heroKK Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I think I am probably one of the very few people in the world who never created an authentic Facebook account, I always loathed this site, it's leftist, it serves globalist agenda's, I agree with the Chinese, the Vietnamese and even the Iranians who banned this site completely, considering its obvious bias towards the interest of some particular minority group, I think it's time for the people to give other alternative sites the chance, I uses VK.com because I can use it through VPN it does not require any logging to read its contents, I can write and express freely all my political views unlike Facebook that s a spying tool used by different governments.

fiddlehead Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 There are many different uses for all the different social medias out there. The trick is to use the one that your friends, family and people you want to communicate with are using. For me, I have many of those who use Facebook. Thai people love FB and many use it for business. I just found out a new one today, that many people (Thais included) are using: WeChat. I thought "Line" was 2nd. anyway, to the OP: Up to you to use whatever one(s) you like. Or none at all. But if you want to communicate with Thais: FB or Line will probably get you more action than that VK you talk about. I for one, have never heard of it and have my doubts whether many of my friends are on there. But hey: to each his own! Go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones who are using Facebook as tool to stage dissents and coups against governments not aligned with their predefined agenda of ruling the world, that 's why the Chinese and many Swiss like me are not easy to be fooled around, we busted FB red-handed censoring the pages of the media of legal political party within the Swiss parliament, besides of their biased political censorship FB also is spy on average users, according to the Wall Street Journal "Facebook knows what millions of people do on their phones, even if they don’t actually use the social network, a new report claims." Facebook made money from ISIS adverts, (btw they are pro ISIS, against all who were against it) and peddle (paid for) fake news, effectively keep users in an online bubble ( tailoring news etc to fit individual - either never challenging undividuals views and beliefs .... Surely theres a problem ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am more worried about those billionaires building spaceships and colonies on the moon and Mars. That tells me that what they are planning is to eradicate human life here on planet Earth (heck, if they turned off FB half the world's population would die spontaneously), kick back for a bit on Mars till things cool down here and then come back and start new with a race of genetically engineered slaves. In any case, I am all stocked up. The moment I see the end coming I am disappearing into my hideout. Ain't nobody taking me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antonymous Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I’m with you OP. Your message is spot on correct, but it is being read by the lost generation. You won’t get many replies because they don’t want to face the facts. The lost generation are the ignorant ones who are using Facebook and other social media on their tracking devices (smartphones) without any thought or care for their privacy. They think you (we) are wearing tin foil hats and they will only ridicule us. We know better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should probably add a few more $$. I have never joined Facebook even for a day. I don't get your comment on why people who have bought FB stock are suckers. Facebook was huge before it sold shares.

I would rather describe it as a well designed social media application which detracted from its original ideal when the owners got greedy. Not because of the adverts but more towards the way they increased the people you ended up being linked to for click revenue. So it turned into the monster we see today. And of course, one would be naive if they didn't believe it was used by many, many agencies from many countries for data gathering. But, Hey-Ho, such is life.

dotpoom Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 The only a/c I have is this one, TV. My question would be....where is the phone addiction going to end. I now see farangs using it at the traffic lights ( and while moving) on their motorbikes. I know a little about addictions being a recovered alcoholic....but as true as God I have never seen an addiction with this sort of obsession.

I think the chinese were smart when they promoted local sites, remember that Facebook was used in 2009 to organize a Ürümqi riots in China that killed almost 200 people. The Chinese government asked Facebook to help identifying the terrorists. Facebook said, eh, hmm, just freedom fighters exercising free speech. u kidding me ? they censored a simple caricature of Carlos lattuf and cant censor ISIS ? So the Chinese told them to get the <deleted> out of China. meanwhile during the elections in Europe they censored and close down all alt-rights pages Edited September 28, 2017 by heroKK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never use Facebook myself, not so much because of all the problems you alleged in your screed, but just because much of the content was just people babbling on and on without saying much worth reading.

If you think that all internet sites are not being watched by any authorities, then you have got another thing coming . If you have extremist views, then its best to post then anonymously on obscure forums . Facebook is quite liberal , as in the sense you can post what you want .

silver sea Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) I use Facebook, because most of my friends have a FB account. I can then contact them on FB Messenger. If you go away on a retreat or to a conference and you make friends, it is easier to stay in contact by FB Messenger rather than by email. Over the years, people will change their email address, but not their FB page. If you use Messenger, you can see that your message has arrived; whether the recipient is online using Messenger; you can see at what time they opened the message; you can chat to each other in "real time". These advantages are not available when you use email. Most companies, media agencies and discussion groups have FB pages too so there always plenty of interesting articles to read.
