Thinking of binning off Facebook as so many Far Right propaganda threads - with hundreds of "genuine" comments in agreement with the original poster.

The latest pitch is that they're not "Far Right" they are just ordinary people fighting for their Country back. Fascist HQ seems to understand that the tag of Far Right might lose them the support of some of their hard of thinking followers. There must be a lot of money backing them though given the proliferation of their pap across social media. Probably keeping the Russian economy afloat.

Sounds like this board

Facebook is full of old people, so no surprise.

X is full of the same crap to be fair. Funny that, given Elon Musk owns it.

What are you on about?

Its the social media of choice for old folk.

Youngsters abandonded it years ago. Its Friends Reunited.

The kids are mainly on TikTok, Insta and Truth Social these days

So are the above getting pasted with far right crap?

Actually deleted insta the other day where a video of a hitler speech translated was met with hundreds of “he was right” or similar. Grim

Far right stuff is on all social media and contrary to what LSN implies it is all age groups

I didn't say it wasn't elsewhere too. Apparently reform are popular on tiktok

My Facebook page is full of kindness and joie de vivre. You might want to review why you are getting so much stuff from the far right.

Rage scrolling trains the algorithms apparently

Indeed, mine’s full of Tits, Fanny & Orient

I know one ole decrepit Right Wing git on Facebook ( husband of a lady admirer- so I have to keep her sweet ). He is inclined to share the Racist nonce stuff. So he shared the ole chestnut photo of Lee Rigby with a poppy- saying Facebook keep removing this. I pointed out to him that this was not some altruistic move by Facebook, but a direct response to requests by Lee Rigby's family to not use his image for Racist purposes, as he had no time for racism. That stopped that little outburst in it's tracks. You can always report stuff to Facebook- they often ( slowly ) take action. I feel you should always call out bad behaviour. I never have & never will use Twitter or whatever that obnoxious git Elon Musk ( what a weird name ) calls it. I invite you all to do the same.

Fair point but I don’t use FB for that.

How do you see this? I'm only friends/following people I know in social media and don't get any of that stuff.

I’m really not sure as I don’t follow or comment on politics on FB. Just unlucky I guess.
