So apparently saying, "fuck off" on Facebook is bullying!

This asshat was being a jerk in one of my women's groups. Saying some blatantly misogynist things which Facebook allowed. But when I told him to fuck off, I got jail for bullying.

I could understand if I had told him to fuck himself, but saying "fuck off" is just a crude way to say, "go away!"

I HATE SCHMUCKERBERG!

The other person’s comments may have been as well, but FB (and DU) are within their rights to restrict such speech if they so choose.

I called a friend a “silly goose” once in a comment, and got a pop up asking me if I really wanted to post that, since it could be seen as “bullying.” What the actual FUCK?!??

I get Facebook has some real quirks but that’s not gonna fly on most websites — if reported. He’s probably a troll looking for those reactions so he can report.

I got put in jail on Twitter for telling some trumpanzee to “die mad about it”

On the other hand, it could just be a bot. Part of their recent attempts to clean up. I got warnings on Facebook over a 6 month old meme I posted - the one of Joe Biden with trump in a sleeper hold with the caption “who’s sleepy now b-tch?”
