Meta INTENTIONALLY Suppressed Evidence Of Social Media’s Harm!

[LightAngel]

I never used Facebook or Instagram or other such creepy places because they always gave me the creeps. 

You could say my intuition always protected me.

Anyway, I am also a private person, so I like to keep certain things private.

I feel sorry for the children of today because I feel they are trapped in some strange kind of prison and most of them don't even realize it. 

I like some forums like our lovely forum here because I feel free here. 




Meta INTENTIONALLY Suppressed Evidence Of Social Media's Harm!




Reports recently emerged indicating that the Meta corporation actively buried internal research showing Facebook users became less depressed and anxious once they logged off the social network. 

Guest host Chris Keane, along with Americans’ comedian Kurt Metzger, and Jimmy Dore Show producer Mischa Paullin, hammers at the hypocrisy of Big Tech, mocking Meta’s excuses while comparing the company's behavior to tobacco-style denialism. 

The discussion widens into a blistering critique of how social media fuels polarization, addiction, and mass manipulation - while DARPA's origins of the whole system loom ominously in the background. By the end, the hosts frame the entire digital landscape as an engineered psychological trap that profits from human misery while pretending to protect the public.

or stop kids from always being in the same room as their phone

it is a culture of vanity, envy, materialism

it's what people want

and they also want to complain about it

so have at it

I am not against the internet, I am here after all, and I do my best to use it in a healthy way, but I think many people need to go to rehab so they can learn to have healthy relationship with technology.

Loneliness is one of the biggest social challenges of our time and the internet can't replace the warmth of sitting across from someone you love.

Half (well, much) of the problem was in how Facebook was deployed, moderated, and 'exploited.'

Many older internet uses see face book as literally "The internet."  Everywhere they "go"... they go via Facebook.... it's their principle "feed"... as television was for their parents.

The research about depression and much more insidious "uses" of "controlled" social networking were evident even in the beginning.  The means of propagating 'information" was very keenly studied.... enter Facebook.

Myspace, etc, disappears; all meaningful competition is eclipsed... absorbed... exploited.  You can browse almost nowhere that isn't "connected" to Facebook.   Even governments use it.... hmmm.

Yummy fodder for conspiracy theorists.

My point is, the evidence in question was not suppressed... it was exalted as the very reason it needed "government" support.  I think there are documents to that effect, but this particular information is not something I cling to ... another "of course it is" kind of thing.

I hope I am completely incorrect.

They knew long ago that Facebook was a joint venture with the MIC - CIA basically .

in  2016 I posted on Facebook that they chose a area and bombarded the young users with depressing ads and stories and watched their reaction. 

There was a massive change in their mental health and posting and how they allowed them to data farm certain age groups and  allowed certain groups access to meta data , and that was before Facebook got caught out  with the Cambridge Analitica  scandal .

I was shocked at how long that stayed up on fake book  but when I posted about all the VIPs  that were visiting Antarctica back then and nothing was getting reported about it in the news .  Yip all the cool kids are heading to Antarctica. 

I was told to delete the post but I did not know how as I only used fake book  maybe 3 times a year to see what everyone was up to , I instantly got a permanent ban on my account,   glad I no longer use SM after that , IT'S for the kids and I am a girny old man
