Need help for Andy Nicholson, TBI warrior BLOCKED by Facebook

Hi all,

I'm 17 years post TBI which left me isolated & confused here in Switzerland, where I live

Seeing the Brain Damaged Baron aka Andy Nicholson's 1st film made me cry with happiness that I was not alone.

I believe Andy has helped thousands of people around the world living with TBI, epilepsy, sleep difficulties, vision loss and many other issues.

Facebook has repeatedly blocked Andy so that he can no longer post films. I've started a petition which is doing great - 770/odd posts in a week & a day!

If you have seen Andy's posts & would like to help, please sign the petition below:

Hi

Just over a week ago bexx87 made us aware of this in her post "naughty Facebook" and many of us have signed the petition in the link she gave.

I have a UK friend in France who earns a living by being a moderator for a social media website, FB or not I don't know- but she is able to remove or block content - so its down to the various employees!

I will of course sign the petition but it needs to grab Zuckerberg's? attention for any chance of success as well! So good luck.

Interesting to know - been discussing w various people whether it's a mechanical thing or whether real people decide!

I FB messaged Zuckerberg but of course he hasn't read the message. Think I'd better keep making a nuisance of myself!!

Thanks for the info!

Hi jojo,

I have already signed the petition but I just wanted to say how disgusting I think it is to be taking away things that clearly help people.

I am more into holistic medicine and conspiracy theories now and do not take a lot of note to mainstream media as they are full of lies but I am aware of how 'they' want to close down on certain parts of the internet and taking away helpful information from others.

As Hippocrates once said "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food".

Thank you Matt2584!

Unfortunately I was misdiagnosed, made to work & went down the meds route... think I'm stuck on it for now as I had a seizure due to the pressure of work.

I and obviously Andy want the truth to be out there about what brain injury actually DOES, there is such ignorance 💚💚💚
