  “If we can’t get money from targeted far-right fake news anymore, we are going to pretend an achievement of basic social equality from a century ago is now a controversial opinion too”

  Meta, probably.

  Same Facebook that didn’t ban QAnon for years after 4chan banned it?

    To be fair, 4chan banned them because they were annoying.

      Bullshit. Most of the people on 4chan are annoying. I think that were afraid that QAnon would bring them the kind of trouble that they couldn’t handle.

      4 Chan should ban itself if that were the case

  It’s a fascist site. What did anyone expect?

    Uh go ask all the chuds clamouring for Meta to be part of the Fediverse, they seem to expect it to play out differently here.

    I dunno. I kind of expected a FAANG company to hide it slightly better

  I can’t believe people are dumb enough to still use Facebook.

    It’s not being “dumb enough”, it’s an addiction in the sense that scrolling through, liking posts and posting things gives people a Dopamine high. It’s really no different than a gambling or shopping addiction.

    The site was designed that way. It took hints from the instant gratification that people got from grinding in World of Warcraft and the feeling of being important that MySpace gave everyone. Facebook is nothing but a virtual Skinner Box at this point.

    Only use it for groups, the only place on Facebook where meaningful interaction is still possible
