I remember that very well. They want everybody eating their product and woe be to anyone who doesn't.

In any sort of debate, you'll get people who defend the status quo, because it's working fine for them. Ranchers are particularly fond of their subsidies and monopolies. http://www.alternet.org/food/ranchers-and-activists-agree-its-time-sto

I don't want to debate veganism here. We could start another thread if anyone cared. It just bugs me that people would go so far to silence debate on a rather harmless practice.

Agricultural lobbyists are pushing legislation that would outlaw undercover investigations and videos. According to CNN, three states—Idaho, Missouri and Utah—have passed “ag-gag” laws, while another 14 have considered them. http://ecowatch.com/2014/06/27/buried-alive-chickens-investigation/

Idaho and Wyoming call for jail time. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ag-gag

Lucky for you the Facebook trolls can't get you jailed. Yet.

Probably a committee of lawyers working for agricultural businesses are drafting a Facebook law based on anti-terror law. https://news.vice.com/article/canadians-protest-proposed-anti-terror-l

Ag gag laws are brought to us by ALEC, the organization the Kochs use to craft legislation which they lobby for, particularly in red states.

They're also behind all the "stand your ground" and "freedom to discriminate" laws passed in such states. Here in Indiana, right wing Christofascists just passed such a law.

They're turning back the clock to a time that never was.

You could probably be kicked off Facebook for disrespecting the seafood industry.

Today I saw this unhappy story about the industry being shocked, totally shocked, that their fishermen are slaves and their fishermen die to bring you delicious shrimp and sushi. www.csmonitor.com/World/Asia-Pacific/2015/0324/AP-investigation-Are-sl
aves-catching-the-fish-you-buy


The slaves interviewed by the AP described 20- to 22-hour shifts and unclean drinking water. Almost all said they were kicked, beaten, or whipped with toxic stingray tails if they complained or tried to rest. They were paid little or nothing.

Runaway Hlaing Min said many died at sea.

"If Americans and Europeans are eating this fish, they should remember us. There must be a mountain of bones under the sea," he said. "The bones of the people could be an island, it's that many."

This quote is yummy:

Quote:

In the past, former slave Hla Phyo said, supervisors on ships simply tossed bodies into the sea to be devoured by sharks. But after authorities and companies started demanding that every man be accounted for on the roster upon return, captains began stowing corpses alongside the fish in ship freezers until they arrived back in Benjina.

"I'm starting to feel like I will be in Indonesia forever," said Phyo, wiping a tear away. "I remember thinking when I was digging, the only thing that awaits us here is death."

To sadden our hearts let's end with a cartoon about Firefly from, of all places, FaceBook!

Why Europe says you shouldn’t use Facebook:
Don’t use Facebook if you want to keep the NSA away from your data

The European Commission admitted yesterday that the US-EU Safe Harbor framework for transatlantic data transfers does not adequately protect EU citizens' data from US spying. The European Commission's attorney Bernhard Schima told the CJEU's attorney general: "You might consider closing your Facebook account if you have one." –

lol. No wonder why Reverfan is a wackjob. He probably hasn't had a decent meal in years.

I maybe possibly have a facebook account somewhere, I guess it might have some kind of personal details but I rarely ever log into this account. Even when my social stuff was buzzing even when I worked with wiring and lights and the arts I never really used it, I would say i read it got hacked and people lost their passwords...I always gave an excuse like it has too much spam or I didnt have time for it, I prefered to have people by phone and meet them the old fashioned way in real life. It's harder to travel around and meet people acorss the world with the global lockdown going on but I will still limit my facebook use.

Politics - you get some personal opinions of mine here, jokes, troll posts, debating here. Some people are dumb enough to give Zuckerberg all their personal opinions.

Trump banned by twitter, facebooks?

We all know why Reaverbot was kicked off of Facebook.

I wonder how many people per day he was telling to kill themselves because they enjoy a cheeseburger.


Meat is neat.

--------------------------------------------------

And he who is not sufficiently courageous to defend his soul — don’t let him be proud of his ‘progressive’ views, and don’t let him boast that he is an academician or a people’s artist, a distinguished figure or a general. Let him say to himself: I am a part of the herd and a coward. It’s all the same to me as long as I’m fed and kept warm.

Legal Experts Tear Apart Trump’s Lawsuit: ‘Every Bit as Stupid as You’d Think It Is’

On Wednesday, ex-president Donald Trump held a press conference to describe his new class-action lawsuit against Google, Facebook, and Twitter over “illegal, shameful censorship of the American people.”

Naturally, the punditry and #Resist crowds had the snarkiest and strongest reactions, but limiting the reaction pool to just experts yields nearly the same general tone: mockery and disdain.

Poor donnie, everyone is laughing at him again.
