Anti-male feminists are complaining that Facebook is banning them for posts calling men \u201cscum.\u201d<\/h2>\n

In a Daily Beast article, writer Taylor Lorenz questioned why the platform has started to ban people for attacking men.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen comic Marcia Belsky sarcastically replied \u2018men are scum\u2019 to a friend\u2019s Facebook post back in October, she never anticipated being banned from the platform for 30 days. That was exactly what happened,\u201d Lorenz reported. \u201cBelsky was shocked at the severity of the punishment considering her relatively innocuous comment, and immediately spoke to her fellow female friends about the ordeal. They could relate. In the wake of the #MeToo movement, countless women have taken to Facebook to express their frustration and disappointment with men and have been promptly shut down or silenced, banned from the platform for periods ranging from one to seven days.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lorenz explained that posts expressing \u201cmen ain\u2019t shit,\u201d \u201call men are ugly,\u201d and \u201call men are allegedly ugly\u201d had also resulted in sanctions on the social network.<\/p>\n

According to the Daily Beast, \u201cIn late November, after the issue was raised in a private Facebook group of nearly 500 female comedians, women pledged to post some variation of \u2018men are scum\u2019 to Facebook on Nov. 24 in order to stage a protest. Nearly every woman who carried out the pledge was banned.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI personally posted men are scum in November and I received a seven-day ban,\u201d complained comedian Alison Klemp. \u201cIt\u2019s still ongoing. Two days and 23 hours left\u2026 It wasn\u2019t the best protest because it clearly didn\u2019t work.\u201d<\/p>\n

Following complaints, Facebook explained that sexism violates their community standards.<\/p>\n

\u201cA Facebook spokesperson said that the statement was an attack and hate speech toward a protected group and so it would rightfully be taken down,\u201d reported Lorenz, adding that \u201cwhite men are listed as a protected group by the platform.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the complaints, Facebook has routinely censored more innocent content, which the Daily Beast has frequently ignored.<\/p>\n

A gay magazine critical<\/a> of Islam, an iconic statue<\/a> of Neptune, a famous Vietnam war image<\/a>, and Pamela Geller<\/a> have all be previously censored and sanctioned by Facebook.<\/p>\n

Last year, it was also revealed<\/a> that Facebook deleted 100,000 posts by German users containing \u201chate.\u201d<\/p>\n
