Exactly.

Okay, now do religion.

I'm actively working on moving on from Facebook. The amount of false information on the platform is just astounding and when you report the lies, you just get a response saying it doesn't break any rules. Not even talking politics here, there was deceptive AI post about two top tennis players, that I reported.

Why is the leftist approach is to platform the opposition while the rights approach is to overwhelm the space until it does what they want?

Which approach do you think is working and which one do you think is failing?

facebook= propaganda arm of russia in the US for boomers, and a site filled with bots.

It’s time for Pixelfed!

I asked that before it started.

Here we are.

Big tech has gone full fascist for a bit now

FB has been normally Right wing propaganda arm for ru, for like a decade. i think they might have ramped it up. plus AI bots are probably running the site anyways.

She's not very progressive if she uses Facebook.

Always has been.

Remove yourself from algo driven sites, set up an rss reader and hand pick your media, subcribe to newsletters of trustworthy media sites, delete useless apps from your phone or better jailbreak it and install graphene, get an e-reader secondhand and start reading etc etc.

This is how everything works under capitalism.

Meta is actively pursuing government contracts for uses of its supercomputer it's putting online next year and it's AI investments. They are becoming a defense contractor essentially. To acquire contracts during this regime, I'm sure they will give any backdoor and facial recognition assistance the Pentagon asks for.

Being redundant to say this. People are actively posting pictures of themselves, their families, and their locations continuously and sending them to a government defense contractor. Posting their activities, hobbies, who they interact with, their food, et cetera.

If news companies cared about people's privacy, they would be broadcasting that on every network warning the population in my opinion. But that would piss off the U.S. government, and they don't want that.

Facebook is a privately owned company that is responsible for their own actions.

Continue to not use Facebook/Instagram.

I switched to Lemmy when Reddit came out in support of people who abuse children. I don't even mean Trump, I just mean in general. I suggested abusers in general should face harsher penalties. They banned me for it. I said "holy shit you just did me a huge favor, apparently I was on the wrong site because our values are 100% incompatible."

I mean, there isn't even a debate. I'm not talking about people who find themselves attracted to kids. I'm talking about people who actually went out and hurt a real child facing longer, more meaningful sentences and they said nah, those people are people and need to be protected.

I've moved social networks on account of incompatible values and I think others will, too. Maybe not the majority but I think some others will. Especially as things get worse. There are networks for people who hate (like Truth Social), and networks for people who don't care (like Facebook/Insta/Whatsapp), but I think as things change, more people will care and will look elsewhere. Not everyone but some people.

Those who use Instagram will keep using it and forget all about this within 24 hours.

I already don't use Instagram so not really much more I can do but I guess it doesn't impact me because of that

Why do you ask?

Move to mastodon and lemmy
