How the fuck come there's no organized movement against social media? They're literally brainwashing devices. Plus they're all under the indirect control of US government. How come EU and rest of the world has not woken up to this? I guess China did but they just made their localized poison instead of rejecting it altogether.
It's literally the biggest misuse of internet imaginable. Even deep web is more innocent than this shit. It's literally mass brainwashing. How do we save the future /g/?

You can't. Social media sites are taking advantage of the basic human need of communication. Everyone wants to talk to each other. Without the hassle of going out and doing shit.
Kinda like this site?

Fun fact: both this website and facebook farm your data for shekels.

I think the biggest difference is that noone's self esteem is at stake here. 4chan does not invoke any compulsion for self promotion. Whereas the smallest dose of social media I get makes me feel like I'm inadequate and should go out and do things just so I can talk about them online.

I mean, the bait posts and people fishing for (You)'s here is the only thing slightly close to wanting some self promotion here (sort of).

When did this start? Like I knew it was going on, but was it after Hiro took over or while Moot was here?

jap moot is doing it for sure. Unsure what original moot was doing but the captcha and job at google is suspicious.
