Craig Crawford, YES! Sadly most ppl dont even know
@Boomtek Mamma Nice try Mr. Pence.
Zuckerberg is just plain greedy and doesn’t care and Trump gives greedy slobs like him more filthy lucre. ..
Ehm he is already very close with puttin, he loves the dictator in Philippines, so no this aint a surprise.
Just remember how Zuckerberg “got” the idea of facebook. That explains who he is and always will be.
@preachermaid typical jew.
@cmulder002 typical anti Semite.. Like Trump and his cronies..
@cmulder002 Typical Traitor Trump Troll.
Delete Facebook account.
Problem solved.
Greg M Yes l agree! A lot or most people l know have already done so!
@Eagle Eyes May it go the way of MySpace… Hopefully soon.
C H Let’s hope so!
C H sewer = drumpf
It’s starts with one person refusing to use Facebook
Two years later I think there are about 20 million Facebook nay sayers.
Let’s grow the nay sayers movement.
This is why I quit Facebook
Me too! Let’s start a “Me too” movement for deleting Fakebook accounts.
@T. Noel Trudell-Kays great idea!
ditto quit 3 years ago had enough of the propaganda fake sites promoted faux news …invasion of privacy and the owner doesn’t pay tax
Boycotting facebook is a patriots obligation at this point.
Ditto
Facebook and Google both need to be broken up into little tiny pieces.
Steve, I am a Russian vote Trump 2020! OHH no now you have too!
Steve is completely right. Something needs to be done about all the laws Republicans took down that had controlled somewhat the large corporations, especially monopolies which had not been allowed. That one was called the Combines Something Act. Somebody PLEASE correct me. What’s the 2nd word? Capitalism has gone too far when 1 person who is far richer than anyone should ever be allowed to be can buy their way through anything, including a presidential election and then behave like a huge gangster for 4 years, and just bribe everybody in sight. The corporations, Wall Street, banks and the rich all need much more oversight.
People delete your Facebook!
r dh, As of my comment you have 2 supporters facebook will be looking to settle with you soon! LOL!
Been there
Done that
Close your account and send a message to Zuckerberg.
I haven’t been on it in months, but I do share the news stories from the channels to it.
I left facebook. It has become all that is evil in the world. As usual it is an American ( thing) that is rotten to the core.
I stopped using it in 2013. Don’t miss it.
It’s not that they’re allowing it, it’s just that they feel they can’t be bothered to remove it, as you know, that’d take people, that they’d have to pay.
I just spent 30 days in Facebook jail for criticizing the Saudi government.
When lying in political ads (propaganda) becomes the norm we are coming to a very dangerous place. This is how dictatorships are born. This is exactly why Bernie Sanders must be elected. Only he will be tough on these kinds of things
Not even funny whe trump literally has this cult
Hello north korea 2.0
@Kingu Crimuson Trump has said he likes the system of north Korea. But don’t worry he won’t win.
Hitler rose tp power on it, reigned on it and loved it. We all saw where that got Germany.
Holy fook this world is just ruined. It’s like a never ending nightmare that we can allow companies to run this BS and profit from blatant lies. Fook Disgraced book.
Bud Fudlacker Go away. TY
@Bud Fudlacker It’s about knowing they are lies.
It’s every dystopian novel all rolled into one.
Zuckerberg is a moron, only money talks since Donald Trump and
Mark Zuckerberg best buddies now after meeting in the WH. 😘 🤣
IT’S ALL ABOUT THAT *ALMIGHTY DOLLAR*, PERIOD!!🆗🇺🇸✌😂😂😂
Please Chris. It’s not “falsehoods”. THEY ARE LIES! LIES! LIES! LIES!
Ever heard of synonyms? Falsehood and lie are the same thing. Geez…
Facebook should be ashamed of its self
Quit calling them “falsehoods!” They’re lies. Just call them what they are.
Ever heard of synonyms? Falsehood and lie are the same thing. Geez…
@Shin Do you really think most of Trump’s base know what synonyms are? Some words are just clearer and, let’s face it, clarity is required.
@Shin Trump is not a falsehooder. Nor does Trump falsehood to the American people on a daily basis. The two words may be similar in meaning when used as a noun, but they are not interchangeable. “Lie” is clearly more appropriate than “falsehood.”
@Snaggletoof Google the meaning of “Synonym”
I voted w my feet and shut down my decade old FB acct. Didnt do a thing for my businesses. Didnt do my headspace any good. Constant bombardment of disturbing content of every kind. Screw em. Vote Blue.
Same here
@Tess Downey
Ditto
And the message is… “Get off Fakebook, people!”
Yes, I don’t miss it one bit
Got rid of fb, and life is so much better now!!
@Tess Downey Friends and relatives used to badger me about not having a Facebook account – “YOU’RE NOT ON FACEBOOK!!! WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU!!! EVERYONE HAS A FACEBOOK PAGE!!!”
I decided to go ahead and get a Facebook account. I think the last time I visited my Facebook page was 2017.
I don’t miss fuckbook with all their allowances of Russian bots Scammers Catfish and just plain disgusting people Perverts. I don’t miss it..
The argument is: “Liars are people too.” Right, but do they really need their right to lie and deceive others to be defended?
It’s called propaganda and stupid people believe it.
Well, I’d like to think that’s the end of Facebook.
Why isn’t more attention be paid to the meetings between Zuckerberg and Trump?
darlings.. the GOP.. is “DEAD”.. behold the “NEW FASCIST’S”..
