Title: I was kicked off Facebook for WrongThink
Post by: HeroHog on February 07, 2022, 10:41:51 PM
Yup! "Alfred Mercer" on Facebook is no more. The 4 sales he had pending on the Facebook Marketplace, POOF!, gone. No real explanation given. I DID request a Review but I think we all know how THAT is going to go down.

We're always looking out for the security of people on Facebook, so while your posts and comments are reviewed you can't use Facebook.

The message that popped up on the phone app said something about posting about "Self Harm" or "Physical Threats", none of which I have ever made to the best of my knowledge!

Fortunately, my Twin Brother, Al Mercer, has an account there so he can pass along anything to me as needed.

Sorry that happened, I know that must be disruptive.

But maybe it's a blessing in disguise.  Since you're going through the disruption anyway, maybe this is a good time to rid yourself of that platform.

They got me in the January of 21 purge... Over 10 years of photos, high school friends thought I had blocked them, etc., etc...
 
I gotta get another email addy to do another account. I tried once, and it was zapped within hours.

I've not been eliminated... yet. But I'm serving out the last few days of my latest Zuckerjail sentence.

I'm going to download everything off my page (photos and all that) for when those aholes finally strip my account.

Seren is enjoying her account, however.

The Fix is in.

Say, does twin brother Al have the nickname "Slowy?"

I feel for Bogie, losing all that history.

The concept of Community Standards has become a tool of the tyrant.

I just don't talk about serious topics on FB.  FB is not a place for real conversations, and shouldn't be treated as such.

I know nothing about how friendface works, but how difficult would it be for them to lockout a banned person from posting or showing up in a search, but still allow them to access their account for "x" days to download their content? Or just provide a link for them that downloads everything as a single zip file? Just wiping everything out is a *expletive deleted*bag move.

^ "Just wiping everything out is a *expletive deleted*bag move."

*Expletive deleted*bag moves are comfortable SOP for the "awakened."  That's how they achieved their current ascendancy.

Bookburning has moved into the digital age.

I do, but I guess it's subtle enough not to trigger the wokies.  I need to up my game.

(I did get a demerit once, for advocating spaying or neutering elected officials.)

Yeah, this is what I do and it's really not hard. I have friends who constantly post edgy political memes, get locked and then get all pissy about it. I don't get the point. If you don't like how facebook operates then why use it?

As Boom said, they like being douches. Additionally, the locked out person has no "their" content on FB.  It's FB's content, and if they let you back in you might delete some of the product they are selling.  Why would they do that?

It bears repeating ad nauseum:  EVERYTHING on FB belongs to FB, and they are selling it.  That is their product.  You are providing them product for free, that they then sell for money.

I've posted quite a bit of "controversial" commentary on Fecesbook.  Mostly just copied and pasted stuff with attribution.  My comments when posting that stuff is to say it's interesting commentary and worth some thought.  I've never been jailed or warned by Fecesbook.

Just like Photobucket.

If only fecesbook would follow in the unlamented footsteps of Photobucket. Photobucket still exists (somewhat to my surprise), but nobody I know still uses them.

They got bough out and the new owners implemented a much saner pricing policy a while back.

I haven't lost anything as I save anything worth keeping offline or on my web server. The "Al" account has been purged of all posted pics and videos. If I could delete all the old posts on there, I would!

Post by: Bogie on February 08, 2022, 02:13:57 PM
Thing is, I looked at what other people had gotten zapped for, and mostly avoided that sort of thing... Somewhat... Hell, I think Mad Mike might even still have an account...
 
I pissed off one of the wokies (told him that I thought that his view of some people being more deserving than others was wrong, and that i thought that people should be judged by who they are, rather than what they are...), and I figure he went back through my account for a couple of days, reporting anything and everything that was edgy... They didn't tell me exactly, but from the hints when I bitched, I think it was for selling some muzzle brakes back around 2015...

I don't post any pics that are unrecoverable on fecesbook and generally I'm actively trying to melt snowflakes and get facebook jail time. =D

I'm on a 90 day "restricted" status for posting too much  "fact checker said it was false" stuff.
Pretty much all the memes I share are right from facebook. Some of them are pretty funny. Meme about gluten intolerance, something about humans eating gluten for 10s of thousands of years and now suddenly everyone is gluten intolerant. No references, no finger pointing, got fact checked about glyphosate.
A couple of obvious satire about Biden/Harris and the vaccine and Fauxchi.
Makes me want to kick some trans factchecker beech right in the nuts.

Y'all know me, I meme my ass off, post quotes that irritate the left, post cute pet clips, spiritual things, and pretty much speak my mind. I TRIED to "dial it back" but I keep getting dings form almost a decade ago.

Only thing I will lose are memes I posted that I didn't save to my file served, no big deal. Any articles I thought I would need/like to later reference, I kept as well.

My massive friend list (500+) and list of Groups are the only real loss NOT counting those 4 FB Marketplace sales I had and was closing but am now locked out of!

  it's AI
 artificial intelligence cannot detect/understand humor or sarcasm - the AI is programmed by woke idiots.
 example, I got a seven day suspension for commenting on an article about a trans ( male to female weightlifter )
 I said "see, men are much better at being women than women are"
even the woke lesbian at work loved the joke.

That sort of crap is inflicted on every potential new social media in order to keep people from leaving the leftist electric plantations.  Perhaps try not falling for such an obvious tactic.
