Guess
which of the pictures below violates Facebook Community Values and
will get you blocked.
Have you guessed yet? Examine each one carefully! Which one is the most salacious, which one is the least? Your average 12 year old boy would have no trouble answering this question.
The answer is image number 2 from Lifeforce (1985). This is the image that got me blocked from Facebook for 24 hours. The other two caused no problems with their totally automated, perfectly insane, AI guardian of public morality.
Pretty wacky, huh?
When you consider that Facebook also owns Tumblr, the very home of twisted pornography on the Internet, the mind achieves a unique state of Zen like incomprehension.
[My friend Jerry Weil informs me that there was a huge brouhaha about "nipples" on Facebook and so he knew immediately which picture was the offending one. Well, me bad, I had missed this important social dialectic entirely but it reinforces my opinion: Facebook is not very sophisticated here, they are in fact, holding back my real feelings, near moron-like stupid.]

Notes:
1. For those of you who are coming into this late, my objection is not to Facebook's removing images, my objection is to how they handle it, the lack of human communication, and the extreme punishment system which is probably malfunctioning. You are welcome to read the forums if you want to see what other people think of this Facebook system. Be prepared to read many swear words.
2. The other two pictures are (1) the famous Vampirella of comic book fame and (3) a still from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2.
