[Lnc-business] Recent LP Facebook post - Our Continued Social Media Blunders

[Alicia Mattson]

I agree with Scott that it should be removed not just from the timeline,
but from the entire Facebook account.

I am willing to join with others under policy 2.06.5 to say this image
remaining in our account in any publicly accessible way is detrimental to
the image of the Party.

The Streisand effect can happen if we try to make other people remove
things from accounts that they control, but we control our own Facebook
account.  Nobody is saying we should sue IPR to make them remove it.  We're
saying that the LP should stop contributing to its propagation.  And why
would it not allegedly cause the Streisand effect to remove it from the
timeline, but it might to remove it from our other listing of graphics?
That makes no sense to me.
