Everyone wants to make social media this bad thing that, if we just didn't have it, well these problems we have would not really be so bad
Social media is just a dumb piece of software. It may show you specific things based on who you are, but so does television, so does print, so do the billboards you drive by...of course in different ways.
No one forces you to act because of the way these tools make suggestions for you. You still have free will.
People who are dumb enough to believe Qanon would probably have believed it anyway. Plenty of cults happened without social media. I mean the Elders if Zion shit has been around forever.
I am not saying that the new ways social media work are not worth analyzing. And Facebook is so big that it probably should be regulated by government...or something like that
But it is too simplistic to just say 'Facebook, ie Social Media.,,,bad'
Is QBN bad? I like QBN...and get something out of it....but I am strong enough not to click the NSFW thread just because it is there
- Facebook quite literally fuels the fire to this shit.section_014
- Social media from the start...has always brought the worst out in people i.e. trolls, hatred, jealousy, ego, self-importance, propaganda, etc..utopian
- Does QBN qualify as social media with a 100 users?utopian
- maybe social media also brings out the good in people...?dkoblesky
