The comparison is unfair. The two minute hate was for promoting group-think and outing free-thinkers, whereas the hatred for Facebook comes from actual grievances. Companies like Facebook are everything that's wrong with the world, and people know this deep down which is where all the hatred is coming from. They divide, promote hatred and silo thinking, promote breadth in place of depth, cause depression, I could go on for a while here. Imagine if they disappeared overnight. All the small players could have a go again. Yes in time we'd have the same issues that acquisition and shutdowns bring, as one company grows bigger than the others, but at least for a while we could breath and innovate again.
