    I know Facebook and Reddit are in cahoots.

    I went to visit Reddit a couple weeks back to read the Deadpool & Wolverine comments, but used the wrong container tab and now Facebook feeds me endless Marvel related stuff.

    A lot of it is culture war bullshit too. Hmmmmm 🤔

      No, you don’t know anything. Just because you have a suspicion because something happened to you once doesn’t mean you are sure in any way.

        Nah I’m sure.

        I never once saw a post about Marvel fed to me by Facebook and now it’s constant

          Did it start after the extremely popular marvel movie “Deadpool and Wolverine” released?

            Lol that’s your argument for why you think they don’t know what they’re talking about? Because all you did is make yourself seem like you have no idea how cookies work 🤣

              It’s just one single person who noticed something once.

              That’s an awful awful sample size absolutely filled with bias and thought fallacies.

            Before. “Couple weeks” is more like 5 months at this point now that I think about it.

            I don’t mind some of it much, but the obvious culture-war bait is infuriating.

            It’s not because the movie just came out. I’ve been diligent about keeping Facebook and Reddit in their container tabs for years. It’s just Marvel stuff, not just the movies. Marvel’s been putting out huge movies for years and this hasn’t happened around any of their other releases.

              Why aren’t you just using the official automatic Facebook container?
