Facebook/Quotes

""The most remarkable characteristic of the Facebook people is that they've built a system without any room for negativity. An individual either "likes" something or moves on, either "joins" a group or "ignores" the invitation. There is no dissent, only silence. The one outlet they have to express indignation or hatred is through the comments, but even that resource is limited to the confusion of their stunted vocabulary and grammar.""

""Blame Facebook for creating a massive reality-distortion field; for allowing its more than 200 million active North American users to dwell in a fever swamp of misinformation and ridiculous falsehood; for poisoning the minds of millions of old people more effectively and permanently than any medium since cable news; and for enabling and legitimizing Peter Thiel, an idiot ideologue with more money than God who is now clearly one of the most dangerous men alive.""

- Alex Pareene, Fuck Everything And Blame Everyone (The Concourse, published after the 2016 US Elections)

""Facebook's content guidelines and corporate policies continue contradicting our values. We've tried to craft our voice for the platform, which in our opinion continues to be sexually repressive. Learning of the recent meddling in a free U.S. election further demonstrates another concern we have of how they handle users' data — more than 25 million of which are Playboy fans — making it clear to us that we must leave the platform.""

- Cooper Hefner, Chief Creative Officer of Playboy, announcing the deactivation of Playboy's Facebook page, in a March 2018 tweet
