The masses never revolt of their own accord, and they never revolt merely because they are oppressed. Indeed, so long as they are not permitted to have standards of comparison, they never even become aware that they are oppressed. ~ George Orwell, 1984

A day at a time in a week of patience is an old family saying that goes back several generations and to which the current fast-paced ‘phone-forever-in-hand’ generations would be well advised to take note of. Especially in doctor waiting rooms and elsewhere.

But I digress.

This past week found me encumbered with impatience as I (like many others it quickly became apparent) found myself locked out, as it were, from communications within the most used social platform on the planet. Forgive me for not referring to them by name as I might well be yanked again.

So without further ado, here’s how I coped with the past seven days sans social media…

DAY ONE – July 21 2019
At precisely 7:45 am communication with the Mother Ship was abruptly shut off with a warning message that…

 This comment goes against our Community Standards on hate speech. IN REVIEW. ACTIVITY. About your comment. Jul 20. Only you can see this comment. If you request a review, we’ll have someone take another look at the comment.

DAY TWO – Extolling America’s Greatness

Neil Armstrong, Jul 20 1969 one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind

Astronauts, life, God, and gulp, Bible

********************

DAY THREE
Now granted, one part of me avers to the response from one of the thread commenters, hashtag ‘starknakedtruth’ who bluntly expresses it ‘Why anyone still remains on FB is beyond me’. Or ‘zorcon’, ‘Do like me – Just don’t use Farcebook anymore. I killed that 6 years ago and miss it not’.

Mark Zuckerberg being grilled on FB policies…

Both excellent pointers, and both of which I have seriously considered many times. But honestly, I have so many years invested in the darned thing that pulling the plug would be a definite last resort. In an age when just about anything you disagree with is ‘hate,’ and a huge percentage of the general population accepts that standard, it’s almost impossible to find moderators who won’t knee-jerk ban.

Who made FB the arbiter of truth?

DAY FOUR
[and that from] An 85-year-old Grandmother!

Mark Zuckerberg being grilled on Facebook policies and community standards…

As Taylor Day put it on her closer yesterday (so far she hasn’t been blocked on her FB page!): ‘When someone like Paul Joseph Watson or Laura Loomer gets deplatformed, there is a measurable monetary loss and it is assumed that an executive in corporate Facebook land somewhere has considered a lot of factors before reaching that decision’.

‘For some weird reason, we collectively don’t consider the people that have this power to control what content we are allowed to see on Facebook.  Neither is there a call for a safeguard that ensures that individuals’ beliefs, whether religious, racial or political, don’t play a part in what is deemed a violation of Community Standards.  The number one reason for employee turnover is because their accuracy rating is too low’.

Community standards FB lameduck

DAY FIVE

Pres. Trump and Shifty Schiff the next Black Swan?

Musing while still in Facebook Jail, Day 5, bouncing in and out of this sham of a (ahem) ‘hearing’ and the stars of the show, Mueller + Schiffty lies. Consider just the minimal background of who is centerstage for the next few hours…

A criminal cover-up artist extraordinaire, having wrecked the lives of far too many; Pan Am flight 103; terrorist financing of BCCI; Anthrax; HSBC; Lockheed; 9/11; Whitey Bulger; Uranium One; Epstein; Russia Gate … Sellout of America and the political elite. Mr. Mueller has been on the Clinton payroll for over 20 years along with Comey and McCabe and many more.

And then Schiffty-Schiff, no angel, he.

Mueller+Schiffty lies: FB jail, day 5

********************

DAY SIX

President Trump arena clean-up man… MAGA!

The stark fact of the matter is that the increasingly-futile DemoMarxist clan movement (they’re not a meaningful ‘party’ anymore) think of their voters merely as ‘useful idiots’ and nothing less. They are obviously not the party that once cared about the working men and women of this country.

These days (and for the past umpteen years since ‘Billy-sex-Bob’ and his floosie HillaryRob’em began their mobster attack on the Constitutional Republic) they exist only for power and will say or do anything to gain or retain this power.

Regardless of who actually wrote the report, it went out under Mueller’s name and he is responsible for its contents. This means that he should have read it, which he apparently did not. This reflects a basic lack of professionalism.

If only Mueller’s circumspection about staying within scope during his testimony had been applied during his investigation, he would have closed up shop after Day One.

Mueller madness (on day 6 FB ban)

DAY SEVEN
Exactly seven days to the minute, Mother Ship resumed contact, which allowed me to post….

That is perhaps, what Mueller craved and what he lusted after. He NEVER thought he would have to actually do anything. Just put his name on the report and play the role. Like Greg Brady as Johnny Bravo. He fit the suit.

But he didn’t count on the gathering storm set in motion by Donald J. Trump deciding to play his hand. The Democrat liberal leftist elites and globalist RINOs to this day, have absolutely no idea how on God’s green earth POTUS #45 beat DC, the International Community, The Swamp, the MSM, and all the dark forces assembled against him.

But Trump did.

Grandkids and Stars and Stripes … nothing better!

For all of his supposed flaws, no man has ever defeated so many dangerous combined enemies single-handedly with the guile and instinct of Donald J. Trump. Every time people think he says or does something stupid, he proves everybody wrong.

Yours truly tapped out on him long ago and quit trying to second guess him. And that sentiment goes all the way back to the late ’70s and mid-’80s.

Is it a master plan or pure instinct? Who cares! It works!

No person has ever faced or taken on these powers before. Any other man would have given up, resigned, become an alcoholic, or joined up with the rest of the Luciferian swamp-dwelling snakes. The first and foremost of which are those in the extemporaneous alphabet-soup lamestream deep state lying media, who spew falsifications, innuendos, ‘ifs, ands, buts’, maybes, perhaps’s, and every other ill-informed transmogrification that the enemy within can come up with. Every day.

Yes, folks, We the People have just witnessed a long, tiresome and weary bizarre transmogrification that can happen in politics. Particularly within the once-proud Democrat party, which by this latest inculcation of corruption and deceit, has proved itself and its adherents no more worthy than the criminals they have become.

I enjoy talking to you. Your mind appeals to me. It resembles my own mind except that you happen to be insane. Two and two are four. Sometimes, Winston. Sometimes they are five. Sometimes they are three. Sometimes they are all of them at once. You must try harder. It is not easy to become sane. ~ George Orwell, 1984
