I think it's still a shameful fact about our society that a garbage company like Meta, which produces nothing of actual value and is deepeinto shitty practices, could be valuable at all, let alone be a tech giant

You’re forgetting how many people’s private information he’s monetized.

In April, Meta explained some of the calculus behind its shifting financials, noting that it was increasing 2026 capital expenditures to between $125 billion and $145 billion.

Personnel costs are a rounding error compared to this shit. If they spend $125B instead of $145B and spent the savings on the 8,000 they just fired, they'd each make $2.5 million.

Same here. I never had a Facebook account but all I know is that the 3 billion (3 fucking billion users!) use it to talk to their family (instead of using a phone), watch pretty pictures, and read fake news. What's the fucking point?
