Outline
Circulating Facebook messages featuring a photograph of Hereford UK’s Poppy Man sculpture claim that the Facebook is removing the image and we should therefore ‘share the hell out of it’ to thwart Facebook’s supposed political agenda.
Brief Analysis
The claims are nonsense. Images of the sculpture appear in many different posts on Facebook and have been there for many months. Facebook is not taking down the images nor is there any reason why the company would do so. These bogus ‘Facebook removing a picture’ posts are usually just callous attempts to promote particular Facebook Pages or Profiles.
