Did anyone notice that the first two on the Social Security post didn’t even list the numbers correctly?

working as Facebook fact-checkers.
Ever notice that there weren't any fact checkers until the truth started being told?....

A FB friend of mine posted this last night as an example of what dumbasses work at facebook.
"My wife posted a response to someone having issues with a bus driver, saying she would have "been blowing up the school's phone". Facebook banned her. Welcome to Communist Facebook. Where the "mediators" are so young and stupid they don't even know what a common phrase that's been used for 100 years means."
Jesus... fuckin' idiots.
We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on. -

I love how we're still thinking actual people are making these decisions. Look at the total post count on Facebook for one hour, compare it to the total number of Facebook employees and get back to me on how plausible you think it is that a person is actually sitting in a room with a button somewhere.
Please love yourself.

The moderation has entirely to do with human direction of the algorithms. This case about "blowing up phones" happens to be a bug, but the political bias in moderation, to the extent any of us wants to admit it exists, is a feature.

I'm not denying there's bias, however there are a lot of cases of incorrect moderation. A number of my FB friends who are way to the left of me have complained loudly about having their posts deleted/blocked etc. Sometimes they have reappeared again later.

It is indeed, but it's still very clunky implementation and it's code that's analyzing the text, not any one person. It's an important distinction.
