"No, not like that! It was only supposed to happen to brown people!"

(And the gays, transsexuals, liberals, artists and other degenerate dissidents like that)

What they abhor is their chickens coming home to roost.

Sure, but I don't see why I should give him what he wants -- I take pride in being nothing like him.

At the every least he would have wanted is to have shown him and. His family he left behind zero empathy because empathy is a made up term.

I don't think anyone is the least bit surprised. But it should still be pointed out, not accepted as them being normal. Yes, it's normal for them, and of course they have zero shame about it. But it's not normal for most human beings.

Pretty sure the answer here is "don't use Facebook."

If you absolutely must use Facebook anonymously here's a Reddit comment that is more likely to work than using Tor/VPN for setup. However you'd also need to not friend anyone you know... Definitely curious what your use case is.

I recently tried this. My finding was not to use all those anonymizing techniques. I tried them and had the exact same result as you. Then I tried the following: look as "normal" to the Facebook algorithms as possible. So, I found a cafe that used a regular residential style internet service provider, instead of some place like Starbucks or McDonald's which use commercial providers tailored for corporate use. Then I used an old smart phone I had and factory restored it on the cafe wifi. When installing and setting up Android I was able to get a gmail account much easier than getting one from my desktop PC - no request for phone number, etc. Then I made up a profile using fake info. I grabbed a photo online and modified it to remove any watermarks and changed it with a filter. I checked it against Tineye to make sure it wasn't available anywhere else. Then I downloaded the Facebook app on the phone and signed up for an account while connected to the cafe WiFi. You could use phone service provided internet, but I only registered for a non-data prepaid phone plan to save on cost. It was straight forward and I just verified the account through the phone (i.e. sms). The account was setup without any of the "warnings" and then I added a few details to the account (i.e. current location, hometown, education, etc.). I did a bit of searching for other users, nothing too extreme and then let the account age for a few days before using it regularly. I use it regularly now through a VPN and used it for an Instagram account as well. The key was looking as "normal" to Facebook as possible. I never use it from my home WiFi because I figure it'll just connect the two IP addresses somewhere in their databases. This was really just an experiment, more than anything. I don't use Facebook, but wanted an account for the odd time I needed to search Facebook for someone. My conclusion was that Facebook, Instagram, gmail, Snapchat, etc. are much more "lenient" when signing up for an account from a phone/Android then from a PC w/Windows/Linux/MacOS. Hope it helps.
