Just A Thought…

I know not everyone is on social media. I am on Facebook only because I want to keep in touch with my family and friends. (Isn’t that what Facebook was meant for anyway?)  I have a page set up for this blog as well, but I’m not too active on it. Anyway, Facebook has become the breeding zone for stupidity, rude-ass behavior, and misinformation.

The thing I’ve been seeing a lot of lately – actually since 2016 – are political posts. Sometimes, I check out the comments and it blows my mind how rude and ridiculous people can be. I can’t help but debate with myself about dropping off of Facebook for good…but then…family and friends…

Most of the comments are either from folks who agree or folks who fact-check everything – which is absolutely fine, as long as you don’t get your info from Fox News. Remember how they were sued for almost $800 million for outright lying to the viewers? Anyway, fact-check all you want but here’s a thought…

Make sure you fact-check your own posts before you add to the misinformation and stupidity out there!
