It is a good thing.
Haha I think so too but Lemmy won’t agree. :)
Regulating Meta which is truly accountable nowhere is like trying to find a good place to store radioactive waste for tens of thousands of years. Everyone outside the US should just ban them.
Get out of here with your pro-oil propaganda.
Are you drunk? Solar and wind is better now and eventually fusion will be.
I see incredibly violent and bigoted content all the time on Meta platforms and always report it. Rarely does anything get taken down. But feminism bad I suppose.
feminism is a contradiction to toxic manosphere thats why, and meta needs a conservative voting base to stay alive.
That was last week
Once again, Zuck the suck.
The CIA via its VC fund InQTel is the architect of today’s information landscape. All of this is very much on purpose.
what did you read to learn this? i wanna read it too
It’s the same company behind the Pokémon Go app that was actually a cover by the CIA to map entire places around the world.
The fact that these morons are destroying the world with impunity, openly, and no one is even attempting to regulate it is the wildest part of this timeline. They’ve brainwashed how many countries now? And people are just watching and waiting to be picked off.
People realise they can just stop viewing social feeds and the quality of life either doesn’t change or sometimes improves?
No they don’t unfortunately. Social media and any other institution only has as much power as we give it. For some reasons people just can’t quit social media even while they actively protest it.
“After reaching out to Meta about why the promo campaign had been stomped out, the company replied that “any mention of civil rights, feminism or social reform are usually classified as ‘social topics’ by our automatic system,” and therefore rejected.”
Wow.
not that i’m a meta fan, I fucking hate that company, but this swings both ways. Imagine your local coffee shop is boosting posts about traditional marriage and pro-life themes. They get blocked as well.
I just don’t go to that coffee shop. Problem solved. They can say whatever they want. If I don’t support it I don’t go. I don’t see how the coffee shop argument hold up. And if enough people hold the same views they close.
Meta however is too big to fail. Which gives them a free pass to pass their cancerous views onto society while knowing no matter how much the general public hates them and their shitty views they will continue to use the platform because their friends and family still use it. Enshittification. If my coffee shop enshittifies I tell them to pound sand.
There’s no way to get around “any mention of civil rights” though. That covers all humans.
Maybe. This was an advertisement for a book that had those themes.
Personally, I don’t want either to be excluded.
God forbid you talk about social topics on SOCIAL media…
Sounds like you need some reeducation.
When I read the first 4 words I had a hope…
Fuck zuck. Of course a pathetic man like him would fight feminism as soon as he felt comfortable doing so
Lol. Feminism should be the standard. Everything else is simply sexism.
This is the problem with social media. Outrage drives clicks, so “feminism” is portrayed as a caricature of brightly died hair, “ugly” women, feeble men, and the stereotype of unemployed art students.
It’s exactly what we were warned about in books like 1984 and animal farm. The media controls thoughts, who controls the media?
Nah. It’s more that feminism started as equal rights, which everyone agrees with. But now it’s a hostile movement that doesn’t respect men and masculinity at all. Anyone can see that but they think it’s OK. Who needs masculinity anymore right? :)
So would promoting a play about how great capitalism is get filtered out I wonder?
I’m fortunate to be of the age where I’ve grown out of Facebook so never bothered to setup Instagram.
Moving on from WhatsApp is hard though 😡
Use Signal instead.
I forced my family and all my friends onto it many many years ago. Fuck Zuck.
Did you know, if you use uBlock origin, you can add these to your “My Filters” custom filter list:
||facebook.com^ ||instagram.com^And you’ll never accidentally surf to one of those again?
Sadly some restaurants use Facebook for their menu or specials…
What kind of Feminism?
A Virginia Woolf play
it’s very easy to find out by reading the article you decided to comment on
facebook has become such a sinister platform. i’ve witnessed several members of my family become radicalized by their algorithms pushing conspiratorial rhetoric. the worst part? they refuse to use anything else. there’s just something about facebook that has them convinced it’s reputable.
FB was always pushing russian back propaganda since 2016, alot of boomers and gen-xers use it, and millneals
It creates the illusion of socializing while using the Fox News formula of alternating between titillation and fear. That and youtube idiots and podcast bros have ruined so many people’s lives.
