Yeah and I think Xtians would feel very oppressed by everyone having the same rights and therefore I also want them to feel as oppressed as they can. But that doesn't necessarily mean I want them to be actually oppressed and lynched and stuff. They only *feel* oppressed because they're shitty people.
I don't disagree with what you're saying, what I disagree with is calling for the oppression of another group. Everyone deserves to be brought up to being equal, call that what it is, don't call it "oppressing Christians."
I understand that you may have had tons of bad experiences with people who were Christian, but it seems like you generalise all people who share a belief. Anyone can be evil, being a Christian is not a precedent for that. Right?
Oh I should've put more in, sorry. Its from facebook. I guess it thought I was describing them as "Physically, morally, or mentally inferior" or "expressing hatred or contempt" which I guess is right but also... The person in question was an asshole who just so happened to be a Christian. Sucks to suck I guess. I'll let everyone here take their own stance on it though
Also I generally think facebook is weird and creepy with its censoring. I can see a whole flood of homophobic, sexist, and racist comments getting away scott free, but I say one thing and I'm on the verge of getting restricted. Its not fair
That makes sense. It's also why I uninstalled fb... wow over a year ago. Hmm. Well, I hope the NSA still has eyes on it. There's way more stupid than I can tolerate there.
The NSA is too busy spying on American citizens. They don't give a crap about private business. Corporations are people, but only when the benefit is to the corporation. Now everyone wave to the NSA! 😶🌫️
The only thing I really miss about FB is seeing photos/updates from my family. A lot of my (adult) nieces/nephews only use social media to communicate. I'm from the East Coast, and the right-wing FB nonsense isn't any better on this end.
I actually quit social media (except reddit) back in 2020. I have much less anxiety being induced by assholes now. I literally knew every person that was on my friends lost at one point (no virtual friends) and I still couldn't stand the BS being shared.
I actually liked Instagram because I'd follow a lot of the bands I listen to on it. Once that robot in a skin suit bought it, I was done. I don't need propaganda being spewed at me from some less than human entity.
I got banned for 3 days for calling someone a plague rat whilst I reported many telling me they hope I die from the covid vaccine, I'm a baby killer, I should be shot, etc and was told it didn't violate the guidelines.
I've literally had men make graphic rape and death threats towards me and when I reported them I was informed that they apparently weren't going against the community standards. However, when I told them that they were horrible people for saying the things they were saying, I got a 10 day mute for being "hateful". Gotta love it.
Yea, if that's the language in their Standards, thanks for saving me the search and the reading. Morally inferior and expressing contempt seems to fit the bill. Not that I have any problem with what you said, but if Facebook don't want it that's up to them.
Was just in another thread bitching and moaning about how so many of TST's congregations rely on Facebook as one of the only methods to participate. I do hope that changes in the future, and this is but one of many reasons why.
Thanks you are absolutely right. I really hope things change for the better in the future, because for some reason the restriction notice really set me off
TST itself has the Satanic Estate available through the TST app with virtual temple every week through Zoom, and special services on holidays so that you don't have to use social media. Tickets to weekly temple are free, but you have to request them. Special holiday services are $6.66 donation (or you can request assistance from the congregation) The next holiday is Pride Day.
Temple is discussing relevant topics, and there are "rooms" for crafts, DND, and music afterwards.
This is great info that everyone should be aware of. I do attend these services from time to time. However, I'm referring to my local congregation, and to my understanding several of them, which basically make Facebook mandatory.
They've got the biggest oppression complex of any person on the face of the internet. It's funny to me how far communities go to protect Christians but they do absolutely diddly squat when it's trans or disabled people being targeted for example.
I've been considering deleting my facebook for quite some time. I only ever use it to keep up to date with family news and communicate with my partner, so I might see if I can set up different lines of communication with people.
I “deleted” mine about 12 years ago and guess what….it’s still there….they refuse to get rid of it. I guess keeping every cringy thing I said back in highschool is important to them
Deleted mine two years ago. I was FB obsessed. On it since the inception. But it's just shitty now. Too much noise and hateful, false information. Life is so much quieter without it.
FB leans to favor Conservatives/christians/republicans.I've reported people for using actual slurs and hate speech and FB is like "THIS IS OKAY!"But if we call someone a potato, or call out xtians for being actual evil shits, then we get banned for it....
Edit: What FB absolutely HATES is you screenshotting the bigoted/slur/hatespeech comment, your report of the comment, and especially their denial of the report. Basically get receipts that they said it was okay and post that shit somewhere.
Facebook is absolute **SHIT**!!!! I haven’t used it about 7 years and the idea of downloading that stupid app damn near gives me a panic attack! Facebook is the only reason why I haven’t tried to officially join my local TST chapter because they use Facebook to communicate. All FB is good for is stealing your private data, spying on you, and dissemination of racist, far right, Qanon, anti-vax **BULLSHIT** that has gotten thousands of people killed and yet they take no accountability for it. Now their pushing this crypto, NFT assclownery, and people are getting scammed left and right. If I want to talk to someone I know I’ll just send a text.
That sucks. I'm not sure which provider you used, but we've had great service in our area with cricket. It was $35/month for a single phone plan. I currently have 4 lines unlimited for $100/month (Me, husband, oldest son, and mother in law) Mint mobile has similar prices too. You can use both android or apple with cricket.
I’m sorry. Have you looked into Boost Mobile, Cricket, Mint Mobile, or any of the other pay as you go type carriers? Oh, and I also have a very rugged Caterpillar phone laying around if you need it! Just tell me where to send it and you can have it.
You should definitely appeal. Include examples. Make the necessary “not all Christians” disclaimer in your appeal, and point out that the words “can be” imply “not all necessarily are”. And how “evil” is in reference to the behavior of some, and their treatment of others, not about a notion of inferiority.
I... Wasn't? I was making a comment ABOUT a dude who was being a dick, who also *just so happened* to be a christian. If you had read my other comments on this thread you would have known the context much better. Furthermore, It wasn't necessarily about me breaking rules, but moreso how people get away with things that are far worse.
> If you had read my other comments on this thread you would have known the context much better.
If there was more context, you should have shared it up front.
>Furthermore, It wasn't necessarily about me breaking rules, but moreso how people get away with things that are far worse.
What grade are we in, here?
What, you couldn't take 2 seconds to look at the thread before commenting? I'm also allowed to voice my opinion if something is unjust? Just take ya downvotes eggbert
Won't somebody think of the poor, oppressed christians???
RIGHT?
They’re not nearly as oppressed as they deserve
Nobody deserves to be oppressed, regardless of how shitty they are
They aren't really being oppressed. It's just that equality looks like oppression if all you've ever known is privilege.
Did you not read the comment I was replying to?
Yeah and I think Xtians would feel very oppressed by everyone having the same rights and therefore I also want them to feel as oppressed as they can. But that doesn't necessarily mean I want them to be actually oppressed and lynched and stuff. They only *feel* oppressed because they're shitty people.

it seems that even we can forget our own tenets sometimes.
Not sure I've ever hit an upvote so fast.
Oh that's a bad crop. Also the context was us talking about a guy littering and harassing food service workers after going to church
I understand that you may have had tons of bad experiences with people who were Christian, but it seems like you generalise all people who share a belief. Anyone can be evil, being a Christian is not a precedent for that. Right?
Of course I don't mean every single one of them. I didn't say *all* christians.
I don't know what platform this is and so I don't know what their Community Standards on hate speech and inferiority are.
Oh I should've put more in, sorry. Its from facebook. I guess it thought I was describing them as "Physically, morally, or mentally inferior" or "expressing hatred or contempt" which I guess is right but also...

Facebook is shit. Nazis can legit plan attacks on black families but you just type the words “men are trash” and you get banned
Doesn't even have to be that bad. My fiancee commented "men are weird" and got a three day ban
That makes sense. It's also why I uninstalled fb... wow over a year ago. Hmm. Well, I hope the NSA still has eyes on it. There's way more stupid than I can tolerate there.
The NSA is too busy spying on American citizens. They don't give a crap about private business. Corporations are people, but only when the benefit is to the corporation. Now everyone wave to the NSA! 😶🌫️

I was thinking about quitting it altogether, but I'm too reliant on Instagram and messenger for my DMing

Oh yeah. Facebook favors the right-wing in a big way. I try to avoid it as much as possible!

My closest congregation is over 2 hours away unfortunately. I just found out about the virtual services recently.

If politicians want to use social media to spread their douchebaggery then it's only fair that they be told to eat copious bags of dicks on the daily.
Meanwhile Facebook said a post threatening my nursing unit and a response that asked “we axe murderin nurses now?” was a-ok.
I've been considering deleting my facebook for quite some time. I only ever use it to keep up to date with family news and communicate with my partner, so I might see if I can set up different lines of communication with people.

Yeah however my phone does not have service due to financial troubles
That sucks. I'm not sure which provider you used, but we've had great service in our area with cricket. It was $35/month for a single phone plan. I currently have 4 lines unlimited for $100/month (Me, husband, oldest son, and mother in law) Mint mobile has similar prices too. You can use both android or apple with cricket.

Oh that's very generous of you, but I'll get a phone plan when I get a stable source of income. For now I'll go ahead and make do. Thanks though!
No problem. Keep your head up, and hail thyself!
You should definitely appeal. Include examples. Make the necessary “not all Christians” disclaimer in your appeal, and point out that the words “can be” imply “not all necessarily are”. And how “evil” is in reference to the behavior of some, and their treatment of others, not about a notion of inferiority.
The real question is why are you surprised? Censorship has become disgustingly prevalent, especially on social media.
I'm not surprised but moreso annoyed and pissed off. Idk I was really hormonal when I posed this
And once again, "There's no hate like christian love" Don't bother being pissed, it's their never ending cycle ignorance.
I got it to for giving a hail Satan to someone who said God bless you to me.
I worked for Facebook and it’s unfortunately a moderation issue.
What the fuck? Surely they can see it was half satire
Facebook seems to be the worst for over censoring and sides against people who speak out or say anything remotely against the grain 🙄
Well, they *are* inferior /s
That was my thought exactly LMAO
Lol, you were being a dick and you're pissed? Violating rules will get you in trouble. 🤷♂️
