Terrorized by Social Media Cartels
By: Hadassah Shabnam Lal
Over the past two years I have been terrorized by Social Media (I quit twitter, deactivated FB for months, stopped blogging). I have spent much time in prayer. I find abhorrent the rights of humans violated, people harassed because of their political affiliations and or religious beliefs. I have made a decision to pursue my "calling to serve Him & his creation" from nearly two decades ago. Many of you don't know that my journey into Social Media began as a result of my love of Yeshua (his real name), YHWH my God and Israel & Jerusalem my future home! I also used FB to create awareness about Abuse, how to stop it and how to deal with abusers & narcissists. I was on FB because it was fun, we could be honest, make new friends worldwide and share stories. Sadly it's not fun anymore! Algorithms feed upon division and hatred. I am a staunch advocate of abuse of any form against any human regardless of race, creed or color. The echo chambers created by the algorithms infringe upon our abilities to see other viewpoints. Many of us have fallen victim to bans, shadow-bans and out right harassment for speaking truth. There is a Russian owned and created Social Media Network called VK. I am seriously considering using that for ministry purposes as they need the salvation message of Messiah Jesus too. I will no longer engage in politics & subject myself and others to terrorism & harassment by the Media Cartels on all fronts. At this point, I have nothing to lose by using a Russian Social Media Company as they stand to gain nothing by sharing my private info, my tidbits, and my data because I live in a "Free Country" which is no longer free because I along with my fellow FBookers are a "mere commodity" not "real human beings created in the image of God Almighty, with families, with feelings, with hopes, dreams and even medical issues that many of you share openly thinking you are "safe". Well you're not, none of us are. So maybe using a Russian Social Network to share and form political groups might not be a bad idea. After all the Russians can't influence us or shut us down, right? We all live in a dream world where we want the old FB back, but the NSA & CIA have weaponized it and we have been sold out. If I do make a decision to use FB in the future it will be strictly for Ministry purposes. I have been followed by cars, drones, which all stopped when I deleted the FB & twitter apps off my phone. I am beyond repulsed by everything that has happened to me as a result of my foray into Social Media over the last eight years, not to mention how violated and angry I have been over such abuse of my privacy and silencing of viewpoints of myself and others.

So very sad, so very sad. May God remove the scales from the hearts and eyes of those focused on Mammon, and not human rights, sanctity, privacy, dignity, compassion and the American Way.
