Fascistbook (fascist + Facebook)

Facebook is a popular global social networking website. Some people who don’t like Facebook—usually because of censorship—have nicknamed it “Fascistbook” (fascist + Facebook), and this nickname has been printed on many images.
 
“Fascistbook: http://tinyurl.com/2cmxra” was posted on Twitter by Luciano F on November 1, 2007. “#fascistbook” was posted on Twitter by Cumquat cumquat on September 9, 2009. “Fascistbook Silences Dissent” was posted on Facebook on August 16, 2018.

FB = #FascistBook! Let go MY demographics! Let ME determine how ~I~ want to be called. Loose that iron fist! Or, in the end, lose all.
