The transsexual Libertarian candidate for Cheshire County Sheriff for 2018 has been put in “Facebook Jail” with a seven-day ban for “hate speech”. Aria DiMezzo, the “Anarchist Shemale”, had video recorded of her in the Keene, NH Gamestop where she tore off her jacket in parody of a recent viral video.
The video DiMezzo was parodying involved a hulking trans person who made an outrageous scene at an Albuqueque, NM Gamestop over being called “sir”. In that video, the brutish Tiffany Michelle bellows at the poor Gamestop employee and kicks over a display while storming around and shouting profanities. As the original, now-viral video begins, Michelle was upset with the Gamestop returns process then flips out on another customer for using “sir” when referring to Michelle and turns and targets the Gamestop employee when he referred to both customers as “guys”.
DiMezzo made her parody video to counter the perception that all trans people are as easily offended as the ridiculous Michelle. She told me in an interview for Free Keene, “It was to show that not all trans people behave that way and that her behavior was more a reflection of her character than her being trans. Because the stereotype has grains of truth in it, I’m now in facebook jail because said people don’t know how to take a joke.” Keene’s Gamestop staff appreciated the humor and the DiMezzo’s video ends with a handshake with the clerk.After DiMezzo posted the video to her Facebook page, she was given a seven day ban within 24 hours for “hate speech” and the video was pulled down by Facebook. DiMezzo appealed the decision and Facebook admitted they were wrong to consider the video as “hate speech” and restored the video, while bizarrely leaving her account banned.
If you’re looking to escape Facebook, you can follow DiMezzo’s account over on the decentralized Mastodon social media network. Also, check out our previous article showing multiple alternatives far more useful for communication than Facebook.
I spent last month on a ban for content they took down, then put back up when i appealed it, but they did not end the ban. Same as Arial.
Good reason to just quit. Facebook is dead anyway. It’s numbers have been in decline for a while now. If I were on it I’d have left ages ago.
And why is Free Keene taking up for transomethings, Muslims et al? Because Free Keene has gone “LIBERAL”, that’s why! The tipoff is that it refers to DiMezzo as “she”. The very category of “Bigotry, Corruption, Haters” shows the group’s stumping to win political correctness points: on merely noticing it for the first time you know it’s only going to be applied in ways that would make Orca Winfrey evince ecstasy. “Not all trans people behave that way” and not all Muslims are mini-Mohammeds, but both groups happen to represent serious threats to liberty in all societies stupid enough to… Read more »
Oh yeah, real appropriate behavior. So this person was running for sheriff? DiMezzo needs to develop a backbone and thick skin. Not everyone is going to recognize DiMezzo as a woman. If DiMezzo were a sheriff, the behaviors exhibited would show an out of control violent out of control person. If DiMezzo is going to flip out on facebook and violate their rules, then facebook has the right to shut down the site. DiMezzo needs serious psychiatric help.
Now Jacks honey, don’t you think Facebook’s making a mountain out of a molehill here? After all, this was obviously a parody video and not a psychotic break. I’m sure you saw the two shake hands at the end like the rest of us did, now didn’t you pookums?
This jumping jacks retard doesn’t understand what parody means
Coincidentally, neither does Mark Wolf.
1488andy – “This jumping jacks retard doesn’t understand what parody means” Apparently you enjoy watching unstable people like that go off the deep end. there is no “parody”. Just some substance abuse person who tried to run for sheriff but doesn’t have the emotional intelligence to hold such an office.
Doubling down, Jacks my dear? So far you’ve only managed to prove that 1488andy is right about you.
