Fake news is just a nicer word for propaganda. Maybe what we saw happen on Facebook was a reflection of our society and the US political system? Even if Facebook changes something, 4 years from now we are still facing a 2-party oligarchy with a strong grip on control. I had hopes for a better 3rd party showing with all of the negative campaigning, but it turns out that America can't get enough of the major party candidates. It's like a reality TV show played out on social media. Life imitating art? I deleted (vs deactivated) my personal facebook account in the run-up to the election. The cost/benefit math wasn't worth it anymore. Too much wasted time and energy with little room for critical thinking or diversity of opinions. I doubt I'll rejoin anytime in the foreseeable future. No judgement to folks who are still on it, it's just not for me. I feel much less anxious and more at peace without facebook than I ever did with it. I'm encouraged to make more time for face-to-face and phone conversations. If someday I am responsible for marketing or customer service, I would consider using facebook for business purposes to communicate with customers. But I'd let someone else manage it who enjoys social media. I am left wondering if facebook just had its myspace moment? Was that peak facebook? If so, what's next in line?
