Facebook Owes You Nothing!


Why all the outrage?

You have no preponderance of privacy or right to free speech on Facebook.

Why?

Because you don't OWN it!

You are allowed onto Facebook at the behest and good graces of Facebook owner and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

And whether he invented it himself or, as some have accused, swindled some other egocentric grifters out of it, Mark Zuckerberg is the person who can say who is allowed on HIS social media giant and who is not. It's HIS site and his marketplace. He is the arbiter of who has access. He does not owe you or anyone else a forum for anything you have to say to the people who are logged into his social media world.

You don't like it?

Then by all means get your own website or better yet, start your own social media company.

Alex Jones has his own websites. He, at least, has spent some time and money developing his own outlets for his wacky bullshit. That is his right and he's taken advantage of it. Being taken off of Facebook is a hit to fan access but he's not shut off since he controls his own media sites. You want to listen to his claptrap, you know where to find him. You are free to do so at your leisure and there will be no one to stand in your way.

Never heard of Laura Loomer but she has a website too. I can't speak to whether she's whacky or not since I can't be bothered but at least you can go find out for yourself without the "help" of Facebook.

Milo Yiannopoulos and Luis Farrakhan, those cheapskates, don't have websites. They rely on free access to Facebook and that other Zuckerberg controlled social media entity, Twitter, for an audience for their frenetic rants and streams of unconsciousness.

As for the impact to the owner of Facebook, it's a given that all these self-promoting radical high-wire acts are starting to become a major liability and a world-class pain-in-the-ass. The leaders of all the major nations are on Zuckerg's case in a vociferous and litigious fashion about the media mogul's site content and he no longer seems inclined to want to put up with it.

I can't say I blame him.

If I owned Facebook, I wouldn't want to hear it either. I wouldn't have put up with that self-absorbed bluthering lunatic Jones on MY social media site either. I can think of no other person who personifies the reason we should bring back Mental Institutions in this country than Alex Jones.

The Right Wing media is using the action Facebook is taking to generate sponsor revenue and whip up angry phone callers about how anti-free speech it is in regards to banning certain people and groups from Social Media. It may certainly be but it's not unlawful. Facebook is not publicly funded and is not bound by rules of public access rights. The US taxpayer isn't paying the bills.

It may not be fair but it doesn't have to be fair either. It can, and is, totally arbitrary. The "reasons" are equally dubious. That other extremist group, Media Matters, which seems under the rules ok to stay on Facebook, is essentially accusing Jones and Yianopoulas of complicity in mass murder since this Left Wing group has taken to branding Conservative groups as White Supremacists.

I wouldn't have Media Matters on my site either. Get off you Left Wing agitators!

While I find all these people yappy and annoying, they are no more or less dangerous than those yoyos who try to get people to eat Tide Pods or do death defying daredevil stunts that have lead to their less talented imitators not managing to actually defy death at all.

But those are ok, right?

But in reality a good reason isn't needed. Facebook is only using "Hate Speech" as a show. They have to say something for public consumption and since it's the catchword of the decade, it's very convenient. We all know there is no such thing as hate speech.

But you don't have a right to free speech on Facebook and you never did. They tell you that when you sigh up but nobody ever reads the agreement. Whether you read it or not, you're still bound by it. and with mounting pressure on the boy genius, it's going to be enforced more and more and the people and groups that they pick aren't going to like it. But they didn't build Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg did.

And what he says,goes.

Muslim Invaders Tear EU to Shreds


Like my mother always told me when I got into trouble and I tried to defend myself by saying that Johnny was doing it too, she’d say, “If Johnny jumped off a cliff, would you?”

So now I’d like to alter that a bit: “If Germany jumped off a cliff, should the rest of the EU do it too?”

But now, not just merely content to point the finger at the European Union countries that do NOT want these hordes of Muslim interlopers to move into their relatively peaceful nations, the EU has now come up with a plan to MAKE them take these people.

Good thinking.

And to think, before this all started, the European Union's only concern was that it was in danger of going bankrupt. Now with that notion just a quaint side story, the EU decides that it's better to just blow it up before it can collapse financially.

It’s bad enough that Germany, the country that is running the EU anyway and THINKS it has the wealth and political capital to absorb a stunning 800,000 people in just the first year, has started this human flood by declaring they will welcome as many Syrians, Afghans, Yemenis, Lebanese etc.

And so now, since Germany has finally figured out that they actually CAN’T handle the hordes of people they so naively invited in has decided to foist these people upon the nations that had the good sense in the first place to recognize what a tremendous blunder Germany was making and wanted no part of the situation.

Brilliant!

Now according to Brussels, everyone must share the burden whether they like it or not.

Or will they?

I don’t see Hungary taking the plan to force these people they have so painstakingly worked to discourage into their country. Ditto the Czech Republic and Slovakia if these Visigoths are shoved down their throats involuntarily and if they have no voice in the decision making process they will be wondering why they are involved in the EU in the first place and exploring new alliances could be in the cards. I mean, if they are just going to be marginalized and dictated to, why put up with that?

Denmark’s go the right idea. They’ve slashed welfare benefits to immigrants and if you want to settle there, you have to,,,choke,,,learn their language. What a novel idea! I'll bet Denmark is not high on the migrant list of destinations. Beat us at the border, don't let us take the trains but NO WELFARE MONEY!? Dammit! I'm going to Germany!

Even the nations that want to take these dubious refuges blanch at the staggering number of the Muslim Baby Boomers streaming across the borders into the EU. They know the writing is on the wall and their forced welcoming smiles, also like my mother told me, now held too long will freeze upon their faces.

England and France, long known for their forced sincerity are back pedaling faster than a professional Log Roller at the Lumberjack World Championships as France's cut of the immigrant pie allotment according the the EU allocation chart is far lower than the number they vowed to take originally. They have enough cars burned every year in their segregated Muslim slums and they really shouldn’t be adding any more unhappy future arsonists if they can possibly avoid it.  It also remains to be seen how many of these illegals that the United Kingdom will actually take since every time David Cameron opens his mouth the number decreases. The reality will probably be even lower.

So now it’s a grim lottery. What we will see during the “sorting out” process, once they can get to the sorting out process, will be streams of trains running in the opposite direction taking a great many of these “masses yearning to breathe free” back to wherever the hell it is they actually came from. Or maybe just close enough to count. And that is something that seems to have been outlawed in the United States but will be Job #1 in the EU in the coming months.

But they won't go quietly and they won't go peacefully. 

And the damage done to The Union will be deep and fatal.
