Is it time for you to delete your Facebook account permanently? This guy thinks so, and his arguments may just convince you. You should take a moment to hear what he has to say and then decide for yourself.

HOW did you delete your account? I’ve been trying (off and on) to figure out how that’s done since I signed up.

It’s relatively easy to “suspend” it, but actually *delete* it? I’ve never seen anything where that can be accomplished.

I heard it’s in the “help” area (as editor-surveyor said) buried as a tiny link in the terms of service (I think). But WHERE? I’ve looked pretty hard and I can’t find it (although granted it’s been a while).

Any help from anyone is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've never been on FaceBook, never had an account, and, in fact, my computers are self-blocked from even accessing FaceBook or any FaceBook associated websites.

It's the same with Twitter and all other social media sites.

I remember it being complicated and taking a while for them to actually delete the account. They really don't want you to so they don't make it easy on purpose. It's been about a year since I did it and I can't possibly remember how or where exactly. I'm sure it would be where you manage your account, though.

One thing I learned is after you do delete if you go back to FB even just to browse someone else’s page it will kick your account back to active. I make sure I have noting ever to do with anything FB so they don't try to activate me again but I'm pretty sure they deleted it because it said in 30 days (I think it was 30) the account would automatically delete.

I hope that helps a little and good luck.

You have to click on a link in help that offers investigating deleting the account.

Galt.io has a couple of problems:

-The fact that you have to be invited by another member is generally a good principle that keeps out idiot moonbats, but does exclude conservatives, especially younger ones, who are surrounded by liberalism. I suppose it’s your own fault if you don’t know conservatives and are 18 or older, though (not being sarcastic here).
-I’m assuming the site is Objectivist, and not conservative. Objectivist literature is great to read on why the nanny welfare state is Communist, but seem to be indifferent, ignorant, or supportive of America’s criminals and deviants, given that they do not have a reasonable moral foundation.

I saw one of them DVD thingies at the store last week when I bought my VCR. How do you rewind those?

DVD Rewinder. Best not to wear out the components in your DVD player.
