Facebook Considers Dislike Button? | My Opinion

That's right, folks, the creator of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, is considering installing a DISLIKE button. All I have to say is: WHY?! In my personal opinion, I think it's a very bad idea. This installment could only lead to more cyber bullying and trolling. According to Zuckerberg, he stated that the site would have to find a way to make sure it didn't become a way to demean people's posts., but how are you going to control what people do with a DISLIKE post? What is the point of it? It's so negative. Do you really want a list of all the things you DISLIKE on your page? Is that really what you want to focus on? Seeing all the things that irritate you or bring you down isn't going to lift you up and make your day better, it's only going to... keep bringing you down! And can you imagine how you would feel if one of YOUR posts got a dislike? I know I wouldn't like it! I think it can only cause more negativity and more stress. What happened to: If you don't like it, keep scrolling! (?) Why do we choose to focus on the negative? There's already a cyber bullying dilemma, so why are we trying to fan the flames? If you think it is a bad idea, then please speak out about it, too! Let's strive to create a more positive & inspiring world.

Mark Zuckerberg's video post about why they don't have a dislike button on Facebook:

He explains that sometimes clicking a like on something sad doesn't feel comfortable, and
we do need something to express an appropriate emotion, but we need something to do it
in a positive way, and not something that could be misused to demean someone's posts. He
goes on to explain about the positivity issue, as well! I'm so glad he sees it that way, too!
