People arguing about the price of gas, but as soon as someone mentions driving an EV they’re “stupid” and woke

    That’s Facebook for you. People love to complain about things that take them out of what they have gotten used to but the moment someone offers a possible solution they dig their heels in the sand.

    They’re essentially just shouting out and seeing how many people will absentmindedly agree and reaffirm their view point

      Oh it’s a standard social media echo chamber, and I’m well aware that we’re in one here too. But at least here we aren’t saying that the gas prices are a conspiracy done by the dEMoCrAtS!! Of course to them the only solution is to… have big government regulate gas prices, god forbid they think about alternatives

        I agree Facebook just specifically annoys me because it’s a lot of dumb posts put out without forethought.

      Facebook is the worst social media site of all where boomers and racist people shouting at each other. The best one can do is to delete themselves.

        I’d argue Twitter is worse because it seems more targeted and organized in a way. There’s also the layer of anonymity.

        The best one can do is to delete themselves.

        Unfortunately a lot of people still insistence on using it for school and work
