Re: Face book is down

Facebook also regularly recommends violent groups to people it thinks might join them. People who start out as everyday hotheads or genuinely aggrieved or disadvantaged individuals or socially isolated teens are funneled into a rabbithole that some never get out of.

All kinds of extremism all across the board. It's a huge problem but Facebook just considers it everyday business to gain people's interest and loyalty to their site.

When Facebook first started I remember there were strict rules about certain kinds of content. It was supposed to be a wholesome environment. Those rules might still exist on paper, but they do not seem to be applied in many cases.

When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.

I like FB. I discovered tons of cousins in Sweden that I didn't know existed and they helped me with a family tree. I also met up with several classmates and we all keep in touch.

@Mersha Glad none of us in the 60's in So. Cal. knew about them. I actually never heard of them until I was an adult and thought they were cruel and a form of bullying.

What kind of kids used these anyway? Never mind, I know the answer.

@SeaMaiden Thanks for the info! Thought it was just my computer. I'm getting notifications from Microsoft Edge about updates. Very odd.

I don't care about Facebook, but I kind of miss Instagram.

@goldensrbest Exactly. Not a dang thing. I think some people just want to inject this story wherever possible.

I love FB. I can keep in touch with friends and family all over the World and block people I don't wish to talk to. Many times I wish it was possible to block certain Topics here. I find myself trying to delete here but then I have to remind myself that it's not FB. How I wish.

I love FB Marketplace and it's one of my favorites.

When something here does not work some people get so upset. Get IT on it get IT on it. lol

Guess those are the ones who dislike FB.
