559 pages and 221 accounts shutdown.  

But you know as long a it's only "crazies"  like Alex Jones, Right Wing News, uh..Diamond and Silk....errrr Prager University...it's okay.  Note that no Leftst pages, like Democrat Underground or any Antifa pages have been shutdown, so it's all good.

And they wonder why they keep losing.


'THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SEE WHAT YOU ARE DOING !!!!'  
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I keep wondering if this censorship just motivates Republicans/conservatives.  They are not monolithic enough for no one to notice.

If you have 3.1 million followers or 816,000 followers, someone just might notice when you go missing....

(But can't do a darned thing about it except gnash their teeth in frustration.)
WHATEVER YOUR DEFINITION OF "INFRINGE " IS, YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOING IT.

If it weren't for the fact that that is how I keep up with some friends and family and I like to "poke the bear" I wouldn't be on it. I've been doing my best to be bounced from there  Twatter and G+ here lately.
I might not last very long or be very effective but I'll be a real pain in the ass for a minute!
MOLON LABE!
