Why did Facebook close my account?

64

Facebook disabled my account. Why? They said the account is not in my real name! (it was opened under Jean Patrick Grumberg, and it is my real name).

The reasons they provided are interesting because none of them apply to me:

  • Your account must list your authentic name.
  • Personal accounts must represent individual people only. It’s a violation of our policies to use a personal profile to represent anything other than yourself (ex: celebrities, pets, ideas, objects, etc.).
  • Impersonating anyone or anything is not allowed.
  • Maintaining multiple accounts is a violation of our policies.
  • Accounts created for the purpose of spamming or harassing others are strictly prohibited.

Facebook asked for my ID, which I provided.

Since then, and it was more than ten days ago, they have neither reacted nor replied: there is obviously an obstruction, and it is political.

Story continues below advertisement

I sent my ID several times. They still did not answer.

If enough of you ask Facebook to react, it will help me and they might reinstall my account (https://www.facebook.com/jpgrumberg).

Thank you for your help.

Grumberg = “the German name of the village Podlesí of the commune
Malá Morava in the Czech Republic”. Yes, Mr Grumerg, we live in Kafka-
esque times. That reminds of Kafka’s novella, “The Judgement”. By the
way, Kafka was born in Prague, his name in Czech means raven or crow.

A short while back, FB decided to kick me off for several days for using the term “muzzies” in two posts, one from 4 years ago, the other from 5 years ago. It took me two days to appeal because their appeal tool kept erroring on submission. By the time they finally got around to reviewing my appeal, verifying that “muzzies” is now considered hate-speech and worthy of a multi-day booting from the system, my suspension had been over for two-weeks. Their claims regarding their status as either a platform or a publisher need to be reviewed, and proper action taken.

Screw them. When you have a group of people that set the standard for what is hate speech that is almost as bad as hate crime. That’s like calling certain homicides a “Hate Crime” Vast majority of murders are hate. If you get the death penalty for it adding hate to it does not do anything but move a political agenda along.

It’s disgusting what Facebook done to you. But I share nearly all your posts on Facebook so you’re still strong on there.
What amazes me is the fact you can get news stories from the UK, yet they aren’t shown in any media in the actual UK. It just strengthens my suspicion that the UK media is gagged from reporting anything to do with Muslims. But as I said I share your posts especially the ones from the UK, so people do know what is happening.
Keep up the great work hunni

I had a fake Facebook account. I would NEVER put personal pictures and personal information out there for strangers. I could also care less who “likes” me. It turns out that was rigged by FB too.

Twitter was tempting but I wouldn’t last a week there. I hear GAB is good… I don’t know but he does need another platform. They are gearing up to CENSOR him.

Twitter Exec: We’re “Working Really Closely” on Censoring Trump
March 29, 2019 Sean Adl-Tabatabai

Twitter are working hard behind the scenes to ensure the President of the United States is heavily censored, according to a senior Twitter executive.

“One of the things we’re working really closely on with our product and engineering folks is, ‘How can we label that?’” said Vijaya Gadde, Twitter’s global lead for legal, policy, trust, and safety.

Bigleaguepolitics.com reports: She was responding to a question about whether Trump is immune from Twitter’s fascistic censorship rules, which mostly lead to right-wingers being de-platformed for Terms of Service violations. Gadde was conducting an on-stage interview with Amazon-owned blog The Washington Post, which recently spiked allegations of sexual assault against the Democrat Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, Justin Fairfax.

“How can we put some context around it so people are aware that that content is actually a violation of our rules and it is serving a particular purpose in remaining on the platform,” Gadde said.

Twitter’s perceived bias against conservatives has been well-documented.

Recently, Gadde appeared on the “Joe Rogan Experience” with CEO Jack Dorsey and journalist Tim Pool to discuss the allegations that the company is shutting down right wingers.

Pool easily dismantled Gadde’s denials of political censorship.

Big League Politics reported:

“You have an argument between two people, and you have a rule that enforces only one side of the ideology, and you’ve banned only one of those people,” Pool told Gadde.

The ideology in question was transgenderism. Twitter recently banned “misgendering” in its terms of service. Conservatives who point out the biological fact that men are men and women are women can now be booted from the platform, which is what happened to a woman whose account was banned.

“We have a rule that attempts to address what we have perceived to be instances of abuse or harassment,” Gadde said. “What I’m trying to say is not that you can’t have those viewpoints. If you’re taking those viewpoints and you’re targeting them at a specific person in a way that reflects your intent to abuse or harass them – ”

Rogan interrupted to ask specifically whether it was permissible on Twitter to say that a woman is biologically female.

“She responded with ‘men aren’t women, though,’” Pool said, referring to a woman who was banned from Twitter for arguing the biological basis of sex. “And that was her first – in the series of events that was what got her the suspension and the warning.”

Gadde said that instance was a first strike against the user, to which Pool asked why that would be a strike in the first place.

“Again – it’s like the context of the – I don’t, I don’t have all the Tweets in front of me. There were like 10 or 12 Tweets going back and forth and my understanding is that in the context of all of those she was misgendering a particular person,” Gadde said, faltering.

Pool fired back.

“So you’re having an individual who is debating a high-profile individual in her community, and she’s expressing her ideology versus hers, and you have opted to ban one of those ideologies.”

As long as Trump is reaching 70 million people on Twitter he has to keep using it. Just because we do not like it or the asscrack that owns it is no reason not to use it. I despise the Ford Foundation but have bought several Lincoln’s.

Amazon is helping out there with BOOK PURGING!
No kidding.

Bokhari: Amazon Is on a Digital Book Burning Spree
By Allum Bokhari

4/8/19

Under pressure from left-wing journalists and activists, Amazon is purging right-wing authors from its store, including a book co-authored by English Islam critic and independent commentator Tommy Robinson.

The web retail giant has become the dominant market player in book sales, accounting for nearly 50 percent of physical and 83 percent of e-book sales in the U.S. As such, Amazon has the power to effectively cut an author off from the vast majority of the books market.

(Books like this are okay. They support the liberal agenda.)

In 2010, Amazon refused to take down a book defending pedophilia on first amendment grounds. “Amazon believes it is censorship not sell certain books simply because we or others believe their message is objectionable,” an Amazon representative told CNBC at the time.

“Amazon does not support or promote hatred or criminal acts, however, we do support the right of every individual to make their own purchasing decisions.” (Unless they are conservative.)

In 2015, the site banned the sale of all merchandise depicting the Confederate flag.

Amazon doesn’t seem to have a problem with extremist of destructive books in general. Two of the most destructive books in history, Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf and The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels are available for purchase. So too are books by black nationalist Louis Farrakhan, notorious for his racist and anti-semitic comments — so it seems racial hatred isn’t subject to a blanket ban on Amazon either.
