FACEBOOK'S AI CENSORS STRIKE AGAIN

We received a strike against one of our Facebook pages over the weekend, courtesy of their AI tool.  As with our most previous strike almost twelve months ago, the tool flagged up an historical meme and removed it.  This time, the meme was bizarrely flagged for 'sexual activity', despite there being no sexual activity present.  The screenshot below shows the removed meme, which was posted to the backup page two years ago.


A brief outline of the Facebook rule on sexual activity was provided, but as any human being would see - there was no sexual activity present.  The full small print of the rule additionally refers to 'adult nudity', which amounts to 'photorealistic/digital imagery of adult nudity'.  The crude depiction found on the meme can hardly be described as 'photorealistic'.


Facebook strikes generally result in a period of reduced page distribution, which hits us in the pocket.  As such, Karl swiftly appealed the decision, in the hope that a human moderator would see sense.  However, the AI tool took over again and rejected the appeal almost instantly - within a minute - informing us that it had 'confirmed that the post does not follow our community standards on sexual activity'.

What a joke?

If you thought the meme was funny and would like to share it somewhere, the original can be found below.

FACEBOOK'S SAUCY CENSOR

It's been a while since Facebook issued a strike against BTLP, but we received another one over the weekend for something that was posted almost six years ago.  An amalgam of two saucy memes, the 'Joy of Sex' mock-up was scanned by Facebook's AI program and deemed to be 'bullying and harassment'.  The 'victims' in this awful case were Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott.

Make of it what you will...


One of the consequences of a strike from Facebook is a reduction in a page's distribution.  We will see how the page is affected in the days to come and potentially revert back to the secondary page (yet again).

FACEBOOK CENSOR RIOT QUOTE

It's been less than six weeks since Zuckerberg's thought police carried out their biggest strike yet on BTLP and they have struck again.  On Monday we were both met with warnings from Facebook in relation to a post we shared a day earlier, quoting Labour councillor Ricky Jones (see below).  This was flagged as 'something that could encourage violence' or be 'a direct threat to public safety'.  As any moron could see, quoting Cllr Jones was not designed to promote his words, but expose them.  We cannot speak for AI, but a human moderator would have known this.


Following the July 5th assault on our back-up page, we reverted back to our original Facebook page for the first time in three years.  The reason we established a back-up page and shifted content to it was for the very reason of repeated censorship strikes, that can lead to harsher measures.  Indeed, Karl now has some minor restrictions placed on his Facebook activity following this latest strike.

The 'offending' image in its entireity can be seen below, featuring Cllr Jones pictured alongside Angela Rayner and his vile quote...

18 STRIKES


In the social credit system espoused for us by globalist tyrants, we at BTLP would not be able to do a fat lot on Friday 5 July.  For that was the day that the Facebook censors attacked our backup page on an unprecedented scale.  Having spent weeks adding daily content to the page, Facebook swiped over a week's worth of content - and more - in one foul swoop.

The timing was very interesting, coming a day after the general election.  Did they deliberately hold off this mass cull until the election was over, thus avoiding any accusations of political interference?  Seems like a fair assumption.  The removed content dated back to June 15th.

This insidious act of censorship from a left-oriented big tech platform should come as no surprise, but we have never experienced it on this scale before.  We have had content removed in the past - that is, after all, why we have a backup page - but these previous 'violations' have always been isolated and singular.  We have never had multiple pieces of content swiped in one go, as we did on July 5th.

On that day, we were told that these 18 simultaneous 'violations' of Facebook's 'community standards' related to their rules on 'dangerous individuals and organisations'.  Really?

Firstly, Facebook would not identify which pieces of content they had removed, so we had to deduce this ourselves.  The most recent post they had removed was also the most telling, for it was merely a plea for donors and contained no political messaging at all.  On election day we shared our PayPal link alongside a message thanking supporters and asking if they would consider a small donation to help fund our ongoing campaign.  Who were the 'dangerous individuals and organisations' highlighted in this post?  It is simply preposterous.

Facebook removed our PayPal link.  Why?

Of the remaining 17 posts that were removed, 16 were original memes and there was one screenshot from X.  See if you can identify any 'dangerous individuals and organisations' from the deleted content published below...

A somewhat frivolous meme from election day.  The man in the
photo actually voted Green apparently, but is he dangerous?
Is Jeremy a dangerous individual?
If only!  Of these eight, unfortunately only Penny Mordaunt
lost her seat.  All these disciples of Davos and Bilderberg are
undoubtedly dangerous, but that's not the reason Facebook
censored this
Sadiq Khan enthusiastically embraced 'Pride' again, at odds with the culture
in which he was raised.  Khan and some of the freaks in this picture are
definitely dangerous
Another frivolous effort, but who or what is dangerous here?
A previously unpublished meme that Karl dug up from 2021.
It's fair to say there is one highly dangerous individual here, but
we are raising awareness - not promoting him!
There are neither dangerous individuals or organisations to speak of here. 
Whereabouts is this Westminster constituency of Palestine?  Indeed, but election
results show that  distant foreign wars are now a  major factor in our democracy
This was originally published in 2022, wasn't censored at the
time and is still online.  However, its unedited re-post in
2024 was apparently too dangerous
A jovial election post, featuring two potentially very dangerous
Game of Thrones characters (who are not real)
Keir Starmer is clearly a danger, he supported all that
scamdemic bunkum
Warning the British public about the bona fide danger of the
trans agenda should not be censored
David Tennant and Goodfellas, equally dangerous one might argue
How dare this ignorant black woman push back against
woke actor David Tennant, it must be totally dangerous
and she should just disappear (Facebook agrees)
A trio of very dangerous clowns, now running the country
Having, but not owning being a key word here.  Anyone who
points out who will be doing most of the having is apparently
very dangerous
Another re-post, originally from 2021, that is now deemed 'dangerous'
in 2024.  The absurdity is off the scale at this point
This final piece is very interesting, because it is the only material Facebook went
back beyond June 25th and deleted.  In fact, they went back another ten days and
ignored all the material posted between those dates just to get this David Icke
tweet taken down.  Very interesting...

Having now seen the censored material for yourselves, do you think Facebook did the right thing?  If you do, then you're on the wrong website.  The stifling of our speech threatens all speech and that is why we do not want to see left-wing pages closed down and/or censored - they have just as much right to exist as we do.  In a real democracy, built on Western values and freedom of expression, there should be no place for this totalitarian one-sided censorship.

Unfortunately, that is where we are now and that is the direction of travel on all establishment platforms - from MSM to social media giants like Facebook and YouTube.  Against this insidious background, Elon Musk's transformation of Twitter into the free speech platform X cannot be praised highly enough.

BEN BANNED (AGAIN)

One of America's leading conservative cartoonists has been targeted by the socialist mafia of Silicon Valley yet again.  Ben Garrison was one of the Trump supporters expelled from Twitter and Facebook at the same time the US president was famously banned.  However, like ourselves, Ben and his cartoonist wife Tina had a backup page on Facebook they used in the event of such censorship.  It had a much smaller following, which they had significantly increased since their main page was quashed in January 2021.

On Monday the Garrisons' backup page was also banned by Facebook.

Oddly, it wasn't any of Ben's frequent references to the dastardly Covid jabs that triggered the tech giant into action.  It was a cartoon from 2012 that had been re-shared (see below), featuring a critique of the fluoridation of public water supplies (a process that has divided scientists ever since it was first used in 1945).


Only 25 countries across the entire world artificially introduce fluoride into their water supplies, including several regions in the UK.  Most Brits currently do not consume artificially fluoridated water, but last year moves were made to transfer powers from local authorities to central government, with the aim of nationwide coverage - on the advice of the chief medical officers, including none other than big pharma shill Professor Chris Whitty.  Facebook's motives for silencing the Garrisons don't look so strange now.

Ben responded to the latest ban: "Our cartoon pages are gone from Facebook forever, thanks to an anti-free speech tyrant named Zuckerberg.  He’s more aligned with the communist Chinese than he is real Americans.  Zuckerberg is a traitor."

Hear, hear.

Thankfully, the advent of alternative social media platforms mean the Garrisons can never be totally silenced online.  They are active on Gab, Parler and Truth Social.  They also have their own website - GrrrGraphics.  They are still on Instagram, although probably not for much longer as the site is owned by Zuckerberg's Meta tech empire.

Here's a selection of Ben and Tina's recent efforts...

Ben's response to the January 2021 big tech assault on Trump supporters and the
free speech alternative Parler
The climate scam is a regular feature in Ben's cartoons
One of Tina's cartoons, tackling the climate scam and one of its pushers, Bill Gates
The descent of Disney into wokery
Ben takes no prisoners when it comes to the far left
Big pharma shill Dr Fauci was a frequent target of Ben's work during the pandemic
Tina depicts Fauci and Biden rolling out the clot shots to American children
The Garrisons steadfastly opposed lockdowns, vaccines and mandates - and the
leaders who imposed them (including Boris)
Biden's embrace of conflict marked a return to the destabilising geopolitics absent
during the Trump years
Ben's solution to the globalist mess is the return of President Trump
