I wouldn't doubt that they WOULD be nasty, but in this case, the posting was so repetitive (except for the officer name changes) that it had to trigger the spam stop. I managed social media accounts in the past and know how this works. That is the most likely explanation. And it is the most logical considering the nature of his posts. I know how algorithms and filters work on FB, Twitter, etc. (though they change frequently)
Considering the current anti police atmosphere nothing would surprise me but I just don't think that is the case after investigating. He needs to change up his posts a bit more so words are slightly different per each post. Using the same surrounding text but changing the officer's names simply triggers spam flags. That is advice. It works. If he complained they may have unflagged it going forward. But anything new doing the same technique will likely get flagged again. You have to know how to work around these things.
Except for them making him remove the video before unlocking it again doesn’t speak to a spam issue. See my next post.
Nice to have your professional insights, YC.
