Which means at least 20% believe that it hurts democracy, but on the whole find it to have been a beneficial thing.

May your chains rest lightly upon you.

Who cares about Democracy? I worry about threats to the Republic. Democracy is a dream for uneducated people where their voice is heard. what nonsense. Democracy is the Tyranny of the Majority and its always all about Politics. Its always going to be a mess.

I never understood how Facebook got involved with politics or pushing liberalism...

Isn’t Facebook supposed to be people sharing photos and life events and such?

Why did we hear about Facebook and the Facebook news feed? Why does Facebook have any news feeds at all? What am I missing?

I’ve had almost no interaction with social media for 5 or 6 years. I still have a facebook account only because I haven’t bothered to cancel it. I’ve only logged in about 5 or 6 times in the last 5 or 6 years. I never bothered with twitter or any of the others.

It’s Social(ist) Media, not social media.

It's the censoring that gets me.

If you talk "bad" about Hillary (even if it's the truth)...you are deleted.

If you talk bad about Trump, you get a thumbs up.

It became politicized because liberals just can’t help themselves p. Politics are interjected into EVERYTHING. In my Facebook circle, the more politically active on social media, the greater chance of some poor life choices.

I’ve been predicting this and waiting for this. Took awhile for folks to wake up. (Longer than I thought it would.)

Facebook is the retirement home of social media.

I’m not sure about the other causes/reasons for thinking negatively about those mentioned but I believe it has given anyone using them license to be as nasty as they want - without having to confront anyone. It sure shows here at FR - almost like people forget they aren’t using social media and just let their nasty moods/attitudes fly. I, for one would like to see a return to a kinder, gentler FR. And it’s a puzzle to find out the longer they’ve been on FR, the nastier they become. Must be old age setting in.
