In my hobbies most contain people who are conservative republicans, NASCAR, football and my pigeon hobby. For the past few days on Facebook I have been voicing my opinion on NASCAR and NFL pages.
Well this morning I see a lot have linked or pointed out my place of employment. No biggie as I don't really have political slams on my Facebook.
The most disappointing was an email dis inviting me from judging a pigeon show out of state. In my hobby pretty awesome to be invited to do that or be considered.
Here is the text.
:I wish you would decline the judging invitation as I am not in the habit of welcoming liberals into my home:

(20,875 posts)Briefly had an acct. w/Fakebook & dumped it quickly.
Too many ads by big pharma pushing the poisons that killed my beloved cat and too many lazy people out there that believe their crap!
I know people and Fakebook literally runs their lives. I find it unbelievable that anyone would be so desperate for a "social network" such as Fakebook is. & so early in the day too!

(5,500 posts)I use Facebook as a picture repository and way to keep in touch with a few people. It also has some redeeming qualities. However, I've come to the conclusion that Facebook is mostly evil, and can easily destroy someone's life. It's a den of vipers - con artists, pedophiles, sociopathic trolls, bots, viruses, etc.
I don't think anyone under 18 should be using it. It's extremely dangerous if misused.

(58,785 posts)but hopefully it is already regretted. Definitely go judge, in fact insist if further resistance is raised, and, as said, "talk pigeon."
