I wanted to buy something second-hand. Unfortunately, Facebook Marketplace is the shit where I live. So I thought I could quickly register, contact the seller, and delete my account afterwards.

However, I refuse to participate in this insanity. Video selfie my ass, Facebook.

      I miss when it was the default position of everyone online.

      Still though, with the whole damn world going online, in places where anonymity is never expected in the first place, I can see the benefit. I used Facebook marketplace once just to be ripped off.

      My daughter uses an anonymous Facebook account with the name of a cartoon character, she’d just close the account if they pushed her though.

              You mean like circling back to your argument when some people being antisocial by default means other factors causing it can be ignored.
