Well who'd have thunk it? FaceBook, that vile warren of hookup pages where complete strangers "poke" each other incessantly, has finally got ONE thing right....they're ERADICATING DRAG QUEENS!
The filthy, feral performers are being dragged from the safety of cover into the CLEAR LIGHT OF DAY, where all will now know their REAL NAMES!
And I, for one, say AMEN TO THAT!
It's time to know who we're dealing with!
Facebook rebuffs drag queens on name policy
San Francisco drag queens met with Facebook executives Wednesday but no changes were made to the social media company's policy on using real names.
The meeting came as a war of words has intensified over the social media service's policy on using real names instead of stage names on Facebook pages.
The policy not only affects performers but others who use stage names, like drag queens, who are up in arms because in recent days they were locked out of their accounts. In order for the users to gain access to their accounts, they must provide their real names for identification.
By Monday, a protest scheduled for Facebook's Menlo Park campus had been postponed after gay San Francisco Supervisor David Campos arranged a meeting with company executives and drag queens Sister Roma, whose real name is Michael Williams, and Heklina, whose real name is Stefan Grygelko.
Campos said he, the drag queens, and others who met with Facebook staff were "hopeful we would be able to get" an acknowledgment from Facebook that its policy "was wrong and misguided."
"We're not going away until this issue is resolved," he said.
PRAY for FaceBook as it eradicates DRAG QUEENS ! ! !
