    Welp, based on the phrases used in this thread, I just wanted to take a second to say "HI!" to the FBI person now reading this.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        FBI, I am very disappointed in you for your obvious TDS. You need to take a good long look in the mirror and realize you lack the integrity and strength of character that is such a necessary ingredient in American justice.

        Education is extremely important.

              If you have to go back to 2017 and 2018 to find two examples by biased applications of “community standards” you disagree with, how big of a problem is it, really?

              As usual, you missed the point and don't have a clue.

              So Ax.... if in 2016, someone said on Facebook that Obama should be killed, you'd be OK with that?

              I certainly would not. Threatening to kill a President is NOT cool. My guess is Facebook would have long ago removed a post like that. And that person would have probably been visited by the FBI.

              The fact that you don't see a problem with it says much about you.

                  And as you can see, Facebook's response to the second one was yesterday. 6/24/2020.

                  So much for their new standards.

                    Ok, @Improviso, I agree that the Joan.kellyquinn post is bad. And I disagree with Facebook’s handling of it. To that end, I will further reduce the already very limited interaction I have with Facebook.

                    The Joey.spriggs.7 post is an opinion that makes no violent threat. I have no problem with Facebook leaving it on.

                          Facebook is a dumb-ass place to discuss anything serious at the best of times.

                          Don't be a dumb-ass, come to TNCR! Not that we object to dumb-asses. All are welcome.

                            The level of discourse here is generally far above the normal 'Is too! Is not!' on FB. Ugly.

                            What disappoints me the most is I see people I grew up with posting obviously fake crap. They just believe anything that reinforces what they already believe. There is plenty to legitimately disagree with or dislike about most any topic you can name. You don't need to perpetuate bullshit.

                              Let’s be honest...they use “to” instead of “too” there.

                                The great thing about TNCR is nobody reads anything we say, so we can be really obnoxious about everybody, secure in the knowledge that nobody cares.

                                  Of course I have several Facebook "friends" who have serious cases of TDS.

                                  I also have family and friends, so I stay away from politics.

                                  But if one of the TDS guys really bug me I just post this link

                                  https://shop.donaldjtrump.com/

                                  That's it, just the link, no insanity

                                    That's a beautiful thing. I try to stay away from that sort of discussion there, unless my relative posts something unbelievably stupid.
