So many folks pissed about META today. I'm leaving a link to this forum on my health page.

What did they do now? I am on FB but only for my family overseas.

The pendulum is swinging back...

Hmmm🤔 freedom of speech, what a novel concept. Sounds good to me. 
The only reason this spineless little weasel is doing this though is because he’s afraid of the new administration. I it’s not a hill he’s willing to die on but it’s still a good thing. We’ll see how it works out.

I think Zuckerberg sees the way the wind blows and chooses to bend along with it. No more, no less. I do not believe he has seen the light so sudden. If anything, he has shown anything, he is willing to bend with the wind, no principles, just doing business with whomever is in charge. While the shift in gear can me admired, it does not outweigh the willingness to suppress opinions that went against the grain, the grain being, the current political beast at the time. 

It's almost like he is claiming to be a victim  too, of the very circumstances he helped to create. Ultimately, he is without integrity, and utterly focused on his bottom line. No more, no less.

He reminds me of the ferryman in the movie The Outlaw Josey Wales. Whistling Dixie when the Rebs show up and Battle Hymn of the Republic when the Yankees arrive.

Yep, the almighty bottom line. Spot on response.

It is crazy as I was thinking the same thing. One of my all-time favorite movies.

Yes exactly. Or the old Italian man in Catch 22. During the German occupation he was for Germany, and now that the Americans spearheaded into Italy, he is for the allies.

Not sure if I am replying correctly but here goes... I think it looks like straight up gas lighting mixed with fear.

You have responded excellently. And yes, always the gaslighting. The go to tactic...

Facebook has always been a thief. They have never really done anything original. 

It started as a MySpace clone. 
Google+ came along, and offer Circles. Facebook steals and adds "Friends Lists".
Google+ starts Communities. Facebook steals and starts "Facebook Groups".
Google+ offers Video Conferencing. Facebook adds video conferencing to Messenger. 
Facebook tries to steal video from YouTube.
Snapchat introduces Stories. Facebook steals and adds "Reels" to Instagram.
TikTok becomes a thing. Facebook modifies "Reels" to function the same and adds it to Facebook too.
Musk buys Twitter. Facebook starts Threads, basically a Twitter/X clone.
Musk champtions free speech on X. And now Zuckerberg is promising free speech on Facebook.

And with the TikTok ban coming up, he may be marketing his reels, with being Mr. Free Speech, luring in customers. 

Ah, good point. I didn't think about that - a strategy to try and claim all the Tiktok users when it goes dark, lol.

It went dark and came back again, apparently.

I don’t do TicTok but I saw where Trump offered to keep it going if America can get a 50% share of the profits.

    • "Marching into March with Much Motivation"

      For this months challenge, we are going to support each other in our efforts to get up and move. Spring is in the air. The weather is getting better. Get out there and MOVE! Go for walks, hike some trails if they aren't too muddy. Or just make a goal to get on the treadmill or lift some weights more than usual throughout the month. Get in the habit now, and we just might have beach bodies when summer officially hits, lol. 

       

      Just like before, we encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk. 

      The March drawing will be for a 4-pack of Carnivore Bars!

      Every Reply in this topic will count as an entry for this month's prize drawing. Back-to-back posts count as 1 entry as a counter to spamming.

      Attending Monday night zoom also counts as a bonus entry. Being a supporter of our YouTube channel also gives you an entry.

      Let's keep our resolutions going strong!

    • Today is February 1st and marks the first day of "National Fasting February" - and yes, this is a thing. Google it!

      For this month's challenge, we are going to support each other in our efforts to practice various forms of fasting throughout the month. The type of fasting you wish to do is entirely up to you. We are going to encourage INTERMITTENT FASTING, that is to put it simply, skipping a meal so that you are only eating 2 meals a day instead of the traditional 3 meals a day. The goal is to enjoy these meals within an 8 hour "feasting window" and then no food in the remaining 16 hours "fasting window" (in which 8 of those hours you should be sleeping).

      An example is waking up at 7am, but waiting until 11am-noon for your first meal, and then having dinner at 6-7pm for your 2nd meal. Other people prefer to eat a breakfast, then a mid-day lunch, and skip dinner. 

      If you want to throw in a 24, 48, or 72 hour fast just to show off by all mean do so, lol.
