My Social Media Pages
I have four Social Media pages. They are:
Overview
I am sure the reader has heard of the first and last of these sites, but you might not have heard of the other two. That is because they are newer sites that were developed by conservatives in reaction to the other two “shadow banning” conservatives.
I might have been so shadow banned of late, though I am not sure. I just know there have been many times I have posted comments on Facebook or Twitter that I thought would bring a significant reaction, but nothing, no response whatsoever. But even if I haven’t already, I am sure to be so in the future, as those sites crack down on conservative speech.
That is why I set up accounts on Gab and Truth Social, to be sure I have a place to voice my opinions. These sites promise not to censor people’s comments, beyond what is required by law.
Note also, if the reader hasn’t figured it out by now, I’m not good at being concise in my writings. But by being so exhaustive, I thoroughly cover every topic I address. And if the reader peruses all of my writings on a given subject, you will be well-versed on the topic at hand.
But that is why I found the 280-character limit on Twitter to be quite restrictive, so I rarely posted to it. But after Elon Musk took it over, renamed it X, and opened it so that “blue check” users could post messages of up to 2,500 characters, I went through the identity confirmation and paid the fee to get a blue check mark. Thus, I now post to X more often. Also, by getting the blue checkmark, I can edit posts and run advertisements on X.
Otherwise, Truth Social has a 1,000-character limit, Gab a 2,000-character limit, and Facebook has no such limits. I try to keep my posts below 1,000 characters, so my messages are still not too wordy, and I can post the same message on all four of these sites.
On these social pages, I post about new items being posted on any of my five websites: my personal website, my Christian website, my fitness website, my Covid website, and my politics website. I also post personal updates, such as about my powerlifting.
No Harsh Language Nor Sexual Content
On my social pages, I ignore all comments and replies that utilize “foul” or indecent language. That means, if you reply to one of my posts using such language, I will not even read your comments, let alone respond to them. I also will not respond to ad hominem attacks.
Simply put, if you cannot respond to the substance of my post in a civil manner, without resorting to name-calling, personal attacks, or foul language, you will not get a response. And if my post is a link to one of my articles or books, then please read that item before responding. If you do not, I will just refer you back to it, and that will be that.
In addition, I do not approve friend requests from cleavage queens, bikini wearers, or from pages with bouncing breasts videos or any other kind of sexual or immoral content. If I did, my social feeds would be filled with pictures of nearly-naked women, as I receive many such requests, probably most from scammers (see below).
I do not approve friend requests from pages filled with foul language. I do not approve friend requests from pages that are nothing but advertisements. I most definitely do not approve friend requests from those hawking steroids. If I friend you and offensive stuff like the preceding begin to appear from you on my timeline, I will unfriend you. I will also unfriend you if you “tag” me in a post that has nothing to do with me.
Messaging and Scams
Feel free to message
me through any of my social media pages or to email me by using the Contact
Information link at the bottom of any page of any of my websites. But only do so
if you have a specific comment or question on something I have written or about
me personally. And the
same rules apply as above for social media posts. I will ignore any messages
with foul or harsh language or sexual content.
In addition, I do not respond to people messaging
or emailing me and just saying “Hi” or the like. I
know there is a scam in there somewhere. That is especially the case if the
profile picture is of a super-attractive 30-something female. I know such would
not be trying to correspond with me, a 60-something, short, average looking guy
(see Newsmax.
People Tend to Marry People as Attractive as They Are).
You are probably an unemployed guy, sitting in your underwear in your mother’s basement, as you troll for lonely old men using fake pictures of hot women. You need to repent of your attempts to deceive people and find forgiveness in Christ. Then find a real job.
A couple of Bible verses are worth noting before bugging me:
“fornicators and … all liars, their part [will be] in the lake, the one being burned with fire and sulfur [or, brimstone], which is the second death” (Revelation 21:8b).
9You* know that unrighteous [persons] will not inherit [the] kingdom of God, do you* not? Stop being led astray [fig., being deceived]; 10… neither fornicators nor ... swindlers [or, scammers] will inherit [the] kingdom of God (1Corinthians 6:9-10).
If I sound upset here, it is because I am tired of receiving all of these offensive and scam friend requests and messages. But if you repent and trust in Jesus Christ, you can be forgiven and delivered out of the need to engage in such sinful activities and to dress in a sexually suggestive manner:
19Therefore, repent and turn back [to God] in order for your* sins to be blotted out, in order that times of refreshing shall come from [the] face [fig., presence] of the Lord (Acts 3:19).
9that if you confess with your mouth [the] Lord Jesus [or, [that] Jesus [is] Lord], and believe in your heart that God raised Him from [the] dead, you will be saved! (Romans 10:9).
11And these some [of] you* were! [or, And such were some of you*!] But you* yourselves were washed [fig., purified], but you* were sanctified, but you* were justified [or, declared righteous] in the name of the Lord Jesus and in [or, by] the Spirit of our God! (1Corinthians 6:11).
Finally, for those who do not understand why I do not want my social feeds filled with pictures of nearly naked women and sexual content, it is probably because you are not a Christian. Consequently, you do not understand Christian morality and modesty. To understand such, see my books on Sex and the Bible.
