They did WHAT? This should be breaking (braking) news or something. Hey, their platform, their rules. I don't partake but feel bad for those that kinda sorta like their presence out there. LOOK AT ME! :-)

I am forced to be on facebook, because my mom will literally not communicate using any other means

Not news if you love our president and what he has done and will do with MAGA and KAG! (decode these weapons by looking at my tagline).

Who in their “right” mind needs Facebook?

I quit FB cold turkey about 6 years ago. I’m am not happier than ever that I did. As far as I am concerned, they are a criminal enterprise.

This should not be news to any alert conservative who can use a computer. If we know any who are not alert, we need to educate him/her.

No worries, I’m pretty sure that self absorbed low self esteem people that post what they eat are probably voting Democrat anyway.

I completely stopped using Facebook about a year ago, and was barely using it before that. It used to be a neat way to catch back up with old friends I hadn’t seen in years/decades. Now, Facebook is a sociological force. Its reach and power are like nothing else since the mass usage of the television. “Woke” capital is not going to go broke. Big Business was supposed to be conservative. It isn’t anymore, if it ever was. The conservatism of the past 50 years has no answer for this.

These media platforms are positioned to make it impossible for alternatives to the Official Narrative to see the light of day. They started out embracing diversity of opinion. This allowed them to establish dominance. Now, with pretty much nothing in the way of alternatives, they will squeeze everyone engaging in Wrongthink off of YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc ... Eventually, they will start going after domain registrations. They’ve already done it, but only to Notsees (which they define to include this site). Opposition will be driven to the Dark Web, assuming they don’t just establish actual gulags first.

I am not sure that their place their rules is practicable in this situation.

At the outset they were fairly free of censorship. However as they saw what they viewed as their opponents using their platform to out-manuver them in the political sphere, the brakes needed to be applied to limit the damage. Which puts us where we are now.

I think in the instance of all of them, and Google in particular should not be eligible for any sort of government contracting as long as they actively suppress any voices including the most abhorrent. As far as Fecebook, either open the doors or lose your software copyrights (the task of creating something similar without infringing is mega-$$$)

Those are the only tools available to us, as I see it.

I’m on the precipice of being disallowed from any posting of FB. I posted a picture of Goerring and used the caption “if you tell a lie enough” in a discussion on the lies of the left. I did this several months ago. Today I received a thirty day suspension with no review. I’m looking for another social media source as FB is reviewing everything I post under a microscope. Other FB infractions were posting a picture of a “wookie” with reference to Michelle, pictures of Nazis that were homosexuals, and a picture of Obama’s mother in a compromising position on a chair after a liberal called Melania a whore.

Facebook isn’t good for politics butt...

It’s great for keeping groups informed. My 50th HS reunion is this summer. Without Facebook, we wouldn’t be able to do it nearly as well. I’m also part of an old Usenet group and three or four subgroups of motorcycle enthusiasts that meet and travel together. I taught at a college for 35 years and it keeps me in touch with my graduates and colleagues. Finally, my family posts all sorts of stuff for the rest of the family. We are way better able to keep up with each other than we would be without Facebook.

As long as you avoid politics, Facebook is quite useful.
