Facebook demonetizing Babylon Bee
Posted on 10/20/20 at 12:50 pm

Facebook seems to have deleted @TheBabylonBee's post saying Senator Hirono wanted to weigh ACB against a duck for "violating our Community Standards." We requested a review but they haven't gotten back to us. pic.twitter.com/GWW5c4veCV

Facebook is also penalizing us by restricting monetization with ominous warnings of further penalties for future violations. pic.twitter.com/YTJpsEGMnC
Read this thread from our editor in chief. More threats and penalties from @Facebook, this time for violations of community standards. They haven't told us what policy we supposedly violated with this silly, innocuous post. https://t.co/9rORrGqaEj
So after a manual review, Facebook says they stand by their decision to pull down this article and demonetize our page. I'm not kidding. They say this article "incites violence." It's literally a regurgitated joke from a Monty Python movie!https://t.co/U9B6tTOj6N

In what universe does a fictional quote as part of an obvious joke constitute a genuine incitement to violence? How does context not come into play here? They're asking us to edit the article and not speak publicly about internal content reviews. Oops, did I just tweet this?

A Black Lives Matter leader said that if change doesn't happen, they'll "burn down this system." That's allowed on Facebook. You can quote it. You can link to it. But a Monty Python joke about burning a witch at the stake? That's incitement to violence. ?? show. LINK

I would cancel my Facebook account over this....except, I've never HAD one

They’re one of the few websites I would actually subscribe to for a fee. Their page gives me consistent laughs and the owner seems like a cool down to earth guy.
ETA: the Babylon Bee is what I’m referring to. Not Facebook.

It's puzzling that people on the Right still have Facebook accounts.
At what point is enough, enough?

I don't understand why so much of the Right gets heartburn about taxing the shite out of these assholes. Zuckerberg and so many ultra-wealthy taking control of the middle/upper-middle class use conservatives as useful idiots - willing to die on the hill of preserving the source of their extraordinary power over the country.

Hello Mr. Toobin...

I will DVR the antitrust case, if it ever happens.
At least fix Section 230.

I do not post on facebook, as I am not female, crazy or a teenager. I do have an account that I do not use as it was set up by the wife 15 years ago, that was about the time I stop using it.....

If Biden wins the election I’m definitely getting off of Facebook.
If Trump wins I shall stay to enjoy all of the melting. It will be so wonderful.

If you can't take a joke about a joke of a senator like Hirono then you are a fricking turd.
