Can you believe these m**f*ckers!? I'm not going to put all the blame on Facebook, because I'm sure trump threatened them in some way. We are in a banana republic right now.

(90,339 posts)... politifact decided to narrow the definition of what "main street" was to call the ad false.
The Feds have ... NOT ... committed to buying consume debt level like they have at the corporate level
WTF ?!?!

(92,190 posts)excuse that there are things that different people get wrong. I don't think it was intentional
Right Zuckerberg, a holocaust denier is not doing it intentionally.
How stupid do you think people are?

(45,806 posts)out of work for months" I bet FB would OK it. I'm pretty sure DT complained about not including anything re: the billions trying to help businesses & people.
I really liked the ad, but if their reason for cutting the ad was misleading about the bailout, then put it in there.

(90,339 posts)... even on the year during a pandemic and the S&P went up 35% off the lows.
The Feds are not committing to buying consumer debt or even thinking about refinancing it to zero which they could easily do and boost the shit out the economy to the point of being concerned about inflation.
No
Feds say; Corporate debt? bought ... consumer debt? f**k off ... the add is correct, Trump picks the fed chief and con "suggest" something of the sort.

(90,339 posts)... corporate junk bond ETFs meaning ... NO ... corporation can go out of business for lack of being able to borrow funds at low interest rates.
https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/04/investing/fed-junk-bonds-etfs-debt/index.html
That FED commitment fast stopped the index slides downward past 31% because even the worse run companies have money to borrow and didn't have to go out of business now and didn't need to borrow from the PPP ... which they did anyway mind you.
The NASDAQ is even for the year now !!
Get that,
We're about to report Great Depression unemployment and the NASDAQ is even for the year and because of the heavyweight of Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Google ("FAANG" stocks) in the other index's IE the reason why the indexes go up on bad broad econ news.
Marc Goldwein is either an idiot or the enemy and should know the FEDs commitment to buy Junk Bond ETFs (which is damn near text book socialism) is what stopped the index slides and now has the DOW going up on bad news

(1,832 posts)I think Politifact is kind of correct, but since the ad is made with such broad strokes, that sentence should be allowed. And yes, FB do stuff different now than four years ago.

Facebook is malware for democracy.

(17,339 posts)So, the answer is to get people to post the video.
Which I shall do again.

And whatever Cambridge Analytica calls itself now is definitely doing it again. With Facebook's help.
But, yeah, you can't zoom or phone a grandchild and MUST have Facebook. Because reasons.
OR, you're going to stay on Facebook and singlehandedly fight against the data mining and message flooding. Because you're that good at it.
We do these things to ourselves.
