    About a year ago after self-service pumping my gas, I was cleaning my windshield at what's now called a convenient food store when a man younger than me came over and said, "I bet you remember a time when someone would come out and do that for you."
    I nodded and said, "Yep."
    The man said, "My dad told me about that," and then he walked off.

    Google Circle tried, but failed to be a FB competitor.
    FB is a mess. Amazing how much market inertia it has.

    Thems were the days my friend. Pumping gas was my second job at 14...prior to that, on weekends, I swepted up bingo beans and cleaned them for the next night of bingo.

    Me old dino is suddenly remembering a bygone age when you could get air for free. Heck, a service station attendant would even come out, fill your gas tank, check your oil, wipe your windshield and not even ask for a tip.

    Ah, but have you tried to view it in the public news feeds?
    I bet it will only show on your page.

    I had a thought about how to combat their shadow banding...why not create an algorithm that shadow bands them from seeing your post in the first place but allowing it to be viewed in the public news feeds.

    Wish I had the knowledge to do it myself.

    This is what happens when the young are inundated with compartmentalized antilectual bull crap of the post modernist kind; born with hubris and adorned with medallions for just showing up.

    I published the following on Facebook and, so far, nothing has happened to me.
    Trump is a shock to the system and he is as unpleasant as a large dose of castor oil and an herbal enema combined but enough people thought he was what the country needed that, in accordance with the Constitution, he was elected POTUS. Some people say he is a dictator but as dictators go he doesn’t follow the pattern

    He thinks everyone should have a gun and know how to use it. If Hitler had taken that position six million Jews would not have died.

    He wants the secretive Justice department to release huge amounts of information , also pretty untypical for a dictator.

    He thinks the government should not stand in the way of economic progress.

    He thinks that personal liberty should be decided by the individual and not the state.

    He knows the difference between a journalist and a propagandist.

    He believes that when other countries are “ripping us off” with their trade policies we should take action.

    He thinks deadbeat countries should pay their own bills and not rely on “Uncle Sugar” to underwrite their socialism.

    He knows who our real friends are, Netanyahu is and much of Europe is not.

    He is willing to talk to real dictators in an effort to bring peace but is smart enough to know when to walk away from the table.

    He wants to strip power from the political elite and replace them with his own cadre. (unpopular but understandable)

    All in all he’s doing pretty well especially considering the alternative; HRC!!! Brrr, what a horrible thought.

    He is about as subtle as a bull in a china shop or a fart in a crowded elevator but he seems to be getting things done that have been needed for a long time.

    What are the odds that this "Who" is an indoctrinated libtard pinhead if not a gooney bird gaggle of them all in PC lockstep? 9-to10?

    Truth because "my truth" and "your truth" a long time ago. Facebook's "truth" is their algorithm, and of course the truth it tells is a moving target so they can hide behind the "objectivity" of their "truth."

    This is how deadly cronyism is born...don't screw your customers and Don't get in bed with government.

    [P]oliticians are more interested in using than [in] curtailing the power of these companies. The platforms, for their part, will cave rather than be regulated. The endgame here couldn’t be clearer. This is how authoritarian marriages begin, and people should be very worried.
