From reader Carol Sawyer: “I had it up as a post for 12 hours, but no-one could see it!” We asked, did that mean Facebook were censoring it?

“Yes, or the NZ government, as this one is an NZ issue. Remember when Facebook gave them that right and ability during Covidiocy? I presume they still have it. It happens to me all the time, so I post as a comment but sometimes I still just test the waters first. Facebook doesn’t seem to like Substack either.”
