They have a screenshot of Facebook reviewing the post and deciding not to restore it, so I guess it isn’t just a buggy ML classifier (although it could be a buggy ML classifier combined with a human that doesn’t feel able to overturn it).

I don't think they actually ever review anything.

I've reported nazi content a number of times and it never violated the policy.

What you just did is a fallacy. That's fine, but it needs to be asked: what sort of "Nazi content" did you report?

If it was a user calling Trump a Nazi, then it should have been removed, and their moderation failed.

If it just espouses Nazi ideology or rhetoric, that's free speech in the US.

That's just how it is. It's part of this country. I have to listen to both the throaty, greasy growl of the white supremacist and the piercing howl of the victims wounded by words.

edit to add additional context: There's a difference between someone "posting" "nazi" content on facebook and here on HN, for example. on FB they figure you're seeing it because of your actions. Your friends, a group you joined, etc. If it's a friend posting on their wall, your moderation task is easy, block the friend, unfriend, talk to the friend, call them out. regardless of your decision, FB doesn't have any obligation or, i would argue, right to step in and moderate in those circumstances. If it's in a group, the moderators of the group have to decide if it represents the group. If it does and you disagree, leave the group.

Someone spouting nazi nonsense on HN is spouting it into a megaphone on the streetcorner, as it were. I have to read the content, even if i didn't actively follow that user or "join" that group.

there are different moderation strategies. merely invoking "nazi" as the boogyman to back up your point is fallacious.
