I do genuinely think he’s thinks he’s doing good and I do think that Meta stuff is a net benefit to the humanity.

The problem I see is that you've bought into his lie. He might "sound" genuine in thinking he's done good, much like Bill Gates sounds genuine when he talks about his philantropic shenanigans. It's all an act.

The only net benefit I see off FB/Meta is that it taught us how dangerous and shitty a centralized internet is.
