But parts of their actual lives are all tangled up in them.<br/><br/>So don’t make leaving a purity test. Start somewhere. Remove Facebook from your phone and use it only on your laptop, or better still, only on your desktop when you genuinely need it.<br/><br/>STOP POSTING TO META. STOP FEEDING THE TIMELINE.<br/><br/>Move conversations with real friends to your email, text, Signal, phone calls, Mastodon account, or wherever works for you, away from Meta.<br/><br/>TELL PEOPLE WHERE ELSE THEY CAN EASILY FIND YOU.<br/><br/>If you run a business, start putting your email address and/or website URL everywhere you promote your business so Facebook is not your only front door.<br/><br/>Download anything you actually want to keep. Then, when you’re ready, deactivate or delete what you no longer need.<br/><br/>Maybe you keep Messenger for Aunt Doris. Maybe you keep Instagram because your local café apparently believes websites were abolished in 2014.<br/><br/>Fine.<br/><br/>The point isn’t ideological cleanliness. <br/><br/>THE POINT IS REDUCING YOUR DEPENDENCE.<br/><br/>Every conversation you move elsewhere is one conversation Meta no longer owns the doorway to.<br/><br/>YOU DON'T HAVE TO ESCAPE THE META CAGE IN ONE HEROIC LEAP.<br/><br/>Just start opening the door.<br/><br/>#Meta #Facebook #Instagram #SocialMedia #Fediverse #people #DEPENDENCE #Messenger </blockquote> 2026-08-12T09:58:27+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxhkqtskrwkmp2v4xumzntyxpk2r8r92chts90jx3r8cd5r3ra9nczyqf9davmncwkv86u8wse2652hzwuy7k376wef3j2exuln5jx7cvf5vdzvuc About Peter Thiel and JD Vance (and Andreessen, Yarvin and Musk)<br/><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2026/aug/05/journalist-taking-on-tech-fascists-silicon-valley">https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2026/aug/05/journalist-taking-on-tech-fascists-silicon-valley</a><br/>#thiel #vance #uspol #techfascism 2026-08-05T18:13:13+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsy35kgetnyq6da08cycn5lc46tssaggtanutvvjn6h8nwkz6cuccszyqf9davmncwkv86u8wse2652hzwuy7k376wef3j2exuln5jx7cvf53elfsa “Vaporizing a car’s worth of aluminum, other metals, and chemicals in the upper atmosphere, every hour, indefinitely?
