My post about a frog meme got removed for 'hate speech' on a major platform last Tuesday...
The image was just a cartoon frog looking confused with text about a common internet joke, and a moderator told me 'the character itself is now considered a hate symbol' which feels like they're banning ideas, not just content, so what does that mean for joking around online anymore?

the character itself" is wild, they're banning drawings now?

Got hit with a similar takedown last month for an old fanart piece. Appealed it by showing my original sketches and the public character references I used. Took a couple of days, but they restored it. The automated systems are way too broad sometimes.

Man that's rough but I'm glad you got it sorted out!
