Meta’s Oversight Board is reviewing posts related to political violence in Venezuela

The posts are related to Venezuela’s post-election crisis.

Meta’s Oversight Board is reviewing two cases of posts on Facebook and Instagram related to political violence following Venezuela’s contested presidential election. Some protesters have been killed by security forces, and the Venezuelan human rights organization Foro Penal claims more than 1,500 people have been detained since the election. A second video on Instagram, which shows a woman telling members of a colectivo, “Go to hell, I hope they kill you all,” was not removed because Meta’s content moderators found it did not include a call to action.
