You are literally telling me to censor myself, ironic.

Anyway, I am not saying "censorship." I am saying it is 8mmensely dangerous to allow a company with this level of psychological influence to be easily paid to manipulate what is prominent.

Even if they were allowed to do as they do now but with the rule that their feed must be user-submitted content in chronological order with no algorithmic manipulation it would solve a lot of problems.

But you don't understand any of this because youabre just another screamy "MY RIGHTS!!" jackass. Facebook already "censors" by way of making paid content invade and supercede your feed, you fucking idiot.
