I got Facebook to remove content from the Tea Party Facebook page that Ron DeSantis

moderates. Ha ha ha ha ha! Our actions can make a difference. Anyone else want to join in, please do.

Our reply

Today at 5:00 PM

We reviewed Tea Party and found content in this group that doesn't follow our Community Standards. We removed that specific content (example: photos, posts) instead of the entire group.

Please let us know if you see anything else that concerns you. If you want us to look at something specific in a group, be sure to report the content (example: photo), not the entire group. We want to keep Facebook safe and welcoming for everyone.

I posted something that got flagged by a troll who was just trying to knock me off a thread. Facebook removed it, but after I responded to their removal notice, they reposted it. Give them a little credit.

it's the fact that DeSantis is a volunteer administrator of a Facebook page that traffics in bigotry, hate & conspiracy theories that what's so heinous.

The more negative attention we can bring to Desantis the better. Racist? Check Trump loving ass-kisser? Check. Insult to all Floridian's intelligence? Absolutely.

This race for Governor in Florida will be a real test of ideas and vision - a proxy war of Us vs Trump and will attract a lot of interest and media attention.
