We as rational humans though, can apply context to such situations and realize that teenagers often say insanely stupid things that they later wish they hadn't (and usually didn't mean).

But Facebook is a monolithic network with full control of its walled garden. It is pretty clear they are not interested and letting us really manage what we posted on its walledgardn. There's no way for me to mass delete/edit posts on facebook.

Delete facebook profile? well it doesn't really delete it: https://www.quora.com/When-you-permanently-delete-your-Facebook-account-what-happens-to-your-information https://www.quora.com/When-you-permanently-delete-your-Faceb...
