First, if fb is going to call you out for HateSpeech, then everyone ought be able to see that action of theirs.

Second, what would twtr have done with your comment?

I will allow for AI error - I disputed both and am waiting to see what happens.

But, yeah, it's quite possible.

You'd think that they'd take care not to mis-censor - and it now looks like the link is going through as others post it, but I don't see any obvious reason other than "the algorithms are skewed to protect Biden" for my warnings.

I haven’t tried anything with this story, but a few days ago I tried to post a meme depicting B r a n d o n in a strapless red evening gown as a comment in the NRPlus group and I got a “pending” message. As far as I know, it’s still pending.

I'd not be surprised if the sensitivity "dial" as to all things Biden was turned up a bit.

Facebook rescinded the warning, with a mea culpa. So, I will grant the possibility that the algorithms simply got it wrong.

Of course, the cynic in me notes that my feed was littered with shares of this story from a variety of other sites, so perhaps they just said "we can't snuff this one."
