    Not surprising at all.

    US will remain a chauvinistic plutocracy until Zuckerberg and all his goons are caught and put in ball and chains.

    And that’s just one case, there is also Meta’s enablement of the Rohingya genocide, which is arguably a far more serious crime than systematic enablement of mass scale fraud.

      FACEBOOK has been shoving right wing content to its user for at least a decade or more. why would they stop, and its a big revenue source, plus AI is helping doing that. this is REDDITS FUTURE TOO.

      Fuck that. Zuckerberg and his cronies, plus their families a d anyone even remotely related to them or anyone who shares even 1/10th of their thought processes need the Romanov treatment.

    As if there’s not already more than enough reasons to always have an ad blocker… If you absolutely still need to use Facebook and Instagramto keep in touch with people, there’s browser extensions and patched apps that still block the ads.

    I deleted my Facebook profile last year after 18 years and never looked back. It’s a totally different platform than what I signed up for almost two decades ago. Absolutely zero value for me now.

    I’m so glad Valve is releasing a VR headset so I don’t need to have anything to do with a trash company like Meta.

        Honestly, many friends who live in other towns I stay in touch with using messanger so theoretically I could disable Facebook and keep messenger but Facebook is more for former work colleagues that I occasionally say hi to. It would have been a lot easier if i could just have WhatsApp with timeline and marketplace.
