I would share this on FB but nobody would understand it.
Employers also use social networking to spy on employees as well as applicants.

This totally fits within the "psyops" that works to get us to relinquish our relationships on the ground in our real lives so we are powerless to resist the final phases of our nwo enslavement.
Our power exists only in our unity on the ground in the real world. Time to relinquish all social networking and get to know your nieghbors, get to know the activists in your community that are educated in these issues so the veracity of the true situation we are entering can be discussed before those who are not educated, who are alone, who are subject to being controlled in their thoughts and feelings.
Gather and assemble under our constitutional rights. Celebrate our true past, share the meaningful aspects of it. Reject corporate entertainment and embrace local performance artists of all types that share messages of unity.
