the "environment" is in fact our society.
you assume the cause is facebook, when in fact facebook is the effect of a sick society.
but, facebook does help in bringing to light our abysmal failure in building society.
- Joeri 6y agoIt is a circle. Society influences facebook, facebook feeds back into society. For example, I’m convinced facebook’s amplification of pro-brexit and pro-trump messages in those campaigns was instrumental in their victory. No facebook, no president trump. I’ve also seen how facebook turned my sister into an anti-vaxxer. In essence you can look at facebook as a platform for information warfare. It tends to amplify lies, and some forces are more able to exploit that.

- hellisothers 6y agoYes. Because what is one voice (even family) vs the 100s of voices and constant reaffirmation of lies and misinformation.
