Its not social media that's the problem...The bi-monthly I don’t do social media thread
Its Facebook.
Is Facebook still banning Black people for discussing racism?
If so...fukk that site. It ridiculous to see what other black people were getting banned and suspended for on that site. Everything from activists getting silenced under their hate speech clauses to talking about racial disparities. And all of those damn secret exclusive groups that I've pretty much assumed are just covers for white people to create racist ass groups....never sat well with me. Ofcourse they have problems...but they claim to have no bias...when it's taken so long for them to get rid of their white supremacy problem...which they have got rid of.
I used to be on Facebook and got rid of it 5 years ago and never looked back. I went to private catholic high schools so I went to school with alot of white people. The older I got I started to hang out with more and more black and Spanish folks living in New York to the point I couldn't even relate to my high school friends because we went on such different paths. Then I started noticing more and more white people I was "friends" with on Facebook started getting really comfortable being racist and certain incidents like police shootings, Trayvon really exposed how they really felt to the point I didn't even want them as friends anymore. Plus I just ended up comparing myself to others and making myself depressed so I just dreaded my facebook account and I wont even make another one...tried to recently and I deleted it after five days cause I couldn't make a fake name I had to offer real info...
And after the cambridge analytica scandal and knowing how increasingly nosy Facebook is I dont want anything to do with that site.

YouTube has live interaction that facebook does not center on but its subsidiary Instagram does.
YouTube is funded as a google product. Google is a stronger brand than Facebook. Though it has interconnected to a certain extent with its media, the medium is owned by different shares.
Facebook plummeting nor its products will not stop Google from its money.
YouTube has garnered a bad reputation in last few years however though it is still much more open source for Community Information rather than Facebook.
YouTube live streaming is more abundant and openly popular compared to Facebook live stream because YouTube you don't need an account to view it's content.
I must know I do have public criticism of both companies but I also know the reality that more people are going to be Dependable on Google searches, using Google phone services, emailing through Google, and watching videos through this platform YouTube.
Facebook does not have that kind of interactivity nor does it contain that kind of information. It's as you say originally intended for friends and colleagues to keep communicate but more serious business people nowadays use Google based products to keep away from unprofessional things on social media.
Now I do know that both companies have made exploits of black people many times. Including censorship, however YouTube has too many accounts to remove all the home grown content and underground channels completely. It's too big of a site that constantly updates. Being account free makes it enjoyable for casual use without heavy personal involvement.
I think FB and IG are just 4 the nosey and clout chasers not interesting enough to keep me around. Just outdated! The only reason why these services are still popular is Facetime video chats and Instant Messaging.
However I think there is much better apps to use than that out there.

Take It In Blood
Banned
Statistics show that ppl who spend alot of time on social media tend to be miserable
People still using Facebook is bigger news to me. My co-worker always justify in using that shyt because of "communities" and etc, but always talking about the drama

Man Facebook is old news, most people done left that shyt, half of the world is more fixated on Snapchat(I don't see that being around that long), Instagram and Twitter(Depending on geographical location) Anyway I stopped using that Facebook shyt in 2014, stopped using my personal Instagram account in 2017 I just recently made a professional account back in May to network with others and my Twitter is being used the same way as the latter.
I tell you what though social media has activated Narcissistic and Sociopathic tendencies in many people's lives, in addition, I think people have developed some sort of bipolar disorder, as social media develops you got folks thinking they are a somebody thinking as if their opinions mean something but the end of the day these folks are average joe's including the influencers(Can't take them seriously), you got folks living double lives as two different people, you got folks that will do self-centred shyt to get likes and views, and you got folks that are immersed in their false life.

Social media just doesn't sit right to me. Same thing with these smart phones. Don't think that they are healthy at all. shyt is basically drugs. The things people will do for likes and they really get a high off the likes too. That shyt isn't good.
I feel as if they (the owners and creators of that shyt) know that they're fukking people up too and are aware of the effects of that shyt. Plus the fact that social media was created as a people database for the CIA. They basically run that shyt. Same with Google. It's basically everything wrong but they disguise all that and say that "this is for people to network, keep in contact with their family, relatives, friends, loved ones and etc". It's poison. If you're going to use it, good luck because that shyt was made to use you, drain you and make you a slave, fukk up your brain to make you physiological dependent on it. Its hard as hell to not let that shyt control you. It's going to only a matter of time before they start saying that social media is a public health hazard.
