NAACP President: Meeting With Facebook Was A Waste Of Time | Morning Joe | MSNBC
I am glad my employer pulled all their ads from Facebook!

Youre here still wetting those Russian panties over it, right?
🤣🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Trump in trouble? Poll numbers have some conservatives nervous
With four and a half months to Election Day, the latest surveys indicate Democratic challenger Joe Biden leading the president in key battleground states

Thank you to your company
frictionRx9 not true at all. MSNBC is so middle of the road they constantly play devils advocate. There are maybe one or two decent journalist they don’t try so hard to make Everything equal. There is a right and wrong so let’s stop pretending there is anything good in racism and bigotry
William H as we frak’n should
I am going to run an AD on FACEBOOK about what a cheating school
WHORTON is for allowing trump to graduate?
@Aja Kim Trump calls every Jew, Joe Shapiro.
@Eli Dicken Mike says, “from RT”.
Roald Shakleton and Killroy 😉
Biden 2020
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Now that Wharton knows that Trump cheated on his SATs they should pull back his degree not that it’s really worth anything he was at the bottom of the barrel when it came to graduating but still it’s at least sticking it to him
Roald Shakleton seriously? Do you have any links?!
I deleted Facebook 3 weeks ago.
@jeff mcgowan Another illiterate sap.

Yes ever since I found out FB has jumped through tax loop holes around the world I have thought of canceling my account with them. After seeing this I believe that will now happen. So long FB.
I’d also like to see churches paying taxes on the billions they bring in.
Facebook has been on the decline for years, I never really use it for anything other than chatting with long distance relatives/friends via messenger.
Not trying to be disrespectful, but maybe use the phone.
I have never used Facebook since they sold millions of users Data to advertisers and foreign governments for profit ….. This changes nothing
Never have never will use facebook
i have NEVER been on facebook, EVER.
I was on FB but after they got hacked I got off. But, I saw The Social Network; his treatment of friends and colleagues at Harvard, stealing the idea of FB from others that he’s had to pay off, should have warned me off from making him rich. We could all boycott FB.
That is how you stop them turn your back the more people the better
Same!
It’s situations like this that separates the men from the boys. Now we know your true colors.
Facebook’s removal from existence is a net plus for humanity.
People just need to realize that if they are getting a free service on the internet then they are the commodity being sold. There really is no way to protect yourselves from cyber-surveillance these days, short of not carrying a phone and paying in all cash.
A little bit of precaution can reduce that footprint, but convenience strips away caution.
Axed???
Come on!
Why do so many people believe Facebook Twitter or any social media in this way.
Everyone should know by now most of it is DRAMA AND GOSSIP. Daytime soaps where did they go? Social media.
@Matt Thompson How are either BLM or Antifa racist? I guess Russian trolls have a different definition of the word racist than US citizens do.
I delete my Facebook
Facebook’s platform is full of hate speech and misinformation.
I deleted my Facebook account over 3 years ago. Now if I want to see lies and BS I just watch Fox News.
My thoughts exactly. I rejected this evil media platform 3 years ago also. Thanks for your post.
How did you delete, (not mute,) your account please? I want my account completely gone! 3 months without social media, it’s the best thing I ever did, do not miss it one single bit!!!!!!
The correct name of that internet waste hole is FakeBook or Wastebook.
@Sistagal Sistagal https://www.facebook.com/help/224562897555674
@Ron Winter Thanks for the link. I’m out!
Using Facebook is a waste of time…
Would it surprise ANYONE if we all find out that fb has been receiving russian laundered money?? Not at all. Delete fb!
Ellen Kelley They took rubles in 2016 for misinformation that shaped the election.
I don’t think there is a conspiracy for Zuckerberg to help Trump, not that you said that. I think it is as simple as Zuckerberg will do whatever he can to grow his business.
You got that so so right got to ring Putin to make a decision
Zucked is a very informative book about FB after reading it you will never use it again.
FB is like nuclear fallout.
Just close your Facebook account.
If they lose millions of accounts they may decide to change.
You have to hit them in their wallet.
They already have millions of abandoned accounts. They’re like a hollow, rotten log.
Facebook is spying on you, as you agreed to in their terms and conditions, your information is sold to the highest bidder. It can affect your future as a young person just by posting something left of centre as a joke when you might not have meant it. YOUNG PEOPLE KEEP AWAY FROM FACEBOOK. THEY WILL BECOME YOUR CV PRODUCER OF THE NEW CENTURY!!!! DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT NOW AS EMPLOYERS ARE NOW USING FACEBOOK TO PROFILE YOU FOR JOBS YOU APPLY FOR. NUFF SAID.
Well put Mr. Fruitjuice.. Sadly the majority of the people using it see the same threat from fb, that they see from COVID, “Won’t effect me”
I did.
I did last week
Vote on Nov 3,2020! If you want this to END Vote them Out! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊 Let’s your Vote be heard.
I deleted FB 8 years ago. No regrets.
Thanks.
Same here.
Paula Lim I did so 4 hears ago in my final year of middle school, I’m a much happier man
Facebook is unhealthy in a multitude of ways. It has ruined lives, marriages, employment, friendship… The list goes on and on.
@Ken Albertsen I appreciate your perspective. I honestly don’t disagree either. I think for me there is something really unsavory about Facebook. For me it carries the same connotations as the Reality TV shows where people are yelling and throwing tantrums
hoggie log I only know for sure, based on my direct experience, that hostile foreign powers interfered in the 2016 election using trolls and bots to infiltrate Facebook groups and spread lies and propaganda. It DEFINITELY had an effect. That alone damns FB because they are allowing it to happen again.
You are so right about that.
@Jay P I am glad that it is a useful tool for you. Sounds like you have a great family. I don’t doubt that it has some usefulness. Heck in some instances it may have literally saved lives. My contention is that it’s cumulative effect is that it is a drag on society as a whole.
hoggie log Yes, it’s a lottery. But we aware this is happening more and more and is tainting even the elections of this country that use to be the beacon of justice and decency just 4 years ago
anything involving facebook is a waste of time
Bless you Sarah.
Agreed.
Why? If you don’t agree with it censor it? No one should be censored. Its not what Americans are supposed to believe in.
As is this site, to be fair.
Cancel Facebook- there is real life without surrendering to MZ
Facebook – created by a white guy to rate college females. Just don’t forget that one fact.
Zuck is intimidated by Trump. He will allow all lying ads and Russian interference again.
