ANOTHER post about Facebook!!!!

I use Facebook and i enjoy it. It keeps me in touch with people I have history with. Yes, I have to roll my eyes a lot and ignore them. I like to think they notice I am not liking some of their stuff, but anyway...

I think I have come to the conclusion that it is the same folks who were bashing Kaepernik and those who chose to take a stand against the injustice of the judicial system by taking a knee during the anthem are the SAME ones who are all "I have to have my guns! It's my right".

I don't think they even see how these two thoughts in the same head show hypocrisy and quite a bit of selfishness. Everyone has forgotten that we are all made of the same stuff and came from the same place. Things get out of whack when a person either values themselves too much (like trump does) or not enough and then when they don't care about themselves they can't care about others.

I think there is a major lack of critical thinking skills in this country. Along with not a good understanding of the Constitution or a good study of history.

Has anyone else noticed this? I guess this question is directed to those who have facebook and still follow people who they don't agree with.

These people don't seem to have any grasp of history whatsoever?
