Fears Facebook Could Turn Into Platform Dominated By Idiots Making Unsubstantiated Claims

WITH THE ANNOUNCEMENT that Meta is to end its use of fact checkers and reduce censorship on Facebook and other platforms it owns, people are making outlandish claims that they could be dominated by idiots making unsubstantiated claims.

“Oh God, not Facebook, home to the world’s rational, detail-orientated debates? Wherever will I go now when in search of well articulated discussions?” decried some long time users of the geriatric social media site.

Experts in social media platforms suggest without the guardrails fact checkers and moderation provides, Facebook could soon drown in a sea of blurry, nostalgia-laden photos accompanied by text claiming kids are identifying as cats in school, among other claims.

“I just read on Facebook the Irish army is on standby to invade Israel and that there’s a white van driving around my estate grabbing children to sell their organs on the black market. If Facebook says goodbye to fact checkers, how will I tell accurate information like this from the ravings of a loon?” queried more fearful Facebook users.

In making the changes, Meta head honcho Mark Zuckerberg has taken the rare step of copying another platform’s strategy, in this case borrowing wholesale from a South African man who runs one of the world’s largest toxic cesspits.

“You said ‘hey, could you stop the racism, homophobia and the circulation of child exploitation and other illegal acts on your platforms’ and we here at Meta listened and said ‘fuck you, you are the product’. And nothing increases engagement like anger, the spread of completely false and inflammatory moral panics about minorities, and rage-bait. We’re looking forward to sharing this new journey with you all,” confirmed Zuckerberg.

“Our fact checkers also had a history of unhelpful biases such as thinking a small number of wealthy billionaires shouldn’t get to manipulate the masses through their online platforms,” concluded Zuckerberg, who outlined that the new policies would not affect Meta’s long-term commitment to blocking criticism of authoritarian regimes on its platforms.
