The Narrative is all that matters.

The Left has said that they’ve chosen truth over facts. When they say “truth” they mean the ideology which cannot be rejected by anyone for any reason. Facts don’t matter.

Stossel is awesome - and like a Bulldog with a bone. Something WILL come of this.

Meanwhile, me:

Seems to me like many, many others should also have a basis for such a suit.

Facebook does not have the ‘right’ to cut you off when it’s claiming to just be a platform and not a publisher. Its section 230 protections need to evaporate. Fakebook wants its cake and to eat it too. JMHO.

Pretty sure this ends with Stossel begging for his “vaccine” and “donating” a thousand bucks to the Dem Party.

JS I’m with you one thousand percent but, OF COURSE you will receive no justice from our totally corrupt ‘justice’ system.

And in the possible event of a judgement against FecesBook, the Marxist apparatchiki there will just flip the bird because they don’t give a damn and don’t obey the law ever.
Zuckface is good with it and supports it.

Here's the problem: Facebook uses “independent fact-checkers” to try to reduce fake news on its site.
That's a noble goal.

John, you are stupid.

There is nothing noble about them or their goals.

This is what happens when you become wedded to a concept. In his case, that everything a "private" company does is perfectly fine.

It is not.

Anytime something becomes "Big" whatever it becomes a bureaucracy. When it becomes a bureaucracy it become tyrannical if it was not before.

At that point it become dangerous to your freedom.

Just read up on the International Association of the Congo if you need some history.

I always surmise openly that all we have to do is collectively dump Facebook. A friend today told me that the only way to get her town news is through Facebook which includes the municipal information,police and events. She also added that schools use Facebook as their website. America gave their lives to scumbag Zuckerberg and the other tech tyrants.

I think I heard that Stossel is from my home town, Chicago Heights, Illinois. Not absolutely sure, but I wonder if that is true, and that information brought up a whole bunch of memories and anecdotes about the “Heights”.

When I get nostalgic, I visit my old hometown... on Google Earth, and sometimes I can virtually walk the streets I knew as a kid. Almost nothing is the same, but some places are still as they were, and it is always interesting to see them again. I recommend such a virtual tour of your home town, college town, etc. if you haven’t tried it yet.

Any amount Stossel can realistically get from Facebook will be a mosquito bite to them. But at least he’s trying. Real legislation is needed to deal with the digital information monopoly established by Facebook, Google and Amazon Web Services, but with BigTech firmly on the side of the Democrats and with the Republicans mostly tech-ignorant dunces, that’s not going to happen.

California’s is 3 degrees warmer? Since when…..& there’s proof that it was caused by greenhouse gas emissions by humans & somehow that affects forest fires? Is that daytime highs or overnight lows that got warmer? Who collects the data & verifies it?

You made me sue you.
I didn’t wanna do it;
I didn’t wanna do it.

You made me sue you
And all the time you knew it;
I guess you always knew it.

You know you made me sue you...

“Facebook is a private company. It has every right to cut me off.”

Facebook went from private equity to publicly traded over ten years ago.

Shareholders own Facebook. Because it has access to the markets it is also subject to regulation.

Officers have a legal duty to protect the financial interest of the shareholders and cannot legally use the company’s assets for their own personal political agendas.

Doing so should be treated just like theft and embezzlement.
