    So I haven’t had a facebook account in quite some time. It was really popular with my generation in my early twenties and used it almost religiously for at least a few years. I stopped using it over a year ago, and it really left a bad taste in my mouth. I don’t hold it against anyone for having one but I do believe these types of things are changing people, mostly woman, for the worse and drastically.

    My opinion is a complete tool for woman. First and foremost the passive aggressive jealousy games are off the chain. I seen this from exs, girls I was dating and from all the other people on there. I had girls constantly stalking their friends and such and then I would get the conversation starter of: ” I want a baby”, “All my friends are getting married”, etc. When in reality she was comparing herself to her friends, all of whom had their fun and found some beta to exploit, AND also talking with god knows how many dudes. Then when confronted it’s: “You don’t trust me”, “I’m just talking, it’s not like I sleep with them”, etc.

    I am sure you all have your own horror stories and such. So I wonder what others thoughts are on Facebook, or any social media for that matter.

    ehhh… not to mention the endless thread of selfies from so many woman each day. Talk about cheap self-validation….

    Social media has successfully destroyed face to face interaction, and is an instant turn on for the socially awkward (my opinion). These are just a few issues I have with social media —>

    #1. The illusion that all those friends you’ve added are actually your friends.

    #2. The ability to spread stupidity that would other wise go unnoticed.

    #3. The early exposure of youth to sex,violence, and bullying.

    #4. The high amount of Narcissus you can find on any social media site.

    #5. The propaganda, lies, and hate that is spread like wild fire by feminist/other hate groups.

    These are just a few of the issues I have with social media, because I could go on for day’s. I personally have little experience with social media, because I only used it for a few months before discovering how much of a blue pill mess it was. Men could easily live without social media, but women…hell no they would go crazy without the attention. I almost wish I could shut all of it down for a year, and see how it impacts society women specifically !

    Facebook is great, enables me to keep contact with friends from other continents, to see what is going on in the surroundings and to set up events. There are boatloads of negative things such as selfies, annoying updates and all that but if you can ignore it facebook serves as a good source of information and a easy way to connect your friends together.

    My experience?

    I used to have it fundamentally for girls.  Instead got a lot of red pills.  Was surprised by the “sweet” girls the most.

    Got off years ago.  Zero regrets.  Missed it a lot less than I thought I would.

    I used Facebook for quite some time to connect with females and then show off my fun and extravagant lifestyle (total blue pill bulls~~~, I know) but then stopped using it when I went red pill.

    All I ever saw on there were:

    • “Sexy” selfies from “hot chicks” who I knew had massive self-esteem issues
    • “Inspirational” image macros from broke females who I knew were horribly unsuccessful
    • “Supportive” responses from manginas and white knights who were totally not getting laid
    • “Important” forwards from people who couldn’t tell an Onion article from the literal Second Coming of Christ
    • “Cute” or “shocking” videos that were more clearly staged than a Michael Bay film
    • The occasional moment of sad truth, loneliness and desperation that was underneath all of it

    The only decent thing I’ve seen on social media in the last year is Fake Watch Busta… the guy who calls out “ballers” for wearing bulls~~~ fake timepieces. That was hilarious. Otherwise it’s all bulls~~~ and it’s bad for you.

    • + One kid have a mental breakdown.
    •       -everyone trying to calm him down (probably so they wouldn’t get shot
    • + Highschool crush going after middle aged married men.
    • + Being hit on by female managers just realizing they are about to hit 30

    Facebook is nothing more than a playground for women. Women can say whatever they want, do what they want, and they never worry about anything. I once made a facebook account, and it was the last facebook account I would ever make. It was f~~~ing hell on facebook. I only lasted a week before I deleted my god forsaken account. However, facebook is still useful for one thing. When you go on facebook, you see how women really are. It shows you the behavior of women that is censored by the media. The way females on facebook take 100’s of selfies, try to get attention in 1000’s of ways, gossip, bully, haze, black-mail, and promote hate movements (like feminism) really say something about them. I’d say facebook was a big red-pill for me.

    I would completely agree that facebook and all forms of social media are horrible for humanity but I will take it one step further than that. I think TEXTING has completely ruined social interaction. I refuse to even have a cell phone these days, for one thing I don’t like the fact that anyone I know can annoy me at any point they want to during the day, I enjoy my privacy. I use to have a cell phone though and it wasn’t so bad before texting got big. I honestly feel insulted when people people think its ok to talk to me while simultaniously talking to 10 other people. How are you supposed to have any meaningful conversation with anyone when they are always doing some serious multi-tasking every time they communicate?? and the whole thing is way too impersonal for me, if I’m going to talk to someone I know I would much rather hear their voice and not have to wait a to get a response after everything I say. So I just have a house phone…if you want to talk to me you will be forced to call…if I’m not home obviously I cant take your call…and no I don’t have an answering machine for you to leave annoying messages on.

    I f~~~ing hate facebook with a purple passion! Let me say that louder…I F~~~ING HATE FACEBOOK WITH A PURPLE PASSION! F~~~ THAT USELESS HORSES~~~ OF A WEBSITE! As a matter of fact F~~~ social media right in its collective asshole! Goddamn, 99% of the population has a narcissist complex!

    Seriously, my ex’s life revolved around that goddamn website. It was a major contributing factor to the demise of our marriage. She would sit and bitch about me to all of her family and FB friends. Of course, they were getting only a very slanted one-sided version of things. They never heard about all the really f~~~ed up s~~~ she was doing to me to drive me to madness. Of course, the next logical step is they all coddle the victimizer because she’s crying on FB daily. Meanwhile I’m the poor f~~~ busting my ass trying to keep food on the table and keep the lights on while she spends her unemployed days playing on goddamn FB and taking naps all day! But I’m the bad guy!?!?!

    Yeah, I was a bad man because I:

    Paid the rent
    Paid the electric bill
    Paid the water bill
    Bought the groceries
    Cooked
    Cleaned
    Took care of the lawn
    WORKED
    Paid the car insurance
    Paid the medical bills
    Repaired the automobiles myself (and paid for parts)
    Took care of my son
    Put up with her bratty kid from previous relationship

    OH BUT I WAS A HORRIBLE ABUSIVE HUSBAND BECAUSE I WANTED THE OCCASIONAL SERVING OF PUSSY! OH THE HORROR!

    …anyway, I digress…f~~~ FB in the ass with a 10lb sledge hammer…and f~~~ all those vapid self-absorbed narcissistic c~~~s that use it as a sad substitute for a life in the real world!

    HISTORY...learn from it, memorize it, DON'T repeat it...

    I think the jury is still out on Facebook and what niche it will ultimately occupy in the culture. Most people have been on it for 5-6 years at the most, so it’s still a young medium that is still evolving, with its users slowly adapting their usage to give them the maximum benefit. That’s what usually happens when a novel form of communication arises…postal mail centuries ago, telephones in the late 1800’s, email in the 1990’s, and now social networking. Over time, all the “bad” aspects (if they are indeed bad) will either go away, or we’ll be able to easily minimize them because we learn how to.

    Some kinds of communication just go away because people get bored with them, or they are made obsolete by newer technology. Remember CB radio? Ham radio? Chat rooms?

    Other kinds improve because we figure out ways to cut down on the stuff that bothers us. Remember when spam was considered a crisis that could make email unusable? Remember being harassed by one telemarketer phone call after another? Remember when you’d get the same annoying chain email from 20 different friends?

    Most of what bugs us about Facebook can be avoided if we’re smart about how we use it. For instance, here’s my basic protocol:

    1. If anyone posts excessively, or posts irritating stuff like political rants, I unfollow (not unfriend) them. If later I find myself curious about what they’re up to, I can always go and look at their timeline.

    2. Set privacy settings so that nonfriends can’t see my info.

    3. Be fairly judicious about who I friend and what info I post.

    4. Post very rarely. Comment on others’ posts when I feel like it, but never feel obliged to. Remember that commenting is like voting for more of the same.

    5. Don’t friend women I’m dating. If she sends me a friend request, ignore it. If she asks about it, say that I hardly ever sign on to facebook. If she persists, say that I don’t want to be facebook friends yet, because that takes away the mystery, or something. Maybe I would have relent if it ever got to the serious relationship stage, but I never let it get that far anyway. lol

    My brother’s girlfriend has a Facebook account. Not my brother. And many guys want to be friend with her and try to date her.

    As she posts selfies (sexy, her motorcycles, her paintings), then she has many male friends on Facebook.

    Even if I think she’s not cheating on him, it is disturbing for my brother as he knows that online dating is a reality on Facebook

     

    And her girlfriend jokes a lot with these men and she told him that they’re funny but she won’t date them.

    I think she has a huge ego.

    FB seems to be comprised mainly of needy people that want other people to pay attention to them. I didn’t know “social” media meant “look at me, look at me, look at me!”. Like a bunch of children trying to get their parent’s attention. You post something and someone hi-jacks the posts to make it about themselves or will simply ignore your posts because they are too busy trying to draw attention to their page.

    The Children of Doom... Doom's Children. They told my lord the way to the Mountain of Power. They told him to throw down his sword and return to the Earth... Ha! Time enough for the Earth in the grave.

    She has many male friends on Facebook

    This is why you’ve got to go with the Tom Leykis “No Male Friends” rule. If you’re seeing a female and she’s got a bunch of dudes hanging around looking at sexy photos of her, she’s eventually going to f~~~ one of them. All those dudes are just like a pack of hyaena waiting around the edge of your campfire for a chance to steal what’s yours.

    You can say it’s only cheating if she gets physical with someone, but I say it’s cheating if she’s got a bunch of guys strung along and talking with them when you aren’t around. So your brother should dump that bitch.

    Of course, you also can solve this problem by simply not dating at all and avoiding all social media but that may be a bit drastic. At least as long as you are with a female, you can’t abide by her playing queen bee and having a hive full of drones waiting for you to f~~~ up.

    Facebook is an attention whore’s wet dream. I refused to participate in it and cut out it about 3 years ago. Never looked back. Delete. Delete. Delete.

    I could go on for a f~~~ing month about this. But what really did it…. was the s~~~ I had to see in my “news feed” from women I used to know (and even f~~~). What is it about pregnant women that makes them all behave like The first pregnant woman – EVER? Daily updates of shots from all angles. Full blown photoshoot-style filters pictures of their protruding belly buttons. And one particular hottie I will never forget (but I am now trying to block out) uploaded a photo of her unwashed infant on a stainless steel tray seconds after her delivery. The chord had just been cut, and I thought I was going to HURL. It looked like a roast fetus, and had about 187265761541564361543 “likes”. Gross.

    What’s next? You gonna take a s~~~ and photograph that too. Isn’t that called a “turdie”?
    I couldn’t believe my f~~~ing eyes.

    The way Facebook panders to women is unreal. They have this feature (for women only!) where a new option under “relationship status” is “ASK ME”. Meaning, some attached harpie on Facebook can be married or “in a relationship”, but mark herself as “ASK ME”. This way, a former boyfriend (or profile lurker) should reach out and “ASK HER” what her status is, so she can be totally non-committal about it. This leaves her open to DECIDE if she is attached – or single – depending on who asks. That’s the sickest s~~~ anywhere.

    Facebook is for women and gays. Their egos and narcissism are off the charts.

    I got so tired of seeing women posting a picture of an engagement ring with NO picture of the guy. She would post a photo and call it “MY RING”. And talk about how “MY WEDDING” is in 6 more weeks. It’s not YOUR ring. And it’s called “OUR” wedding. It’s HIS ring that he bought for you. Remove yourself from my f~~~ing friends list you self-absorbed t~~~, as I thank my personal god I never married you. But thanks for reminding me why.

    Facebook gives women the ability to present themselves as they WANT to be seen. Not as they actually are. The ultimate fantasy.

    I am so glad I ejected that s~~~ when I did. Just disappeared. Deleted everyone without a word and split. Then I would get messages. “why are you not on Facebook”? What the f~~~ kind of question is “Why are you NOT….”? Because I don’t want see every stupid, vapid, self-absorbed, empty-headed thought you have.

    Remember when girls had diaries and they would freak out if a boy just touched the cover?
    We’ve come a long way.

    If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

    I had opened a facebook account once. Then I took an arrow to the knee…. not really. Then this happened:

    – I had spent 3 hours of my life without any reason, trying to figure out facebook, ‘connecting’ to friends, sorting out profile using profile pics etc.
    – Went to check mail and found all the ‘real’ mail being buried under use-f~~~ing-less facebook notifications.
    – Had a relative read some s~~~ a friend wrote on my post, causing embarrassment and problems.
    – Closed the facebook account by the end of the day…. forever. This was back in 2008.

    Now, call me judgmental and say that I came to a premature conclusion over a few isolated incidents that just coincidentally happened to take place on that day by following Murphy’s law. But I will tell you that you only get 7 seconds for making a first impression and I gave facebook 5 hours. That’s more than enough proof that I am not being judgmental about facebook because of a terrible first impression.

    And now that I see my friends talk to each other and find the stuff they talk about, I am glad that I don’t use facebook. And I never will.

    Facebook gives women the ability to present themselves as they WANT to be seen. Not as they actually are. The ultimate fantasy.

    Every time I see a female talking about themselves, I almost always know that they are the exact opposite of what they say they are. My red pill eyes can see straight through the way they present themselves. But you can always see what they really are based on what they follow, especially when they claim that they are a feminist. That says a whole lot about them.

    Sure, women will try to present themselves in a way that they aren’t, but they only do this when they are benefited by it. They never do this when they don’t get a lot of attention and many likes. One example is when they try to pretend they are depressed, or in a state of being suicidal. OR when they say something that supposedly makes people compliment them or pity them. They say things like “i wish i wasnt so ugly. :(” because they know in their female minds that comments like “your beautiful” will follow up from whiteknights. It’s a way that these facebook bitches fuel their fake ego.

    Now being a feminist? We all already know how many people support this hate movement. That’s why they are not ashamed of presenting themselves as a feminist. If they didn’t get likes and comments from virtually everyone commenting “you go girl!” would you still think they would want to be feminists? Feminism is starting to die out though, and women know it. That’s why NAWALTs are popping up. They want attention from men. They aren’t actually “not like that”, they see how quickly feminism is dying out and how many men are going against it. They are terrified of the spotlight not being on them, so they are trying to appeal to men. But they are still no different from feminists when it comes to divorce and alimony checks. They are clinging on to the hope of men saying “marry me!” or “i wish there was more women like you”.

    To sum it up, a woman’s entire life depends on attention.

    I use facebook a lot, but my timeline is generally filled with band updates, jokes and news.  It’s a great way to keep in contact with mates who live overseas.  if people post s~~~ I don’t like I just delete it from my timeline, if they keep posting s~~~ I don’ like, I just delete them from my friends list altogether.  That’s the bonus with facebook, if you don’ like something that shows up, just f~~~ it off and read something you do like.  I’ve deleted a lot of people who annoyed me over the years, the single most annoying thing on facebook though is women (and the odd dude but majority wise it’s women) who love to air dirty laundry on facebook just to rack up sycophantic ‘likes’ while fishing for support from people who have no idea what the real story might be.  Down and out the quickest way to get deleted other than posting racist bulls~~~.

    It completely sucks. I have to have an account there to get work but it has given woman an endless stream of supporters for their fakes stories. Avoid it if you don’t need it for your business.
