Yeah you're correct with what's going on, a lot of comments on here are missing the mark. Facebook and their subsidiaries operate in many countries where it's literally illegal to be LGBT, and women's rights are not the greatest. So they definitely have a "flexible" moderation policy so that they can operate globally in those countries. Most people in the US and Europe won't even notice because they're never going to go on Ugandan or Saudi Arabian facebook communities, for instance. And in the reverse, most users from Syria or Iraq for instance aren't going to see the European anti immigration Facebook communities. And in the rare cases there is crossover, mass reported comments get removed as you said.
This is not a defense of this practice by the way, just an explanation.
