Wow this is such a bad faith attempt at exonerating Facebook that I don't know where to even start.
No the issue isn't language, the issue is Facebook way of pushing outrage-inducing content and isolating people in bubbles of ever more radicalized content. Spend some time on https://www.reddit.com/r/QAnonCasualties/ https://www.reddit.com/r/QAnonCasualties/ and come back tell us how the problem is "language" and not social medias.
- labster 5y agoBut without language, how could they communicate these harmful ideas? People use language to spread hate speech. Even the code base of Facebook is written in a language. This is why we need a doubleplusgood conlang alternative like Newspeak! We can then unfollow crimethink terrorinfo and hatespeak. Facebook is just a plusvictim here of enemy agitprop.
- kazinator 5y agoFacebook is so harmlessly impotent, it has not even managed to get me to create an account. You know, maybe spend less time on QAnon-anything.
- RealityVoid 5y agoThe fact it is impotent for you does not mean it is impotent in general. That is my exact point. I have hardly any problem with FB usage, but I see many people dear to me that do. I imagined that this is a problem that will go by itself. That people will inoculate themselves against conspiracy. But now, I'm not so sure.
- AniseAbyss 5y agoMaybe it's not Facebook. Maybe it's society that makes people go crazy? Humans are not fit to live in a hyper capitalist society. We crave stability.
