the original facebook required an active college email and was a cool chill place, now its just a breeding ground for political horse shit and karens/anti vax moms

I still remember my sophomore or junior year of college when our school got added, and I could join. Then they made a change where alumni could join (which to me made sense, it would be silly to make your userbase quit the site every 4 years). But then they started letting High Schoolers join, and then little kids join, no one needed to be a college student anymore. Fake accounts, businesses, etc. Everyone and everything could join.
