Be critical all you want, just don't try to gaslight by saying they're on the verge of collapse and everyone hates them. They're extremely popular and billions log in every day because they apparently get some kind of value out of the product

Literally nobody was arguing this, though. The OP's outburst about the "vitriol" on this topic also seems pretty overly dramatic, tbh, and has done wonders to derail things because it hurls personal insults.

Everyone that knows the extent to which they're complicit in destroying societies does hate them. As for their popularity, yeah I guess you could call a monopoly "popular" but that's just because there isn't effective competition... because of Facebook's anti-competitive practices.
