Is LinkedIn just a place to post blindly naive chit now?

Lmao logged in and saw some dude praising the VA suicide resources. Like 10% of my vet friends have killed themselves. How TF can you praise an op like this lmao. Sheer willful ignorance just to be positive in a contraction way for likes. I swear someone could post "I think the Taliban make a great country" and they'd get swarms of fake faced ass holes supporting ops point with their experience in retail or tech support.

I don't even pay attention to it anymore, keep getting emails saying I have like 34 unread messages and 200 notifications

Feels like just another cancerous social media outlet at this point

It’s no different than any other liberal cesspool social media app like Twitter

Except it’s alarming that these people managed to get degrees

The race for social media 'likes' or approval has enabled losers of society who need validation to just parrot what they think will get them compliments.

Reddit, Twitter, Linkedin it's all the same chit.

I don't see why I get "News Feed" posts on LinkedIn. It's a way to connect with recruiters and companies.

For the most part IMO it's not even that useful.

There is more virtue signaling on Linked in than any other social media platform.

Being in sales, it's a necessary evil, but I've been blocking people left and right. The pseudo sales experts like Brian Burns, most people who put pronouns next to their name, the CEO who filmed himself driving a 15 year old car.

Grew up and was friends with a guy who has been incredibly successful in business. He's a CEO and now posts, "dad advice" and stuff. Dude, I remember when all of us thought you were going to coming out of the closet any day between 1986 -1991. Had to mute him.

Linkedin is the last social media app that I have but it's been so bad since 2020. I work in manufacturing and most owners and execs are conservatives. I see people post things about their products or their factory and then they get attacked in the comments by the liberal army.

I have all notifications turned off now and stripped my profile down to nothing.

It's one big circle jerk and no one dares to step out of line for fear or backlash.

There was a post about, "I finally did it, I adopted him, he's my son now." Good for you, but WTF does that have to do with your career?

It's like ******** now and it makes me rage.
