Mark Zuckerberg has to accept what the customers prefer. It
is unwelcome to ‘edit’ your work to include or omit things that you do not stand for. But Mark, as he accepts ‘other positive changes’, he should also accept ‘other
changes’. It boils the bowels to find that a CBO you started is wrangling over an
issue and you can’t do a thing (or can do little) simply because the
dunderheads subscribed reward goodness with challenge and have some rights.
As we impatiently wait for the button so that we may
propagate our rational and irrational endeavours, I am pessimistic that the
button will soon lose its meaning. Reasons as to why people are calling for the
button is curiosity- that made Eve pluck the fruit. Because we don’t have it
and never seen it in use, then let us introduce it. We know that we will handle
the consequences. But that will add menu to the idling internet- instead of us
discussing promiscuity, let us see which posts received the highest dislikes
and why. It will give the like button a life.
The like button has been an orphan who can be easily manipulated
for any gains. Some have liked burial posts because they are too tired to write
their condolences. If you ask them, their answer is ‘recognition’ of the post. Weird
posts like promiscuity and hanging breasts have lacked a way to engage among
the haters…if they comment they will seem stupid when others see their activities; and liking is not an option.
In a political world voters will dislike as many posts of an
opponent. This will mean that a politician will regulate the likes and dislikes
on a post. They may advocate doing away with the button- politicians are
politicians. Obama will be disliked by radical republicans who see no good in whatever
post. To some, they will confuse which button to click- dislike will be the
confused on.
This may not make Facebook as interactive as such. It will
lower the heavens to the Earth. It has been a good place where all the selfies
and Public Relations have flourished. The ugliest in persons have plastered
themselves pretty yellow. The poorest in spirits have been writing
inspirational quotes for the ‘poorest most’.
Few people get concerned with important posts. Many are
lured by ad verecundiam that fallasizes
that the one in authority may be speaking the right thing. That is why
celebrities and politicians are duplicated responses- You are the best! I doubt
whether the infamous will start receiving dislikes if so there was nothing to
like in their posts.
There may also be a people who will be coed not to express themselves
well in fear of being ‘disliked’. The more contradictory one is, the risky. You will not be a chauvinist and be allowed to scot free- dislikes will bombard you. This
will affect socialization because when people talk without thinking of
consequences, they talk real. That can make us learn a few things. Instead of openness,
there will be under table socialization. It may only take a single post to have
a reputation leveled down to sea level by clicking the upside-down thing.
To me, nirvana is about to end when it comes to social media. There are
people who are not suited for Earth where the rule of the jungle is the golden
path and there may be another invention for them. It may be the start of the end of Facebook.
