My wife and I both just had our facebook pages deleted without warning, or reason given nor is there an option to appeal. My page built up since 2013 is also gone. The page was very helpful for me to raise awareness of my video content and was therefore part of my business.
There was nothing on there that went against their community standards. The page had no strikes at all. They have given up all pretence of reason, and are just unpersoning people without reason.
Contact Facebook UK to register a formal complaint by dialling their London telephone number 0203 386 6000 or email [email protected] to complain about what they did to me. Please also Tweet at facebook if you use that website. Gab is great but I just don't have the reach here I do on the mainstream platforms so I appreciate any help!

Hi, Tom - this is sad news, for sure. I think you are more prone to such shennanigans than other people I follow who have also fallen foul of FB and such sites becuase what you produce is digital and inherently reliant on platforms such as this, so that Gab/Minds and so on don't fill the gap. If you compare Marcus Follin, who has also been deplatformed from mainstream social media recently, he also sells his fitness products and clothing line, so while having his accounts cancelled is certainly inconvenient, he's in a stronger position to succeed inspite of it. The ur-example is Paul Waggener, whose new physical zine sold out in like 20 minutes, who puts a lot of effort into producing valuable, physical stuff.
Uuurgh - I hit enter before finishing what I was saying! I wanted to add - what can STJ create in the physical realm which will earn you money, and keep your ideas and work available to the people who are interested in the things you say? The most obvious answer from where I sit is a book. Your knowledge about Indo-European pre-history, paganism and so on is deep, but its also spread out over dozens of YouTube videos, by collating it into a physically attractive and accessible form you'd be onto a winner. I was listening to an old Paul Waggener YouTube video while I was making breakfast earlier today, where he pointed out that in order to earn a 6 figure income, all you have to do is produce stuff that 1000 people are willing to spend £100 on over the space of a year. Or 10,000 people spend £10 on. I'm sure that such an endeavour is within your abilities, and what you could offer would be that valuable to the rest of us.
