I reported many an individual in my final days on facebook. None ever resulted in a suspension as far as I could tell. Facebook sucks. I get a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach even thinking about going on it. I do enjoy the screen caps that are posted here on the individual SAV entries.
I have a self-imposed time out that's going on 649 days now. Back when I was a regular user (10+ years) I never received a timeout. My husband did get a twitter suspension for commenting "hang 'em high" on some tweet about some school shooter or something (can't remember precisely).
I actually stopped using Facebook & Twitter.
I kept being suspended for telling racists & neo-nazis to drink bleach.
You should all checkout the fediverse.
During the 1990's, when Amazon had a place for commenting on reviews, I had a multi-paragraph comment automatically removed the instant I tried to post it.
I did not type anything vulgar or insulting at all. I tried to remember what I had written and try to figure out what might have caused the automatic removal. Suddenly, I figued it out. My comment included a reference to "The Dick Van Dyke Show", and one of those words was automatically flagged as vulgar.
The primitive software used by Amazon at the time was obviously programmed to instantly delete any post that includes any of the words designated as vulgar. The same would have happened if I had mentioned the name of the original host of "American Bandstand" or a famous whale from a novel by Herman Melville.
I caught a 30-day ban for posting a meme of the hypodermic needle saying, “fuck it, die then!” last year. I couldn’t do Facebook Live or Facebook Marketplace for 30 days and I couldn’t join new groups. I don’t do any of those things, so I didn’t really notice.
I got a Twitter time-out for calling some GOP reptile a moldy old crust of bread. Apparently calling someone “old” is hate speech even if they look like the Cryptkeeper’s grandfather.
That meme you described is a very popular one. I've seen it on Facebook many times. The fact that it results in "Facebook jail" in one instance and not in others proves my point: Facebook's rules are vague and unpredictable. Account suspensions happen at the arbitrary whims of individual Facebook cops, who bring their own personal prejudices and biases to the job.
I never had a suspension but I caused a few. Every time my crazy cousin posted wacky medical or political disinformation, I'd report her. Then she'd be screaming about the nazi censors @ Facebook. It was a hoot for a while but it got old. Dumped my account.
I, literally, was on 30 days suspension for 1/2 of my 11 years of existence on that fascist pile of shit. After a couple of years of making duplicate accounts they tied them all together Abdblocjked them all! When I was 2 days from my last 30 day suspension being over, they suspended for another 30 days over this meme posted on a trump asshole sucking treasonous pro trump post! It was 3 months old. that was it, cut all ties with them. Fuck them
Facebook flagged this meme as "hate speech"...
Facebook flagged this meme as "bullying"...
Facebook flagged this meme as "covid misinformation"...
I don't remember the specified reason this meme was flagged, but my best guess is that it was interpreted as advocating violence...
Also, Facebook once suspended me for a post that read as follows:

Zero times. However, I was once warned about mocking religious freaks. 🙄
Also, fuck all things Meta. FB is a cesspool now.

I’ve had 2 or 3. I created a fake page to do the posting now. Surprisingly, it has only gotten jailed once for a few days.
