I just keep their Facebook accounts logged in on my phone. Every few months, I will go onto their profiles and unlike pages like “Wear your poppy with pride” and deradicalize their algorithm. Poppies for British boomers on Facebook are like Elsa and Spiderman on YouTube for babies.
Very good idea there. I’m starting to have to keep track of my parents passwords (because they don’t) and removing spam/disinformation from their Facebook/email/YouTube regularly might resolve many issues.
Like someone mentioned, shoveling the shit. Can’t stopped it from getting there, but I can remove it.
It’s also silly that people get upset at a bunch of Asian countries who still use the swastika. But a lot of people outside the cultures instantly think of Nazis.
They are where you’ll find the deeply ignorant, xenophobic, Daily Mail readers frothing at the mouth and red in the face with anger over how “forriners” are lazy criminals that come here to claim benefits for them and their 16 kids, while simultaneously stealing all the jobs and homes from “hard working British families” (read: “British benefit claimants out of work and living in grothole housing owned by a local slumlord”).

How are poppies radical on Facebook?
Because the wearing of poppies has become synonymous with the now defunct BNP and the rest of the British right wing for a lot of us.
You can thank Stephen Yaxley-Lennon for that.
That’s a bit silly. The symbol has existed as one of remembrance for over 100 years. We shouldn’t let fascists take claim of it
Although I take this to mean that the ‘poppy pages’ are actually fronts for bigotry?
Of course it’s silly.

We shouldn’t be getting upset at swastikas being used within their asian context.
Correct.

Facebook slowly pushing more shit and you shoveling the shit away. Nicely done!
