(17,425 posts)However, that's my own preference because I do not really have a solid, legitimate reason to use it.
I can, however, see how it can be useful tool for people. It's actually a shame because the founder could tilt his company to the side of good, but he's not doing that in any serious way. For my own personal circumstances in life, the bad aspects of Facebook far outweigh the good. It is the opposite for many other people though, for legitimate and sound reasons.
I'm not going to criticize people who use it. Everyone has their reasons. I don't walk in anyone else's shoes, and they do not walk in mine.
Unless and until I have a need for it, I will continue to stay away from it. Even if I absolutely had to use it, I would hold my nose while doing so, because I believe most social media is a major reason why the entire world seems fucked up in ways that I could never have previously imagined.
