...Banned By Facebook!!

Post by MikeKozlowski »

...By popular request, a post I made today on FB, which was banned for - wait for it - 'inciting violence':
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

"Screw that; nuke these goons and let's get back to the club."

/Competing thoughts whilst trying to deal with my team of crack industrial commandos this morning
I would of course like to apologize to any Mentats, Arrakeen, and of course Sardarukar who may have been offended.

Twitter once banned me because this was <checks notes> "revenge porn".

To be fair I'd added the "sad trombone noises" soundtrack behind it to make a point to someone who was going on about how there were no black people in Medieval England, and I think that was just too much for it's tiny little brain to handle.

OK what's the horn with a perforated Coke can on it? and that's a suspiciously modern trombone.

Ha, the trombone is more likely a sackbut, 1495 onwards. That's actually a Portugese painting, 1520 https://kimballtrombone.com/2010/02/18/ ... ebrations/
