Delete Your Facebook: Final Warning

This morning brings us news of Facebook doing the following:

Facebook pushing users to turn in their friends/family for "extremism"

If you're still on Facebook after they snooped your private messages, stole your data, manipulated your elections, censored you, and gaslit you, then you're an idiot.

Stop being an idiot. Delete your Facebook account. Stay off their platform. You do not have to use it. I deleted mine years ago and every day I see Facebook on the news I realize what a good decision that was.

If you want to keep hating your neighbors, keep being fed lies, keep being manipulated, gaslit, and potentially turned into law enforcement for your opinions, then please stay on.

But you won't convince me you're not stupid if you do.


This is a "final warning" because this is the last step before you start going to jail for what you post.

Done a while back when I learned they were in league with the 3-letter agencies (abt 10 years ago-ish)

I live in the free state of Tennessee, we run our own government, Facebook can go and do something with its self.

Facebook is a great way to stay in touch. It also is a great place to catch a laugh or two.

Stay AWAY from the politics and BS, and it's great.

Block anything that makes you angry including friends.

I won't be deleting my Facebook account. I'm not worried about it. I have nothing to hide and don't care who knows what about me.

Now, I think I'll go and check Facebook and see what my friends are up to.

LOL. What would I be going to jail for? I post pictures of BBQ, and promote my bands on there.

If you're posting things that could land you in jail, perhaps you are an extremist.

But what is to become of all the people suffering borderline narcissistic personality disorders, that need the constant attention and abiding love, the likes, of, otherwise, total strangers? Where else are people going to announce they got up in the morning, peed, and are about to have breakfast, despite Trump trying to snatch them bald, again? Where are snowflakes going to bare the tribulations of their crippling TDS, those nagging fears, find a safe haven to unload all their symptoms, or talk anomalous crotch issues, and actually be treated as sane and a meaningful adult member of the comforting herd? For some, you are advocating an apocalypse that only Fakebook and Twittle stand in the gap to avert!

I'm right there with you, projectvxn.

People should have deleted their fakebook, instagram, toktik, snap, whatever...years ago. Seems that now they are conditioned to believe they "need" it to survive or communicate with family, long lost friends and the such. I think all these social media outlets did a fantastic job at brainwashing people into thinking they need their services. To this day, I hear people saying they don't know what they would do without any of the social sites.

I just shake my head. It's of no use talking sense into masses of people who believe they are better off with these social sites controlling their narrative. I may not have much to say about the anonymous sites (ATS, or reddit) because they can be even worse.

Now, I see the use of fakebook for people to silently monitor social credit systems. So that's a thing. People think they need a social credit score for their security but...let's not ever learn how be self-sufficient.

We need social media sites to tell us about bad people.

FB does not delete your account when you "delete" it. It just goes dormant.

Thank for being a good example of the types I'm addressing in the OP.

a reply to: LordAhriman

These days that is increasingly arbitrary.

a reply to: Creep Thumper

Regardless, stop using it.

It is detrimental to social cohesion, personal liberty, and civilization in general.

There is only 1 thing I use facebook for : to see pics of my grandchildren

My daughter posts all her family pics on facebook

fortunately she is super apolitical but she is a strong Christian and that may end up getting her in trouble with alphabet soup agencies

I have blocked even my sis who is a rabid leftist and can be quite mean toward conservatives. Maybe I should turn her in for extremism?

Anyway once a "friend" or family member posts anything "extreme left" political (all my "friends" who had TDS) I block them or if they post a bunch of crap (like kitty pics) over and over I block them.

I never look at facebook for trash news, because the news on facebook is always trash oriented, oops left, no extreme left oriented.

Wish I didn't have to go there even once or twice a month to download the pics I want.

a reply to: projectvxn

Yeah I have no need to delete mine.

I don't believe in or say anything racist, homo/trans-phobic. I'm not a Nationalist, I'm a Xenophile and not a Xenophobe. I don't push faith on others, I don't post right wing propaganda.

Facebook has never given me any issues outside of 1 time.. where I posted the video of a BLM protestor sitting in a field peacefully in the capitol with a line of other people, doing a sit in... then the police , for no reason went up and assaulted and cuffed him,.dragging him off t jail for just sitting there...

I appealed their decision..

And I won and it was reposted.

No harm no foul

Agreed. I've always used FB to stay in touch with out of state family and friends I rarely have a chance to see in person. Mostly sharing family photos, my kids life events, etc. I block all the other political BS.

a reply to: jtrenthacker

If you think this is about "political BS" and you think that blocking certain content is where this ends...well.. Here's your sign.

a reply to: Lucidparadox

You seem to believe it is ok to be the thought police and that people should be turned in.

Must be really easy to only post pre-approved opinions that you're allowed to have.

I did Nazi that coming.

LOL haven't been on in about 3 years, but the occasional email I get, looks like my account was highjacked. The writing all looks Arabic.

Should I care?

a reply to: projectvxn

I don't use it but I unfortunately have a fb login.
The made it freaking MANDATORY to have a FB in order to use the Oculus Quest 2, VR.
It wont let you use it until you create an account.

Thankfully, you don't need to use FB itself, its just the login method.

Wait till they go after the shameful climate destroying meat eaters.

I proudly say I never had that $h!t.

Like I always say, not all the people in Facebook is stupid but all the stupid people has Facebook.
