agoodwinsmithSo, I have had one of my comments censured.
Here is the content of someone else's post I was responding to:
"Am I alone in thinking that if we expect someone to live somewhere as part of their job then we should also provide a refurbishment budget for it, and make it regularly a nice place to live?"
Here is the comment:
"April Goodwin-Smith
The higher up the food chain the employment is, the more likely there will be help to move and resettle. The generosity of the help is commensurate with the salary, so the less the person actually "needs" to resettle, the more they actually get. This is why Canada is having difficulty with agricultural work - it is temporary and the accommodations are hilariously terrible, and the cost of relocating eats all of the pitiful wage - but it is *really* because Canadians are lazy and entitled, doncherkno."
This is the reason:
Your comment goes against our Community Standards on hate speech and inferiority

We have these standards to protect certain groups of people being described as inferior to others.
New cogitation about this.
I do understand that FB uses autobots and cargo-rythms to make decisions, and so sarcasm is right out of their balliwick. I suspect if I removed everything after "pitiful wage", it would be fine. I think the trigger is GROUP NAME + is/are + LOADED WORDS. I was wondering whether changing it to " ... because we are lazy etc ... " would circumvent it, but I doubt it.
Sometimes I wonder whether some of these process aren't meant to enrage people, because I have certainly seen offensive comments that are obviously NOT OKAY but have also obviously not triggered the nanny. But then there's the whole malice/incompetence thing.
I have to say that considering that FB was started as a way for male students to rate female students, I vote malice.
