Facebook basically banned us
 
So even though the IMFDB facebook page still exist, we can't even link people to that page. Spelling out IMFDB.org even in a chat apparently is flagged and the comment can't be posted.

Fuck Facebook. In the recent years, they've been incredibly annoying with their shitty "community standards", and their algorithms are crappy as hell.

They probably consider us a "hate group" since we aren't spewing BLM propaganda.

Considering how much more "diverse" we are than violent black people or cuck white people of the BLM.

How "diverse" are we? Was there a survey recently collecting data on the wiki users' ethnicities or something like that?

I think quitting Facebook an year ago was the one of the best choices I've ever made in my life. All you'll find there lately is pointless quarreling, fake news, censorship and propaganda. Not to mention the amount of data Facebook steals from you. Thankfully it seems to be dying, slowly but surely.

It has nothing to do with diversity. The "mob" opinion right now is to promote killing cops, blacks as perpetual victims of white oppression, and characterize anyone that doesn't do either as a racist who wants to reinstate slavery. We aren't doing the former three, so we get subjected to the latter.

So is there anything that can be done about this? It's not the first time that Facebook's algorithms have turned up false positives.

Has anyone reached out to Chris/Bunni yet? If not, I'm happy to do so. I haven't talked to Chris in a while (years now), but I know he's still around.

For what it's worth, the same thing happened to Mr. Guns-N-Gear months ago. We can probably take the same steps he took - see his video on what he did:

Yes, please reach out to Bunni and see what can be done about this.

I talked to Chris (bunni). He’s tracking. We’re looking into what can be done right now.

Facebook, Twitter, Google, Youtube.... are on a banning spree. The BOOK BURNERS are here. :(

As private companies, they get final say on who uses their services and who doesn't. The First Amendment protects us from government censorship and doesn't apply here, just like it doesn't prevent you from throwing me off your front lawn simply because it's Monday if you choose.

Would we be doing any different if someone tried to use IMFDb as a promotion platform for gun control? Declare me a traitor, leftist, "Communist/Marxist Democrat," Nazi, or whatever else, but the constitution isn't slanted to any side of the spectrum.

Excalibur 01-26-2021 12:27 AM

I understand the private company clause but there's been several cases where Social Media had to answer if they were publishers.

Either way, they should at least inform why they decided to not allow IMFDB.ORG links despite gun sites still being allowed

So I tried to go to the FB page today, and it said the page isn't available. You still get a hit when you search for it, and images from the page still show up, but you can't reach the actual page. Is this the same for anyone else?
