    I'm probably on some kind of global blacklist or something.

    ROTFL!

    Yeah, that must be it.

    "Hey guys, watch out for this Aaron guy. His well-articulated and substantiated discoveries threaten our fight to gain global control. Can we find out where he is getting all this evidence? He's too smart for us. We have to stop him."

    My guess is, that you just did what you always do: talking shit.

    Maybe! LOL But more likely, they have a database of people who aren't brainwashed by the media, and people in that database are undesirable by social networks. They don't want people talking about the truth, they only want people who will parrot the lies.

    They asked me to "Upload a verification selfie." I'm being totally serious, an
    I know that sounds ridiculous. So I uploaded a photo of myself (not a selfie but a photo that someone else took of me) and they said "You were asked to upload a selfie and you have not complied and now your account is permanently suspended."

    Sounds like someone maybe hacked your account and used it for bot posting.

    Also, I hope you made sure you were on facebook.com, or their official app, before sending them any photos.

    I concur. That's the most likely reason.

    However, it's usually some crypto trader or similar who is the hijacker. It has happened to me a couple of times that a friend suddenly starts DMing me with recommendations for all kinds of crazy stuff.

    Reasonably easy to recognize. Unless you live in a paranoia bubble where everyone from the Deep State is after you.

    I've never seen anyone doing it for bot activities, though. Not much money to make there.

    How does demanding the user to "upload a selfie" resolve that issue?

    I feel violated.

    It was definitely facebook.com. I don't think there was anything posted at all. I didn't have any friends added, so I had no audience to speak to anyway. I searched for some people, but didn't send any friend requests.

    It's weird. I read stories around the net about other people having a similar experience.

    That could also be why they singled your account out as a possible bot. It
    was set up but no friends added would be unusual.

    How would they know your political leanings if you never posted anything?

    If they delete accounts for not having friends added, then that's sleazy of them. They expect too much from their users. Zuckerberg should try running a BBS first.

    Bjorn thinks I'm crazy, but I suspect that the left is keeping a database of Americans who have yet to drink the kool aid. They could figure me out by looking at ballot that I've cast, by my posts on revolver.news, or by spying on my gmail account or other internet activities, or by spying on my phone calls and/or text messages. I'm probably "the biggest threat to homeland security." <jk>

    Put on a tin foil hat for a second and hear me out: the left wants our money more than anything else in the world, so why wouldn't they start jotting down names?

    They are probably concerned those accounts are not real people and will later start spamming public groups, etc. I am in a few public groups and that happens regularly. People who appear to have no friends will start spamming the group.

    Well, there are ways you could get on their radar... they think you were at 1/6 would be one. If you are Tulsi Gabbard, you can get put on a suspicious flyer list just by being critical of Kamala Harris in public.
