Another arbitrary and capricious action by a tech giant

 PJ Media:

Facebook Demonetizes Babylon Bee, Saying ACB Monty Python Joke 'Incites Violence'

The action by Facebook operatives is as ridiculous as it looks.

...

 “In what universe does a fictional quote as part of an obvious joke constitute a genuine incitement to violence?” the CEO asked. “How does context not come into play here? They’re asking us to edit the article and not speak publicly about internal content reviews. Oops, did I just tweet this?”

Dillon told PJ Media that the Babylon Bee expected Facebook to reverse its actions once a person reviewed the article.

Facebook is the one that needs to reverse its actions but its operation is not one that provides due process for someone targetted by the scolds.
