Facebook suspends user 30 days for a meme highlighting the basic gun safety violations perpetrated by District Attorney Binger in an open courtroom during Kyle Rittenhouse's trial: A Twitter user shared a screenshot of his Facebook censorship notice. The user posted a meme titled "Spot the Difference" showing Kyle Rittenhouse during the Kenosha riots holding his AR-15 properly facing the ground, with his finger clearly on the side of the gun instead of the trigger, and District Attorney Binger holding one in an open courtroom, pointing it at people in the courtroom, with his finger on the trigger. According to the notice from Facebook after denying the user's appeal for what he stated was a 30 day suspension, the post violated Facebook's community standards, though the notice did not specify which one. The notice indicated that the user could appeal to the Oversight Board until November 30. Given that the post in no way made any claims about Rittenhouse and left users to make their own determination, it is unclear what was inappropriate about the image.
