That time my husband reported me to the Facebook police: a case study

Before I deleted my account (not just the app on my phone, my actual account), I reported multiple posts and comments that were blatantly racist, homophobic, anti semitic, misogynistic etc, and/or directly called for violence or state sponsored oppression in one form or another. Those reports all went the same way, with FB giving a mealy mouthed reaponse saying the posts or comments didn’t violate their policies. So I have direct knowledge of reported posts going undeleted. Maybe they’re more strict about the sexy stuff. Either way, the moral of the story is, delete your fucking accounts, the world will be better for it.
