I made an account after reading this last January to see firsthand what the “gamification” was like. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

I didn’t -and never intended to- buy or sell a single stock.
They give you a free stock when you sign up and I later learned that you can’t close your account until you sell the free stock. 🙄So I contacted customer service on Jan 25 and told them to take their free stock back and close my account. They confirmed they did it on Jan 26.
Apparently they keep customer data for 6 years because SEC regulations but I was still surprised my info was in the breach since I only had an account for like 2 days and didn’t buy or sell anything.

🤷🏻‍♀️ very annoying!

Ok here are some questions and some of my answers ImageImageImageImage
They asked some really weird questions (I refuse to call it Meta) ImageImageImageImage

I don't think Sean Moon was on Scavo's buses. Mainly because he's loaded 💸 and probably had his own ride or flew there but also because I remembered I took screenshots of Scavo's (now deleted) FB live video when the buses arrived in DC and Moon is not there.

A 🧵 with photos:

(CW injured animals)

There is something very wrong with this Facebook page and it's not the first time I've seen a Facebook page like this. They post videos of animals in distress with subtitles and sad music and then rescue them. The grammar and narrative is always a bit odd. ImageImageImageImage
This Facebook page changed names several times. IDK if there were previous posts that were deleted but there have been 54 videos posted since July. The first video was... weird. facebook.com/catloveroffici… ImageImageImage
1 month later and the page was posting very different content. Some people in the comments seem to have noticed that there is something wrong with the video, which was also my impression. facebook.com/10984949706872…

Watch a Dodo video and eventually FB will show you one of these. ImageImage

Some jawdropping quotes:

“As internal documents reveal, Google sought to kill competition and has done so through an array of exclusionary tactics, including an unlawful agreement with Facebook, it's largest potential competitive threat, to manipulate advertising actions."

There were calls to violence and genocidal language circulating on all social media platforms long before and leading up to the 2020 *pogroms* (not riots) activists had been sounding alarms for months.

Here’s a month old Facebook page sending people to a telegram channel to get fake vaccine cards: facebook.com/10354273541340…

Multiple posts that have been public on Facebook since Sept 13 advertising fake vaccine cards. 🤷🏻‍♀️
The Telegram channel was created Sept 21 and currently has 209 subscribers.
