    I wanted to see one of these awful videos for myself, so I went to Google and started typing “Facebook baby in oven” when Google suggested to add “how long” 😂

      I’m going to agree but also point out that this notion that Facebook is somehow the coalescence point for the world’s jackasses is totally delusional.

      The world is filled with morons, spend 5 minutes on any platform and you’ll see that.

      There is nothing special about the younger generation and the apps they use, they are just as fucking ignorant as the Facebook users. I mean really, spend a few minutes on any social media app and you are bombarded by the pointless thoughts of every jackass who’s ever felt they had some magic idea they just need to share.

      Or, old. I was saved because I chose a small Friendster clone to make my profile and then MySpace became popular and I was too lazy to build it anew. Also Facebook profiles are closed to non-members.

      Also Facebook insists on real names and I was raised in the belief an online handle and a meatspace identity are kept separate, and never the twain shall meet.

      It means I also dodged the social network game craze. I never clicked a cow or farmed a ville.

      However, so many of my peers have Facebook accounts, and may have had to share their Facebook passwords with bosses who didn’t trust them.

    Let me see if I have my pedo-billionaire glasses tinted correctly:

    School shootings are caused by violent video games, teenage depression, and propping doors open. But promoting Nazi-fascist ideology while posting videos that dehumanize others? All good!

      Fascist ideology is specifically about dehumanizing others. Its premise is that some humans are persons while others are not.

      Its actual premise is that no humans are persons but property is, specifically huge amounts of capital.

      But they don’t say it that way, lest their alt-right warboys realize how expendable they are.

    “Meta Is Refusing to Remove AI-Generated Facebook Videos of Graphic Child Abuse, Including a Baby Roasting in an Oven”

    The future fucking sucks.

    I’ve already moved off it, Mastodon is a much nicer feel. In fact I try not to use anything Meta including WhatsApp.

      I’m trying to cure my immediate peer group by introducing and promoting Signal over Whatsapp. It’s an uphill battle.

        My family group decided to move when I spat the dummy after Meta decided to harvest all the contacts for WhatsApp users. Effectively they are the only ones I use messaging with but for getting others on is a long road.

        Always have laughed at Zuck’s claim that Threads had such a large user base just after the launch. By all accounts , anyone with a Meta account became a Threads user.

    They only care about engagement and growth. Damage to our social fabric, psychological disruption, hardening of positions, suppression of critical thought, encouraging anger … Fuck it!

    hint: is the baby roasting in oven video accompanied by a hasbara/description of “this is what hamas/palestinians do to Israeli babies”?

    Facebook never cared about actual child abuse and sexual exploitation. why the hell would you expect them to give a fuck about AI generated child abuse.

    If they don’t care, make them care. That’s what courts are for: make criminals feel the law.
