Facebook complaint: Discrimination, unwarranted account restrictions

Facebook’s automated system discriminates against the LGBTQI community, and their reporting tool is weaponized by people who don’t like your commentary. In October I commented a joke about Jesus, stating he was Gay and Loyal to his Fag Hag. Fag Hag is a term of endearment used in the queer community for the straight chick that acts as a wing-chick for their gay (male) friends. Yet this post was reported for hate speech and their automated system blocked it and when challenged, it still claimed it went against our community standards. Today, (122122) I posted another comment in response to a video where a boss was talking about how the new hire doesn’t deserve a raise or the same opportunities as the 10 year veteran, even if they are doing the same work with equal or better performance. I stated Utter BS, and any boss who thinks this way deserves a swift kick in the ass. If someone can do the same work as a veteran with 4 months experience that says far more about the qualifications of the 10 year veterans than it does the new worker. This was reported by somebody where they claim it went against the community standards for inciting violence.

Now I’m on a 24 hour account restriction, even though I challenged today’s claim as well.

Facebook needs to stop allowing people to weaponize their post reporting tools, especially when the automated system that drives such responses is not sophisticated enough to differentiate between nuanced speech like a swift kick in the ass which is a common idiom, or the difference between calling someone a fag and the term fag hag.

Not only that, but their third party review board is a joke.
