What could possibly go wrong?

I deleted my Facebook months ago. I don't regret it for a second.

Oh good lord!
So they've teamed up with Snopes and PolitiFact to determine what is "truth". That should go well.

If there was ever a single "media" outlet that could be described as "Fake News" it's Facebook.

FFB! If you are so stupid that you can't detect "Fake News" you'd better stick to nursery rhymes and "Little Golden Books". This is nothing but another batch of liberal censorship and a violation of free speech. Screw Facebook with a rusty barbed wire wrapped fence post.

There are a few friends I can only keep up with via Facebook, which is the only reason I am still using that site. However, I am finding it increasingly difficult to justify supporting such a pernicious service. I hate Facebook, I think my days there are numbered.

Someday I'm going to send a mass email to all my FB friends and give them my actual email address and phone numbers and delete my account.

Let's not forget:

Pizzagate=fake news

Pizzagate=dude with an AR15 (and an IMDB page) storming into pizza joint and popping rounds

Fake news=crazy people with guns going into family friendly restaurants

Who will think of the children?

Stay frosty.

"Fake News" - anything with a conservative or even neutral spin; see also - the truth

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Mark Zuckerberg=Gail Wynand.

The gripe isn't with social media, I have no problem with social media, I have a problem with parasites like him.

2 Face book is nothing but a .gov honeypot I firmly believe.
They need to stick to cat pics.

I keep 3 facebook accounts.
One to follow my old old friends and family. I rarely post anything.
Two is a shortened version of my real name, for old old online friends of all persuasions. (about 10-15 yr old friends) again I rarely post, besides a bit of Trump stuff, It's nice because a gal I used to raid with just came back to wow, so I was able to track her down, and my crazy conservative Aussie bud posts cool stuff
Three is a business name I'd like to build soon, so I'm keeping it public, rarely and posted to in relation to the trade.

It has it's place, but not using it for the last year (since I purged it post-Snowden revalation has been nice.

If I want to piss off Leftards I go mixed boards, usually packed with Millenials and Europeans and do it there. :)

Sounds legit. People should turn to a liberal social media source to decide what is right and wrong.

Their plan is coming together.

Yup!

Here is a lib-made list of their take on news bias.
NYT and CNN are not biased.
I guess in their mind, the only way to be "somewhat liberal" is to be on board with Bernie Sanders, the socialist.
Clinton support, supporting a dem in a general election and talking about Islamophobia and not ISIS is "middle of the road"

And yet who is caught colluding with Clinton?

Am I in before Facebook starts labeling Christian Posts for like and share as a fake sweepstakes?

Talking about Christianity at all is "hatespeech" sir, check your privilege.

But ISIS twitter accounts need to stay up.
Because check your privilege.
