My account got unjustifiably suspended again for the 4th time

You may have seen my post on here before but here I am again. My channel is dedicated to science. I post original contents taken from my experiments in the lab with the aim to inspire the next generation of scientists. It's all cells and cancer biology. I also committed to be a platform to help students. Over the course of a few months, Instagram's AI keeps suspending my account accusing it of "child abuse", which is the most absurd thing ever. I appealed and got mine back each time but this time, it's been 4 days now and there was no update whatsoever. I'm absolutely distraught because I've spent so much time building it up, and students have reached out and tell me how much they enjoy it, and how much it has helped them. A day or 2 before this suspension, I was in a talk with a high school teacher telling her that I'm more than happy to promote the work that her and her students have done. And I think this was the trigger to their AI.

I'm just so tired of fighting this multibillion corporation that can't even have a decent functioning and accurate AI system that they claim to have. And there is no way for me to even reach a human reviewer, if they even have one in their office anymore. Meta and Instagram just don't seem to care. I'm just an academic who loves science.
