Where’s the Dolly Dancing Girl Award?
As per usual, posting blind and behind!
Transom Friend has come up with another article which she chunked over the transom for me.
It regards FB and social media tyranny, and how they are doing it. There are a lot of pictures in the article, because the writer is telling his story by using the actual FB screen shots, so I’m including only an opening excerpt to get you started:

“I am a regular Facebook user. Not a typical one, I expect. You’ll see only an occasional family picture post from me, and absolutely no photos of kittens. No, nor those little “Hallmark Card” (as I call them) posts, either – the touchy-feely “feel good” ones with Snoopy, rainbows, hearts, unicorns, and flowers along with a bit of “ain’t life sweet” poetry.
No, I post different types of things. Themed postings under titles such as “My Morning Read” – often a thoughtful post, not a few of which are links to articles here on American Thinker. Or shorter posts, often with irony, under the heading “My Daily Uh Huh.”
Some weeks back, a Facebook friend – someone I never met face to face but with whom I share several interests including a love of traditional Western values and music-making – wrote to say he had a received a message from Facebook with a few short questions about whether or not he found my Facebook posts positive and encouraging or the opposite.
His response, he said, was positive, and I heard nothing more on the subject. But I was then aware that on some level I had come to the attention of Facebook’s thought police. Thus, what happened to me this morning was less than a complete surprise.
Since this is a Facebook story, I will tell it with Facebook postings – mine as well as theirs....”
