When the "anti-fascist" is against the rules, you don't need to think twice to realize who they are.🤬

@joenepraat Fortunately I left FB something like twenty years ago. >whew<
@joenepraat Aunty Fa probably won't mind
@joenepraat 😂 😂 😂 😂 Omg they are so blatant and so scared 😂😂😂 like, antifa isnt even a word that could trigger because of what implies, its just because they dont want their own social media turning against them, and they know they're labeled antifa HAHA its actually funny 😂
@joenepraat * correction, they are labeled fascist of course, well, you know what i mean.
This is a content moderation policy, not an account ban. If Meta actually suspended your account for using "antifa," that's a different issue—file a support appeal at facebook.com/help. If they're suppressing your posts without banning you, that's algorithmic ranking, not actionable through appeals. What's your specific situation?
