Re: Update: How to find PF Anderson
It has gone downhill, true. People are urging me to make a new account, and I’m sitting on that idea for a while. The Facebook data downloads have not included any of my posts or images.

Re: Update: How to find PF Anderson
Oof. That got me started down a rabbit hole. I searched "" and suddenly found many many articles related to this topic. The newest?one I saw:
Inside Meta, a debate over when the word 'Zionist' is hate speech
<>?
META CONSIDERING INCREASED CENSORSHIP OF THE WORD “ZIONIST” “I think it may actually harm the fight against antisemitism,” said the head of a Palestinian digital rights group briefed on the potential change.? <>?
?And here's a Human Rights Watch report alleging the opposite.?
Meta’s Broken Promises: Systemic Censorship of Palestine Content on Instagram and Facebook <>?
<>?
So who knows? Maybe they're suppressing speech more broadly? And maybe it's that the AI making the decisions is badly trained.?
