>>703 >It's not just the fact that they're normies. There normies who social structure is based around who can be the most normie of the normies. It's the worst of social media to me, personaly. If I were to join I could be pressured to get into regular contact with people I'm not the most found of. Regularly having ta like post that someone else posted because I'm there friend and they could take it the wrong way I see my mom stress over this all the time Not to mention that if you ever become a serious participent there you almost always get entered into a silent "life contest". Even worse then Instagram or Twitter, because at least there are some people there who use it for other then life posting Not to paint with a broad brush. There are plenty of people I know who use facebook who are wonderful people, but I see this kind of stuff at least some in like 90% of them. I don't even like the term "normie" but that is a word that I think fits facebook well. It's the worse of the mainstream and it made the mainstream itself worse.
for me,normie sounds like a retarded term but the meaning behind it is reasonable. People who act as if that was the normal pattern for the society so everyone else should follow those trends blindly. The trick is always notifications. Whenever a friends of yours calls you or comment on any blog or entry,you have the need to answer them soon. Unlike here which is optional and nobody is forced to stay, I see that in FB you are risking you cybernetic life and so,your actual life. I can say I am addicted to mobile but I can let it behind if I had better things to do. However,what you tell me is terrifying in the sense that it feels like pure slavery in order to save your personal image everyday.
I wonder how much frequency normies lie or pretend to follow something when in reality,they don't feel like that...
