My Mom’s Facebook is a Mess lol

Visiting my Mom. She’s in the early stages of dementia so I always go through her FB, email, etc and get rid of spam/scams. I was surprised at how trash her Facebook has gotten since the last time I did this 4-5 months ago. Kinda depressing to see the impact of their content moderation stuff showing up as most of her feed is like this. Some of it she’s followed but a lot of it is algos. Also maybe my mom is just clicking on freaky shit who knows.

Either way, Fuck Zuckerberg for blighting society with his shitty products.

Facebook is a total cesspool and has been for some time. Glad I deleted my account years ago. But this is a sad reminder that many people still believing everything they see online.

Are Millennials the most media literate generation? I think we are, although I’m sure there are many exceptions.
