#socialnetwork
Social media is full of posts by "feminists" crying over the election results in US and the protest by an Iranian woma.
But none, absolutely none of them seems to care about Israel openly and shamelessly murdering Palestinian women, some inside the hospitals.
The disgusting show of hypocrisy is truly sickening.

Getting sick of all these #Saudi assholes popping up on my stream protected by #TikTok preventing me from blocking this garbage and all the other sick Saudis dropping shit on my tikto timeline.
It's unbelievable that TikTok has suddenly become far worse than both ShiTwitter, FaceBook and Instagram.
I am about to file a complain with European consumer rights to challenge the legality of such actions. They should not be allowed to prevent people to block account they find repulsive and sickening like these freaking genocide apologizing monsters.
When #Algorithms Fail: Ancient Origins' Battle with #Facebook #Censorship

Blocking content related to sensitive historical events, such as how the #Nazi Party rose to power, undermines efforts to educate the public about these topics. This may contribute to ‘historical amnesia’, where the lessons of the past are forgotten, increasing the risk of repeating similar mistakes.

Communia bets social media can be good for you
Olivia DeRamus is flipping the script: “What if scrolling through social media didn’t make us miserable? What if, especially for women, social media could actually make us feel more supported?”.
“It’s certainly not what mainstream social platforms have been built for,” DeRamus told TechCrunch. But with her social platform Communia, DeRamus is daring to try something that seems counterintuitive.
Communia is both a social platform and a mental health tool; you can post updates in a community feed, or you can privately journal and track your emotions over time. But for users to get vulnerable, they need to feel safe. So, the platform is taking an approach that could polarize some, but could reassure others: People must verify their identity before they can fully use the app.
“It’s a safety feature, but it also kind of sets the tone that this is an intimate space and that you’re safe here,” she said. “So people feel more empowered to talk about their PMDD, or to talk about the difficult life experience they’re going through.”
I’ve always suspected that anonymous pseudonyms have often led to online abuses, bullying and trolling. So by identifying people, we would probably see more accountability and respect online. I get that many don’t want to be identified online, and that is a perfectly good choice, but for those who want a safer place online the choice to choose a network that verifies identity may be their perfect choice. And I believe it is very good that there is this choice to be had.
But to survive, it will need to be economically viable. With verified identities, you really do not want to have your metadata being shared elsewhere. So let’s hope the economic model is sustainable and also respects rights to privacy.

What I don't understand about the #TikTok problem is what makes TikTok worse than #Instagram, #Facebook, #Google or #Twitter?
Either you ban algorithmic timelines or you ban government spying. But if you only ban TikTok, the #propaganda will still reach us via the other networks ...

#Influencer Accidentally Posts #Restaurant Table #QR Ordering Code
Even though the photo was only shared with her #WeChat friends list and not the entire social network, someone—or a lot of someones—used that QR code to add a ridiculous amount of food to her order. Wang was absolutely shocked to learn that “her” meal soon included 1,850 orders of duck blood, 2,580 orders of squid, and an absolutely bonkers 9,990 orders of shrimp paste.

Young people support Gazans. Critics blame #TikTok.
🔶️ Jeff Morris Jr., a former executive at the dating app Tinder, went viral on the social network X earlier this month for saying that “Israel is losing the TikTok war.”
🔶️ Morris argued a point that that some lawmakers have since borrowed: That young Americans are supporting Gazans in large numbers because of the number of pro-Palestinian videos on the platform.
🔶️ Part of Morris’s evidence was that over the past three years, videos with the hashtag “#standwithpalestine” had 2.9 billion views on the platform, while “#standwithisrael” videos had only about 200 million.
🔶️ Among voters from 18 to 34, 52 percent say their sympathies lie more with the Palestinians, while 29 percent say Israelis.

Zuckerberg's Instagram helps connect and promote a vast network openly devoted to the commission and purchase of underage-sex content.
A WSJ investigation found certain emojis function as a kind of code, such as an image of a map — shorthand for "minor-attracted person" — or one of "cheese pizza," which shares its initials with "child pornography."

A good read from the #Atlantic about #SocialMedia
The Age of Social Media Is Ending
A global broadcast network where anyone can say anything to anyone else as often as possible, and where such people have come to think they deserve such a capacity, or even that withholding it amounts to censorship or suppression—that’s just a terrible idea from the outset.
