I got put in fb jail for using a euphemism. There was a post about Mike Lindell bawl-bagging about his sales and that TFG will be reinstated this month. I commented that "his trump ties will hang him." Suddenly Zuckyboi's algorithm thought I wanted to lynch Lindell. πŸ™„ No, hun. Lindell is doing a fine job on his own. I appealed but they upheld my 3-day ban. They banned trump, but Suddenly are on his side? Talk about buttering your bread on both sides.

Sorry about your FB jail time. I'm on that site as well and they decided to ban me from marketplace, possibly even permanently. Facebook AI decided I was "trying to sell domain names and also become a car dealer." This came about because I got into developer tools which they said was forbidden. What a setup. My involvement in marketplace was mostly to check on local yard sales.

The current trend on Facebook is to generate controversy to keep everyone talking, but you do it without "hate speech." This means Lindell's actions cannot hang him but would maybe "do him in." I'm also finding a valid news feed now where they want likes and thumbs, and my feed now shows me ads that they have determined I might buy something from. I ignore them completely and have told them many times to stop showing me things I look at. I know what I look at and do not have to be shown again. This also happens in my e-mail and I click them as spam immediately.

Now just imagine in the AI future, government by algorithms!

No one should have a Facebook account...

"When something is free, you are the product."

I don't have any social media accounts since 2011. At one time, I had 30 personal and business accounts and ran good size ad campaigns there.

I'm doing time again as I type. It's healthy for me to get away from it a few times a year. This time I got "nailed" for politely calling someone "stupid."

If you're a common person, they'll get you for just about anything sounding like death. They pulled up a post I made more than a year ago about a tent that floats, and I flippantly said, "A floating tent sleeps four and offers a cool new way to die while camping." That got me three days and links to information on suicide. The last few warnings I've received haven't even given the option to appeal.

FB’s algorithms don’t recognize metaphors. Choose yours more carefully.

Which is why I appealed, but I don't think a real human ever saw it.

@Notlost It's not okay because it's us. We're not serious about it. If a gQp said this about, say Bozos, the Whole Foods crowd would go mad. Seriously. Both sides are in a delicate position here in Peyton Place.
