In 2014, SWAG77 decided to pursue taking a Star Wars Legends character, Thrawn and adding him back to Disney canon in Star Wars Rebels.
Today, Facebook attempted to destroy our Thrawn advocacy by restricting the posting on the Facebook page account from other verified social media sources. Calling what we were posting as “spam”.
Spam sells fake items. All items we sell are Thrawn books from Amazon. Their definitions of upgrading their code is destructive.
These activities are normal for Facebook. Content restriction and content censorship by Facebook. None of this work condemns any party to hurt anyone. Discussing classic fine art, classical music and fan art promotion and fanfic writing in Star Wars are fan activities that Disney should fully support. But there are some individuals that hate those activities and want nothing but to harm fans who are excited about our content. For whatever reasons these fans have, they are not about the values promulgated by Disney, Lucasfilm or Star Wars.
SWAG77 paid a high price for our activities on Facebook. For Facebook to do this to us shows that they support hate and bigotry. That is how we see their latest action. They hate POCs, they hate Star Wars, they hate fine art, they hate fan art, they hate fan writing and they hate books.
The ONLY way to rectify this cause, is to give a verified sign on all SWAG77 pages as listed. Anything less is the promotion of hate.
There are over 500 pages on Facebook that belong to the Star Wars Actors Guild 77 (SWAG77), many of them harmonized with other sites to share the latest Star Wars information and perspectives on any given topic. Then there are performances.

There are over 500 pages on Facebook that belong to the Star Wars Actors Guild 77 (SWAG77), many of them harmonized with other sites to share the latest Star Wars information and perspectives on any given topic. Then there are performances.
When Facebook decides to change its code, it interprets the old code as malware or code that is malicious and starts to attack honest users. Immediate restrictions are placed on content management. These restrictions are based on reports made by illicit users or businesses that wish to capitalize on the advancement any one page has made.
It’s been done to us before. That’s why we know. We are doing activities that will stop the cruel behavior and a security measure.
Please understand, if you are a duplicate account (a mutual) that SWAG77 already has in its database and you have not submitted any forms to us, or joined any of our groups, you will be banned from all our pages. We have to protect our business.
All our Facebook pages are in our directory: https://www.facebook.com/SWAGNAV/ and are earmarked as SWAG77 pages in the Impressum of the ABOUT section.
Our forms to join involve a vetting for our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1stSWAG77steps/
But when fandom calls, we are eager to help anyway we can.
A fan artist created a great image of a lead character in Star Wars. We just felt that a few people at Lucasfilm should know about it and see it. So we shared it with our one contact with no promises.
Let’s hope the fan artist appreciates it. It’s the best thing to do in fandom. At least to us.
