A Blog by Any Other Name

Is just nomenclature jargon pointing to the absolute fact that it is part and parcel of social media.
.
And what is social media? Social media is the extension and continuation of the historic dissemination of news, opinion and information to society, for society and among society for the benefit of society! 
.

How important is social media? Maybe we should ask the failing newspapers! Newspapers that are closing down their paper editions in favor of social media blogging. Newspapers that have become little more than advertising flyers with a smattering of relevant information owned and operated by a handful of corporations often under the financial influence of government. 
.
Now we come to the crucial bit. Now is the time to make the plausible claim that social media belongs to society and NOT the private domain of any corporation or individual and certainly NOT to be under the control of ideologues skewing the very concept of free speech. 
.
Try to imagine for a moment having your telephone or internet service interrupted or terminated predicated on someone or some entity deciding they considered your conversation went against their version of 'community standards' or that you were conversing too fast or that you were spreading your opinion among too many others!

.When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone he gave it to the Citizens of the world. He didn't stick around to censor the Citizen's use of his invention or to use his invention to abuse the Citizen by interfering with the Citizen's right to free speech! Inventing, discovering or even the ownership of such does not mean the inventor, discoverer or even the owner is the arbiter of 'community standards' nor does it put same in control of 'free speech'! 
.
The most pronounced example of Facebook censoring and controlling free speech is their removing the 'share button' whenever Facebook doesn't want the Citizen to have their opinion transmitted to others on matters not approved by Facebook or their political masters. Social media is far to important to society to allow it's inherit free speech to be abused by anyone on the bases of ownership. Facebook censors are so petty that they even truncate 'See more memories' while overlooking full blown pornography!

.
Facebook claims to protect social media under their charade of 'community standards' by denying access WITHOUT explanation or recourse. This, from an entity that sells advertising to scam artists who cheat Citizens under the Facebook claim of 'community standards'. 
.

Buy a product - get a key chain!

OMG! Don't let the Citizens 'SHARE' this!

OMG! Don't let the Citizens 'SHARE' this!

 OMG! Don't let the Citizens 'SHARE' this!

OMG! Don't let the Citizens 'SHARE' this!

The reason this conspiracy against the Citizen is allowed is because the powers that be want it that way! The powers that be are afraid of the Citizen coming to their own conclusions through free speech!
.

What is the message when not a single political party of our government is willing to defend our Rights and Freedoms?
