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.
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.
FB was always pushing russian back propaganda since 2016, alot of boomers and gen-xers use it, and millneals
