Clay Bennett for October 27, 2021

It’s a Q-publican survival kit.

I look at the comments on most of the gocomics site. The hate speech is overwhelmingly one sided by a ridiculous margin. Don’t believe me, go from comic to comic and take notice for yourselves.

FaceBrick makes $Billions by selling eyeballs. And information about how people react to various things. They have discovered that when allow their product… I mean users to interact with a large emotional component, they stay online longer, see more pages with more ads, reveal more about what they are willing/wishing to purchase, etc. And the very easiest emotion to provide is antipathy (“hate lite”) which they can do simply by giving a wide audience to folks who promote hate. If their product.. I mean users choose to slide over into actual hate, or even act on such emotion, that’s not FB’s doing (they will argue). Similar considerations apply to conspiracy theorists, vaccine lies, etc.

So it’s no wonder that they continue to do what makes them scads of money while lying about doing something to ameliorate it.

Just a bunch of tools.

There are lots of hungry fire eaters out there who have acquired the taste.

I’m sorry for repeating myself, but it’s not the social platform but the people who use it. Like a gun. It’s not going to fire itself.

If it wasn’t Facebook, it would be something else. We are attacking the messenger, but ignoring the message and it’s source.

You nailed it, sir.

I got off FB after the election and have never regretted it. I used to use it another way to stay in touch with my kids, but they’ve all stopped using it as well. FB has far outlived it’s usefulness.

Fb is a contributing factor to terrorism, human trafficking, and other lewd and dangerous sites that promote evil.

The ‘strip should have included stupidity because a person has to be really stupid to believe everything posted on a website that is open to the world’s population. For example, 1+1=3, Donald J. Trump is honest and the COVID-19 pandemic will just disappear.

Once we nail Facebook, it’s time to go after the Chinese menace – TikTok

Odd position for a lot of cartoonists today.. jumping on the ills of FB while.. essentially encouraging the same with provocative cartoons.

What was suppose to be a family oriented social media has been allowed to become a political weapon!

I thought Facebook was a hero for de-platforming Trump. It seems now the left is turning on its own.

yep, a wildfire of hate stoked by GOP greed and mendacity.

Mark Zuckerberg is not too bright. His only defence has been a “poor me.” appeal when he needs to lawyer up and quit whining.

Z is now using the same defense as the Fat Orange Clown while claiming he welcomes review and criticism; it’s the media’s actions that is creating the problem without justification. He has probably been persuaded by his lackeys not to yell “fake news”.
