Posted to fecesbook, will report results.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

No adverse response from fecesbook over my posting.

I don't go to farcebook but I wonder what would happen if someone quoted Shakespeare with something like; "I dare do all that becomes a man. Who does more is none."

They'll probably ban it for inciting a riot or something.

I should have been clearer in the OP, that this was happening on Instagram, owned by facebook, which is why I made the facebook reference. I'm not sure what they were doing at actual facebook.

This should be no surprise as they are trying to re-write history.  :facepalm:
