Facebook: Why So Evil?

[Batty]

What if you plan on murdering only one person?

Bollocks. Anyone who understands history will note that society has forever been 'going down the crapper'.

Ask the black man what he thought about life in the '50s. Ask the woman who expected to be taken seriously in her chosen profession what she thought about it.

There are over 6 billion people on this planet, and the more complex and sophisticated a society becomes, the more challenged will be its traditions and interactions.

All this talk about conspiracies just shows how privileged some people can be. I've lived in a real autocracy and I know exactly what that looks like. People waxing lyrical about the threat to privacy and rights in modern, Western democracies

Yeah, "the good old days". No such thing. No matter what the year, you're gonna find crap.

 

[The Ween]

Food for thought. If you're planning on murdering a ton of people, don't put that **** on Facebook.

Seems most post pics after the fact.

More like businesses just keep raising the prices till people can't pay it anymore. Businesses kept up with cost of living raises. Now, we don't get cost of living raises but they'll keep raising the prices as long as the majority of people buy it.

Gas is a good example. Used to be if gas got high, people cut back or bought smaller cars. Not anymore because people would rather have the nice big truck than have money in the bank.

no,it has to do with a de-valued currency...when they print paper money and create money through debt like there is no tommorrow, it causes inflation

the reason why we are paying higher prices for gas because the dollar has lost its purchasing power....in 1964,two Silver dimes (20 cents face value) bought you a gallon of GAS, TODAY those two same Silver dimes (20 cents) will buy you a gallon of Gas..

So what has lost its value??? The Dollar (which is now backed by NOTHING) has lost its purchasing power

This is a tremendous period in history to be alive. Instant, immediate global communication. And all some people can do with that is boogie-boogie about how it's leading us into a police state

That's where Skype comes in. Or snapchat.

I edited my post. But Google is what we should all really be afraid of. Google is what scares me sometimes.

Sounds to me like you should save your more risque searches for some other engine.

**** Facebook- deleted it years ago. Don't need it, don't want it. And I'm certainly fine without it.

I don't think it's a personal beef so much as them identifying themselves as part of the crowd that doesn't want to get involved with the usually pointless things society obsesses over. I was like that until 2010. Got a Facebook to petition Hot Toys to include the falcon accessory with their Falconer Predator. Since then, it's been so much easier to plan hangouts and events with friends.

All from one failed click, Lol!

Seriously though, how do so many people just decide to get up and go to another country uninvited? the voices told me!

Whatever stigma surrounds social networking, you can't argue with the fact that almost everybody does it (including people worth being in touch with) and if you want to stay connected you'll have to do the same.


Just delete those friends or hide their statuses. Simple.

Humanity has become very sad because of it. Plus, one time what happened on Facebook/Internet stayed there. Now, even on tv guides and tv packages, Internet crap makes it onto your tv. Granted you don't have to watch it, but nevertheless, all the dross is coming through to everything that you can hardly get away from it now. Even how people talk to each other on the streets now.

How can such a social tool, make people so anti social. There's so much hostility now with people because of all their years on Facebook. Facebook has made so many people become a very rude, attention seeking, intolerant society.

I keep hearing parents talking about how their sons and daughters are always on Facebook that they can't even talk at dinner. As if things are so crucial that they can't miss a thing as if they were controlling a nuclear power station. Even some adults are just as bad.

Not that I do it with a lot of people, but I find that hiding their status is the easiest way. Although I do wish some people were more self aware of what they were doing on FB. Unless they're there with you, most people don't care what kind of meal you just had.

Or about to eat. I can't stand people that post every meal they have prepared for dinner.

GTFOMS! Get the fook off my screen.

well, some boardies are turning this toy forum into effin facebook. lolz

Watch carefully. Every forum has become like this. The world and forums or anything, Facebook us, tweet in your comments, tweet us what you think! Tweets/Facebook us your pictures. News programmes and so on. The world is full of fooking trivia more than ever and every nut has a platform to voice their views.

Just use it when you need it. You don't have to read anyone's crap. I mostly use it to quickly contact people who don't live around here any more.

It's rather hard to when you listen to radio stations and such, Facebook discussions on News channels, this crap is everywhere even on intelligent stuff.

True.

those New Video Games systems (XBOX especially) coming out are a total control Grids for its users....for the unit to work,you must be online at all times and it has voice recognition to play among other things..

Soon Video Games will be download only, with no actually physical game disc making the user to have to be online to play video games.

but nobody cares

Yet they are pre-ordering like the world was going to end tomorrow.

I have an account but since I don't have a lot of friends (I think I'm at like 50 which by facebook standards means I live under a rock) my feed isn't too filled with annoying stuff so its not that bad. I keep it because its a handy way to get in touch with some good old friends and see what they are up to time to time but its not something I obsess over.

Heh, it's better than having hundreds of friends you don't know. Sad statistic nuts.

Society as a whole has declined rapidly and is only getting worse. I could go on and on about what was and what is today, but most just poo poo it off.

You can say that again.

I agree, society has gone down the crapper. And facebook isnt helping. Especially for kids. They need to get out and play, see the sun, instead of sitting on their phones and computers facebooking!

Teenagers committing suicide from Facebook/Twitter/Internet bullying.

Go to a restaurant and take a look around and what do you see? Most familes not even talking to each other because they all have their faces burried in their cell phones on FB or texting. It's sick.

Exactly!

or go in their homes and see their faces buried in computers posting on toy forums

Lol!

"Big Brother", the government, or whoever else, doesn't need Facebook to keep tabs on someone. Of course, people should use their better judgements on what they decide to post. But, if they're overly paranoid about an unseen force that's out to get them, then I'd think that Facebook isn't the only thing that they'd have a problem with. They should just give up all of their electronics and become Amish

Then you woke up and realised, how messed up it is. Thats why there's so many scams right? more rampant that ever, yes?

I have never actually seen the kind of drama and arguments on facebook that I have seen in here from time to time.
Maybe I am just friends with nice people that get along or I miss the fights. But Facebook can actually be boring in that sense.

Even on the facebook groups, people tend to get along. I've never seen any really big fights or anything.

You'll probably find those same ones are from the Facebook/Twitter culture. Forums used to be such a different place before the Facebook/Twitter boom. I'm talking all forums in general.

Food for thought. If you're planning on murdering a ton of people, don't put that **** on Facebook.

Lol! but the gist is, it's a sharing culture.

Yeah, "the good old days". No such thing. No matter what the year, you're gonna find crap.

The difference was, the crap never made it onto every tv channel/radio and news station back then. Every piece of trivia gets reported today.

That's where Skype comes in. Or snapchat.

Sad when that happens.

So people are stupid. That seems to be the root of the problem and it's been an issue long before Facebook. And like I said in my original post, the friends I have that are worth actually staying in touch with (in other words, friends that aren't complete idiots who post everything they eat or spend every waking moment on their phone) are the reasons why I use the site. Everyone's on it, both the decent and the moronic. That applies to living on this planet in general.

pie porn???????

What I don't like about Facebook is sometimes it makes me feel like my life sucks because all you read about from other people is their highlight reel, all their vacations, their new car, their promotions, etc.
I never talk about even my good experiences so it just seems everyone else is always successful and my life stinks. In actuallity my life is really good, I just don't brag about it.

But this social media stuff is only helping to accelerate it. Including tv. You missed the point how it's always getting coverage in every form.

Somebody told me recently about this. He said "they must have more debt than me". When all the fun and good times are over and once the bills start coming in, whine, whine, whine about problems.
