I found this very strange behavior, even for Facebook:
Some time ago, maybe a week I put up an article about Selena Gomez. Something I read 'a new giveaway scam making rounds on social media is using fake deep fake videos and ads of popstar Selena Gomez to promote free Le Creuset cookware sets. The convincing sponsored posts claim Selena is generously giving away thousands of dollars worth of Le Creuset products to fans absolutely free. However, the entire promotion is an elaborate ruse aimed at stealing users’ money through concealed subscription fees'.

Currently, my account status is "Your account is at risk of being suspended. Fix any issues and check the rules so you don’t lose your account or your connections."
Most recently I was flagged for posting a suicide meme I "stole" from a FR post:
BT Fondues
Fondest Ub
“...so you get a group of people to say that someone violated a rule. FB doesn’t even look at the post. FB just assumes that group knows what they are doing.”
Are you saying a group of Freepers could do this?
Thank you for reinforcing my decision. They are idiots.
Read my comment again!
I never said that Beowulf9 should not use Facebook.
Rather, I was merely pointing out how nonsensical is it to complain about the consequences.
Regards,
LOL. Just read all the comments to-date.
There IS a forest through the trees, dude.
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth (LOTS of good advice here).
But that 'denial' thing looms LARGE...
I quit Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest a long time ago and I do not have these frustrations.
I wish you well in your fight against a communist organization that hates you.
THUNDER
I thought Selena was the Mexican singer who was killed.
The end of my Not Post.
Beginning of mine….if you’re using Facebook, you’ll find that you have to follow their rules, or else. One day they may require you to wear red striped shirts and prove it by sending a sign in photo to show that you comply. If you don’t, well, bye….
You choose your poison.
FYI, no Fakebook for years now, sometimes X, but FR is my go to social media. Keep it nice, DONATE.
Something I’ll never have to worry about. FB, Twitter/X, etc.
Try creating a graphic image with the word “Thunder” in it and see it that works.
they won’t let you post the word Thunder?
Try posting MILF... that is the initials of a local terrorist group in the Philippines where I live, and is a no no for Blogger.
Likely but I don’t discount an inside job. They know who to contact.
YouTube is constantly offended at my remarks. According to them, I routinely violate their so-called “community standards” by telling the truth about a certain 13% of our population. That’s worth a 24 hour “time out.”
Are you sure you weren’t referring to Michelle Obama as “Thunder Thighs”?
Facebook “jailed” me for 30 days for promoting suicide...placed my account on a warning for suspension.
Those communists just can’t deal with hilarious memes.
Even before the controversies, it was a security nightmare.
Post on Facebook, you get what you get. Live with it or don't do Facebook.
