“Unhappy it is, though, to reflect that a brother’s sword has been sheathed in a brother’s breast and that the once-happy plains of America are either to be drenched with blood or inhabited by slaves. Sad alternative! But can a virtuous man hesitate in his choice?” - George Washington, 1777

Facebook jail is getting ridiculous.
I was just thrown in Facebook jail for this picture that I posted last April:
Pretty sure they have you both on a list at this point. The old KGB and Stasi wish they'd had the tools modern tech companies use to push their agendas (and punish all those who look like they might disagree with said agenda).
It earned me a thirty day ban for "promoting a hate group or ideology." Apparently, Facebook feels that posting a picture of Hitler while mocking those who are calling me a Nazi means that I support the Nazi party.
The funny part is that my business is a paid advertiser of Facebook, and the ban is preventing me from accessing my business advertising. I am pulling all of my paid advertising from their platform, and I will no longer do business with them. I know that they don't care, but it will make me feel better.

You are kidding me... Do you know how many times I have posted that in FB?
I'll just sit and wait for the announcement of my sentence
