I'm not saying Meta are Nazis. I'm saying the position vis a vis Meta and Meta's enablers is very much the same as how you'd have to deal with Nazis and Nazi enablers: excision.

I'm sure a lot of people using Meta are very nice, decent, ordinary people. But they're still keeping an organization that is literally tearing society apart from within alive and thriving. There's no way to support them without also supporting Meta, and thus aiding and abetting Meta's abuse of society.

I do have a beef with them. A large one. Large enough that I excised them from my digital world almost a decade ago and have not looked back. If you're comfortable engaging with people who blithely give support to those who work hard to destroy the social order ... well, you be you, Boo. You be you.
