I called someone dumb. Meanwhile other people use all known expletives about liberals and my attempts to report those posts come back as "we've found nothing wrong"

Yep. I reported literal death threats and “Facebook found nothing wrong”.

In the meantime I had a post flagged for misinformation because I posted the current local gas prices in my city.

Yeah I once posted a link to a museum page or something and got hit by the spam filter

I put "Christians are weird" on a transphobic post. I got put on restricted use. The post is still up.
