He should count his lucky stars. Just think if he had really gone rogue and denied man made glow bull climate disruption. Lock up for you. Kinda like the pre-printed placard some assclown was holding the other day stating if you didn't join the protest for "just-us" you automatically were siding with the 'oppressors'. Or something absurd like that. Ever think maybe someone is busy trying to earn a living and better their lives? Didn't think so.

Proves my point that Facebook is nothing but a thought control/mind control tool of the global elite.

Black communists will allow no deviation from the script.

Soon if you don’t have a Facebook page with leftist stuff on it you will become a second class citizen.

I went to a friend’s family event over the weekend, and everyone there appeared to be addicted to Facebook.

At any one time, 50% of the people were looking at some kind of device looking at Facebook. I use computers, but not when I am with people expecting me to interact with them.

They looked at me like I was an alien when I said I refuse to use Facebook. Or Twitter. Or anything like that.

Granted, I do Freep, but not when I am around other people.

Facebook addiction is a real serious threat.

It feeds mental illness because people with issues hook up with other people who have issues, and completely detach from the real world. Without that to help keep them on the rails they spiral downward quickly as the sick reinforce the sick.

It’s also a marriage destruction machine, now mentioned in over half of divorce filings. Facebook is Evil!!

"...everyone there appeared to be addicted to Facebook."

Trying to have a conversation with another human being these days is just impossible.
I have pinged a work colleague on FB just to get his f'ing attention for two seconds.
Sad state of affairs.

Oh, and Twitter was specifically designed to expedite the organization of BLM-style mobs IMHO. It’s tailor made for that.

Thoughtcrime. Writecrime. Speechcrime.

It’s here. Before long, we can expect Facecrime, if you make a face when someone mentions the Dear Leader or BLM and you grimace.

You should always keep electrical tape over the camera lens on your laptop.

I just put family stuff on there as a way of keeping current with people who live out of town.

I wouldn't think of putting anything political or controversial on there.

A black run police department demotes a white officer for criticism of a black movement based upon lies and dedicated to rebellion.

I'm a white, middle-aged male. Second Class would be an upgrade. But I still ain't getting a FB account.

With this example in mind imagine if all police departments are run by blacks. People simply cannot grasp the fact that blacks resent whites and want total control. Are the Democrats using them or are well controlled blacks using the Democrats?
