Jim Carrey says he's deleting his Facebook page and dumping stock over Russian election meddling

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Actor Jim Carrey tweeted Tuesday that he plans to dump his Facebook stock and delete his Facebook page because, he said, the social network "profited" from Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election.

Carrey tweeted the following message with what appears to be his own hand-drawn portrait of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg beside a dislike button emoji:

"I’m dumping my @facebook stock and deleting my page because @facebook profited from Russian interference in our elections and they’re still not doing enough to stop it. I encourage all other investors who care about our future to do the same. #unfriendfacebook"

The same text also appeared in a post on Carrey's Facebook page, which is still up and features the portrait of Zuckerberg as its header photo:

1. Mentally?

You also have to factor in that he may not be all mentally there.

2. Yeah, I agree Zuckerberg must be nuts to let russians use his product to rig our elections.

That or just a traitor.

9. Zuckerberg is an oligarch in the making

I do not trust him one iota.

11. Neither do I. I was being sarcastic.

I have never and will never have a facebook page. He is part of the problem.

Do you think I need a sarcasm tag in my post?

12. I don't think so

I get you. I'm sure everyone else does too.
