Yep…I knew when I titled this, you would read it! But I thought this was a wonderful thought provoking image.
Over the past couple of weeks of the “Cambridge Analytica/FaceBook” Congressional hearings, I have realized how many posts are incredibly one opinion or another with extremely suspicious origins, especially in regards to political issues. I have decided to hide, delete, stop all posts that come without any personal comment or thought shared. It seems that if the post was important enough to share then it should be important enough for the poster to expand, explain or share why they think this way. Not just a request to share and repost to incite or goad.. It appears that is just how some divisive and ridiculous ideas are spread. I am always anxious to hear different points of view, but I would rather hear it from people I know and admire, not a meme that I have no idea who or where it came from. I find now that many of the other posts, games, ads, pictures, and memes of unknown origin (in other words I am looking at the noted source) are being deleted too. It is not that I have anything to hide or do not want to keep anyone “stealing” my personal info…If they find it interesting; I would be tickled to have them steal it. But…I do have control over my own Facebook experience and I would prefer that it be entertaining, funny, educational, uplifting, thought provoking and/or just plain good. In this instance, I get to decide what is a six or a nine.
