One More Reason to Leave Facebook: Deletion Date Permanant on the Blockchain

I have a confession: I'm addicted to Facebook

I don't like Facebook, but I can't seem to stop logging into Facebook.

They say the first step is confession. If you follow my blog on HIVE and other blockchains, you know I post and comment regularly. But I haven't convinced my core group to make the move over to the blockchain - at this point I doubt they ever will.

So when I have a thought, I post it on FB. Then I compile them and put them on the chain.

The most annoying and irritating thing FB is doing is repeating their "fact check" information under certain posts - especially reminding us how fair and accurate the election results are. Pffft.

So I wanted to make the point: It's a long-time tyranical tradition to repeat lies over and over until they become accepted as "truth". There is no worse thing to me than a falsehood becoming recognized as if it is a "truth".

I responded to a post calling FB out and I insterted a comment: the above photo. I can post this with no fear of retribution (worse case scenario I get some downvotes... oooh)

This crowd is smart enough to know that the sentiment is true: people believe things that are repeated over and over and over, especially if they are repeated by people they care about. Innocently enough, people will vomit out "facts" that lead to an "obvious" conclusion, overlooking any real investigation. After all, leave that to the EXPERTS.

This is not the time for outsourcing your opinions - do your homework, know why you believe what you believe, be willing to re-investigate as new information becomes available, most of all: test everything and hold fast to what is true.

It's Time to DE-FACEBOOK Myself

Psalm one says "walk not in the council of the ungodly", and inversely, "walk in the council of the Godly". I know a Godly man @papa-pepper, who is on Steemit and HIVE. He gave me (and you if you're listening) wise council. He said:

DON'T POST FOR FREE

The clock is running out for the free-posting Facebook, especially as the censorship increases. Why should I continue giving them free stuff, just because of my dopamine addiction?

Scheduled for January 6th

Why January 6th? It's the first evening of a 21 day fast that ends on the evening of January 27th. What better time to "rip the bandaid off" to break my FB addition.

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations. Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

It is always annoying to be censored for expressing what you think.

Not posting for free is good advice :) and it applies to Facebook, Twitter and many other sites.
