Domestic terrorism is a national security issue and also threatens the election. Light Zuck's feet on fire and keep them lit until he finally deals with the fact that his company is providing an ideological safe haven as well as a communications infrastructure for organizations who pose a clear and present danger to the security of the country.

The poster was making a comparison between your CT and QAnon/Pizzagate.

Zuckerberg is overmatched by the weaponization of FB as a disinformation tool by the RWNM and Putin's bot armies. It caught them with their pants down, but they are too afraid to reign it in.

Twitter is marginally less afraid.

call out the “defund the police” sloganeering. We’ve got Trump on the run and then hand him that on a silver platter. DUMB!!

... sentiment among PoC towards the physical threat of the police.

someones got to get the attention of dem leaders not getting in front of this issue with a slogan already made and Obama's Policing Project For The 21st Century is great policy but doesn't fit on the side of cardboard cut out.

I'm more afraid dem leaders are going to miss the moment to protect PoC from the cops and just like Nixon with Nam Trump will come swoop in promising bullshit.

That poll showed 37% of people want the police heavily reformed, that's about the number of PoC in the US !!!

I now can see how 15% of black people voted for Nixon !!!

and polls are already showing that the majority of Democrats don't want it. The only path Trump has to victory is to use this slogan to hammer Biden and Dems with it. Think that won't work? Watch what they do with it. It's a poison pill at this point. Reforming policing is right, this slogan is NOT.

... and its not Republicans who need to get the attention of its democratic leaders in cities and states still working with PD Unions who are protecting the monsters with badges who kill black people.

This would be a great time for democratic party to step in with a working slogan RIGHT NOW vs complaining about the one they don't like and do it before Red Don pulls a Nixon.

I'm more shocked at the number of white people who are beat on camera by the police than the fact that black people are killed by the PD.

I know if PD's allow cops to beat white people on camera they're kiling me when they think there are no camera's around.

Hell, a 14 yr black kid was choked for fuckin J walking in Tulsa 6 days after the world started protesting Floyd's death !!

I'll protect you're kids from Nam was Nixon's thing to get 15% black vote and Trumps will be I'll protect your kids from the police

We have to get Joe elected first, then we'll solve as many problems as we can. The Thug Party will use this as a club to defeat Joe, then everything is out the window. Wait until November 4th, at the earliest to use it, otherwise it could cost us big time.

... out in front of the "Police will kill my kids" feeling in a lot of neighborhoods of color engendered because we saw 3 weeks of police beating white people on camera.

If the police beat white people on camera they kill me and mine with no camera's are around.

What other thing will wake our leadership up?

A horrible slogan is smart, then get another one and over communicate it or it leaves Red Don a huge Nixon slot to slide in with bullshit.

When people are scared they do stupid crap ... same thing with Nam in the 60s

That's all he did ...

It was communication that got Red Don a higher black vote in 16, I pray we can get in front of this crap now.
