I wish all of this social media crap would be banned world wide.

People are getting dumber and dumber because of this.

Or without that, we just didn't see it. I don't know.

Either way, I'm for a ban for it.

The world definitely seemed less stupid before social media became a thing.

If it was the data collection Trump and co. were worried about, they would have allowed it to be sold to an American company, which was brought up as a solution but they disallowed it. No, they don’t like it because it allows young people to create and share a lot of anti-Trump content. And also because TikTok fucked over his Tulsa rally.

It’s the latter. We just didn’t see it. There is a real case to be made for social media helping the spread of fake news to sway elections though. Facebook’s platform had a role in Trump getting elected in the first place.

USENET never disappeared. Some of us geezers are quietly hanging out on it, hoping no one else notices. I don't have the time to relive my late 80s, early 90s BBSing days, but those guys are out there too.

I still play MUDs. xD
