POST HASTE CUT & PASTE


By Jeffrey Berger

Earlier today, FaceBook friend Ken Karstens shared this warning message: “It looks like you’re doing a lot on Facebook. Please try again later ..."

Confirmed! Sometimes I have received the same message. Why? Often, I will copy/paste the same comment under multiple posts in quick succession, my daily missive shared among friends. Apparently, an algorithm catches me in the act. Are there other FaceBook frustrations? Yes! Some citations are inaccessible, and not all notifications link to the original source.

In the financial pages of newspapers, I read of record-breaking subscribers using FaceBook. Of course, the simplest and most plausible explanation is that Facebook’s servers are slammed.

Nevertheless, I share Kevin Karsten’s concern — because we have reason to fear the new Mammon in town. Steve Bannon is now titular head of National Security (his recent appointment slipped suspiciously under the radar of full Senate confirmation). In his new role, Sleaze Bannon will see all and know all:



He's making a list and checking it twice. 
Gonna find out who’s naughty or nice.
So you better watch out, you better nor cry.
Better not pout, I’m telling you why:
Fascism is comin’ to town.

  1. Never one for conspiracy theories I'm beginning to think given the current administration the conspiracy stuff may very well become quite real.

    Thankfully it seems the protests, ridicule, media pressure, and the concerns developing within the GOP may be having the desired affect. Constant, relentless, sustained pressure will be critical to defeating the long term agenda of these vermin.
