Apparently FB has decided that me making a post on FB that has a reference back to my blog www.pharmaciststeve.com with information that is new or has a answer to something that someone else has posted on FB and the blog post that I reference had some information that applies to their question.
I tried to find out what they had determined what they considered violating their community standards and of course, the link “SEE OPTIONS” they used went NO WHERE…

Last night I tried to post a comment which included a link to this post
7 million awarded to family of man who killed himself after pain medication denied
and as I hit the enter key… the post showed up with a RED BOX around it and said that they would not let it be posted …. so I took the link out of the comment to my blog post and inserted the link to the TV station article https://www.wdrb.com/news/7-million-awarded-to-family-of-man-who-killed-himself-after-pain-medication-denied/article_92db6b14-09c0-11ec-b39b-7b711a46b1c7.html And my comment was allowed to post !!
Since I have been using the same posting processes for all TEN YEARS that my blog has existed… apparently FB has established some NEW POLICIES
So maybe me doing this may be interrupting FB revenue stream. I guess that Zukerberg need all the money he can get to fund the name change to META ?
I tried to take a screen shot of those notices and it came up as a BLANK SQUARE… but… my phone has a camera and the FB was being displayed on my laptop. I guess that FB figures that everyone uses their system on their only smart phone, pad or only have one computer available to them at one time.
At this point in time, I am not sure what I am going to do… I don’t get any money from advocating for the chronic pain community and the community seems to be even more and more divided and in fighting seems to have ramped up even more than ever in the last couple of months.
For now, I am going to continue my blog until the first of the year… and disappear from FB, Twitter & LinkedIN as of tomorrow !
I own the domain www.pharmaciststeve.com and NO ONE HAS CENSORSHIP over what I post on this website/blog… nor has the ability to take down my posts – EXCEPT ME !
Here is what I found via FB page as their definition of SPAM:
Policy Rationale
Do not:
- Post, share, engage with content or create accounts, Groups, Pages, Events or other assets, either manually or automatically, at very high frequencies.
- Attempt to or successfully sell, buy or exchange site privileges or product features, such as accounts, admin roles, permission to post, Pages, Groups, likes, etc., except in the case of clearly identified branded content, as defined by our Branded Content Policies.
- Require or claim that users are required to engage with content (e.g. liking, sharing) before they are able to view or interact with promised content.
- Encourage likes, shares, follows, clicks or the use of apps or websites under false pretenses, such as:
- Offering false or non-existent services or functionality(e.g. “Get a ‘Dislike’ button!”)
- Failing to direct to promised content (e.g. “Click here for a discount code at Nordstrom”; false play buttons)
- Directing users off of Facebook through the deceptive or misleading use of URLs, defined as:
- Cloaking. Presenting different content to Facebook users and Facebook crawlers or tools.
- Misleading content. Content contains a link that promises one type of content but delivers something substantially different.
- Deceptive pop-up websites. Websites that require an action (e.g. captcha, watch ad, click here) in order to view the expected landing page content and the domain name of the URL changes after the required action is complete.
- Like/share-gating. Landing pages that require users to like, share, or otherwise engage with content before gaining access to off-Facebook content.
- Deceptive landing page functionality. Websites that have a misleading user interface, which results in accidental traffic being generated (e.g. pop-ups/unders, clickjacking, etc.).
- Impersonation. The website pretends to be a reputable brand or service by using a name, domain or content that features typos, misspellings or other means to impersonate well-known brands using a landing page similar to another, trusted site to mislead visitors (e.g. www.faceb00k.com, www.face_book.com).
- And other behaviors that are substantially similar to the above.

But of course, our accounts are still able to be hijacked by imposters pretending to be us, and Facebook does NOTHING about it!!!
[…] Per FB: pharmaciststeve.com has been LABELED AS A SPAMMER […]
Pharmacist Steve this upsets me! I read most of your posts, and I appreciate everything you’ve done for me and others in these pain groups. I know you could sue FB and I wish that you would. In my opinion, the biggest obstacle is getting a judge that wouldn’t be biased about the first amendment.
I would move over to GETTR, there isn’t censorship there. Telegram is also a great place. Both sites would welcome you and you would have a larger reach.
We need u Steve, I have no idea what to do about this but please don’t leave us!! I have also got same for posting stuff for pain patients..I completely agree with you and with how u view things.
It’s a “final solution” at face-book and few honest persons will ‘survive’ it. Their tolerances are very very fine and they are completely in love with their own stupidity and represent the very most blind leading the want-to-be blind. I am sure they are just hanging themselves. I said long ago that we needed to prepare for this day. They arbitrarily froze my acct. months ago. What were our alternatives SM sites? I knew one that sounded good, but forgot.
Well don’t go because if the pain patients don’t need you every pharmacist on Earth DOES.
Besides, the quarter-back of the Cheese Head Nation has almost single-handedly, after the media was happy to condemn him at first knee-jerk reaction (tardive dyskinesia seems to run in every one of their program director’s genes) has seemed to have spoken so well since that “my body, my choice” may have been placed back on the table like few things have been placed there before.
There is a perfectly good and acceptable definition for this type of madness, it says; “Woe to those who are saying that good is bad and bad is good, those who are putting darkness for light and light for darkness, those who are putting bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!…”
Isaiah 5:20,21
Agree with ur comment and our government have been enforcing moses law for so long, and that’s why sin has increased, the law is mirror to show sin but does nothing to fix it..Praise God we have Jesus..
