I'm sure such scale requires heavy moderation. It pains me to realize the cost of enjoying the benefits of social media - if any, at all - that it makes me wonder whether we should have it in the first place at all.
I can imagine a world without Facebook.
- overthemoon 7y agoThis is what I keep coming back to. I don't think Facebook is worth it. I would personally extend this to most, if not all, social media.
- aeorgnoieang 7y agoIt's sad to realize that the world is worse than we previously thought, but it's not obviously worse overall. Not having social media, or anything similar, and thus not having to moderate awful content, wouldn't (necessarily) cause all of the terrible behavior depicted in that content to not happen. People can be awful. So can other organisms (independent of whether they're evil or just immoral). Not facing that fact, at all, isn't obviously best.
