I run a business from one of those three and casually use social media from the other two.
Why do I need so many accounts you ask?
Because my main account, which operates under the name Artemis M Benn, is under constant attack for "Violating Facebook Community Standards" mainly at the hands of angry men, and spiteful caucasian women.

| Do me a favour, copy and paste the following and post it, "Your disposition is shockingly typical, but still wrong. Stay out of urban areas and stay safe in your lil cliques. We don't want you or ppl who think like you near our families." tag @Artemis M Benn and let's see if you get banned. |
No vulgarity, just a response to her telling someone to take a bunch of men into an urban community in order to force the locals to do as she pleases.
But, I'm now accustomed to white women punishing me via Facebook's moderation tools.
Don't get me wrong, white men do it as well, they say out the way shit, I respond, I hurt their feelings, then the next thing I know "Please Log In", but when I encounter white women, on a disagreement over privilege and how they approach minorities? It almost ALWAYS ends in them "Race Dialing" the "FB Police" on me for not giving them the floor to be their daintiest and most entitled.
Now we've been having this conversation for a minute, about the fact that Facebook has been intentionally silencing black voices, especially the voices who speak out most loudly against racial injustice.
With the most recent discussion reaching all the way to USA Today earlier in 2019, in an article written by Jessica Guynn, featuring AfAm school teacher, Carolyn Wysinger discussing how we're punished for discussing racial issues, or standing up to perpetrators of racial trolling meanwhile the hate speech they perpetuate goes unpunished after they report us, or the moderation bots auto filter our accounts.
Now you see where things seem to go wrong, is this whole bit about "Community Standards".
According to what was updated in 2013- "The official stated purpose of Facebook is to make the world more open and connected. Facebook's latest mission statement is that people use Facebook to stay connected with friends and family, discover what's going on in the world and share and express what matters to them."
Except, unless of course, you're expressing what matters to you in a way that distresses "The Community".
And they're very specific about who exactly their community members are.
having been banned six different times at 30 days each last year alone, for offenses ranging from calling someone a dumb ass white boy, to quoting back to a racist what they were saying, changing the nouns to reflect on them, sending a screenshot of someone's racist tirade to a public post... I'm positive Black People who refuse to behave are NOT included in the Community that requires safeguarding.
White women who advise their friends to use strong arm intimidation on urban communities to get them to behave, white men who call black women nigga bitches, and white teenagers who get to say nigga because rap songs say it's okay, that's their community.
NOT. US. NIGGA. FOLK.
I really shouldn't have such high expectations of the online white community, should I?
