Some Facebook users have recently reported being sent warning messages from the social media giant relating to “extremists” or “extremist content.”...others reported getting a warning that they may have been “exposed to harmful extremist content recently.”...that “violent groups try to manipulate your anger and disappointment,”...

OMG!!! If that isn’t 1984, I don’t know what is! That is like “inform on your friends today” type of crap. GET OFF FACEBOOK NOW!!! If you go on Facebook, you know they are monitoring every thing you say and post. Why go there?

The bizarre corporate and leftwing alliance is rapidly bringing 1984 into existence.

I used to think I understood how the FBI, NSC and BATF worked. We have found out, with a vengeance, that our understanding of their real undercover actions could not have been more wrong. I’m glad you still have confidence in anything those goons say or do. I don’t.
