RE: Why I Deleted Facebook, Chose Solitude & My Lack of Trust in Humanity

in #life7 years ago

wow I see how facebook can waste your time and how it's always people showing off to saying their political views and if your wrong they blast you for thinking different. I currently only use Facebook for my business and that's about it, I stay away from the drama. I would say many ppl would do better without it and probably save them a lot of time, good post

Sort:  

That's smart that you only stick to using Facebook for business purposes. But yea, the biggest problem Facebook creates is lots of unnecessary drama ... and political posts are the worst since now people can troll anonymously behind a computer.

Back then, when people had discussions, they would talk face to face. There at least was some courage there. But now people are cowards and hide behind computers to talk crap against each other.

Yes and it does get very tiring. For example 2 days ago one of my friends goes on this complaining rant about how Black ppl are treated so differently and how they can't start business and are stopped with a brick wall at every way and have difficulty all the time. So I sent him a messages saying I own multiple busissness and had no issue due to race or anything weird or stupid stopping me, I told him the only thing stopping him was himself and making to many excuses. BAD Mistake. I got blasted by all his ppl following him telling me I am not black enough or haven't been through struggle. It went 0 to 1000% real quick lol. But it was a very civil conversation then turn to a bash me movement. so The negatives of Facebook makes people do and say things they wouldn't in person and can create so much negativity, so i'll refrain from doing that for a while lol

Sorry that you ended up getting the "blast".

Yea, whenever I see something online that I don't agree with ... I tend to quickly gloss right over it ... the only time I'll get into a friendly banter is if the person is right in front of me ... then I can see their face and body gestures and less likely to make assumptions.

I checked out your profile and noticed you are based out of Vegas ... what do you do out there?

I am a investor and entrepreneur, love Vegas life, but still meet a bunch of anti President Trump supporters lol.
