RE: The bleak life of a social media moderator, and a few thoughts on censorship

in #censorship6 years ago

Totes.

Although I don’t think it was hidden, just that many sectors of society weren’t exposed to it.

I re-activated my Fakebook account and purged all non-close friends. But even still, no one is sharing anything creative there (and all those people are creatives in their own way)... it’s instead become a selling platform, where they’re all advertising and selling their creativity, but not sharing it. That or their whingeing about their lives to get sympathy votes.

I’d hate to be one of these moderators. I think it goes to show the effects that being constantly exposed to that crap!!!!!

It’s not Utopia here on Steem, but it is a far-sight better!!!!! I think we need to authentically celebrate that.

I prefer whinging about society on steem rather than whinging about my life on Facebook. I imagine there's a lot of virtue signalling going on as well!

I can't really criticise people for using Fbook to sell stuff - I do that - educational resources. Whether you regard those as creative is a matter of opinion I guess!

I have no problem with people selling stuff. But FB has definitely become a selling platform which has completely overtaken the sharing of creative output. Although to be fair, it was never that really.
