    Anyone on Facebook deserves to be shit on by sloppy. They also deserve scanned out of all of the money and anything else.

    If you’re on Facebook, you deserve this. Get the hell off Facebook.

      Dude, I sort of agree, but Facebook has wedged itself into every facet of society. I keep a Facebook account for 2 things: The pictures my kids’ daycare/school posts because their school app sucks ass, and getting announcements from my city for events and/or emergency notices like boil orders or something. It’s not as simple as just walking away for large swathes of people without losing important community functionality. More and more people absolutely hate Meta and barely anyone I know actually uses Facebook for anything other than what I mentioned above. But until governments, schools, companies, etc. get the fuck off of it to a better alternative, it’s not going anywhere.

        You’ve made an excellent case and argument for both ditching all traditional, social media, but also that they are all intrinsically shitty and evil.

        If you can’t bring yourself to break away from techno fascism, why should I have any pity for you?

        I am not responsible for your apathy nor your weakness. When you gargle the balls of fascism, don’t be surprised when others come and point out how shitty that is.

      While I agree with your message at a high level (I quit FB several years ago), I don’t think it’s productive to be so abrasive.

      It’s generally better to be respectful and convincing if you want to change minds.

      Edit: itt: brain, dead, and fascist apologist Facebook Earth, who just refuse to accept that their platform is one of the biggest advent of Nazi fascism in this country, and they are all 100% complicit.

      This is some Facebook quality content you’re bringing to us here. It’s so great seeing this kind of posts on my feed first thing in the morning. Shows that it’s not just AI poisoning our social media platforms.
