Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) thought she’d try and make a joke about a warning she saw on Facebook, but all she accomplished was humiliating herself in humiliating fashion, according to HuffPost:
“(Facebook warned Greene) in an automated message that she could have been exposed to extremist content, and the irony did not go unnoticed by critics.
“The conspiracy theory-endorsing Georgia Republican, who has previously claimed Jewish space lasers started wildfires in California and likened House mask mandates to the Holocaust, on Thursday tweeted a screenshot of the note.”
I have to say I sure am glad that Facebook cares about me like this.
I’m going to have to ask them to protect me bc I’ve been exposed to the radical Democrat’s bills this week which certainly is extremist content. pic.twitter.com/4Cg5PJOW7h

Wow! Talk about a complete lack of self-awareness. This is the same Rep. Greene who defended domestic terrorists who attacked the U.S Capitol on January 6, remarking as recently as May:
“The people that breached the Capitol on Jan. 6 are being abused.”
Greene has also been vehemently opposed to the creation of a House committee to examine look at what transpired on that fateful day at the Capitol which resulted in the deaths of five people, including a member of the Capitol Police Force.
It didn’t take long before others on Twitter pointed out to Greene that she had just owned herself big time:
Facebook needs to learn that some people ARE the harmful extremist content.

Sweetheart…
That’s just your own reflection in the mirror … don’t worry!— alex (@alex57408383) July 2, 2021
For an encore, maybe MTG will explain to all of us how it’s patriotic to call for overturning an election just because your candidate lost.
