..Mark Zukerberg owns 24 percent of Facebook..Explain why he is an asshole

[Stuart G]

for all to see and pass on... please keep it simple and short so we can pass it on to as many as possible

We must be clear, specific and short and we pass it on. It can be destroyed, but why we do so needs to be simple and easy for all to understand. If Facebook destroyed the 2016 election, and gave it to Trump, then let us know. Facebook is not a required tool for the internet. There are alternatives. Facebook can be destroyed, and people know why it needs to be done.

1. We need to do something concerning Facebook

[Stuart G]

2. Why?

[50 Shades Of Blue]

3. I use AdBlock and Ghostery on FB. I never see any FB ads and FB can't track me.

[Stuart G]

4. So am I correct that FB tracks everyone?..By doing so what does FB accomplish?

[50 Shades Of Blue]

7. From what I've read it tracks you everywhere you go online. It uses the info

about sites you visit to tailor ads.

[msongs]

15. if u log out of FB u can delete their cookies. and should. for every site u visit nt

[WhiskeyGrinder]

5. Why is Zuckerberg an asshole? And how are you going to destroy Facebook?

[BigmanPigman]

6. He was refusing to acknowledge and accept

with responsibility the huge role that his company played in allowing a foreign enemy to attack one of our most sacred institutions and democratic process. Due to his actions and in actions before and after the election he has chosen to endanger the safety of the country as a whole in order to profit. He is irresponsible and was complicit if not outright deceitful to questions from the initial investigations into the hacked elections.

[Stuart G]

9. Thank You ...this is what we need to pass on..You are saying...."A foreign enemy

used his company to attack our democratic process (small d), our election and as a result this endangered our country as a whole...solely for profit. He has failed to admit any of this...is that correct?

[BigmanPigman]

10. Yes. You said to keep it short.

[kydo]

21. And sometimes even paying in rubles. n/t

[Anon-C]

16. Yep! Nt

[cbreezen]

8. Because, anyone who REALLY knows or has known a techie...

knows how much they hate to be proven wrong.

They shall not be questioned!

[Stuart G]

11. This is not about the techie person...It is about a company that tried to destroy

our country's election..I am trying to get the argument simple and clear...so we can all pass it on.

Pass it on to others. So they can understand...here is an example..............

XYZ company makes a car that is dangerous to drive and causes accidents that kill..Why? the non believer asks?Why should I not buy that car?

........Answer: It has been proven that the suspension system is totally inferior and cannot withstand a crash, even a minor crash kills those inside..

Therefore, if we are going after FB, it must be something clear, simple, easy to pass on, something that Zukerburg cannot refute..or will not refute..

[cbreezen]

12. You know exactly what I'm saying.

I shall not debate you on this. I spent many years with a Dell employee (my deceased husband, Wayne), not to mention his co-workers. These men (no women, except Mary) became our family.

[Initech]

13. Did you see "The Social Network"?

He started a blog when he was at Harvard with the intent of trolling his ex girlfriend. He got sued by two Harvard students because they thought he stole their code. That should be all you need to know!

[Anon-C]

14. Completely subjective opinion...

...but its nefarious and from what I've experienced its been socially destructive.

Lookism
Fear of Missing Out

I see more bigotry, more hate, greater divisiveness, and Facebook helps make that possible.

Honestly ask yourself: Is FB a wall or a bridge?

[pnwmom]

18. FB has been a bridge for me. Living in Seattle, I know virtually no Trump voters.

(Seattle had more votes for Jill than for the Donald.) But on FB I talk to friends and relatives all over the country, and some of their friends, too. And I try to engage them in meaningful conversations when I can.

And this Bernie Sanders organizer says he found trolls all over social media, that Facebook is just the tip of the iceberg.

[Anon-C]

19. I see your point, and it can be a bridge or at least a door...

...but in the age of the Private Group I believe it architects "group think" into something worse, since its opaque to the "other" .

And my opinion is that's where racism and hate are scurrying to for survival, and they've found dark damp places like FB to grow like mold.

[pnwmom]

20. Ever since the internet began, there have been dark corners. That's why it's delusional

to think we can solve the problem simply by boycotting FB.

The trolls are all over social media, and dumping propaganda into all the search engines. If we close one door they'll walk through another.

[pnwmom]

17. Anyone who uses Google or any other search engine is kidding themselves

if they think FB is the only problem. Google is filled with fake news and disinformation that often jump to the head of the line. They've just begun to figure out what to do about it.

And, besides Facebook, all the other social media is also involved.

From a Bernie Sanders organizer who figured this out a long time ago:

https://www.nbcsandiego.com/on-air/as-seen-on/Bernie-Sanders-HIllary-Clinton-Social-Media-Russian-Infiltration-Campaign-474369533.html

Mattes said Friday's indictment is just the tip of the iceberg.

”What this indictment does not address, is the bots on Reddit, the bots that worked on Twitter, on Tumbler. There wasn’t a social media platform the Russians didn’t infiltrate," he proclaimed.
