Yeah, everyone should stop using Instagram, Facebook, threads, reddit, tik tok. But the FOMO is too strong. It's too bad, if they did it would fix most of their problems in like a week.

Exactly.

Okay, now do religion.

Everyone should stop going to churches, synagogues, mosques, the church of latter day saints, and scientology. But the FOMO and fear of eternal damnation is too strong. It's too bad, if they could just realize that everything is god including themselves, they could live happier more fulfilling lives in like a week.

I'm so far ahead of you I'm actually behind you.

I'm actively working on moving on from Facebook. The amount of false information on the platform is just astounding and when you report the lies, you just get a response saying it doesn't break any rules. Not even talking politics here, there was deceptive AI post about two top tennis players, that I reported.

Why is the leftist approach is to platform the opposition while the rights approach is to overwhelm the space until it does what they want?

Which approach do you think is working and which one do you think is failing?

Those spaces are overrun by bots, so have fun fighting against a never ending army of CPUs that doesn't sleep. I am going to protect my sanity and not give them my time and energy (which equals their money).
