I have already posted many of your articles to the seven political groups on MeWe of which I am a member, so I will just keep on truckin'. During 2022 I'd been posting political stuff on Fascistbook and Zuck didn't like it. My first account suspension was for one day, my second was for three days, and my third was for 29 days. It began dawning on me that even though I was an administrator of a group containing 60,000 supposedly "conservative" Minnesota members, group membership doesn't matter if Fascistbook is shadow-banning me such that it takes a week for my post to be seen by 2,500 members. It also occurred to me that my next account suspension might be my last; my next post, whatever it contained, might permanently terminate my Fascistbook account. I wanted to keep my account open because so many of my peers had ignored my admonitions to leave Fascistbook en masse and migrate to a free-speech platform (like MeWe). All I'd accomplish by continuing to post there would be to lose my ability to see what they were doing. So in October 2022 I simply stopped posting on Fascistbook. What my friends haven't figured out yet is that you can't beat your enemy on your enemy's turf playing your enemy's game by your enemy's rules. Instead, you must do the hard work of establishing a new platform that circumvents and thus abandons your enemy entirely. We will win only when we've relegated Fascistbook to the dustbin of history.

Dave, thank you for posting my articles on MeWe. I post there, too. You are correct about FB. Zuckerberg $$$ put Demented Biden in the White House. But, I can already discern that views have decreased since I was blocked. 🤬

What evidence do you have that Zuck is any less crazy than before?

None! He said a year ago that he is paying again to rig 2024 presidential election in favor of Democrat candidate. BTW, Washington State just changed rules: ANYONE can vote in Washington, regardless where they live. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!

Ah I misread your comment. I thought you'd said that Zuck's political views had become less radical. Now I see that you were saying that your "view" on his platform have decreased.

I think those of us worried about America's future have spread our concerns far and wide, and I hope people do understand the urgency of our mission. Unfortunately, we you can show people the path but whether or not they take it is another question.
