&quot;...it is particularly frustrating as my personal FB account is tied to not only my Oculus library (which I can no longer access) but also my FB business page&quot;<p>Oof!

&gt; This is obviously a mistake and yet after I appealed the decision, FB has not changed their decision and I have no other options to appeal.<p>Once again on Facebook another &#x27;accident&#x27; by the &#x27;Nazi detector&#x27;. Once flagged and caught by their system there is no redemption for your account; even if it the context was just mentioning the name of a board game.<p>Their best bet is to cause a backlash on the internet to get their attention.<p>&gt; I am completely bewildered as to how to rectify this and it is particularly frustrating as my personal FB account is tied to not only my Oculus library (which I can no longer access) but also my FB business page.<p>Perhaps the algorithm was listening to &#x27;wolf whistles&#x27; and the moderators were still addicted to playing too much Wolfenstein VR to bother approving this user&#x27;s appeal. Or maybe the algorithm thinks everyone is guilty of being a &#x27;Secret Nazi&#x27; for driving a Volkswagen created by the German Labour Front. &#x2F;s
