Im telling all conservatives libertarians voluntaryists i know. We are just about to get the party started. Socialist hypocritical media sites like facebook and twitter are scams.
"Socialism is ... characterized by social ownership and workers' self-management of the means of production as well as the political theories and movements associated with them."
Facebook and Twitter are not socialist. There is social creation of value (views, likes, thoughts, etc), and the corporate profit-taking of that value (ads). Sounds 2 capitalist 4 me.
except ppl trying to shape opinions with proof of popularity. limiting oposing views and pushing down the individual. sacrifice for the greater following sounds pretty weak to me.
Hey, i am not a big fan of facebook or twitter either, if you aren’t paying for a product, you are the product, and all that.
Still doesn’t make it socialist. Definitions matter.
How isn't that socialist?
Because socialism is "communal ownership of communal labor." Facebook is a private corporation. Even on the micro, user scale, it models private property. Tribal behavior =/= socialist
Corporations are legal entities of government.
It models private property within a mixed market, making it socialist: your data and posts are owned by fb.
That is a damn good way to describe our reality of mixed markets :)
Fighting the good fight, nice!
Agree, i believe those running it have a mindset to manipulate... in a way censorship is meddling in elections foreign and domestically
