Stop, you're making a comment that is not unequivocally anti-Facebook, therefore it is incorrect

We've banned this account for repeatedly posting unsubstantive comments and ignoring our requests to stop.

I have read it three times. It doesn’t make sense. I have no idea what is being alleged.

Facebook abused their position against developers. Kind of like if Apple gave developers full access to all details of every iPhone owner to convince them to develop iPhone apps, then when they get developers onboard they start cutting access randomly to devs, and offer some devs lowball offers to sell with the implied threat of “or we’ll cut you off entirely”.

I can’t imagine that “randomly” makes sense, or that they have proof of anything like that. “Arbitrarily” means that Facebook gets to decide how much of a creep is too much. It’s very confusing to have the same talk about an offer to sell their company: creeps are the last thing Facebook wants on their payroll.

What is alt-right? I thought it was people who don't like immigration. Seems to have nothing to do with this. Edit: Just read up on the term. It's meaningless.

Exactly. Not to start a whole thing, but almost anytime you read alt-right, in context it means “person I don’t like the internet said exists”.

laughable... truly laughable... Get a grip, you are talking to us.. not your parents. We know what the Alt-Right is. ANd we rightly despise it and its fantasist apologists.
