September 22, 20215 yr So I posted, On Facebook, "It's time to kill the filibuster" in response to a news article. I received a 3 day ban for violating Facebook community standards. Can someone explain to me how that is a violation? It's not a threat of violence towards a person, its a policy not a person. It's also a common expression. Facebook is run by an Authoritarian regime.

Really pathetic policy to a particular word.In some cases, we see aspirational or conditional threats directed at terrorists and other violent actors (e.g. "Terrorists deserve to be killed"), and we deem those non-credible, absent specific evidence to the contrary.But yet, Kill the filibuster is a credible threat.

I agree it’s weak that you were banned for that. Perhaps someone took it that you want to kill people who filibuster.

So do you think I was reported by someone or did Facebook just flag the post because of the word. If the former, I am going to report people every day.
