Don’t Wait for Congress or Zuckerberg To Set You Free From Facebook
Canada Free Press ^ | 04/12/18 | Judi McLeod

Someday a non-political frog, one who looks like President Donald Trump and who is totally unrelated to government, will set all Facebook frogs free.

Millennial pipsqueak Mark Zuckerberg may have done us all an unintended favor at Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s Congress performance.

Anyone who watched it knows exactly where the masses stand in this perilous moment in time: millions of frogs in social media’s boiling cauldron of water getting uncomfortably hot, but not quite yet knowing it’s time to jump out.

Don’t use it or “Twitter”

I wouldn't go near FB, crafts or not. Go to a crafts forum. There are forums online for sharing everything under the sun.

But FB has ulterior motives as we see now.

It's more than is appears at first blush.

Tim Cook of Apple criticized Facebook so that was Rush’s queue it was OK to criticize him as well.

Rush may be too close to these people to properly criticize — or he knows they can hurt his business and give him a Mueller-sized headache.

Wouldn’t it be fun if Trump suddenly left Twitter and went to some other social media? He could literally change the fortunes practically overnight.

PASS THE WORD——get out of Facebook.

Been there, done that many years ago. Now I’m thinking that Twitter is a waste of time in business.

But I do enjoy reading Bill Mitchell’s comments and the JohnWicksofPolitics.

Less than Facebook.

"...more of the same?..."


Patriots who get suspended / booted from Twitter often can later be found on www.GAB.ai and happily posting there.

ROFL...wouldn’t that be hilarious! I would love to see someone start a conservative social media...that Trump could use to reach millions.

FR might be good, except Twitter is good way to help Democrats/Left get their britches in uproar in morning, before going out to work! His Tweets ruins their day, it’s awesome!

Thanks, I needed a laugh!

I agree that Facebook has ulterior motives. They are slime.

The benefit of Facebook is that it attracts buyers who **never** think of going to a crafts or art forum. It has greatly expanded the market for the arts and crafts.

And...It frees the artist and crafter of the **50%** take that galleries skim off the top. It also means that many artists and crafters do not have the expensive and **considerable** discomfort of showing their wares at craft shows.

I am hoping that a superior product run by conservatives will give Facebook a serious dose of competition.
