Happy 9/11 Day!
I'll never forget where I was when Saudi Arabia attacked the United States on 9/11 and the Bush crime family conspired with the federal government to convince you dummies that it was the goat fucking Taliban and Iraq that somehow attacked us.

Someone I was friended with via having met them through when Quinn played club soccer just did the "both sides need to stop" type post. I broke my rule and responded. I guess I should go ahead and pre-emptively unfriend.

I've posted exactly one time since the election. It's freeing. And there's no Facebook messenger on my phone either. That shit is a battery killer.
(But yet I still have Instagram and What's App, so I'm not completely disconnected from Facebook though. I wish I could be.)

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
Yep. Liberals are sowing violence by asking Sarah Sanders to leave a restaurant after refusing her offer to pay for the cheese plate she ate, while the mother fucking President constantly calling for and praising violence is fine, even in light of his friends killing journalists while he covers for them, and someone sending active fucking pipe bombs in the mail to two former Presidents and all the others. Both sides my ass. And when have we held the fucking President to a lower standard of discourse than a crackpot peacefully protesting with a sign?tennbengal wrote: ↑Thu Oct 25, 2018 5:29 pm The “both sides need to chill out” sentiment has me pure angry.

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
Any non right-winger who uses the “both sides” framing is either a politically incompetent Democrat like Chuck Schumer, or is intentionally being dishonest in order to position themselves as a “centrist” after the inevitable post-Trump whitewashing of the GOP.

Or, they are fearful of what will happen to this country if even more people stop exercising restraint.
And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.
Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
If the thought of the other side starting to fight back increases someone's fear, its probably tells a lot about both their current safety and their concerns (or lack thereof).

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
I think it depends on what you mean by "fight back".
If I ran into Orrin Hatch in a restaurant around here, I would love to yell at him. Is that fighting back? What does that achieve?

Assuming he’s not a masochist you make his night a little worse and maybe it’s cathartic for you. These people care about their money, their power and their comfort and we can only fuck with one of those. It’s not earning a seat on the SCOTUS but it’s slightly better than zero.

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
And here's the other thing about these type of people, they quite often float in a bubble with a staff, contributors, colleagues, etc. that are deferential and overly polite and ego-boosting. Like, 99 percent of the time, they are treated very close to royalty.
So, you know, fuck them for being shown the reality that an overwhelming majority of people think they are fucking assholes, helping to ruin the country.
Fuck their comfort.

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
I'm taking a Facebook break.
Found myself getting too worked up by comments on the weekend. There is nothing to be gained by either engaging angrily with "friends" of "friends" or getting pissed off at real friends and acquaintances over comments they make to "friends" of "friends."

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
I get it. When you return, change your settings so only friends can see or post on your posts, not friends of friends. Also, if you don't want to unfriend them, at least quit following people who piss you off, so you don't see their posts. I've done that several times.Pruitt wrote: ↑Mon Oct 29, 2018 6:28 am I'm taking a Facebook break.

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
and then people are complaining they can't share it because of Facebook's "libtard policies."HOW I FEEL ABOUT TRUMP You've been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with snakes. Hundreds of slithery, venomous snakes🐍 have overtaken your basement. You want them gone immediately. You call the city and 4 different exterminators, but nobody can handle the job. But there is this one guy and he guarantees to get rid of them, so you hire him. You don't care if the guy smells, you don't care if the guy swears, you don't care if he's an alcoholic, you don't care how many times he's been married, you don't care if he has a plumber's crack, you simply want those snakes🐍 gone! You want your problem fixed! He's the guy. He's the best!
Here's why we want Trump. Yes, he's a bit of a jerk; yes he's an egomaniac, but we don't care. The country is a mess because politicians suck, the Republicans and Democrats can be two-faced and gutless, and illegals are everywhere. We want it all fixed! We don't care that Trump is crude, we don't care that he insults people, we don't care that he has changed positions, we don't care that he's been married 3 times, we don't care that he fights with Megyn Kelly and Rosie O'Donnell, we don't care that he doesn't know the name of some Muslim terrorist.
This country became weak and bankrupt, our enemies were making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegals, we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo, and Hasid is a special group with special rights to a point where we don't even recognize the country we were born and raised in; " AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED ". And Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want.
We're sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, and sick of illegals. We just want this thing fixed. Trump may not be a saint, but we didn’t vote for a Pope. We voted for a man who doesn't have lobbyist money holding him back, a man who doesn't have political correctness restraining him. We all know that he has been very successful, he’s a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he's also not a politician, not a cowardly politician. And he says he'll fix it. And we believe him because he is too much of an egotist to be proven wrong or looked at and called a liar. Also, we don't care if the guy has bad hair. We just want those snakes🐍 gone, out of our house, NOW.
You are welcome to pass this on. Thousands of people who haven't voted in 25 years seem to be getting involved. And the more people get this message the more that will understand why Trump was elected. The snakes🐍 have got to go!
Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

blatant racism aside, saying we voted for trump so he could fix it and we want him to fix it over 2 years into his presidency is hilarious

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
Not to mention that he is the worst snake of all and brings with him a bunch of snakes way worse than the original "snakes" they were supposedly going to eliminate.Brontoburglar wrote: ↑Thu Jan 24, 2019 7:03 pm blatant racism aside, saying we voted for trump so he could fix it and we want him to fix it over 2 years into his presidency is hilarious

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
That's the perfect response. "When the exterminator shows up saying 'I am the only one who can fix this', and he brings in bag loads of more snakes that he dumps in your basement along with a bunch of snake food, then takes your money and leaves, are you going to believe he got rid of your snake problem just because he continues to say he got rid of all the snakes?"sancarlos wrote: ↑Thu Jan 24, 2019 7:37 pmNot to mention that he is the worst snake of all and brings with him a bunch of snakes way worse than the original "snakes" they were supposedly going to eliminate.Brontoburglar wrote: ↑Thu Jan 24, 2019 7:03 pm blatant racism aside, saying we voted for trump so he could fix it and we want him to fix it over 2 years into his presidency is hilarious
It's amazing how easily people are duped by scam artists. If you ever wonder why Nigerian scam emails still appear in your junk mail, just remember 63 million people voted for Trump.

Re: Ridiculous Things You Read On Facebook
A woman I went to high school with posted these two memes:
"I'm a proud Pro-Life, Bible Owning, gun wielding, Trump voting, Conservative Republican Christian. Anyone else with me?"
Followed by a picture of Trump that says:
"Trump: The man who gave up a billionaire lifestyle to be humiliated and ridiculed and slandered in order to save the American people".
Jesus....

Anybody else notice an uptick in these types of "outrageous" stories on Fb lately. A few months back, there was the one about the woman all pissed off at people that didn't want to follow her ridiculous wedding attire rules.
Pretty obviously fake/satire, but it gets pushed out as real and people freak out about it.
