Who is ready to DELETE Facebook?

Another gem of a twisted logic identity politics sewer fog thread.

I disabled it about 8 years ago, I have not missed it one bit!! I thought about getting back on just so I could delete it!!!

Sucks. Have lots of good stuff on there. I am of the opinion that it does no good to "delete" them yet. They could lose every single one of us who care and not really even feel it. What we need to do is de-monetize them. We should actively consume the content on there. Step two is to notify the advertisers that you will not do business with them until they stop doing business with YT/Google/FB. Step 3 is to refuse to use anyone advertising that you see on the sites. The only hope is that this produces enough economic pressure to cost them significant revenue. THEN delete. Has to be a phased/multipronged attack. In my opinion, this is a war. Fought with money, not with bullets. We need to be active, organized, and engaged. Running from it does no good, IMHO.

Beware those that will try to incite. They will goad you into rage to get you to say something that will hurt you and the Rokslide site.

That is why Rokslide discourages politics.

For the most impartial news reporting, believe it or not, Al Jazeera. They tell you what's happening, globally. What they don't tell you is their opinion about it. I like that. It reminds me if the Good Old Days of the BBC.

Years ago, my daughter said the same thing when she was in grad school. I was like "never heard of them..."

We definitely came close with the coup attempt on the 6th. Luckily it failed.

Not sure if you are serious or just being facetious...

I will say Jan 6th was nothing close to an insurrection or coup.

It wasn't too much different than all these liberal politicians have been calling for over the last couple of years...namely, "get in their face wherever you find them".

They don't like it because it was directed at them...and they are masters of propaganda and have turned it into a political weapon.

If it was an insurrection/coup, you would have seen a lot more violence besides the few oddballs (including Antifa participants).

You had Capitol police opening barricades, opening doors and escorting some of the "rioters" (aka peaceful protestors). There is video of this. As I said, Antifa was there also. I rather suspect they were at the forefront of stupid acts and some Trump supporters got caught up in the emotion and followed them. Time will tell (unless, of course, actual facts get silenced by SM and LSM).

When the idiots on the right do idiotic things, they point their idiotic fingers at the idiots on the left.

 

[Calcoyote]

I have FB and need it for some things that are not within my control totally. In reality, I have grown to HATE Facebook.

As the previous post alluded to: I guess that makes me one of the idiots on the right.

Not the first time the House Floor has been overrun.
Have we forgot about the Kavanaugh hearings???
The hyposcrisy of the left is nauseating.

FB- gone many years ago. I've missed all the stuff my kids/grandkids have posted there (that other people tell me they saw)

Firefox- deleted a couple of days ago, went to Brave

Amazon- spend a lot of time finding other places to get stuff I need

Google- have eliminated almost all

Youtube- still use a little but spending more and more time on Rumble

Twitter- never signed up, using Parler (was) and Gab

The censorship and targeting of anyone that might not comply with the (il)liberal/progressive mind set is the most frightening thing I've seen in this country in my 70 years. If people advocating censoring, doxxing, blacklisting, de-platforming don't see what path they are heading down they obviously have never studied any history. Antifa is the most ironic name ever. People can only be pushed so far.

We are being censored by big private industry such as facebook and it's becoming undeniable. Ron paul has limited control of his facebook page now, ar15.com is being blacklisted by many dns servers, there's a war on us and our knowledge and interests. It's time to find alternative means of communication and dissemination of information for people like us.

Never had it
Never will

Except it was found illegal to deny service to any group due to personal or religious views. Businesses were sued... and they lost. Of course... THAT issue fit the agenda, freedom and Trump did not.

 

[willtim]

Never had it to delete.

I just sold a spotting scope and tripod off Facebook Marketplace last week

Dont use the word “scope”. Just label it spotter or looking glass

Thanks - I was able to list it as a spotter and sold it the same day.

 

[Midwest Firecraft]

Only thing I will miss is Marketplace.

Please.

But...if all the cult members want to leave with their messiah and take over Cuba, I'd be fine with that.

When the idiots on the right do idiotic things, they point their idiotic fingers at the idiots on the left.

I still can't fathom why they always classify the white supremacy groups as "far right". They're so far left of me that I can't even see them. I'd put them in the same left/right location as antifa. Just because they support Trump doesn't make them a group on the "right".

It's already been taken over by the Commy Cult that has now showed up here.
My Cuban wife says she doesnt care to ever see the place again.
So that aint happening.
I aint going nowhere, and I wont be drug down.
Want your Socialism? fine, just leave me be.
