Today, “criminal content” means having an opinion that is other than what the mainstream “orthodoxy” says “truth” is even when the opposite is plainly apparent.
Here at Shoebat.com, we express a lot of opinions, and as we note in our articles, we are very familiar with harassment from Facebook thought police. We have all been banned in one way or another from Facebook, and it is only a matter of time before our temporary bans become permanent.
All of this is because we have opinions that are considered “controversial” in our current day. Many people agree with us, and many people disagree with us. That is fine, because even if people hate us, we cannot be accused of lacking an opinion of our own. As one Sicilian person I knew once said, “Un uomo senza enimici e un uomo senza carracateri,” meaning “A man without enemies is a man without character.”
The fact is that we will not all agree on everything...

For the first time Facebook has mentioned its own number for comments that were removed. In the last month in Germany, around 100,000 content items with hateful comments and insults were deleted, said Facebook’s European policy director, Richard Allan. However the company did not publish details of how many messages were complained about as a whole in this period and how the number of deleted comments changed in recent months.
One of the most serious problems remains the lack of transparency, said Federal Justice Minister Heiko Maas. “We should therefore consider whether we should obligate social networks to publish how many complaints they have received about illegal hate comments and how they dealt with them,” said the SPD politician.
Criminal content on the internet is still deleted “too little and too slowly,” said Maas.

Facebook Thought Police Purge Over 100,000 Comments In One Month Alone Because They Said They Were “Hateful”
And if that hate is deserved...?
Pray CONGRESS will not give the internet away.
They have never deleted one of my comments and I promise they will never delete one of my comments.
If there is anybody who does not hate Islam after 9/11 then there something seriously wrong with them.
Facebook should lurge trolls who come to attack people making posts, but instead facebook punishes people making posts, ie. FB is a troll click bait site
Yet, they claim to not have the technical ability to detect and shut down ISIS and other Jihadi pages. How can that be?
It’s a private company. They are under no obligation to not delete anything they care to.
It’s not a public utility and not subject to any sort of requirement to let stand anything they disagree with.
They are great for keeping up with family and classmates, for politics not so much, IMHO.
Since I pay them nothing directly they owe me nothing in terms of content provided or censored

Simple , it’s what we deplorables know as a “lie” ,, they certainly can do that but FB is a prime source of intel on those groups and the US intel agencies want those pages up and active.
Hillary Clinton’s crab lice is still up on facebook.......
Shades of Eric Blair and '1984.'
Does FB tell you if they delete a comment?
I’m wondering when people are going to realize that Facebook and Twitter are only there to FORM OPINION ..??
They’re not there for FREE SPEECH .. they are they to help you form a CONSENSUS .. with the help of people who are on those sites specifically for that purpose.
I don’t do either for that reason .. my posts would be pulled every day .. so why would I want to waste my time just to have it deleted BY SOMEONE ELSE ..??
Wake up America .. you’re being used.
They never had a chance, now will they.
And that's why nobody has any right to have or express any opinion about what they CHOOSE to do.
FR is the same. Indeed, complaining about FB here in the land of the zot is kind of funny; a post about how Clinton mopped the floor with Trump (not that she did) would be gone long before FB would delete even the most offensive content. And if I complained Jim Rob would most rightfully tell me to kiss his .... :-)
Unless and until I either create such a forum or pay based on a written contract that what I post can’t be deleted, I can vote with my (virtual) feet.
