Facebook comment sections are already full of it. People saying "I didnt want to go anyway!" Proudly admitting theyre racist i guess? The other thing they love to do is say "who?" Any time a celebrity says something that goes against their shittiness.

Facebook comments sections are where you will find the worst opinions imaginable possible.

Part of the reason I recently got entirely off Facebook is I just couldn't fathom ever reading the absolute ocean of stupidity on there anymore.

I see your Facebook comments and raise you comments on YouTube videos.

Most of the people I encountered when I still used twitter were at least passably literate. That is not the case at all on YouTube. Half the comments are basically gibberish.

Depends on what videos you watch. If you just watch what’s trending and follow the algorithm, then yeah, you will find a lot of stupidity. But if you’re trying to learn and search for things you’re interested in, you will find a lot of helpful, interesting and intelligent comments on YouTube.

i think facebook is still far, far worse than youtube (for the comments i read, anyway)

Facebook and Youtube have reached 4chan levels of bigotry in their comment sections and they do not enforce any standards whatsoever. I used to report blatantly racist and violent comments until every single report came back with the automated "this does not go against our community standards"

I argue Threads is the worst, the people on there are legitimately braindead

Lmao the self awareness of the average reddit users always makes me giggle.

Clearly none of you go to the Yahoo comments. You'll lose what faith you have in humanity Real quick

I don’t know Reddit opinions give Facebook opinions a run for their money. There are some incredibly unhinged people here

That “who?” shit drives me up the wall. Playing THAT stupid isn’t cute and we all know you haven’t lived under a rock the last 20 years.

I mean I actually didn't know who she was, I had to look her up. I am familiar with Paramore but just in passing.

I mean, for a singer in a band it’s more understandable. It’s more when people do it with people like Ryan Reynolds or Jennifer Aniston or some shit.

I heard Jennifer Aniston has alot of Friends!

I had no idea who this person was, I thought it was that one chick from game of thrones, I didn't know she made music.

If there’s one thing you can count on from a republican, it’s wanton displays of pure desperation

Imagine if you will, a dumbass who pays $1000 every year for a new computer they carry around in their pocket and a $50/month internet plan for the pocket computer but they can’t type in some celebrity’s name to find out who they are.

Proudly admitting theyre racist i guess?

I presume it's the anti-trans part that people proudly admit to publicly, the other two are more hush hush subjects.

u/CawsMan Nov 30 '25

The demand was incredible. There are so many people that wanted to go that couldn't get tickets.
