Fakebook Censorship now affecting liberals (LOLZ)

Mao, Stalin, Hitler, muhammad, fakebook and google all agree, censorship is good.






Facebook Is Banning Women for Calling Men ‘Scum’

Women had accounts banned from Facebook for responding to male trolls with sentences like ‘men are trash,’ in part because the company classifies white men as a protected group.

When comic Marcia Belsky sarcastically replied “men are scum” to a friend’s Facebook post back in October, she never anticipated being banned from the platform for 30 days.

That was exactly what happened.

Belsky was shocked at the severity of the punishment considering her relatively innocuous comment, and immediately spoke to her fellow female friends about the ordeal. They could relate.

In the wake of the #MeToo movement, countless women have taken to Facebook to express their frustration and disappointment with men and have been promptly shut down or silenced, banned from the platform for periods ranging from one to seven days.

Women have posted things as bland as “men ain’t shit,” “all men are ugly,” and even “all men are allegedly ugly” and had their posts removed. They’ve been locked out of their accounts for suggesting that, since “all men are ugly,” country music star Blake Shelton “winning the sexiest man isn’t a triumph.”

“I personally posted men are scum in November and I received a seven day ban. It’s still ongoing. Two days and 23 hours left,” said comedian Alison Klemp.

Remember, it's "OK" for the democratic / socialist/ communist party "leadership" to call us "deplorables"........

It's only "hate speech" or "offensive" when it's coming from the "right".

I would opine that the relatively innocuous comment, "men are scum" is no more or no less hostile or defamatory than the relatively innocuous comment, "women are stupid."

Hell, Partigen Publishing even released a book in 2013 called, "Men are Scum - Women are Stupid" so either BOTH of these statements are bad, or both of them are good...


Or maybe people - ALL people should just lighten up and stop being so easily "triggered" because all of this triggering is offensive.

Gasp, you just triggered my offensive mechanism and I must find a safe place. Since I am in an airplane to the cesspool I'll have to go to the latrine/head/bathroom/loo (I don't want to exclude anyone or thing - inclusive is the harmony of life) and since I am over NC I will drop one (just to be passive-aggressive).

Anyone have a coloring book?

Sometime I wonder why I try a link on FB and it just goes not-where??
I suspect they put the brakes on links to sites why are not fond of??

I am known to be a bit of a potty mouth and I Shirley don't support the SJW causes,,
Yet I haven't been banded??

I like to thin it's because I intentionally miss-sepll curse wodrs??

Hey, I hate to admit this but I have a Facebook page. I think just for the Hell of it I will post a comment "Men are Scum" or "Men Suck" and see if it is deleted, or see if I am banned for a period of time.....

An author I follow on Facebook has had his account frozen several times this year for speaking truth about muslim invaders.

It is amusing to see liberals start reaping the unintended consequences of their actions to control everyone else's speech.
