>society will be forced to shift in a more liberal direction and stop judging people
Really? This hasn't been my experience at all. FB can be just as toxic as e.g. a youtube comment section, and what I see more often than not is people self selecting based on who agrees with them nearly 100% of the time.
- space_fountain 9y agoOps point seems to be exactly that that is the most likely outcome rather than the nicer sounding alternative.
- EpicEng 9y agoSure, I didn't mean to imply that OP was buying into it, I'm just a bit shocked that _anyone_ believes that.
- whatshisface 9y agoRight, but the theory (which I'm arguing against, see above), is that if economic rewards are grafted on to the social side then people will become more open so that they can become more economically successful. Youtube comments and today's FB aren't economic - there are few incentives against bubbling yourself beyond personal gratification.
- EpicEng 9y agoSorry, poor wording on my part. I didn't mean to imply you were supporting that theory, I had never heard it before and was just shocked that _anyone_ believes it.
