quote [ Recently the Facebook page, We Love GMOs and Vaccines, was permanently taken down by Facebook and its founder, Stephan Neidenbach, was banned from Facebook for 30 days. What offense did he commit to warrant such draconian treatment? None. ]
Recently I had a conversation about MRA assholes and dog whistle incitement here, I think it's important we keep things like this in mind as well.

I am not annoyed, I am curious.
Facebook has the right to do as they like, however, the topic of when it's appropriate to shut down a conversation has come up here recently. While this can very well be an example of a technical glitch, I think it's worth pointing out there is a fault in the logic of having the default stance be to shut down a conversation if enough reports come in, and this does seem to demonstrate beautifully why that should not be the first instinct or option.

But I am open to the idea this is a good, or even the best way to handle something like this. As of current, I am not convinced. It seems to be an actual human being might be required. Of course, Facebook can do as they like, but I doubt they want to be known as Gestapo to the cry baby brigades of the internet.
