To explain to me how I can embed a video from Facebook on Kinja. I've tried all the HTML-fu I know and nothing seems to be working. Anyone find a way to do this yet? Here's my current background for the help!

2. on the kinja editor, click "html" button
3. paste the embed code

No luck with Facebook posts... they use Javascript instead of pure HTML and Kinja won't take it.

Hmmmm alright. I suppose that video will just have to stay a mystery then.

I don't think you can take embedded video from facebook off. Why would they want you being social with their social media on some other site. Best advice share on the oppo fb page.

Strange, I paste the share link, get the Kinja blue thinking dots of despair (Will it work, and what exactly will it do?) and that's it...

It is probably just that Kinja is such a damn flake-fest of absurd work arounds to other problems the Kinja creators created... that anything working is a fluke of some sort and they just just pretend it's a feature...
Dev 1 "Hey, who created this comments system? "
Dev 2 "What comment system?"
Dev 1 "This one, it's sort of neat"
Dev 2 "Oh, eh... It just sort of manifested itself when we were trying to write our own API for logins, and we were to afraid to debug..."
Dev 1 "So this is the authentication protocol"
Dev 2 "Yep, but on the bright side, we have a comments system now!"
Dev 1 "Hm, so what else does it do?"
Dev 2 "We aren't sure, and no one is willing to risk breaking the comments, login, email database and spell check to test it out..."
