Facebook is cracking down on fake news. And no, obviously not everybody is a rational actor but we need to pull back from thinking that every last thing everywhere in every way is dadaist performance art. Some actors are still rational.

Yeah, I think now the rule is for every fake news story they allow they have to cut two fake news stories

it's actually a california grizzly, there are plenty of brown bears left but we did hunt that particular species to extinction

A grizzly is a subspecies of the brown bear (ursus arctos) and there are not any brown bears of any subspecies left in California. The subspecies that formerly lived in California, California grizzly or Ursus arctos californicus, is extinct, while the general subspecies referred to as the "grizzly," Ursus arctos horribilis, remains in the northern Rockies and western interior Canada and interior Alaska. There are lots of black bears (ursus americanus) left in California.

I'll believe that Zuck and the gang care about fake news when I see them do something about it (they won't do anything because fake news is good for them lol)

and no, there are no rational actors. there never were. the number of irrational actors just used to slightly outweigh the number of batshit insane actors

I am not mocking you when I say that I recognize that you're going through some poo poo in response to this election. That's good in a way because apathy is the enemy but you're dangerously close to working yourself up into a catatonic state. The Zuck is a shithead but that doesn't change the fact that Facebook doesn't benefit from a Trump presidency. Hell, their stupid rear end COO had dreams of getting a position in HRC's cabinet. Facebook might not be doing enough, or making changes quickly enough, but they are certainly under pressure to address the fake news epidemic.

The move isn't to say "Oh bother!" all day long, Eeyore. It's to keep pressing institutions to stop being so loving terrible at their various jobs.

The Dallas shooter was military but not even an infantryman (and probably wasn't well versed in maneuver tactics) and look at the damage he did, imagine a dozen or so equally-armed people who have drilled together.

I'm hopeful that this election finally woke up heavily used social media to this problem and they are actually going to loving do something about it.

I'm probably too optimistic, but if there's reason to hope it's that the silicon valley corps are all closely held, their boards have more money than God, and they seem to have a sense of civic duty. You'll never reach the people who have Breitbart/Drudge as their home page, but if you can shut the odd Aunt/Grandfather up about some nonsense their tennis buddy sent them it's a start.

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

I'm eagerly awaiting the day that reddit bans r/The_Donald. It's going to be a hilarious mess for about a week with spammed poo poo like happened with r/fatpeoplehate got banned and then people will just want to go back to looking at pictures of cats and dumb inspirational quotes from Elon Musk.

If a site like Reddit is going to survive the silicon valley bubble bursting, they have to find a way to monetize and there have to be a lot of people hesitating to invest when their front page is full of 4chan Donald memes.

Or, they can die along with a bunch of other dot coms. I'm fine either way but there has to be a lot of pressure on them to get rid of r/The_Donald.
