I used to hate Facebook, but over the years I've come to enjoy it. But now I am starting to hate it again. The reasons have nothing to do with Facebook's privacy issues or Facebook's business decisions. No, the issues I am having are that Facebook has enabled friends, family members and acquaintances to inject their dumb ideas, religious quotes, backwards thinking, ridiculous opinions, FOX news talking points and political beliefs into my everyday life. What I used to be able to ignore is now front-and-center on my Facebook Wall because I have friends and family members who I love dearly but who aren't necessarily the sharpest knives in the drawer.
So, what will "kill" Facebook? It's simple. What will kill Facebook will be its own stupid users.

- code_duck 16y agoYep, the AOLification of facebook has gotten so extreme that I think many people are now seeing that they don't WANT to be connected to their acquaintances in such a fashion.
