CitizenVectron Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 "I heard those Spanish don't like racism. Racism is one of the platforms of the Republicans, so we can't publicly oppose that," Zuckerberg was heard to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodporne Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I've had my FB account deactivated, not deleted, for several years now and I logged back in to download pictures and fully delete it over the weekend. What a fucking mess my wall was, it just reinforced how much I disliked the whole concept. When it's not idiotic political nonsense I don't care about, it's just everyone complaining or posting something legitimately cool nobody interacts with anyway. What a shitshow all in all and I still have a couple friends where I wish I wouldn't have seen a certain side of them and lived in blissful ignorance instead and remained friends.

MarSolo Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I wish I could figure out hashtags so more people could see my art. It drives me nuts that I’ll post something, it’s get one or two likes on Instagram, but then gets 86 likes on Facebook. I want to sell my art dammit, and I don’t want it on a right wing hell hole like Facebook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a shitshow all in all and I still have a couple friends where I wish I wouldn't have seen a certain side of them and lived in blissful ignorance instead and remained friends. The only time I ever dabbled I'm actually using Facebook, I briefly reconnected with people I hadn't spoken to in years, I used it to test out jokes that I was working on in my brief foray into stand up (to "mixed" success, let's say. Stand up is really hard and you have to work a lot at it), and within a couple months I had ruined relationships with like half of my family and learned a lot about how shitty people really are. I'd rather live in blissful ignorance. 5 hours ago, osxmatt said: "Politically neutral" is just right-wing by a different name. Reality has a liberal bias.

Just imagine someone searching for the term and then your shit will come up. That way you can search for content without having to know the user. I use them to search for comments about the trashy reality TV I watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kal-El814 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Ignoring the fact that this is about Meghan for a second, I think it’s worth acknowledging that so many online hate campaigns on social media platforms are orchestrated by a handful / small pool of accounts and signal boosted to a ridiculous degree as a blood sacrifice on the altar of engagement. The fact that such a small number of users hold the keys to driving an outsized impact on online discourse is really troubling. These platforms know what these accounts are and what they’re doing and elect to simply not respond or react in the overwhelming majority of circumstances..

These platforms know what these accounts are and what they’re doing and elect to simply not respond or react in the overwhelming majority of circumstances.. As I said before. Twitter will only ban these accounts if it turns into bad press. That's only because Twitter isn't as financially strong as Facebook. Facebook, being loath to actually banning people, will usually just ignore these stories. Right now, nobody is really talking about how some 65% of COVID-19 misinformation is generated by a literally dozen people. Facebook never banned those people and they've continued to generate more COVID misinformation. Facebook was right. They were able to wait the story out.
