> [@Gary\_Kumquat](#): > > The day’s just started, and here I am finding myself in agreement with octopus. Fuck. 😕 In another thread we learn that six-year olds are taking guns to school in response to seeing their drunk dads point the guns, in jest, at mom. Do you blame the six-year old, or the drunk dad? Or the multi-million dollar Lie Machine that preaches that keeping a gun handy is cheaper than Viagra? Now, apply that same thought experiment changing “six year-old” to “average redneck voter” and “taking guns to school” to “voting for criminals.” Oh? Typical Trump voters are smarter than the average six-year old? OK, change it to “eight-year old” for the thought experiment. ---

I don’t blame Facebook at all for the Fake News epidemic. I blame the stupid motherfuckers who believe everything they read online. If you see an article from a site called NEWSMAGEDDON saying Hillary sacrifices Christian babies to George Soros, and your first reaction is “I GOTTA SHARE THIS!!!” then you’re a weapons grade moron and you deserve everything you get. Fuck these people. ---

I knew there was a reason I don’t post on Facebook. Actually, I just never got into it. I have a page because some online courses demanded I open one, but I never really used it. I don’t see the appeal. Yeah, Zuckerberg sucks. Most billionaires do. ---

I like FB, I find it useful for certain things. I also have all the ads blocked, I take every “news” item posted with a giant handful of salt, and take into consideration the source. If something piques my interest/worry/outrage I will go and research whatever it is. I’m not a slave or a sheep, TYVM. I’m a reasonably educated consumer taking marginal risks with my private info in return for an online platform I like. Get over yourself, asahi. ---

Typical Trump voters are smarter than the average six-year old? OK, change it to “eight-year old” for the thought experiment. There’s a disconnect here somewhere. If a six year old brought a gun to school because they got the idea from their dad, that would be, at least in part, the dad’s fault and I know that’s the answer your looking for. But 6 year olds aren’t voting based on political ads shown on facebook’s platform. Adults that can, and should, be allowed to make their own decisions are. If your post had been ‘30 year olds are bringing guns to their workplace because someone told them it would be a good idea.’, then who would you blame? The person that showed up to work with a gun or the person who told them it would be a good idea? Comparing voters and political ads to a six year old with a gun and a drunk dad hardly seems fair. A father clearly shouldn’t be doing anything that could make his 6 year old think bringing a gun to school is a good idea, but that’s not what’s happening here. ---

I use Facebook, have it open in a tab on my personal computer all day. Also check it on my mobile phone many times per day. It is how my friends and family communicate. I think it is great but like anything it can and is abused. Personally, instead of trying to decide if political ads are true or not and then take action to remove them I would prefer that Facebook simply bans all political ads. I realize that will never happen, ever, but life would be just the slightest bit less noisy. ---

I agree it probably won’t happen, at least not in the near future (or before the election), but it should be noted that Twitter just did exactly that a few days ago. ---
