I don't really remember a time where FB was better other than I do remember it not being riddled with ads and money making schemes.
Zuckerburg was a ruthless bastard and it was always all about the money (or future monies). Not that the guys he screwed over were much better, but from the very outset Zuckerburg was unscrupulous. Comparing images of women to other women. Rating someone's attractiveness based on a picture he likely stole.
But complaining about how it went down or how it could have been different isn't really worth it, is it? This is how it is and people are so addicted to social media it makes addiction to drugs and alcohol look less harmful to society.

I loathe Twitter...all social media really....only been checking Twitter for news on the war.
I almost fell out of my chair when I saw this today....
The (former) CEO of Twitter
https://www.twitter.com/jack/status/1510314535671922689
These types rarely make such admissions.
They turned the internet into a monster. Young people of today don't understand how amazing (and different) the internet was back in the 90s. It was not meant to be what it eventually became.
Is it even fixable?
His tweet reminded me of those few big tech honchos years ago admitting how awful social media really is and they wouldn't allow their own children to use it.
This isn't unique to the internet.
Corporations own this country and that's the end of it. Look where we are right now...corporations are recording record profits but the average person is convinced the economy is 'bad.'
This is exactly how it was designed.

I’ll be just like our hero Kyle Rittenhouse if i did….what a hero.

No one ever says anything in here even remotely insightful…mostly bitching and complaining.

Over $4 a gallon for gas where I live. If they honestly believe they can blame this all on Putin the midterms are going to be a bloodbath.
Awww gas got ya down? Maybe you should go to Ukraine

I still think Kyle Rittenhouse will save us from the Russians with all his law suits against the media and illegally obtained guns.

Isn’t it so much fun?
Seriously mate what’s the point of your post or in fact most of your posts nowadays?
You have long since given up engaging in any intelligent thought out discussion anymore.
All you do is niggle and goad and stir. You are more intent on stirring shit and yelling white simply because someone else says black. I don’t understand it.
You need to take a few deep breathes and a step back, it can’t be healthy dude!
That’s what politics are now…especially if you’re a Trump supporter

Better than 44 Democrats filibustering sanctions on Russia just a few weeks ago. I'm sure your concern and objectivity won't be impaired.
3/213 vs 44/50
Oooo more Fox News…love being lectured by someone about objectivity and posts a Fox News article.
I’m sure you get a real fair and Umbiased view from a network that allows trump to suck Putins dick live on air.
Oh wait…you’ll man’splain why that’s not what he did/does.
