Facebook had banned filmmakers from promoting or advertising their Holocaust movie “Beautiful Blue Eyes”.
Facebook claims the movie’s title violates its policy against content that “includes direct or indirect assertions or implications about a person’s race”.
The question is, what assertions or implications about a person’s race does the title make or infer?
Facebook has so far refused to explain, other than to double down by responding to an appeal by stating:
“After a requested review of your Facebook account, we confirmed it didn’t comply with our Advertising Policies or other standards”.
The movie’s title is a reference to the eye color of a child who perished at the hands of Nazis in the film.
