Earlier this week in a local FB group, someone posted a pic of a snake that was in their yard and they wanted help identifying what kind it was. My answer was “black rat snake or black racer” and it was blocked by FB.

I’ve tried to tell my family. The response...
Oh all my friends are there.
I have an account there, but I hardly ever go there.

My folks were like that in their later years.

that is and exaggeration... I think.

My parents were both past presidents of the San Fernando
Valley Airstream Club.
They knew a lot of people from that and just life in general.

Facebook is a perfect example of socialism: You get it for free but the quality sucks. You have no say in how it works. The guy who runs it gets rich. There's no real competition. You have no privacy. And if you say one thing they don't like they'll shut you up. |

Many corporations go to the Facebook accounts of employees and applicants for monitoring. Lack of a Facebook account is a major red flag. Believe it or not, so is a “plain vanilla “ Facebook page. Now one must show allegiance to the CPUSA (Democrats).

It should be a red flag. Corporations want stupid obedient drones. Intelligent and independent employees might uncover corporate wrongdoing.

Until recently, most online platforms largely defined “hate speech” as speech that could lead to imminent physical harm. But Facebook now demands that its users “not post” speech critical of “concepts, institutions, ideas, practices, or beliefs associated with protected characteristics, which are likely to contribute to imminent physical harm, intimidation or discrimination against the people associated with that protected characteristic.”
“Protected characteristics,” according to Facebook, include “race, ethnicity, national origin, disability, religious or political affiliation, caste, sexual orientation, sex, gender identity and serious disease.”
One minor edit - all fixed. ;-)
