Man, I wish I was in prison, it sounds pretty great.
Also, what's the deal with pages posting all sorts of random pictures? I see people share things from like 'nachos' or 'sleeping in' and it's always memes and poo poo. If I wanted memes I'd like a meme page, just tell me more about eating nachos and sleeping in dammit

They use the memes to get likes, and we all know 1 like = 100 prayers

It distracts from the fact that they cite no evidence and that their story is bullshit on many levels (the kids were loving arrested, for one thing; also only one was black so it doesn't even work as a DANGEROUS BLACK PEOPLE story) by using pop culture.

Liberate yourself, scream human being and friend of the family and never think about how awful you are. Dismiss valid criticism and ignore the fact that no one wants to be around you except crazy weirdos with fallout shelters full of NRA leaflets for literature. It's legal to be a lovely human being so therefore you must take every opportunity to be one and then cry and whine about oppression when people rightfully hate you.

vvv Wikipedia says it can cause 'vivid hallucinations and delirium' and 'these hallucinations are most commonly described as very unpleasant, and recreational use is considered extremely dangerous because of the high risk of unintentional fatal overdose.' Because it's deadly nightshade.

It's very similar to Angel Trumpet, Datura, etc. Extremely disassociative. Kinda like a 24-48 hour period of an extreme psychotic episode or fever hallucinations.

Facebook pages with a certain number of likes get offers from marketing corporations to buy the page, so people make pages like that and try posting all kinds of content to get their likes high enough.

I will never understand the notion that if you aren't openly racist it's because you're "ashamed" to be white. I attended a debate with a member of the national racist party and they could not understand that some people thought that mosques and hijabs were not a blatant attack on their culture. It was apparently a foregone conclusion that people just were ashamed of their culture and wanted brown people to undermine it.

If they actually called it the National Racist Party, I might respect them slightly more. At least it'd be honest, instead of the "not racist, but" crowd you get now.

It is really the only thing I've ever seen on my Facebook feed that really pissed me off. Fortunately the person I responded to was reasonable and admitted it was stupid and that they hoped it was done tongue-in-cheek. I don't have that sort of faith in humanity.
