Facebook Doesn't Care About Black Women




The community standards set forth by Facebook are supposed to protect everyone... unless you're a Black woman. Recently read an article about a Black woman who was receiving death threats on Facebook and Twitter after saying she felt uncomfortable in a Cracker Barrel surrounded by white folks. Did Facebook do anything about the abuse she was receiving? Nah, but they did suspend her account for three days after she posted screenshots of how Facebooks community standards do NOTHING to protect black women from a mob of angry white people. 

I, too, have had my fair share of run ins with the horribleness of white men and Facebooks lack of concern for MY safety. I recently posted an article about how there was a law in NC about women not being able to back out of sex once it was underway. I captioned the post "Me. Are Trash" 

A few minutes later, that same post was taken down because it didn't go along with the community standards of Facebook-- you can't say MEN ARE TRASH but there's laws out here that protect men from making trash ass decisions that affect women.
 
So I immediately make a post about how silly Facebook is for making me take down the post when Men truly are trash and should be held accountable for their actions. And GUESS WHAT?!?!!

Yes. Weeks later Facebook once again removed something I posted. But that's not the kicker- I was banned from posting anything for 24hrs 🙄 
Yes bitch. Facebook doesn't care about what I have to say in regards to men. I've seen countless racist memes, videos of black bodies being killed by the hands of cops, porn and gross depictions of a man ejaculating on black womens faces, been called a nigger simply for having an opinion about this trash ass Trump administration-- but I report that content to no avail. They stay there for everyone to gawk at. So you know what?? FUCK FACEBOOK. Anything to protect men. This whole country was designed for women, especially minority women, to fail. So I'm no longer giving trash ass Facebook my beautiful commentary. It's now just to house memories from high school and college days. Fuck Facebook. FUCK IT ALL.
