, then you cannot explain it away with “Lighten up, it was just a joke.”
That doesn’t work.
This is simply about taste: some people will find it amusing, others will not. When you censor taste/preference, you’re heading into dangerous territory.
Right now, Facebook is spending millions of dollars to advertise that it’s “returning to what made Facebook great in the first place.” All this comes on the heels of the Cambridge Analytica scandal, where it was exposed that Facebook isn’t really about connecting people, it’s about collecting data, and selling said data.
Here’s the problem with Facebook’s return to “awesome:” everyone on Facebook is a user, not a customer.
That’s an important distinction.
Customers receive customer service; they have a say in where they take their business. Facebook, on the other hand, actively does not want to hear from users. In fact, they have absolutely zero in the way of customer service. Facebook has no 800 number, no chat function, no anyone on standby to answer questions or field complaints. Zuckercorn and his crew don’t have to answer to anyone; the site is unregulated, and is allowed to operate carefree.
They exist to sell data to advertisers, and it is our decision to use their platform.
Again, important distinction: a platform we use.
We don’t purchase Facebook, we use it. Under Facebook’s terms, rules, and regulations.
So if you need help, you can file a request, but it will go unread. I sent three requests asking for clarification regarding my banishment. It’s been over 30 days, and I have yet to receive a response.
Here’s an example of how poorly Facebook “customer service” works.
Like anyone, I receive numerous fake friend requests over the course of a year. I’ll click on them to see if they’re real people, and the first thing I’ll see is a picture of a scantily-clad woman with the text “Click HERE to see my REAL pics.”
There’s always a link to pornography.
I used to report these profiles. They clearly violate the Facebook terms of service and content codes, and I don’t like spam friend requests from pornbots. When I’d get a request, I’d click a couple of buttons and sic the Facebook Police on them.
I stopped reporting those profiles, however, because Facebook kept finding them legitimate.
My inbox currently has a half-dozen automated messages that state as much. “We looked over the profile you reported, and though it doesn’t go against one of our specific Community Standards, we understand that the profile or something they shared may still be offensive to you.”
The message always goes on to explain how if I don’t want to see the porn that fake profile is spamming, I can block it.
So, when handed pornography on a platter, when a red flag is raised and waved in front of their face, “Hey, this is porn. Right here, on your site,” the Facebook Police demur to act. If people note that a raving lunatic is saying Sandy Hook was a hoax, that’s “their right to free speech.”
But if someone reports a joke because they don’t like it, Facebook springs into action and I get banned.
I said everyone is offended by something, and that’s what offends me: double standards and hypocrisy.
I’m offended by a platform that uses the phrase “Objectionable Content” as an umbrella term. “Objectionable” becomes a replacement term for “I don’t like that,” which is capricious at best, and controlling at worst. That’s what offends me.
That, and, of course the lack of any user support or customer service.
So, what did I learn while banished?
I discovered that I didn’t miss Facebook all that much.
Oh, I’m not going to get all huffy and say I’ll never use the platform again, and that being off Facebook made me a better person, that I lost twenty pounds and cured cancer. That’s nonsense usually spewed by blowhards.
I simply discovered that the further I got away from Facebook, the less I cared about it.
And that should frighten Zuckercorn.
Not the idea of him losing me, specifically, but the thought people can discover they can spend less time on his platform and be OK with it.
The more people banned by the Facebook police, becomes fewer normal users of the platform. After we’re gone, all that’ll be left are ISIS, Alex Jones, and white supremacists.
What a great place Facebook will be then.
UPDATE: This news article hit the web several hours after I posted my blog. Turns out I’m not alone. My blog is nothing, but $16 billion? Zuckercorn will notice that, I’m sure.
Enjoy my rambling?
Can you post this – sans photo, of course – on FB? Ok if I mention this, ironically, on my FB?
This is how revolutions begin.
Thank you.
Done and done.
:)

Well…. I just received a 30 day ban for posting a picture of the Brady Bunch family portrait which showed Cindy Bradley with a KKK hood over her head……
Well that seems unfair. But, then again, when has Facebook ever been fair?
I want to know where I go to find how much time I have left to serve.
Just like a post and it tells you that you are blocked from using that function and then it tells you how many days you have left
I was put in fb jail for 30 days sharing an existing post on someone’s fb page!!! I was immediately notified that what I posted was against their standard regardless of the fact the post was shared from an existing post. Seems to me entrapment or selective jail time for certain people.
Facebook really is the worst. I’m in Facebook Jail AGAIN, because I was discussing video games with friends, and Grand Theft Auto Vice City came up.
Facebook extrapolated a comment out of context and banned me.
Their algorithm blows, and they have zero customer service.
And, for the record, I have gotten in trouble for EXACTLY what you described: sharing an already posted post.
I said Cruz was garbage and got put in fb jail
But…Hundreds of people are talking about slapping the girl Greta for being the new face of climate change but that’s OK
Facebook is owned by Russia
Facebook is owned by greed more than anything.
But you’re right: if you talk about assaulting a 16-year-old girl, that’s A-OK on Facebook. Point out that a political hack and horrible human being (Cruz) is garbage, and away you go.
I was banned today for defending my self from a woman who thinks trump is the best. I said for her to take her broom and fly away to fox news Facebook and lol she reported me and I got Facebook jail for 6 days.
Completely absurd that someone with hurt feelings can get someone else banned. If it’s harassment, sure. But for a simple comment? JFC.
I know the feeling. I’m a US Army veteran of 15 years so I’m quite certain that I’ve earned my educated opinion and my right to support a presidential candidate. I was lambasted by a communist, wind sucking low life bernie sanders supporter for supporting this American president. When I responded to her telling me that “you should do us a favor and slit your wrists”, I told her that I don’t dabble in demoKKKrat activities and that she should go first. I got banned for 30 days. Fascistbook is nothing but a leftwing propaganda mill full of fake news and commie BS. People like you are allowed to bash this president and we’re not allowed to comment back without repercussions. At the end of the day, you’re whining for nothing. Zuckerfag is your homeboy. Because he’s a leftwing fascist his lopsided political platform has been allowed. I think the FCC should remove it. I served and swore an oath to defend YOUR right to free speech but apparently that ideal is not reciprocated. This is why I support Donald Trump and as an EX democrat will NEVER EVER vote for another demokkkrat for as long as I live. Enjoy your identity politics now because this garbage political environment is about to turn on you. The weaponized media who now seems to be on your side will soon turn on you. MSNBC, ABC and CNN ratings are all in the gutter. People gravitate towards the truth and away from these networks for good reason. Enjoy the fodder while it’s seemingly in your favor. The media is going full George Orwell “1981”. Big Brother is all yours and soon. I’ll be joining in the fight against it. Hope you’re not in the way!. Fascistbook is on your side you dumb oompa loompa. Enjoy!
I had my post flagged on FB Marketplace because I was trying to sell old dishware.
Part of the message they sent to me was “prohibited items include drugs, firearms, live animals”…
ITS DISHWARE *punches wall* YOU IDIOTS.
And of course there was no way to appeal this process.
Maybe Facebook will be forced to get their crap in gear if they get enough bad publicity for things like this.
Dude, exact same thing happened to my wife. She was selling clothes. Shorts for a four-year-old boy. No markings on them, just plain shorts, and she got the same message.
Un-be-fucking-lieveable.
I totally agree with you..I’m currently in fb jail at the mo for a pic I put on in fun straight away deleted 7 day ban not the 1st time mind you. FB says there is a appeal form you can fill in but every time you try and go there its says theres a broken link and cant get on it so what’s the point…can you tell me why fb allows pics or videos of young girls been stoned to death or set on fire People be mutilated animal cruelty Youre right in saying its double-standards but you can-do anything about because they dont allow you to complain so yes I agree with everything you have said well done.
Thanks for the kind words. I have a friend who just got a stern warning about appropriate language, because she was talking about the BAND Cracker on Facebook. They removed her post and said some bullshit about “hate speech” and Facebook being a “Safe Space.”
My cousin keeps getting thrown in Facebook Jail for posting pictures of the American Flag and saying “God Bless America”. Apparently, Facebook is anti-America
What’s funny is: as you wrote your comment, I was in Facebook Jail again myself.
One of my black friends posted something I found funny, so I said so on his post, and I referred to the people he was making fun of as “white trash.”
Well, that got Facebook’s algorithm all upset, and I was told that using “white trash” constitutes hate speech.
Yup.
That is hate speech. Would it be ok to say ‘black trash’? Of course not.
Lol, you’re hilarious.
They are getting beyond ridiculous. I got put in Facebook jail for 3 days for using the word tranny.. really friggin tranny. I heard Mark Zuckerberg like to put people in Facebook jail and then rape them in the shower. LOL.
I hear you. I was just banned for 30 days for calling someone “tater head.” It would be funny if it weren’t so pathetic. I have two accounts and I’m going to delete both of them….see how things work out. I’m frigging sick of FB allowing racist rants and memes, violence, adult and child porn, white supremacy, etc., when I get busted for calling someone “tater head.” I also got busted for saying “white trash”, and once for reposting a meme.
Oh yeah… I got a several day ban for “white trash” as well. Facebook has the idea that the best kind of enforcement is arbitrary and heavy-handed. It’s bullshit.
I am currently serving a 30-day jail sentence for the using the words: “White trash.” But I have seen countless hateful and racist rants.
Yup. They flagged whiskey-tango a while ago. Because white people are such touchy little snowflakes.
You are clearly a racist. You should be banned permanently from Facebook.
Lol, thanks Patrick! Usually the stupidest thing I see every day is a Tweet by Donald Trump, but you topped that this morning! Well done!
I’m banned and have no idea why. Can’t sign on or even look at it. And I can’t even ask them why. I think I have a few liberal trolls who reported me for posting conservative posts. None are hateful, or rude, or offensive. (Well, maybe it offended them just because I love Trump) I’ve been in jail twice for 24 hrs. Just couldn’t post. This time, I can’t even sign into it. Not sure if it’s temp or permanent.
Well, if you can’t sign in, that sounds like a glitch. When you’re in Facebook jail, you’re allowed to sign in, but right away you get a notice stating that while you can look at things, you’re not allowed to comment or like anything. Did you get that notification when you did get your 24-hour bans? Because if you didn’t get one this time, then it’s probably just Facebook being stupid.
All I can say is fuck Mark Zuckerberg.
I don’t think anyone can disagree with that assessment.
I’m so tired of being banned for photos that Facebook says had sexual content. I post them to a private group, but I have fought many of them and some they say they were wrong but they don’t take away the violation. Right now I have 30 day ban. Where do you think I ding this stuff on Facebook. Ugh! It’s really ridiculous.
That’s the worst… sharing something already on Facebook, and being told you’re the one in the wrong.
Got banned for using my business name. Mind you, it has my real name in it too. Plus my real email. Can’t even access my fan/business account either It’s all under review but it doesn’t say how long it will be.
Ugh, sorry to hear it. When they say “under review,” they mean “it’s on the backburner, and we’ll get to it when we get to it. Right now we’re busy selling your information to advertisers.”
Best of luck to you; this has to suck.
I said “white trash cousin” and got flagged. Banned for 30 days for it being my second time to use it. Never mind that my WT cousins say “nig—-” (but they spell it out) and share porn
Jesus. Zuckercorn’s crack team of shitheads really all deserve severe cases of anal warts.
facebook jail situation can be avoided if users take care of what they post to share , keep eye on the content of the post and don’t post so rapidly
Lol, not true, but thanks for trying.
Nope. Not in my case. I’ve reported so much hate, porn, animal abuse, racist and such. Never goes against “standards”. I tell a creep to pull his pants back up and I am in trouble? Ugh.
Sexism at its finest. Way to go, Facebook.
I am currently in FB jail for posting a meme that was already approved by FB and is still on my feed. I appealed twice and told them it was already approved and pointed out where it was on my timeline, but no go. I can’t even tell how long I am in jail for. I don’t get any message when I log in but if I try to do anything, a message pops up that more time has been added to my sentence. I also discovered another similar website called MeWe.com. Not as many users of course but looks a lot like facebook without the bullshit. I created an account there and will be encouraging my thousands of friends and followers to do the same.
Facebook really is the worst. But, like I said, they have no accountability, because it’s a free service. Technically, we pay THEM via our data.
I’m in Facebook jail for Calling someone with a fake troll Profile stupid who called me stupid first !
Yup. That’s how it works. The site is completely arbitrary.
so minutes before i was blocked the strangest thing happened.
facebook asked me to do a Survey on how i think they treat there users. it was at the very top of my news feed or wall what ever they are calling it now days.
Video here: https://www.facebook.com/100014003986307/posts/759679984508794
after i sent in the survey minutes later i got this “You’re temporarily restricted from joining and posting to groups that you do not manage until November 16 2019 at 1:56am”
no where on the page do i recall it saying the survey was Confidential to not share or talk about it.
so after i got my account restricted for 1 week and could not Share, Post, Comment on Groups, nor Live Stream, i started to ask my self “what did i do wrong?” i cant think of anything i could have done other then that survey…
but then i got to thinking about the Review i left for a Vending Company where i live on how i got proof the device scammed me and took my money i had a video, debit card transaction proof and phone call proof let alone proof after i left the review they changed there user name which I TOOK OVER so when people google there facebook it goes to me and then this all happen… so its one or the other… its sad companies can screw us like this with no accountability & have the power to do as they want with no over sight or control.
I was selling an Elf on the shelf on one of the selling pages, i then got this message
Hello,
You’ve been temporarily blocked from posting on Facebook because you posted something that infringed someone else’s intellectual property rights.
This block is temporary and expires in three days.
If you continue to post content that infringes or violates others’ rights or otherwise violates the law, you could have your account permanently disabled.

Thanks,
The Facebook team
that was nearly a week ago and I still cant get on or contact them to get it sorted
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: the worst part about Facebook is their complete lack of interest in any form of customer service. They are in charge, and there’s nothing their users can do whenever a decision has been made. No matter how shitty that decision was.
I think if they’re going to take the time or have a bot or whatever take the time to ban people then what they could try instead is removing the content they don’t like or think is offensive and if they have to do it 5 or 6 times or whatever then ban the person. Because then people who are seriously trying to be offensive will eventually give up or get what they deserve and innocent people thinking they’re posting an innocent joke or saying will be able to reevaluate what fb constitutes being against community standards and giving them a chance without making a mistake and being banned for 30 days going back up and making another mistake and being banned for another 30 days. Or ban them for an or day because you don’t need 30 days to figure this stuff out when you’re sincere about following community standards. .
This is so very true! I’ve actually watched porn, hard core porn scrolling through my feed, I mean nothing left to the imagination…I reported it and got the exact same message, “.does not violate “ blah, blah, blah! I think this is my 5th or 6th time I’ve been busted, it’s disgusting. A total a## had been attacking my post all week, I told him he was an obsequious sycophant…and boom, I was banned, 7 days! I’m sick if it snd have started using other SM…but this is absurd. Ppl get upset with your opinion and report you and you’re banned from 1 day to 30 and then permanently! This must change, no more favoritism, politics and shut down all the Republican lies!
Last night I had a friend text me that he’d just been put on a 24-hour ban. What did he do? He posted the Time Magazine cover that listed Hitler as “Man of the Year.” Facebook saw Hitler and banned him. They didn’t/don’t care about context, they just ban.
Unless it’s porn.
That is apparently fine to Facebook.
It’s so stupid.
Facebook is a useless, controlling, oppressive piece of shit. If I could punch Zuckerberg in the face I would without question. So my birthday is today, already have people leaving timeline comments, will 0probably get messages from people, and since I’m banned for 30 days (expires March 25th), I can’t like or reply back to any comments, I can’t message them back, so it just seems like I’m ignoring everybody and coming off like a complete asshole, which I’m not. I’ve already had people message me and I’m unable to message them back and will continue to be unable to message them back so they’re probably thinking “fuck you”, which affects friendships a lot. Why was I banned? Because I made a post saying “I have some good porn saved “, which wasn’t the issue. Had a Facebook friend comment to share them, told him I couldn’t, another friend told me to search these keywords in the video segment of Facebook, and, hilariously, there’s actual Japanese porn posted, just free to be there. I have no issues with it because I’m not a sensitive, butthurt, anti-porn and anti-sex piece of judgmental shit. So I then say I’ll stick to my websites because they’re better and give one site without a .com or anything, okay cool, he commented saying so and so site is better, I then type a small list of sites without any direct links, without any .com’s or .net’s, just the names of them and 2 minutes later I’m banned for 30 days and he tells me in another account that I made that he’s never even seen the comment. So what is the point of removing a comment and banning someone? Either keep my comment up so people can see why I got banned or don’t ban me. If you’re going to ban someone for however long, at least flag the initial post or their account with something stating this user is banned for x long, so Facebook doesn’t ruin friendships and connections by thinking we’re going around ignoring everyone. I made 3 different alternative accounts, each one banned again. Really, fuck Facebook and their controlling, narcissistic, sensitive, immoral, anti-freedom, oppressive bullshit. Zuckerberg just has a face I want to smack the shit out of. This ordeal just makes me hate and loath Zuckerberg with a passion now. So porn videos can be actually posted on the videos section and nothing. I can see people posting half-naked women (again, I don’t care, I actually enjoy it because I’m not a sensitive fruit), nothing happens. I see people post whole porn links, nothing happens. I get a comment on my own post with a website name, nothing happens. But I make a small list of other website names and automatically banned. This isn’t the first time a post got taken down, I don’t know if it’s my first time banned, that’s how little Facebook actually means but it’s unfortunate. How do they expect us to keep connected with people when they ban the avenue to doing so? Again, like I said, they are destroying connections and friendships. And a whole month is excessive and pointless as shit. Like someone else said, it doesn’t even take 30 days to realize their “mistake”, I’m not a dog or have short attention span, I can figure it out with the first warning, I don’t need 30 days to “get it”. This isn’t real life, quit acting like untouchable, conceited, I-never-did-anything-in-my life internet police. And guess what? Everyone on my Facebook is over 18, legally allowed and able to view porn if they wanted. I didn’t direct any porn, just gave names of sites, in my comment section, on my own post, replying to my own friend that said something similar, if not more. Quit controlling and censoring what we say. It’s not of your business anyway what I choose to post. You can’t even send links through PRIVATE MESSAGES. Why the hell are you stalking and controlling what I send with a PRIVATE MESSAGE? If I’m sending it to someone, odds are they probably wanted it or don’t care. But nope, you get that removed right away too. I doubt anyone on my Facebook page would have cared about my post (and those that would have, I simply blocked them from seeing it anyway. Problem solved.) Reddit is shit, Facebook is shit, the whole internet is turning to shit because of the authoritarian control and the excessive, pussy ass censorship. Again, fuck Zuckerberg, fuck Facebook. They don’t deserve my (or tbh anyone’s) userbase, especially when they go after innocent posts and comments but ignore all the real bullshit, racists hateful ones. My appeal did nothing while there’s still fake ass profiles everywhere). Fuck em. When I’m unbanned, Ima let everyone on my profile know how bullshit Facebook is, not that it’ll actually change or do anything.
I agree with EVERYTHING you wrote.
ESPECIALLY the part about private messages. Just like you, I’ve gotten notices from the FACEBOOK AUTHORITIES over something I sent in a PRIVATE message.
It’s complete bullshit.
None of my comments are showing..
Hey Julian… sorry about that! My spam filter marked it. When I saw THIS comment, saying your OTHER comment wasn’t showing, I went and checked and there it was.
Glad you pointed out there was a glitch.
I’ve been banned for 2 days because I used the term “white trash” in regards to a local couple that murdered their 6 week old baby. Duh.
30 days in the hole for making a derogatory statement about white privileged American men.
I couldn’t be happier. No more ads, OR White trash men
Fuckerberg just lost a consumer!
I hope the pasty faced fascist little shitfuck goes broke!
I got a 30 day jail for posting a picture that facebook retarded algorithm flaged as nudity , the picture that a girl fully dressed , taking a pic of two of her wet fingers in her pov , and had absolutely no nudity , and before i called my friend ” stupid motherfucker” cause we were joking and i got banned ,what the fuck is wrong with this political correctness bullshit ? Our right to free speech is being violated in facebook. We must bring up our voices , we must be heard , facebook has to stop that shit , we must make a hashtag viral , cause we are sickened of that fascism
I have been in 30-day Fascistbook Jail several times…just got put there again today for Sharing a meme…the one with Hitler, about ‘snitches’ doing ‘The Reich Thing!’
Guess I Can’t say anything Against their Hero!
(Proving, ironically, that They are Nazis!)
Screw Mark Fuckerturd!!
I was banned from Facebook for three days because they say an image I had posted “violated Facebook’s Community Standards”. There was nothing more specific than that. I posted an image containing a properly attributed quote by Hermann Goring stating that Hitler was sent by God to save Germany. To emphasize the absurdity of Goring’s quote, I juxtaposed it with an image of Michaelangelo’s painting of God creating Adam, with Hitler in place of Adam.
I was trying to make a point about the absurdity of some people proclaiming that a certain American president was chosen by God, and point out that similar claims were made about Hitler. One would think the accompanying image should have made my satirical intent clear. But that would assume the Facebook censors have common sense, which they clearly don’t.
In fact, I posted that exact same image to TWO Facebook groups on the same day. Facebook only removed it from one group, which should show you how arbitrary they are.
I was able to click a button on a Facebook Help page to notify Facebook that I disagree with their decision. But there was no option to type any questions (such as how does this image violate their “community standards”) or explain the message I intended.
Maybe the image of Hitler and/or the Goring quote was misconstrued as “hate speech”. On the other hand, maybe the depiction of God with Hitler was considered blasphemous and therefore “objectionable”. I have no way of knowing. In fact, I have no way of even ASKING.
How can I follow Facebook’s “community standards” guidelines when they’re not made clear? Do I have to be concerned that any MENTION of hatred and bigotry could be misconstrued as PROMOTING hatred and bigotry?
If public schools were run like Facebook, any teacher that mentions Hitler in a history class would be fired for “hate speech.”
Everything you’ve written is literally everything that’s wrong with Facebook… the arbitrary nature of their punishment (pic removed from one group, but not another), their inability to explain their rules (outside of a blanket statement: we can delete anything at any time)…
So much wrong with how they operate.
The biggest problem, sadly, is that you offered up something that took an ounce of thought. Facebook, and the public in general doesn’t like to think. Why read a book if you can see the movie? Why examine a picture when you can just say, “Hitler bad!”
It’s absurd, and sad.
Just got a 24 hours ban. Some creep said something about being put over a knee and paddled and I said he was disgusting and to pull his pants back up. And I got banned? What the hell.
That’s how it works. Because Facebook sucks.
Just got banned for saying I was sick of the videos of whiny White peoples harassing POC. The video that I posted this comment under is of yet another old white, whiny couple harassing young black women in a high school track. I said that I’ve seen too many of these types of videos and the white folks make me want to punch them in the throat. I didn’t advocate wholesale slaughter like the Proud Boys, Boogaloo Boys or even the average far- right QAnon putz does every single moment of every single day. I said I wanted to punch them. The hypocrisy is rampant. And stinks to high heaven.
I’m in Facebook jail, 3 days. I upset Facebook regulations. Didn’t really find out what upset them, but I’m darned if it’s going to spoil my weekend.
It’s usually political…

I got a 24 hour ban for a derogatory comment, last time I got FB jailed was almost a year ago, then I went back thinking the ban was up but it seems they turned it into a 7 day ban. They didn’t list why the 7 day existed and when I hit the reason for it tab, or whatever, it just showed a year old ban that was reversed a year ago anyways.
Have you ever heard of them extending or punishing twice on the same infraction?
I did hit disagree with the 24 hours so I assumed it was reviewed, but does that mean some asshole at FB saw my punishment and decided to punish me again and worse?
Please have you or anyone have a similar experience?
I haven’t been punished 2x for the same post, but I have been given a 30-day ban for something I posted years ago. It’s happened twice now, where I’ll get a notification that I did something “naughty,” and when I pull the notification up Facebook is showing me a post from 2015 or some such nonsense.
There’s no rhyme or reason concerning fb jail. People get put in fb jail for the most innocuous reasons. Im presently in fb jail (24 hrs) for telling a real irritating trumper where to go!
Id like to tell that little twirp zuckerschmuck where to go!!
Its a social media site. I think it depends what little ss trooper is working the desk that day, that decides who gets locked up!
Truth!
Just got exiled from the socialist network village for 3 days for saying that Chinese invented explosives! That is what history books say but apparently this kid of truth is against Fbook community standards! lol This is my second ban, the first one I wasn’t even sure what I did wrong exactly. Anyways, I downloaded MeWe and have to say was surprised at how easy it is to use and seems less politically toxic. Will have to drug all my friends there and suggest you do the same!
What an interesting time to be alive… The invention of gunpowder is now politically incorrect. Huzzah!
