selenagomez It’s like well log off then lol don’t try to ruin everyone experience

selenagomez I wonder who she is. I wonder who her English professor was.

Social media is a tool..can be used for good or bad..my friends make me laugh my ass off on Facebook. Pick fun friends avoid the depressing ones..c'mon people stop blaming outer sources as your source of joy or sadness!

omaralbusaidy It’s not necessarily about social media;it’s about educating our youth from early age about managing social media usage&interaction& more importantly teaching them about self awareness&self esteem so they don’t compare themselves w anyone&have better understanding of the world.

I don’t trust Facebook anymore! I’m actually talking and visiting with friends instead of Facebook . It’s a lot better!

..and so goes the Facebook smackdown.

What if you want to be more depressed?

Facebooks dead just a good place to store photos

only people who actively use facebook these days are alzheimer boomers

If more Americans ended their membership with Facebook in protest of its greed and reckless disregard for privacy and our elections, then maybe this monster will get the message.

What about Twitter?

FUCK MARK!!

One less source for the doom and gloom news

FB is toast. Just a matter of time. I would never touch a tech company that doesn't do 'real' stuff. Trading data for ad dollars is a flawed Business Model. Of course I am not a billionaire so what do I know?

I deleted my Facebook... I am so happy.

So will cutting out all news cycles that play horrific clips over and over again until you become suicidal.

Twitter is still OK right?

In other words, facebook and snapchat causes depression.

Twitter too-mostly

Twitter for sure!

Please add CNBC, NBC, CNN, CBS and the rest to that list. they all want you to think social media is the problem

Done! ✅✌🏾 FacebookOUT

Maybe learning to control your emotions would be a good start. Children.

NOT the reason 4 decreasing social media. The CIA claims to love it for the data they can collect, & it’s all about them, not us. So why? The cabal wants us depressed. This story isn’t published without a back story. Could it be there is 2 much truth coming out on social media?

Yea. Quit watching NBC and other Misleading Media will also help depression

And twitter

Im deleting my account period

Awesone

I think most people would be happy if top executives of Facebook went to jail for 10 years or more in USA and then went to jail for 10 years plus in Europe. Facebook executives should be hit with fines greater than Market value Facebook has today for privacy invasions, etc

And twitter

Why is Twitter not mentioned?

What about Twitter? And CNBC.

All social media has a negative impact on people time to time. I'm just glad i grew up when people weren't so self absorbed and addicted to likes and shares

'Meat taxes' would save many lives and cut health care costs, study saysIt would drive up the price of your barbecue, but a global 'meat tax' could save 220,000 lives and cut health care bills by $41 billion each year, according to a new study How about the government lets me decide what I want to eat, whether it's healthy or not... I don't need them issuing a tax as a way to essentially make me eat healthier. For the record, I already have a healthy diet, but stuff like this is just flat out silly. While killing 220,000 from eating meat. BlueBoy8000 COULD- lol. Making meat more expensive is just idiotic because a lot of poor people still need it to survive. Some people can’t eat beans and find animal based protein. This isn’t a good idea

Plans for a state-backed pot bank aren't feasible, a study saysA new feasibility study suggests that hopes that California might create a public bank to serve the state’s legal marijuana industry are nothing but a pipe dream. Dig around a little.. I bet this “author” has a agenda. Maybe even a agenda he got a remodeled kitchen for. Same problems in Colorado. Its time for the MaryJane states to stand up to the Feds in the name of States Rights and demand relief in the Fed banking system.
