Pretty sure that if you get to see a lot of "Violent Content" on your Facebook, you're either following the wrong groups or have wrong friends who you chose to allow to (or you're specifically looking it up 😅). If there's anything Facebook is good at, it's at keeping people cosy in their selective information bubble. I myself have maybe had 5 posts that actually had shocking content I rather not had seen in the 14 years I was on Facebook, and I think most of them by the same 1 person that I eventually asked to exclude me if they post stuff alike... 😅
Not gonna argue that visual shock trauma isn't a thing, it surely is! (I have sadly collected a small (mind-)museum of those in my lifetime myself.) Nor am I gonna claim Facebook "isn't that bad", it definitely is too! But this just has moneyfishing written all over it.
👴🏼 Oh, well,... Back in my day, when we saw something that would scar us for life, we'd immediately call as many friends possible to come look at it too... 👴🏼 😅
Exactly. If Facebook content moderators don't like to see that stuff they shouldn't be following those Facebook groups.
Idk why this was downvoted, this is pretty obvious sarcasm.
