Were All Those Rainbow Profile Photos Another Facebook Experiment?
The Atlantic ^

Posted on 06/28/2015 6:33:00 PM PDT by Blue Turtle

By overlaying their profile photos with a rainbow filter, Facebook users began celebrating in a way we haven't seen since March 2013, when 3 million people changed their profile images to a red equals sign—the logo of the Human Rights Campaign—as a way to support marriage equality. This time, Facebook provided a simple way to turn profile photos rainbow-colored. More than one million people changed their profile in the first few hours, according to the Facebook spokesperson William Nevius, and the number continues to grow.

LOL!

I knew they’d all live to regret this rainbow crap.

*So* many options.

*Sigh* Now my brother. He has thrown in with the sodomites. I sense we’ve been drifting apart for years anyway. We would only talk about entertainment, but even then, that was value-less. It’s done. I’m tired of his Christian-bashing. This, too, Jesus predicted. I’ll remember our good days, but I’m heart-broken. I pray he turns around one day, but I doubt it.

Thanks for letting me vent.

A MASSIVE UNFRIENDING IS UNDERWAY.

All across America people who on Facebook are in an unfriending war.

My wife just unfriended a (now former) black friend who talked bad about white people. My wife wanted to cut her slack but I said “No”. I will not tolerate folks who hate me for my skin color.

And don’t even get me started on my gay brother. He is now a militant homofascist and if you do not 100% support his poo-flinging behavior you are the enemy and worthy of death. And that is not hyperbole. He supports actually killing people who oppose his agenda.

These people are dangerous, and they are homicidal.

A childhood friend posted the pic of the gay rainbow WH with a positive comment...

I posted back that it was an affront to over half of the Nation to spike the football like a petulant boy wanting to be king.

That it was America’s House, not just the gays house...that the decision was more about black robed tyrants creating law from the bench vs. interpreting law and upholding the Constitution and state’s rights.

I haven’t gone back to read any subsequent replies/posts, but I hold no illusions about the tone of any replies/posts to my comment.

That’s terrible, that is really terrible. You are thinking that your daughters are your enemies because they disagree with you?! Does this mean you don’t love them any more?


No. It means I refuse to cave. To use the old phrase, “I love them enough to let them hate me.”

Again, the verses in Matthew apply.

This is similar to what the civil war or the Russian Revolution did to families.

This is a VERY big deal. It is the end of the country.

I had a friend go so far as ask why I wouldn’t change my pic. I told the truth and she went ballistic.

With "friends" like that, who needs...

And don’t even get me started on my gay brother.

I feel for you. My homosexual brother died at 41 years of age, quite a few years ago. But I never knew he was afflicted until he was dead. His living in San Francisco should have been a clue, but I was generally clueless...
