One hopes so. For her own sake if nothing else.
No, shit for brains, giving up your job is an actual commitment. Virtue signaling is a token gesture that costs you nothing - like throwing a million dollars at an inauguration party when you're worth billions.
What should we call blatant pandering to Trump and his ilk? MAGA signaling?
You mean the bribes?
I mean both... obviously if you want to get on trumps good side you combine bribing with censoring content he doesn't like, and making sure not to censor or even fact check his lies.
Bruh they're taking action. It's virtue actioning. Unless you're trying to tell them they need to do something more dramatic?
Bye Felicia! Meta exodus.
The sad reality is that most people, like an overwhelming majority, won’t leave. Most don’t even have a clue this is happening in the first place, those that do, love their family and friends more than they hate Mark.
And where are they going to go? I heard Cory doctorow liken it to Anatevka (the town in Ukraine from fiddler on the roof) the people were sad they were leaving because they knew it would never be the same again and they might not see each other again. They didn’t like getting beat by Cossacks and it was a shitty place to be but they didn’t want to leave their people.
Dumping a platform that has your friends and family is a hard thing to do especially if it’s the only meaningful way you can connect with them otherwise. Especially if you know some won’t leave and some aren’t going to go to the same place you are.
On top of that, so many places no longer have websites, they have Facebook pages. Wanna see the menu to your favorite restaurant? Fucking Facebook. Want to know the hours of operation of that computer repair place? Fucking Facebook. Want to know if the shop you're going to carries your brand of something? Believe it or not, fucking Facebook. It's so integrated into our culture at this point. No private entity should ever have been allowed to amass that much power.
Wanna see the menu to your favorite restaurant?
I have used Google maps and it has worked well so far. But it's just the lesser of the two evils.
I wanted to leave a while ago but their shitty development practices got me locked out of my account due to a bug before I could.
I was and I did. What of it, Markie you salty bitch.
virtue - behavior showing high moral standards.
Wouldn't want to signal that.
Get fuck't, Zuck. I'm attempting to convince my entire family to go to Friendica.
I will mention the platform and hopefully plant a seed!
Okay, so what's wrong with that, dipshit? The populace fucking hates your stupid policies because it harms, and sticking in solidarity with those it harms is VIRTUE SIGNALING? That's a bad thing?
Go poorly surf and fight MMA you dumb, dickhead. People hate you and you deserve it.
I virtue signaled over a decade ago.
If treating people with respect and standing up for the greater good of an inclusive society that doesn't villainize people who aren't harming others is virtue signalling then I wear the title proudly.
How long till you idiots realize that you are doing him a favor upvoting his news?
I’ve been virtue signaling for years now. I can’ wait till Meta corp is a tiny greasy stain in the historical record. I’m had two dear friends ask me about the fediverse since Sunday.
Geeze this guy gets a hobby and buys new clothes, and suddenly it’s hardcore this, hardcore that.
And everybody knows he stole Facebook from Spider-Man
Boycott - to abstain from or act together in abstaining from using, buying, dealing with, or participating in as an expression of protest or disfavor or as a means of coercion.
Why, yes. I think he's right. Dadgum, he's just so smart.
Zuckerberg is about make people want to quit even more now.
Aw, is little baby Zuck upset that he's going to lose money somehow?
What if I never used Meta in the first place? What does that make me? Am I a virtue signaller too?
Yeah! Let's go!! Signal to me baby!
uh-huh, uh-huh!
I just left because the platform is full of spam, narcissists and crazy family members that I don’t need in my life. It’s not fun anymore. Hasn’t been for a decade.
I just wanted simple updates from the people i follow in a chronological order. But no, it had to be by the algorithm, all in seemingly random order, and the feed full of slop I didn't ask for being force fed like I'm a turkey being prepared for the holidays, That's why I left.
Wish I could. Have to admin a bunch of brands on it though.
So he's saying people wouldn't sacrifice much if they were to leave Meta-backed services?
this headline gave me a much needed chuckle, what a world.
There were plenty of reasons for my deleting fb over a decade ago, and this horsefuckery is just one more fuckery to add to the list of fb fuckeries (damn, they are many!).
I have no idea what that means, but okay. I quit about a decade ago and have since tried a couple times to "get back into it" so I could keep up better with family/friends, but was unable to muster the desire after a day or 2 and would end up forgetting. Doesn't really feel like I'm missing much overall.
Virtue signalling means that you want to appear like you're better than you actually are, at least in public.
So it means that Zuck thinks people who leave Meta are actually scum, they just want to look nice to others.
If he thinks I'm scum, that works for me!
Mark Zuckerberg’s opinions on ethics and morality are very important to me.
(I won a bet with myself. I managed to type that whole sentence without bursting into laughter.)
Some people may leave our platforms for virtue signaling
anyone who quits Meta is 'virtue signaling'
These are not the same thing. Just a blatant lie.
Actually, I'm okay with that. I signaled my virtue, and I hope that you will, too.
"are you a chicken Marty? Are you?" jeez... so mid-to-highschool 🤦
I wasn't going to bother, but this kind of makes me want to delete my Facebook account.
