I think people only realizes how fucked up it is once they step out for a while
and one day try to go back in. Like TV.

Seriously, I may turn the TV set once or twice per year in order to follow very
specific events, and each time I do, it looks so much more dumb than the last
time. Dumb and manipulative. People who watched TV every day does not realize
because the dumbing down is progressive, but if you check every 6 months you
can say the difference gets HUGE overtime.

My father has never being so happy since he left Facebook for good :-)
