Community standards, of course. Someone in the community reported your deplorable language. In case anyone doesn't know, when your account is suspended you can still see everything that you had access to on this social media site. You have the illusion you can still use the site, but you can't interact with anyone in any way. It's genius really - the "world" is passing you by. For the record, I didn't report your post :D When the group is PUBLIC, anyone who can view/read/post can. As I was saying earlier (and repeatedly), a word, sentence, thought, which anyone finds objectionable, is enough to silence you. If you continue to use this service, get used to this.

I'll tell Pete about it :D

It's almost like this group gets more and more embarrassing for the JUSTICE (the sum of all lawyers)

This group does appear to be getting more embarrassing, but not for the reasons you think. By the way, apparently Facebook is now both banning people, and removing content.

For what reason then?

I suspect it will be posted. This should add some clarity.

We'll make sure the groups are archived up-to-date. After that, no promises.

For anyone who has not blocked Dan Wilson, I'm told he is also greatly amused by this post.

Is this group will get Semiticisated ? :D

Semiticisated ?

Trojans, your English is just as bad as Pete's :P

Indeed :/

Still wondering what "Semiticisated" means though.

Becoming Semitic :D

.....And starts sucking penis of little baby jews, because GOD says so..... :/

Hey, don't ban me for that facebook, I have proofs that this stuff really happens still, in 2016. :/ And everyone seems to not care..... :/

Not my fault :/

I'm sure truth is a "defence" somewhere. I wouldn't count on it being significant in this medium.

Yes, many kids with STD because of that practice.

Trojan, remember to respect people belief.

Great thread folks. Glad to be among the outraged at the insanity we call reality

As may be, no amount of rhetoric will do anything to ameliorate the situation. If you are using someone else's property (especially if it's free), you are bound by the terms and conditions they set. A small number of people who are "outraged" by being censored for the use of currently unfashionable words or ideas, is not statistically significant. It is reasonable to assume policy is set to maximize content and revenue dollars. This means the majority of users and advertisers, influence the acceptable content. In the case where someone takes issue with your posts or comments, your access can be immediately discontinued for any period the owner sees fit. None of this should be a surprise to anyone. I favour original content over regurgitated content found elsewhere on the Internet. This means that in a measurable sense, as I write this, FB is being paid for every word I write for free. The same applies to your posts and comments. Facebook is in many ways a great tool if you use it in a deadbeat capacity (a colloquial term used to describe credit card users who pay their bill off monthly). You can use the chat feature, find out when friends are online, join special-interest groups or see news and world events not necessarily available through the news media. It makes otherwise complicated tasks really easy. It is, however, free to use only in a way that corresponds with their "Community Standards". As this group is currently public, any Tom, Dick, or Wilson can determine whether or not you can continue to use the service. I suppose you can create new accounts as the old ones get "burned", but this option shortly will also be unavailable to you. So, you can get started on creating or finding other alternatives, or you can tow the party line.

Steemit seems to be a good start to a new platform besides Diaspora.Tara Duncan What's are your thoughts on Steemit?

Firstly, we have a presence on Diaspora so that is our default choice. I'm not very familiar with Steemit - so thoughts it is. Steemit has an interesting business model, but is still very new. People who like the idea of combining block chain functionality with user rewards may find this attractive. While its usage is definitely trending up quickly, it remains to be seen if it has widespread adoption.

Also I should mention I have mixed feelings about their assurance of unregulated free speech as well as a permanent record of every communication. In this case, just a personal preference.

Steemit allows folks to downvote things that hurt there feelings and/or dislikes. It's quite interesting! Voting costs Steemit power.

It is a Reddit-based model to be sure, and it has worked relatively well for them. You will note in Reddit that there are still moderators for the forums, and sometimes posts are removed.
