What’s up with some sites requiring you to use Facebook to comment?

Probably a kickback or it's free to them, letting FB filter the chaff/actionable comments, and its censors do the dirty work on the factual, but politically undesirable comments.

Do not patronize sites that do this. They are propaganda organs and have nothing of value to offer you. Do not give them your web traffic.

Or they only allow thumbs up - never down and you have to use Facebook to comment to make sure it’s easy for suckerberg to note whether you need re-education.

The NYT is like that. Some stories that cry for comments don’t have a section. I was wondering if paying customers see the comments.
