> there was never a free for all because that eventually ends up like 4chan

This is false, because Facebook is bound to your real identity.

A completely unmoderated Facebook will never be like every /b/ or /pol/ thread. People aren't quiet as outspoken with derogatory terms and pornography if it their family sees what they've written.

Random copy pasted examples:

- There are 9 billion people on the planet why don't you nuke china india and africa then get back to us

- And? I dont care what race you are, you all need to die. TMD.

- To gas glowniggers on-sight?

- Hang yourself tranny



Creating "burner" Facebook accounts is trivial and most public Facebook group discussions are absolutely chock-full of them.


If only we lived in a world where this was true.

Real genocides have been coordinated through Facebook in the third world. People are proud to put their real identities and their real names behind all kinds of evil ideas.
