Who is ready to DELETE Facebook?

[JGross1]

Been off FB for awhile. It became (always has been) a waste of time. And now all its become is a political platform for people to jam their opinions down your throat. Even my states hunting forum pages have turned into nothing but giant drama filled arguments.

Then why did ar15.com get dropped from godaddy yesterday?

You would have to look at the content that caused them to be dropped. Parler was provided a detailed list of posts that violated the rules after previous warnings.

Just got rid of it and Instagram off of my phone 3 days ago. I’m hopeful I can keep up with it. I’m not ashamed to admit it was a crutch for me and I spent entirely too many hours on it. It hit me like a brick when I was in a blind hunting the other night scrolling to kill time. I got into a bit of a transe and looked up and deer were feeding into the field.

I realized I was not paying attention to the thing and time I love most and wasting it mindlessly scrolling. It had to go.

Also - with all the political tension it was making me think less of all the folks who were posting things that don’t align with my opinion. I would get mad about it and realize you know what - without social media, we’d just be friends and this would probably never come up in conversation and I wouldn’t judge someone on political lines but rather the quality of human they are.

Love the hypocrisy here. While big tech enjoys 230 status and is not liable for content posted on their platforms they are holding lesser tech co. responsible for content on their platforms based on politics. If they were serious about violence, Antifa and dictators who threaten America and Jews with terrorism would not get a pass.

on the doorstep of "a totalitarian regime".

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

The connection is fear of ANY opposition to the "Agenda" by "We the People"

I don’t see a connection between what caused trump to be banned and Parler, it had nothing to do with guns.

I took a month long hiatus from FB and returned this week, and was astounded at how I viewed it after being gone versus how I viewed it while using it every day. It is truly a bane on society and how we interact with another.

 

[Kountry Biscuit]

I only go there for a few groups im in. Ive moved the app on my phone so I have to scroll to find it.

Big tech controls everything as of right now. I do not know if there is any alternative right now to the control they have...

That's pretty funny in a sad way...

 

[Rifleman86]

Deleted as of today. Felt so good. Also downloaded all my data, scary how much information they have.

Sticking to this and ar15.com, if AWS doesn't kill it first.

The Looney Lefty's are skipping Socialism and Diving right in to Full Blown Communism.
What we're seeing is straight up Evil.

im right there with you, zap. Many people seem to not see how seemingly everyone, or close, in DC have been compromised by china and/or other actors over the past several decades. That is the real coup, in my opinion.

In a related way, I try to imagine myself as a historian 50 years in the future looking at this event. I keep thinking "a bunch of random people overthrew the capitol building with seemingly little to no planning and no serious weaponry??!!" and there were still so many people on the street who never even got close to the building.

They sure do seem to behave very similar to the maoists. not good.

 

[Maki35]

Never used it. My wife and I refuse to use those sites.

Don't you guys have a Qanon forum that would entertain you?

 

[Kenai_dtracker]

If this guy jumps into the game things may change.

Elon should start his own social media site. I've been warming up to this guy for a while now.

No, unfortunately i don't have time for that. I read history and hunting books in my free time. Perhaps, I'm prone to "conspiracy theories" that these "qanon" people are on about.

What is a specific example of a "qanon" "conspiracy theory" that I should be aware of to avoid?

**edit** I just searched and looked at wikipedia for "qanon." didnt read the whole thing, but scanned and searched for "china" and "chinese" and nothing came up in the wiki.

it is all about eliminating the opposition and any support they have while scaring 'moderates' to join them.

Man for 65 bucks a month, I’ll just listen to his podcasts lol

Never had it.
