Technically, most of the censorship is automatic now in that Facebook staff input the parameters, the keywords, the images, the videos, the links, the specific things, that they choose to ban, delete, flag, hide, etc. Now, in the past, most of the censorship was manual in that people would click on the report button to flag the posts, the comments, the messages, etc, which would notify the moderators who would then delete those things in most cases if you are a conservative posting the stuff and generally ignore the flags, the reported content, if you're a leftist. Like a free pass, a double standard. Well, based on my own observations, most of the censorship is automatic now and is constantly updated. They continue to add new things onto their ban list. Sadly, they probably keep the ban list private. But if they wanted to be honest, they would keep their ban list public so that we could make sure we don't put any of those things onto Facebook. It is that simple. If they want us not to do it, then they should tell us not to do it. Common sense 101 lol.
