God DAMN it! How is it 2025 and there are still people who do not grasp the very basic concept...

...that when you sign an agreement to join a privately owned social media platform, they are not taking away your free speech by offering consequences when you violate the agreement!?

I always love the posts, usually by someone's older mother/grandmother

"I HEREBY DECLARE THAT I DO NOT GIVE MY PERMISSION FOR FACEBOOK OR META TO USE ANY OF MY PERSONAL DATA."

And I'm all

There are an awful lot of basic concepts many people don't get.

This particular misconception has been really pushed through.

True. I been in Facebook jail so many times, the dining hall is named Crush daddy food court.

@MayorOfCrushtown Me too. And I'm guessing neither of us complained about the First Amendment after, because we understand user agreements.

@LordShadowfire yep, when you speak you mind on social media, you always know there is the payoff getting suspended. Oh well, I’ll take my chances. 😂😂😂

People can't understand that they don't have all their rights at all times, as wherever they are is either their property or public property

No such thing as other people property

Yet someone who is here legally can get disappeared for peaceful protest, the actual type of speech that is protected, and the same people seem to be absolutely okay with that.
