I thought I did something wrong and tried again. Oops! It was deleted again and then my Facebook page went black for 24 hours. When it came back on, everything prior was deleted. I then posted a joke. It was deleted as well as everything prior! I'm in Facebook Jail!

When I complained to some friends they explained to me that conservatism, with facts, is not allowed on social media. We can ramble on and sound as stupid as we want (which I'm very good at) just don't give the facts! Don't be a free thinker! They'll think for you!

K'den, we might be silenced but, we are still the majority! 2020 bitches!

Facebook is...

A. Now a venue for older folks.

and 

B. A private venue, not a public soap box.

FB is not somehow obliged to carry whatever rot you post in any way shape or form. Why you think it might be is a mystery. They don't even have an obligation to give you an explanation for why they chucked your posts. It might not even have been FB at all. It could simply be the thread owner got tired of your crap.

FB is not a thing anymore. Get over it. And it is a privately owned enterprise, not a government mandated platform. It has no obligation to host your ramblings, or mine, or anyone's.  

They can retain or chuck whatever they wish.

It never ceases to amaze me that people somehow consider that FB is under some free speech obligation under the US constitution.

FB is not. Grow up and get over it.

Now I can't even post on my own FB page.
My girlfriend thinks I'm a stalker. Well...she's not my girlfriend "yet".

I discovered a new vitamin that fights cancer. I call it ...B9

I also invented a diet pill. It works great but had to quit taking it because of the side effects. Turns out my penis is larger and my hair grew back. And whoa! If you think my hair is nice!

When does size truly matter? When it's TOO big!

I'm currently working on a new pill I call "Destenze". However...now my shoes don't fit.

Bummer - just when I was going to 'friend request' you.

Theistic zealots tend to find themselves in FB jail, as well, which makes it clear the issue lies with conservative posters who have ill conceived notions of knowledge.

I find facebook bombards me with lots of right wing propaganda. you probably came across too left wing.

Your inability to operate your device of choice is somehow our problem?

I think not. Your incompetance is YOUR problem and yours alone. Ignorance can be fixed with knowledge. Stupidity cannot be fixed.
