Facebooks biggest succeess, it seems, is to exist as a conventional corporation
while making everybody believe they are something else.

Facebook is a company traded in public exchanges with an absurd price-to-book
ratio. What that means is they tricked a whole lot of people into buying shares
of their company for a price way higher than the company is worth. Facebook is
a heavily overcapitalized company owned by capitalist powers who will be forced
to squeeze it dry in order to see returns for their overinvestments.

I don't care how good the employees are. The power Capital has is they can take
good people and abuse them and enslave them and make them work torwards the
Capital's goals instead of the worker's. Facebook is no difference at a
fundamental level. It is owned by the Capital and workers' output is taken and
used as the Capital sees fit.

Facebook may protray itself as a worker and humanist friendly organization, but
when they market themselves as a Good Entity they are just acting as somebody
who takes a turd and wraps it in colorful papers, trying it with a nice gift
ribbon. They are trying to make something awful look great by selling it as a
great thing, but at a fundamental level they are just a turd.

The saddest part is when the workers themselves get to see the colorful
gift-wrap and the ribbon and rush to attack anybody who denounces it is just a
well marketed turd. Indeed, Facebook's Capitalist masters have managed to get
the enslaved class to defend their Capitalist interests. It is the slave
defending Blackrock and Vanguard as they squeeze them dry. It is disgusting.
