    “If we can’t get money from targeted far-right fake news anymore, we are going to pretend an achievement of basic social equality from a century ago is now a controversial opinion too”

    Meta, probably.

    I can’t believe people are dumb enough to still use Facebook.

      It’s not being “dumb enough”, it’s an addiction in the sense that scrolling through, liking posts and posting things gives people a Dopamine high. It’s really no different than a gambling or shopping addiction.

      The site was designed that way. It took hints from the instant gratification that people got from grinding in World of Warcraft and the feeling of being important that MySpace gave everyone. Facebook is nothing but a virtual Skinner Box at this point.

      I have a dog rescue and it’s where a lot of our adopters find us. More so than Petfinder, our site, or other social media. I also know a bunch of small businesses that use it too. Definitely still has a lot of practical use.

      I only have it for groups, the only place on Facebook where meaningful interaction is still possible

    What?! A sensitive social issue was attempting to have society socialize about it on a social network?! Preposterous!

    I jest, but it is interesting that fb wouldn’t allow these specific ads, when it (fb) allows so many mis- and dis- information ads. But I’m just a Lemming. What do I know?

    The sensitive social issue of Women’s Suffrage?!? This is a historical and settled matter. What, are they going to ban games based on WW2 too?

    There are far more controversial things that they let pass. No, this feels like active political interference, maybe some sort of internal anti-feminist bias.

    Meanwhile all the scammers and spammrs still get to post their ads.
