I only signed into Facebook again for the first time in years. I moved to a new city and couldn't find any singles groups/social groups on MeetUp or the like. The one I found is on both Instagram and Facebook so I was forced back into the cesspool. My feed on Facebook is filled with "sponsored posts" and "people I might like", GTFO of here with that bullshit. It was bad before, but I honestly don't see how people in "first world nations" that don't need it for commerce and general communication still use it.

It's become so much worse.. I really hate it. Funny thing. It actually tried to make me watch republican bs. It showed me some really extreme far right shit and I was like.. OK where do you think I am politically...? It sucks because people that are not aware might actually fall for that crap.
