AFTER GOING TO MY PARENTS HOUSE.

Im 35 years old, I own a successful business. I was going to go to d.c. on the 6th just like many of you. Apparently someone on social media (which i have deleted a week ago) "reported" that I was going.

I actually did not go and showed them surveillance of me working here. This is no longer a theory, this is a full blown communist takeover. Tell your friends and family to GET OFF SOCIAL MEDIA. We no longer have freedom. We are indeed under attack for our views and its just a matter of time before it gets worse.

I asked the two agents if they investigated the cop letting people into the capitol to which one replied, "there are a lot of investigations" I'm like riiiiight. I will say the female officer was kinda cute tho O_o

I have friends that are in law enforcement and i love them, and my country. Once this initial shock wore off the heart break set in.

Nothing says "friend" like reporting someone you know online. This is absolutely terrifying.

Happened to me once.

I was up for a promotion. A coworker on my FB, screen shotted spicy posts I'd made, and gave them to the senior leadership of my organization.

The promotion was cancelled, and my boss was told by their superiors that "that guys career is done." They couldn't fire me outright (legal reasons) but the writing was on the wall and they were going to make my life at work shit forever more. So after >25 years with the same employer, I left.

Thing is, I was never shown the posts I'd supposedly made that we're so scandalous, they could have been faked screen shots for all I know.

Edit: I was also never officially informed of my accusers identity, though I figured it out through the grapevine eventually. It was not professional competition, it was ideological anger at my right wing humor.

I don't care how far right or left someone's politics are, that is as pathetic and despicable as it gets.
