  • Facebook ‘Fact-Checker’ Suggests Israelis Were Unharmed during Hamas Terror Attack at Music Festival

    SLAY News ^ | October 16, 2023 - 4:48 pm | Frank Bergman
    One of Facebook’s corporate media “fact checkers” has falsely suggested that no Israeli civilians were harmed when Hamas launched a terror attack at a music festival earlier this month. On October 7, Hamas terrorists used paragliders to fly into a music festival in Israel, slaughtering hundreds of innocent concertgoers, mostly young people and families. The terrorists also raped, injured, and kidnapped many more, as Slay News reported. Eyewitnesses recalled horrific scenes of terrorists murdering innocent people as they ran for their lives, in some cases, pulling them from their vehicles as they fled and shooting them at point-blank range. The...

    For those of you who care, as one of JimRob's FR FB Admins I appealed our Sept. 2022 ban this AM and we are reinstated. Please keep in mind that JimRob established the FB page so we could keep in contact if/when the motherboard went down. Now you all can unload on me that you've never used FB and will NEVER use FB and all who do are Zuckbots. 😂😎 OK, go ahead and flame me, I'm wearing double-secret fireproof underwear. 😉

    NY Post ^ | October 26,
    Facebook parent Meta on Wednesday reported that its revenue declined for a second consecutive quarter, hurt by falling advertising revenue amid competition from the wildly popular video app TikTok. Meta’s disappointing results followed weak earnings reports from Google parent Alphabet and Microsoft this week. Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta earned $4.4 billion, or $1.64 per share, in the three month period that ended Sept. 30. That’s down 52% from, $9.19 billion, or $3.22 per share, in the same period a year earlier. Revenue fell 4% to $27.71 billion from $29.01 billion. Analysts were expecting earnings of $1.90 per share on revenue of...

    OK, so my fake identity on FascistBook has become suspect after posting to some forums with some conservative ideas. Someone reported me, obviously, because I “identify” as the name of a famous conservative activist. FB is trying to confirm my identity by asking me to upload an official picture I.D. It’s a throwaway account, so no skin off my nose. I use it for guerrilla warfare of ideas at various leftist websites. A new one is easily created. But I still want to make waves as long as it’s possible. Any ideas? My first response idea is to upload a...

    A group of current and former teachers and others in Loudoun County, Virginia, compiled a lengthy list of parents suspected of disagreeing with school system actions, including its teaching of controversial racial concepts — with a stated purpose in part to “infiltrate,” use “hackers” to silence parents’ communications, and “expose these people publicly.” Members of a 624-member private Facebook group called “Anti-Racist Parents of Loudoun County” named parents and plotted fundraising and other offline work. Some used pseudonyms, but The Daily Wire has identified them as a who’s who of the affluent jurisdiction outside D.C., including school staff and elected...

    "Facebook didn’t respond to a request for comment. The social media giant took many punitive actions against Trump in the lead-up to the November 2020 election and eventually banned him from its website, insisting he was encouraging rather than condemning the actions of his followers. Facebook appeared to take no action against Biden, notwithstanding the Democrat issuing a number of misleading posts before and after the election."

    This is not news to anyone especially here in FR. But I think they've reached a new low. I posted a clip of Biden saying "I can beat Biden". And FB just tagged that clip as false via their Politifact checkers saying that Biden actually said "I can BE Biden". Really?! What FB just did is to say, "So who you gonna believe, ME or your lyin eyes!" This is a huge stretch and I think its so bold and brazen a lie that this shows how desperate they are.

    Former federal prosecutor Joe diGenova, a longtime critic of President Obama’s operation to dislodge and depose POTUS Donald Trump, said in an explosive Memorial Day interview that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court is aware of FBI malfeasance and fraud dating back well before “Spygate.” Noting that FBI Director Christopher Wray and CIA Director Gina Haspel have pushed back against Attorney General William Barr’s efforts to get answers into the origins of the Spygate operation — pushback that led POTUS Trump to grant Barr full authority to declassify all documents related to the attempted coup he saw fit to...

    Could it be that Facebook is turning into social media's retirement home? Although that question might seem a little bit far-fetched, young people are leaving the social network in droves while increasing numbers of over-55s are signing up. In general, Facebook is struggling to retain its user base and today the social network has an estimated 15 million fewer users in the U.S. than it did in 2017. That's according to data released on Wednesday by Edison Research which shows that 67% of the population aged over 12 used Facebook in 2017, a figure that stands at 61% today. Young...
