Facebook has restricted a post by the Irish Catholic newspaper about the Dublin Airport chaplain being prepared to bless aircraft, flagging it for potential violence and incitement concerns.
Another post, discussing Catholic schools defending faith-based programmes, was flagged for potential hate speech violations.
Facebook’s hate speech definition includes attacks based on race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender, and disabilities, but the exact standards breached in these cases are unclear. A review has been requested but no response has been received.
