The Conway Pubic Library is having Sex performers promote gender dysphoria in children later this month. MiMi Malevolent, one of the two Drag Queens Scheduled, is on Facebook.

May 19, 2019May 19, 2019 Steve MacDonald

We’ve been a bit lax in the Facebook poll business lately. But when the 8th circuit ruled that States have an interest in not allowing women to expose their breasts in public, we figured we had to ask our Facebook Fans what they thought?

May 7, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Big tech and social media are biased. They are, and they should admit it. Honesty matters. But they don’t. They let the Muslim Brotherhood tweet while GraniteGrok gets banned for sharing real news. Texas doesn’t like it, and they’ve proposed a legislative ‘solution.’

Did You Hear About Facebook’s Latest Content Ban?

April 14, 2019April 14, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Last week Facebook began banning content it decides ” glorifies white nationalism and separatism.” Facebook is entitled to do whatever it wants but if Hate is the problem and Facebook has a cure, they’d better take a look over the edge of that tiny ideological box into which they’ve crammed their so-called public interest.

This Weeks Facebook Poll Question – Local Schools as Gun Free Zones

February 17, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The gun-grabbers love to whittle away your ability to carry. Require permission. Make that process more complicated and expensive. Make it inconvenient to carry so that you are first forced and then get used to not doing it. Maybe get someone busted for carrying in some location where they have made it “illegal.” Use the media to … Read more
