An update to about my barber's instagram account. It has been taken down. It's possible the username has been changed. We're not sure at this point if Facebook took it down, but it is no longer communicating with people in the community.
This is the third video in a Smarter Every Day series on social media manipulation.

This is the third video in a series I'm doing on social media manipulation. Facebook is an extremely interesting case to study. They're the largest social media platform in the world and one could argue they've felt the pain of this stuff more than any other platform. I find it to be EXTREMELY interesting that they're transitioning to an ACTIVE position on misinformation as opposed to REACTIVE. I think it's super easy for the public to dismiss what facebook says because of their branding/trust issues.... but regardless of what you think about the company, they are one of the most attacked platforms in the world. Therefore, they're the most experienced people at countering this threat. At times it seems like they're getting their butts kicked, and at others it seems like they're winning. Facebook is not blameless, but directing all of our conversational energy towards the platform itself avoids a major issue, namely the people using the platform to do harm, or to inauthentically promote/discredit something.
These videos should be a standard thing in elementary schools.
people still use Facebook?
To me Facebook is the least credible social media out there. Most of their fact checks are incorrect and are extremely bias. JMO
Well this aged well....
I'm way more worried about Facebook manipulating what I see than I am about fake accounts and campaigns trying to do the same. The answer to bad free speech is more (good) free speech. Giving permission to Facebook to censor things you find offensive or manipulative is going to backfire on you some day when Facebook decides that it doesn't like something YOU'RE saying. Social media companies should focus on giving users better control to choose for themselves what they do or don't want to see.
I love your point about how extremist posts don't have to actually represent the legitimate viewpoint of anyone to be effective, but just need to represent some semblance of truth in order to get both sides ramped up with fear and insecurity. I don't think enough people are aware of that. Awesome series, Destin.
Ironic that Facebook is working to stop online manipulation, while Facebook is actively manipulating users politically, and commercially...
Social Media: the only winning move is not to play
Whatever Facebook, excuse me, Meta is doing to counter fake accounts, it's not working out well. I've had my first Instagram account deleted without explanation nor recourse. And the second attempt has demanded reconfirmation twice in the last 6 months
I dare you to copy and paste this comment as many times as you can and see if RUclips’s algorithm thinks we are both bots
To quote The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: “It is of course well known that careless talk costs lives, but the full scale of the problem is not always

I quit FB 3 years before i quit smoking.
Hah, can't manipulate me when I don't use Facebook
Just found your channel while I was searching RUclips in order to find something that my older brother and my mom could follow, and these 3 videos are by far the most in depth, well thought out and concise of anything else I've ever come across.
Destin, I have been highly impressed with the wisdom with which you have approached this subject. In a highly polarised world, I appreciate your efforts not only to educate, but also to reunite, us all. God bless you!
I've always loved your channel, but after this series, you've earned a Patron. Thanks for making quality content. Keep up the good work
Thanks Dustin. This Manipulating series has been a tremendous learning experience. I really appreciate the attitude you have taken of grace and understanding between us all.
Discovered your channel a few weeks ago and found your videos really fun and informative. Then I found this series. Thank you so much for taking the time and doing the work to help us understand what’s going on and ways to help counter it! So appreciate this series.
