These days there's not much that causes sympathetic reaction towards FB for me. The site only serves but one purpose IRL, and only one.
However, I fully sympathize with the moderators who are subjected to vile, traumatic content.
August of 2014 I, along w/group spearheaded by @th3j35t3r successfully stopped large accts from spreading the James Foley beheading video on Twitter and I continued reporting accts on youtube/FB as well
you cant emotional unsee that shit
Backstory for #COSO who may not be familiar, didn't follow J back then, or weren't on Social media
In August 2014 a Hashtag was started by a woman in Libya. #ISISMediaBlackOut that aimed to keep twitter accts from sharing the the video. Then @th3j35t3r took it farther and created a "Convoy" to go after the accts. This was before J followed me and when he earned my respect.
Never underestimate the power of a group of Patriots when they get together on a common cause.

@th3j35t3r 3/3
Also, what the article I wrote does not say is those 19 accts we reported had a collective following of about 1.3 million followers and we cut them off
@th3j35t3r (last reply taggin ya J, at least from me for the day lol)
to go back around to the article the Verge did on FB I posted at the top of this thread.
We searched out that horror in 2014. we watched it. We werent told to do so, or got paid, and i can tell personally, for me..... I saw those images for a long time in my head. I cant imagine having that as a job, and what it may do to a person emotionally and mentally.
like I said , you cant unsee that shit
