Lemmy might fit within the technical definition of social media, but don’t be so obtuse as to equate an anonymous community message board with the likes of Facebook and IG that are tied to your identity, and are designed algorithmically to keep you engaged as long as possible while pressuring you to share more and more of your personal life.

then use your brain and analyze this deeper than social media = bad

    Nobody is interested in seriously engaging with your sophomoric “you criticize society yet you participate in it” nonsense. We get it, you’re 14 and think you’re deep.

    Y'all are literally calling for this website to be banned for the sake of pseudo-science.

    Lots of people are interested in this. Y'all are actively helping the worst.

    Great and I am not interested in being subjected to a moral panic that feels like the logic was laid out by grifters trying to distract from their grift by manipulating gullible idiots to empower them even more.

    100%. Haven't these people been watching what happened to TikTok?

    Or are they in denial because they were just as rabid about attacking TikTok?

    Leave here? Why? This place is being built by people who see potential in social media, not people who are stuck in a cynical moral panic that was deployed to distract them from identifying right wing billionaires and the brutal collapse of social safety nets as the drivers of suffering in their lives.
