The worst part about this is it wasn't just facebook, it was twitter, et.al. The hyperpartisans have been feeding their echo chamber with enough CO2 to destroy the world and they don't even realize they've been used. Dopamine is their drug of choice and the social media echo chamber is their intravenous fix; must have more likes, must have more friends, must virtue signal that person to be liked...

It is too bad many voters stay on social media most of the time and get their "news" from there. Not only that, they don't even read articles posted--they just go with the crazy memes--most of which aren't even true. I have reported inappropriate ones, and fake friend requests, but they really don't care about policing it. I have some family and friends in this category, too, and have had to just unfollow them. I don't know how we fix that, but it's a sad state of affairs. We have almost completed the dumbing down of America.

People don't hesitate a second to spread their life's story with all gory details all over the internet on a regular basis. Even here on RP we post all sorts of details for the world and fellow vets to see. Think what a person could do with all the personal info posted here on RP? No one knows. Then, when that info goes public in some fashion we get irate and complain that RP should have done more to protect all this info from misuse and abuse. People who wish to retain some privacy in this day and age should take steps to do so and not let it all hang out there and complain when someone looks at it.
