I just got hit with some censorship by Zuckerberg and his fascist anti free speech Nazis, over what? I have no honest idea. Seriously. I toned myself the hell down after trump won and after facing a 24hr then 48 hr ban over sharing memes mocking antifa I mellowed out.

I decided selling and buying shit in their classified section isn’t worth the hastle.

I honestly have no fucking idea why I was pusnished. I tried to find out what I did wrong.

Fuck it ar some point leftist keep pushing and it’s woryh just going nuclear and deleting yourself. They have already permanently deleted the voices and works of many people I like already. No need for me to hang around. Fuck em

THIS is fascist Naziesque bullshit. Silencing people because you don’t like their ideas. 3 day ban. Fuck that lets make it permanent.

my brother posts daily, sometimes hourly , on facebook,

he has not, as far as I know, been disciplined, which is surprising, since he posts stuff we buy from estates (FFL) and other random conservation stuff,

he has told me that several sections, even password protected areas, have been shut down for firearms content,

Never joined FB, etc. however, I did have to delete Patreon today which I contributed to for supporting other craftsmen and artists. The “hate speach” bullshit is out of hand.

Now you have credit card services like MC deciding if your are an “untouchable”/outcast per your spending habits. The tyranny is closer than you ever imagined. So much for our founding principles. Roll Eyes

Jordan Peterson recently quit Patreon. He was taking in $80k per month from Patreon subscribers to put that in perspective.

He and his sidekick are officially out as of January 15, 2019. They’re looking at alternatives including crypto, but they are quite uncertain that any private/corporate institution can supply the necessary avenues for unfettered, and non-censored payments.

OP I did the permanent deletion from facebook about three weeks ago.

Theres a two week wait for it to be permanent. You can backup your account and upload again if you decide to reignite your fb life.

Now when I try to login in it doesn't recognize me at all. I bet they still have my data and history on a server somewhere. They be good people.

Screw FuckBook! Glad I have zero history w/them, Instashit & SnapFart. I even deleted my LunkHead account a decade ago with some foresight. Quite a few companies have said to me they were surprised that they didn’t find any social media presence of me anywhere on the web... to which I replied, go me! Big Grin
Seriously, SF is my only internet hangout. A big shoutout to Para, LDD and the greater SF community as it’s the coolest and most informative place on the web!

I refuse to join any social media that mines data and keeps tabs. Never been on farcebook, twatter, instacram, or any other garbage like that. My wife does FB, and has been banned 2 of 3 times for making comments libtards find offensive. One more and she’s gone.

And haveme is spot on; it’s almost a certainty that someone in your circle of friends is the one that will burn you. And a report requires NO validity to get you banned.

Sig Forum and a couple other gun forums are the only social media I've ever used.

vthoky I honestly don’t know. There was no explanation. Just a 3 day ban. I decided to make it permanent.

I have been off of Faceplant since before the 16 election. I don’t miss it. I have been looking at WeMe but can’t confirm where it has originated from and if it will be a viable alternative to Facebook.

WeMe claims it will not sell, or share data and that we retain our pictures and information as our property.

I dumped facebook years ago. Just got tired of trying to sort thru all the BS to get to something that interested, or applied to, me.

Society set this in motion by accepting the false principle of 'hate speech'. This PC nonsense is going to get out of hand. It's going to get deadly as it runs its course. I am dismayed that a free people cannot forecast where this is going and stop it cold.
