Press "F" to doubt.

I see Bible passages shared on FB all the time. Those people aren't being banned.

It’s the algorithms. I’ve written dozens of FB Notes, many on controversial topics including all manner of discussion here at FR sufficient to ‘trigger’ a lefty.

Sometimes my writing triggers the steel trap, sometimes it doesn’t. My hypothesis is that they’ve been testing this past year.

However, it has become clear of-late that the algorithms have been enhanced to look not only at combinations of words, URLs and prior content (I assert a secret “ranking” for FB users), but live content as well. I narrowed down to 2 sentences in one note which was flagging it, but when I pasted the same text into a new note: Nothing. In the note with all the other content: Flagged and unable to edit. Their new stealth trick is a message that vaguely-states “cannot open this note now” and at that point NO CONTENT IS SAVED and it CANNOT BE PUBLISHED. I’ve literally had posts I WAS STILL TYPING get flagged. Furthermore, I have numerous notes in draft format which are time-intensive, one of which just this weekend I can no longer edit without removing key phrases & URLs (I obsessed on it until I figured out what was flagging the FB Police).

Whatever is happening at FB is not being widely-reported, but one thing is clear: This portends what’s ahead for the coming 11 months.
