Facebook and anti-Semitism

Jewish Ritual MurderI have been avoiding this ongoing controversy concerning Facebook and Zuckerberg.
As far as I am concerned, Facebook is an Internet Golem that has bullied its way into our lives.
Zuckerberg, however, is not a wizard, but a businessman.
My friend, Neal, recently sent me this in an email:
Mike,
I’ve complained numerous times and still they refuse to admit its a classic anti-Semitic blood libel.
https://www.facebook.com/truthaboutjews/
I want to thank Neal for alerting me to this Facebook page because this is old-school stuff.
Classical straight-forward anti-Semitism, which that link goes to, has become more rare in recent decades as hypocritical left-leaning, BDS, anti-Semitic anti-Zionism has grown in popularity. They both claim to stand for social justice. Even the Nazis claimed to stand for social justice in the sense that they honestly believed that the Jews are evil and that sparing the world from us is in the best interest of all humanity.
In any case, facebook.com/truthaboutjews goes to a Facebook page entitled, Jewish Ritual Murder.
Catchy, dontcha think?
The following text is front-and-center:
Born March 22, 1684 - Died 20 April 1690
Saint Gabriel Belostoksky Гавриил Белостокский Born in family of pious Christians Peter and Anastasia, baptized him with the name of Saint Archangel Gabriel in the temple of the Holy Dormition in Zabludovskii Monastery.
One day mother left from house to bring lunch to her husband, jewish tenant use opportunity to abduct little Gabriel as soon was feast of Passover. He secretly tuck him in Bialystok lock up in basement where they torment little Gabriel, occult jews crucified him, with sharp instruments stabbed his body to release blood after nine days of torture Gabriel died in his six year of life.
Occult jews throw Gabriel body into a field at the edge of the forest near the village Zverkov in expectation that dogs will eat his body on their misery the dogs who found body they didn’t rend it but on their barking villagers found the body of a martyr.
Occult jews where found and punished and people deeply moved by such atrocities buried body of martyred baby in church graveyard after many miracles on his grave church pronounce him in saint. Today his incorruptible body lying in the St. Nicholas Cathedral in Bialystok his day of celebration is 20 April (3 May at Julian calendar)
"Occult jews"?
Now, this is great stuff because it is right out of the Middle Ages. The guy who runs this Facebook page - bless his soul - is spreading the word that Jews like to torture and murder innocent Christian children and is doing so straight out of the fourteenth-century.
Jewish people in the West have not heard much of this kind of wacky and dangerous jibber-jabber in quite awhile.
So, Neal has been banging on Facebook's door and this is the response that he received:
Thanks for your feedback
Thank you for taking the time to report something that you feel may violate our Community Standards.
Reports like yours are an important part of making Facebook a safe and welcoming environment.
We reviewed the Page you reported for displaying hate speech and found it doesn't violate our Community Standards. (Emphasis my own.)
Please let us know if you see anything else that concerns you. If you want us to look at something specific on a Page, be sure to report the content (ex: photo), not the entire Page. We want to keep Facebook safe and welcoming for everyone. 
The ignorance and callousness of the digirati could hardly be more obvious.
What Facebook is telling us is that even the most classic forms of Medieval anti-Semitism do not violate their community standards.
