That's the issue with people's from a certain side of politics, they don't vote for something they always side / vote against something or someone ... Blindly.

That's the issue with people's from a certain side of politics, they don't vote for something they always side / vote against something or someone ... Blindly. It's like pure hate going over reason. But it's ok they are the 'good' ones so they are always right and don't really need to think
- amelius 1y agoSometimes people are just too lazy to read an article. If you just gave one argument in favor of Meta, then perhaps that could have started a useful conversation.

You need some perspective - Meta wouldn't even crack the top 100 in terms of evil: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_India_Company https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_India_Company https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abir_Congo_Company https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abir_Congo_Company https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_involved_in_the_Holocaust https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_involved_in_... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuPont#Controversies_and_crimes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuPont#Controversies_and_crime... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiquita https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiquita

- bdangubic 1y agothis alone is worse than all of what you listed combined https://www.business-humanrights.org/en/latest-news/meta-allegedly-targeted-ads-at-teens-based-on-their-emotional-state/ https://www.business-humanrights.org/en/latest-news/meta-all...
- krapp 1y agoNo... making teenagers feel depressed sometimes is not in fact worse than facilitating the Holocaust, using human limbs as currency, enslaving half the world and dousing the earth with poisons combined.
- bdangubic 1y agoit is when you consider number of people affected
- krapp 1y agoNo, it isn't. I'm not saying Meta isn't evil - they're a corporation, and all corporations are evil - but you must live in an incredibly narrow-minded and privileged bubble to believe that Meta is categorically more evil than all other evils in the span of human history combined. Go take a tour of Dachau and look at the ovens and realize what you're claiming. That that pales in comparison to targeted ads. Just... no.
