I just posted this on my Facebook page:

If you voted for Trump, please remove me from your friends list, please do not follow me on Facebook any longer.


I will now proceed to block those that I know are MAGAts, including some family members. It should hurt me to do this to members of my family, however, I am not hurt in the least. One of these is a family member to whom I provide some financial support that I know is critical to him . . . I'm cutting him off.

Harden your hearts and sharpen your knives.

Tired of being polite to them. They can all fuck off.

3. Good for you on cutting the dead weight. They want to cut wasteful spending right?

5. A school board president in Butler County, PA, put up a post like yours.

Her post was more biting, though. Some right-wing residents of the school district have clamored for her resignation. I feel a public official's expressing of political views in his or her private social media account is not grounds for removal from office.

You wouldn't believe how difficult that was. And it will take a month or MORE for them to actually remove my data. Fck. I already downloaded my content to my local machine so.... If anyone there, on Facebook, want's to contact me who I believe should be able to contact me, they already know how to contact me outside of Facebook.

Fck that site.
