Reported AI-Generated Image of Jewish Man With the Devil
UPDATED JUN 16, 2026
Summary Decision 2026-035-FB-UA
We welcome the Oversight Board's decision today, June 11, 2026, on this case, which deals with a Facebook post containing a digitally created image portraying a Jewish man laughing with the devil. The accompanying caption accuses Jewish people of enabling “evil force[s]” and blackmailing “politicians, media figures, and those in positions of supposed authority.”
Upon initial review, Meta left this content up. However, after the Board brought the case to our attention, we determined the content violates our Hateful Conduct policy, as laid out in the Meta Community Standards, and removed the content. Meta removes content that targets a person or group of people “on the basis of their protected characteristic[s] or immigration status in written or visual form” with “harmful stereotypes,” including “claims that Jewish people control financial, political or media institutions.”
There will be no further updates to this case.
