Being Removed From Facebook and Twitter

by minimus in

i have a very good friend who has been banned from facebook simply because he makes remarks positive about president trump and negative toward the democratic party.

he has tried to get back on facebook and it appears there is no way for him to return.

people are being removed from social media platforms simply because they have a different political view.

Min - I have a very good friend who has been banned from Facebook simply because he makes remarks positive about President Trump and negative toward the Democratic Party. He has tried to get back on Facebook and it appears there is no way for him to return.

Depends what he says I suppose.

It seems weird how some lefties say that FB is pro right and some righties say FB is pro left.

I ignore the political BS on FB. USA politics is irellevant to me and UK politics is now being really exposed as corrupt.

I saw a hat that made me smirk...'Brexiteers for Trump'.

Although I'd never wear it , nor am interested in the politics of it......it did amuse me for how annoying it could be for people.

...but then, I am a Punk.

Finding a mate

by MissMary in

so here i am 44 yr old divorced and free to remarry jw sister....first time single since i was 19. but guess what no single brothers in my area.

i’ve tried those stupid jw dating sites and still no luck.

oh yes there are tons of single brothers, but guess what...they all expect a hot barbie to come running into their life.

Dio - I'm sorry to hear that Uncle Punky I thought you guys were still together

thank you for you kind thoughts Dio.

She said she wanted to and then ghosted about a year ago. I didn't hear anything until she visited my son and had her new hanger on Jobo fellah with her. She's only known him a few months, too. He's been married 3 times already and there is some dark secret about his divorce.....probably why no Jobos attended the wedding. That's their lives, none of my business. I don't really care anymore weirdly enough. It's like seeing strangers on a boring TV show.

I saw photos. He was wearing a kilt. I'm not a fan of kilts, but each to their own...wear what you want, I won't be impressed. Attention seeking is not my bag. She was dressed up all in red and looked like tomato sauce bottle with a feather on top.

It did feel like I'd been betrayed, but then what do you expect from a Jobo? They act just like their leaders.

I think this is me now. Single, aloof but a bloomin' good grandfather.

I hope all goes well for you.

I'm 62 and my JW wife left 8 years ago and has now re-married a Jobo...............I'm not sure who to feel sorry for.

I have reached a stage where I don't NEED a partner. I guess it'd be nice but it's not a need.

Co-dependency will not define me. I'm not made whole by another person. I am whole on my own.

I am not unavailable but I'm not looking.

...........if that helps you see another mind-set?

Have You Changed Your Viewing Habits Regarding Sports and Entertainment?

by minimus in

jw
friends

do you still avidly view sports and entertainment?

have you been affected by athletes views on racism, the national anthem, white peoples vs. black?

same question for those in the entertainment industry.

punkofnice

I never watched sport of any kind unless I was a captive audience.

I have become sick of all the virtue signalling that's going on these days.

If I do watch telly, I've boycotted the BBC and tend to watch old shows from way back when.

Since the corona mess, I've seen 'celebs' so desperate to crave attention, it's become embarrassing to see.

My boycotting 'brands' is another thing altogether. Why do capitalist companies virtue signal about groups that want to destroy capitalism? Money?

The BBC have become a disgusting joke.

When did WT lose the spirit?

by Smiles in

at what time would you say that the watch tower schema lost the spirit?.

like the ancient nation of israel which struggled maintaining divine blessing due to a long series of grave errors that eventually culminated in definitive loss... how and when did watch tower lose the spirit?.

can we pinpoint a time or event?.

punkofnice

Please do not reply with 'JWs never had the spirit'

Well, that's me out of the conversation.

I don't believe in god, jesus or holy spirit, so there is that.................................

Jehovah provided zoom?!

by Tim207 in

seems like every zoom meeting someone comments how happy they are that jehovah has provided us with this wonderful app called zoom.

does that mean jehovah knew about covid back in 2011 when zoom was founded?

why do people thank god for things people create?

punkofnice

So, if hard Atheists, like myself use Zoom (tm), why doesn't Jah-hoover block me?

It's to be expected. They dare not stop virtue signalling about their imaginary sky friend.

I heard that they were ramping up 'go bags' recently,locally at least. I wonder where they'll have to go? Not the KHs, they'll all be sold.

I've used Zoom several times. My DA status was unimpaired ...I am tittering here

brothers and sisters associated with the watchtower society may 9, 2020. i have tried to inform you of the necessary adjustments you ought to take in order to truly be in the truth.

but my efforts have remained fruitless.

you well know the biblical procedure.

Let me get this straight. Are you claiming to be God's mouthpiece?

Has Anything Positive Come Out Of This Coronavirus Isolation For You?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i guess you could make a case of more families being together although that might not be the best situation.

less cars and pollutants mean we can breathe better.

if you were ever uncomfortable in crowds, this could be good news.

punkofnice

I don't like it, but hey, wadda ya gonna do?

I've got sick of virtue signalling celebs clamouring for attention, now that they're not relevant.

Even FB buddies are annoying me with their virtue signalling bull. You know, 'Hey, I just wanted to say.....' then they bleed out some self important blather about 'stay safe', 'stay home', 'clap the NHS'. Frankly, it's made me think again about people. Then there are the self righteous being aggressive about what they think you should do, even if it's at odds with government guidelines. The utter arrogance of these brain dead sheeple.

I'm not saying there's not a pandemic but......................god........go away. We get it. Four corfe!

Rant over!
